TEN QUESTIONS for our future robot overlords.

I say, do not rage against the machine. Embrace the machine!

WELL, GOOD: Areas Hit Hard by Swine Flu in Spring See Little Now.

HOW ABOUT A Congressional “Clawback” for Taxpayers? “Obama’s pay czar proposes taking back monies already legally paid to executives. Why not try the same thing on congressmen?”

GOOD GRIEF: Cross-Dressing Escort Registered by ACORN Imprisoned for Voter Fraud, ACORN Probe Continues in Ohio. “ACORN just can’t seem to stay away from hookers. The activist group, which has long worked with criminals as it preys on the weak and the troubled, is on the verge of yet another public relations catastrophe. That’s because a cross-dressing Ohio male escort whom ACORN registered multiple times to vote was convicted of full-fledged vote fraud in addition to the lesser crime of voter registration fraud. A spokesman for Cleveland prosecutor Bill Mason (an elected Democrat) confirmed yesterday that a local investigation of ACORN remains wide open.”

SIDE EFFECTS: Taking the pill for past 40 years ‘has put women off masculine men’. “Scientists say the hormones in the oral contraceptive suppress a woman’s interest in masculine men and make boyish men more attractive. Although the change occurs for just a few days each month, it may have been highly influential since use of the Pill began more than 40 years ago. . . . The changing fashions for film stars appear to show a shift from masculine men in the 1950s – before the advent of the Pill – to more baby-faced stars today.” I wonder how it affects voting . . . .

As long as it’s got the right attitude.

WHAT COULD GO WRONG? Sending criminals door-to-door. But I thought Census had cut its ties with ACORN . . . .

CORZINE: I may be inept and corrupt, but you’re fat. In New Jersey, this might work . . . .

UPDATE: Heh: “Democratic incumbent Jon Corzine is outspending Republican Chris Christie 3 to 1 in an effort to persuade voters he’s the better choice to control spending and manage the state’s budget.”
