Regarding the West, TX industrial incident (+): Texas Republicans are getting the society they voted for. All we hear about when it comes to any kind of regulation or enforcement of existing laws on businesses is "job-killing regulations". How about "life-saving regulations"? Or do they seriously prefer people-killing explosions to job-killing regulations?

(+) I am having a hard time calling it an accident, when it is so easily preventable.

There's a rant over the fold.

Hi there. Long time reader, first time diarist. I keep planning on starting my series of Right-Wing Children's Book Reviews, based on the birthday presents my crazy Republican in-laws get for my son, like this and this (links go to Amazon, for children's books written by relatives of recent Republican politicians), but there never seems to be enough time. So instead, my first diary will be the following:

I have this theory about Romney's tax returns. We're all getting really worked up about them. What could he be hiding? It's natural to speculate -- as partisans, we are all hoping for something really damaging in there (as if being an out-of-touch super rich guy who reminds everyone in the middle class of the guy that laid them off isn't damaging enough).

So here's the theory. I'm putting it below the fold, so you will have to do one more click than you otherwise would -- I'm mean that way.
