If Obama doesn't care about the deaths of babies born alive in Chicago after failed abortions, why does he pretend to care about kids in Syria? The Balls On This F'n Guy Ace rightly excoriated President Obama's caricature of the right as people who just want to bomb all the things, but let's pay a little visit to his appeal to the left in last night's speech. And so to my friends on the right, I ask you to reconcile your commitment to America's military might with a failure to act when a cause is so plainly just. To my friends on the left, I ask you to reconcile your belief in freedom and dignity for all people with those images of children writhing in pain and going still on a cold hospital floor, for sometimes resolutions and statements of condemnation are simply not enough. (emphasis added) Really, Barack Obama. Really? Because the Obama I know couldn't give two shits about children dying on cold hospital floors ... or in hospital utility rooms, anyway. HANNITY: You tell the story -- a hard-wrenching story about a about a down syndrome baby you found. STANEK: Yes. HANNITY: . that was living, that had been abandoned in the soiled utility room at the hospital that you ended up cradling and rocking and holding for the 45 minutes that this baby lived. Tell us that story. STANEK: One night a nursing coworker was taking a little baby boy who had been aborted alive at -- between 21 and 22 weeks because he had down syndrome to our soiled utility room to die because his parents didn't want to hold him, and she didn't have time to hold him that night, and when she told me what she was doing, I couldn't bear the thought of this suffering child dying alone, and so I did cradle and rock him for the 45 minutes that he lived. State Senator Barack Obama had the chance to act on this, but when the time came he voted "present" on Illinois' Born Alive Infant Protection Act. Yet now, when he needs to tug at heartstrings to get his own ass out of the crack his mouth put him into, he's all For the Children. Give me a break. ace.mu.nu

Hey koan, are engineers are smarter than "scientists" or just not as much on the dole? machinedesign.com The politics of engineers Oct. 16, 2012 Stephen Mraz \| Machine Design Engineers tend to view themselves as much less liberal and slightly more conservative than the general public, according to a recent survey of over 1,200 readers of MACHINE DESIGN and Electronic Design magazines. The same survey also found that engineers say they are more likely to be Republican (42.1%) or Independent (33.7%) voters, as opposed to Democrats (14.5%)........................
