Just before the Sask NDP leadership campaign started, I compared a variety of social media metrics for each of the potential candidates. Now that we’re a couple months into things, I thought I’d revisit this idea but with a twist. Instead of looking up all of the numbers (and how they’ve changed) for each candidate […]
Penn Jillette with a great monologue/rant about various aspects of religion & politics and where they intersect – from how most “Christians” have united under a single banner in the last 40 years at the expense of early atheists like Mark Twain to the growing influence of non-believers in politics plus Mitt Romney’s magic underwear […]
