The bastards...
Respectful Insolence
"A statement of fact cannot be insolent." The miscellaneous ramblings of a surgeon/scientist on medicine, quackery, science, pseudoscience, history, and pseudohistory (and anything else that interests him)
Who (or what) is Orac?
Orac is the nom de blog of a (not so) humble pseudonymous surgeon/scientist with an ego just big enough to delude himself that someone, somewhere might actually give a rodent's posterior about his miscellaneous verbal meanderings, but just barely small enough to admit to himself that few will. (Continued here, along with a DISCLAIMER that you should read before reading any medical discussions here.)
Orac's old Blog is archived at Archived Insolence.

You can tell this is fake. The box in the upper-left that says "All the news that's fit to print" should read "All the news that fits, we print."

"All the news that fits, we print"
that would apply to Fox News or Conservapedia.

If McCain is four more years of Bush, then this proves that Palin is four more years of Cheney's bad aim.

And when they came for Bullwinkle, I said nothing because I was not a Moose.
But my Cousin Helgi was bitten by a Moose once. . .
