Stories to Watch: 2/24/12

Cleared up some snow earlier today. It was wet, heavy stuff — the kind that makes great snowmen but sucks to shovel. I should sleep well tonight. I try to think of it as good cardio. Now here’s the news…


A nice catch by one of my web buddies Lordrag: Jeb Bush says he “used to be a conservative.”


Regular fella Mitt Romney brags that he owns four cars.


Rick Santorum’s doing better with female voters than most would’ve predicted. The most likely explanation; these ladies don’t know Rick very well.


Nate Silver says that Romney will probably win Michigan.


Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren both write op-eds in the Boston Globe. The subject is contraception coverage and Brown takes the losing argument. Even severely conservative and severely Catholic Pat Buchanan thinks the GOP is playing a losing hand.


Consumer confidence continues to rise, so gas prices aren’t having that much of an effect so far.


Finally, the Dutch are none too happy with Rick Santorum. People who are running for president should probably avoiding sparking international incidents.

    Energy Fuels Inc. Plans Uranium Mine on Havasupai Land 15 Miles from Grand Canyon South Rim
    from Censored News

    Energy Fuels Inc., the Toronto-based company digging the mine, have already dug 120 feet down what they hope will be a 1600 foot shaft. If the mine starts extracting uranium, it will expose residents and visitors to “low-level” radiation along Hwy 64. So called “low-level” radiation poisons air, waters, and soils for billions of years, causing cancers, birth defects, and other health problems. Even worse, Arizona’s environmental and haulage regulations fail to protect the public from these dangers.
