I guess “post-racial America” is not yet realized, despite Scalia’s opinion.

I was going to say “a taste of honey is worse than none at all.” but in this case it isn’t true. Half a tbogg is better than none.

The tailings are not a problem. They are less radioactive than the original uranium ore from which much of the uranium has been removed, so we will be reducing the amount of radioactive material underground.
There are a lot of problems with uranium mining, but reburying the tailings is not one of them.

cobernicus commented on the blog post NOM tries give ‘study’ some credibility and fails miserably
Point taken. I have the article and the only identification for Allen is his university post. Are you saying that everyone who serves as an official of an organization with particular positions must identify him/herself in all scholarly publications? This is a scientific study in a refereed journal. If there is obvious bias, the editors should flag or reject the article.
Note that I am a supporting member of HRC and find the contents of the paper objectionable. I would hope that you, or someone else knowledgeable in field, will discredit it on its merits.

I think your “guilt by association” argument is weak and unfair. Would you agree with someone who asserted that that any paper by a board member of, say, the HRC was automatically biased?
This paper and the one it is attempting to refute were published in the same refereed journal. The analysis may be biased or wrong, but you will need a better reason to reject it.
Let’s try to keep up the liberal tradition of living in a fact-based world.

cobernicus wrote a new diary post: What Obama could have said about Romney’s tax plan
President Obama could have made a very simple case about Romney’s tax plan, as follows: Gov. Romney, you have been specific about some parts of your tax plan, but not others. For example, you have called for a 20% reduction in tax rates across the board, which, all sources agree, would in itself decrease income [...]

As despicable as the group may be, I do not think one should consider the owner’s personal donations to it to be a reflection of the corporation. Free speech still matters.

cobernicus commented on the blog post God Finally Answers Focus on the Family’s Prayer For Rain
To those steeped in Biblical matters, the name of the storm, Isaac, has special significance. God spoke directly to Abraham, as he has done recently to Reps. Backman and Akin, and told him to sacrifice Isaac. Then SHE CHANGED HER MIND!!!
As God [allegedly] said to Moses: “All prayers shall be answered ………… but NO is also an answer.”
