PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THESE FOR CENTURIES, THOUGH THEY WEREN’T ALWAYS BELIEVED: Giant Ice Meteors Falling From The Sky. I think the connection to “climate change” here is rather sketchy, though.

FROM WRONG-HOUSE RAIDS TO WRONG-CAR RAIDS: SWAT Team Rams Wrong Man’s Car. “Even after officers realized that he was not the suspect, he said, they kept him in handcuffs for half an hour while they questioned him and ran a warrant check that came up with nothing. Then they let him go.”

HOW BAD IS IT? WELL, OBAMA’S LOST EUGENE ROBINSON:

The Obama administration has no business rummaging through journalists’ phone records, perusing their e-mails and tracking their movements in an attempt to keep them from gathering news. This heavy-handed business isn’t chilling, it’s just plain cold. . . .The unwarranted snooping, which was revealed last week, would be troubling enough if it were an isolated incident. But it is part of a pattern that threatens to redefine investigative reporting as criminal behavior.

Welcome to the party, Eugene. But some of us have been saying this for a while.

And note that neither George W. Bush nor Dick Cheney ever did anything like this. That was left to The Lightbringer.

UPDATE: If the press wants to strike back, just start covering Obama — on everything — the way you would if he were a Republican President. #Toast.
