Anomalous Data - Bring back the OTA!

If we could undo just one part of the legacy of The Heritage Foundation's Contract on America, and Newt Gingrich's "Republican Revolution"...this would be the one I would root for:

Because the other things that would need to be changed would follow soon after. Evidence-based policy is good policy. And no, I'm not saying we should have a technocracy. I'm just saying that if you are making a decision based on ideology in the face of scientific evidence, then THAT should be clear.

Completely non-academic observation, but doesn't he kinda resemble Mr. Rogers?

Maybe. But really, there's NOBODY like Mr. Rogers. Sigh...I miss Mr. Rogers.

LOL! My dad sent me that one a long time ago. Someone also once told me that they had heard "on a nes program" that Mr. Rogers was a convicted pedophile. I actully wanted to slap them upside the head over that...but settled for a verbal rebuke. What is it about genuinly good people that makes someone want to turn them into some sort or monster or at least dangerous killing machine?
