Just back from the states where the Obamatrons are conducting an early coronation of The One. Some elite academics are calling for Bush to step aside on Nov. 5th so the revolution can proceed apace. The latest issue of Vogue sports a photo spread of “Vice President Biden’s” family, even though should Senator Biden and The One win the election he’s not VP until sworn in sometime in January.

The science is still settled, the debate is still over and now, just in time for the apocalypse, the Messiah has arrived. How convenient is that?
