Blogger Overload: There is so much bad stuff going down today that there aren't enough hours in the day to rant about them. So I'll just present the headlines:

• Bush pushes 'Faith-based' Initiative
• Smallpox Shots Will Start Soon
• North Korea to Reopen Nuclear Plant Over Oil Cutoff by U.S.
• 5 Unarmed Palestinians Killed by Israelis in Gaza Strip
• Retail Sales in November at Highest Level in 3 Months
• And there's still that Iraq thing, that Homeland Security Thing, that Total Information Awareness thing, the Shadow Government thing, the Yucca Mountain thing, the water in California thing, the unlawful combatant thing, the global warming thing, the diamond thing, the GMO thing, etc., etc., etc.
