But seriously, all the consternation in the media about Tiger being in some sort of slump is dumb. (I don’t mean to say that anyone here is engaging in that.)

He’ll be back. Remember 2004-ish, when he wasn’t doing so hot? He hadn’t won a major in two years. What happened? Laser show. Relax. Specifically, he made top 5 in ten of the next twelve majors, winning five of them. (Never mind that one where he missed the cut.) He tied for 4th at the Masters and U.S. Open this year, so he’s clearly still Really Good At Golf.

I think these people are making a very important statement. And that statement is, “Hey, everyone, I don’t understand what fungible means!”

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

The legislators who supported this law don’t care if it stands. They’ve already scored their political points. Brace for speeches in the next election accusing Democrats of taking jobs away from Real Americans and giving them to brown people. They even score a bonus by getting to blame “liberal judges” for violating the “will of the people”!

Yeah. This is a good plan.

A month ago, Virginia passed a law forbidding health insurance mandates. So did Idaho. Similar measures are on the ballots for voter approval in Arizona and Florida.

Proponents of these bills are flying their efforts under the banner of  the Tenth Amendment, claiming to be defenders of  the Constitution. They seem to have trouble remembering the supremacy clause in Article VI, though.

This is really bizarre. I thought we more or less settled this whole nullification issue back when Andrew Jackson was president. Sure, after that whole episode, there was still some lingering doubt… but my understanding is that there was a thing from 1861-1865 that cleared it all up, from a legal standpoint.

Mr. Grimes, who receives Social Security, has filled the back seat of his Mercury Grand Marquis with the literature of the movement, including Glenn Beck’s “Arguing With Idiots” and Frederic Bastiat’s “The Law,” which denounces public benefits as “false philanthropy.”

“If you quit giving people that stuff, they would figure out how to do it on their own,” Mr. Grimes said.

I assume he’ll figure out how to do it any day now.

This naturally supports Jon Stewart’s theory of why crazy points of view dominate the news:

People that have ideology, people that believe, that is their lives. The people that went down to Florida and taped their mouths shut and wrote ‘LIFE’ on them don’t have shit to do.
