In May  2007, Pelosi invested in T. Boone Picken’s clean energy fuels corp., CLNE, which is the sole sponsor of a proposal in California to funnel $5 billion in state funds and $5 billion in Federal funds to this corporation which will indirectly help them create a giant wind farm in the Texas panhandle. Follow the money. (M. Malkin blog info)

Oh man, I'm not sure the little one-week Georgia fiasco nets Putin the Gold in this event.  I'd probably go gold to China, silver to the U.S. and bronze to Russia.

The funniest thing I heard all week:

Speaking to reporters about the situation in Georgia, Sen. John McCain denounced the aggressive posture of Russia by claiming that:"in the 21st century nations don't invade other nations."

Ha ha!  Gets me every time.

Joan lifted this quote directly for the #Don't Go Movement website (or from another of the many sources Eric Odom may have used.)

I could give Joan a bit of credit for creative thought with "Follow the money," but on the topic of Pickens-Pelosi-CLNE-Prop 10, this quote belongs to Michelle Malkin. (My apologies for forcing the reading to get all the way to page 2.)

Gordy, didn't you issue a recent proclamation about this practice?

Yes, I should have said where I cut and pasted it. It wasn't meant to be my comments but rather an FYI about the political cartoon. Still, I needed to attribute it.

McCain's comment about not invading other nations was a face-palm inducing one for sure.  Even his attempt to qualify the statement shortly afterwards seemed to fall short of making any sense.  While everyone is jumping on the contradiction it implies with Iraq, his statement would even include Afghanistan.  Just a dumb comment by him no matter how you slice it.  On a related note, I have to disagree with the folks trying to equate the Iraq and Georgia situations as our involvement in Iraq was predicated on violations of a ceasefire agreement in response to their invasion of a sovereign nation.  But for folks who don't believe that had anything to do with decision, I can see how they can equate the two... even if I think they're wrong.

OK, those are funny.  Especially the DNA cartoon, which harkens back to the good ol' days of phrenology.
