Apparently there's a chiropracter named Billy Sticker running for President. His platform:
My platform:
- To increase your patient count by 200% during my first term
- To increase your income by 200%
- Pass legislation designating Chiropractic the Official Health Care of America
- Reduce our dependency on pharmaceuticals (because Chiropractic would be the official health care!)
He even has his own video coverage:
Say it ain't so! A woo-meister for President. That'd be a step down even from our current President! It's even worse than that, though. He's apparently a guy who sells marketing plans to other chiropractors to help them increase their profits! Indeed, his entire website is called Chiropractic Marketing University, and if there's one thing worse than chiropractic woo it's chiropractic business woo.
It's a joke, right? Talk about my breathing a sigh of relief!

While I am on vacation, I'm reprinting a number of "Classic Insolence" posts to keep the blog active while I'm gone. (It also has the salutory effect of allowing me to move some of my favorite posts from the old blog over to the new blog, and I'm guessing that quite a few of my readers have…
Let's face it, energy woo can get boring. It's always "resonance this" and "vibration that," to the point that it all starts to sound the same. Such is the reason that I've become somewhat reluctant to take on more energy woo for Your Friday Dose of Woo. It takes a truly bizarre bit of energy woo…
Not too long ago, I posted a rather amusing little video called Immunize! One line in the song that amused me went something like this:
Don't give Chuck Norris shots!
That'd be dim.

Vaccines need him?
Actually, not too surprisingly, it turns out that the word "dim" should…

Not the first woo-meister - don't forget John Hagelin and the Natural Law Party in 1992, 1996, and 2000.
She-Liger, I warned you once, and I told you I wouldn't warn you again.
Goodbye.
thanks for the publicity. If you watch the video, it is a joke. After the video is over, it allows you to customize the video to put anyone's name there.
It is a viral campaign promoting a social networking site. If you believed it...they did a good job.
