TCTI: Too Crazy Too Ignore
 Dave Ross

Move on? Not so fast!

Last March, Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio said he had the smoking gun behind Barack Obama's birth certificate.

"Probable cause exists that forgery and fraud may have been committed," said Arpaio.

The sheriff's lead investigator Mike Zullo, was himself horrified by what he found.

"Oh my God. Nobody wants to think this is happening in their country," said Zullo.

Zullo even released an e-book on the case, selling for $10, detailing how it was done and 1,200 people petitioned Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett, who launched his own investigation.

When a reporter asked: If you don't get an answer from Hawaii in time, will you remove the president from the ballott?

Bennett said: That's possible.

But yesterday, Hawaii again supplied the evidence and the Secretary of State backed down.

"They verified that they had the certificate and I think we all should move on."

Except now, Obama supporters have some demands of their own, including an online petition asking Bennett to look into whether Mitt Romney is a unicorn.

Yes, a petition signed by more than ten times as many people as e-mailed about the birth certificate. Bennett dismisses this as ridiculous:

"That's ridiculous," said Bennett.

But, if you go to leftaction.com there's a very clear computer image of a certain Republican candidate with a bright blue horn.

It's probably fraudulent, although, if he WAS a unicorn, that would pretty much prove he never could've hazed anybody, because he would've been too busy spreading rainbows.

    In the Farleigh Dickinson survey, earlier this year, they discovered that people who listen to openly biased news broadcasts are less factually informed than people who listen to no news broadcasts at all. May have something to do with the refusal of some folks to let go of the "birther" controversy.

    In the survey, people were asked four questions about current events. People who reported watching "no news at all" correctly answered an average of 1.28 of the questions.

    People who got all of their news from FOX answered 1.08 questions correctly, and people who got all of their news from MSNBC did only slightly better at 1.23. Statistically, those groups would have been more factually informed if they watched no news at all.

    Among those who listed "only CNN" as their source for news, the average of correct answers to the four questions was 1.33. For listeners to "just talk radio", the average improved to just 1.57. Respondents who reported getting all of their news from The Daily Show knew, on average, the answers to 1.62 of the factual questions about current events. NPR listeners scored the best in the survey, but still relatively poorly. NPR listeners had correct answers to only 1.97 of the four factual questions, still wrong more than 50% of the time.

    For Delta, who wants to know how much his head weighs....

    Human heads typically weigh between 8 and 12 pounds, depending upon the size of the person in question. The average brain weighs about 3.5 pounds, the rest is bone,sensory organs, and other tissue.

    To determine the weight of your own head, you could cut if off and weigh it. Not advised, it would be difficult to reattach and who knows, you might miss it once it's gone.

    So, here's the "way" to figure out what your head weighs.

    1. Fill a bathtub with water, all the way to the top of the tub. Absolutely as much as it can hold without overflowing. Climb in, immersing your entire body *except* your head.

    2.Mop up the mess.

    3. Carefully measure and record the amount of water needed to refill the tub to where it once again is absolutely as full as it can be without overflowing.

    4. Drain the tub.

    5. Fill a large bucket with water. All the way to the top, as much as it can possibly hold without overflowing. Stick your entire head into the bucket.

    6. Remember to pull you head out (of the bucket, that is)

    7. Carefully measure and record the amount of water required to refill the bucket to the point where it is once again as full as it can be without overflowing.

    8. Determine relative displacements. Compare the amount required to refill the bucket to the total amount required to refill both the tub and the bucket. That will calculate that percentage of your total body weight represented by your head.

    9. Weigh yourself on a scale, apply the percentage calculated in step 8, and you will know how much your head weighs. :-)

    Or you can just chop off a head and throw the sucker on a scale.

    I haven't looked into the "study" you reference, but I suspect there is shennagins played with either the question or the analysis. I can say that unbiasedly because I don't watch any TV news, and I use tons of sources from all spectrums for what I read news wise. Additionally, and yes this is ancedotal, I've yet to meet someone in person who gets their news from John Stewart that had a clue about much of anything...other than the street price of various drugs and what was the hottest new band.
