Tom Friedman: "Suck On This"

Five years later (ten FUs!) Tom Friedman is still an idiot.

How will Obama end the war on drugs?

So Barack Obama's favorite tv show is The Wire. He was a community organizer in Chicago in the 1980s. And he's black. So it's a safe bet that he thinks the war on drugs is bad policy. But what is President Obama going to do about it? My guess is he's got a brilliant triple bank shot plan that will end it without anyone knowing it. Maybe it'll be some provision tied to health care reform. I don't know what he'll try but
I'm 100% sure he won't chicken out.

In Defense of Arugula

So Newsweek had a moronic cover about Obama, beer, and arugula last week. Okay, it wasn't really about beer or arugula. Or Obama really. It was about the media, and how the media are all a bunch of idiots. They convinced me.



Anyway, arugula is delicious. I prefer it to spinach for salads. It's great instead of lettuce on a sandwich. In Britain they call it rocket. And it goes great with a nice beer.
