The guy can write.

Do I need to say more?

A Just and Nobel War

The Nobel* season is upon us, and the game this year is to tie every prizewinner into an implicit slam against the Bush administration and/or proof that every major institution on the planet is controlled by a cabal of lefties that won't let Tom Clancy or the writers of CSI Miami take their justly deserved place among the ancient gods. Works for me...

See, I just don't understand this. Rightwingers make it a point to be both anti-science and anti-intellectual, so it hardly takes an, er, rocket scientist to figure out why righties don't typically win the awards. What, did they really think the Discovery Institute was in the running this year, for their condemnation of every major scientific advancement of the last four hundred years in favor of the theory that Adam and Eve milked dinosaurs and sold the resulting DinoCheese in Cain's chain of God*Mart retail outlets?

"Well, this year we were going to give the award to these guys whose work made possible the complete mapping of the human genome, but these other guys have some really good artists' renderings of Noah waving at a stegosaurus. So let's call it a draw."

...

Go. Here.

Read. Now.

Sure he gives the whole fucking “Robotic Death Lasers and peeping ‘fridge” Liberal Secret Plot away. And he doesn’t cuss quite enough for my tastes, but these are mere quibbles.

Scoot.
