Wisdom from Time Cube

I think maybe I should pull a Jefferson Bible on Time Cube.


here's a starter quote:
"education"
inflicts a dog brain upon
Students - ability to be
taught servitude - but
an inability to ever think
opposite of brainwashing
and indoctrination - very
unlikely to ever recover
to acknowledge

CNN covers up Obama's delegate lead?

Despite a loss in California, and despite Hillary Clinton's advantage in the race for "super delegates" (or as I call them, the approval of the establishment), Barack Obama has taken the lead in terms of delegates earned. Here's the Politico article on it from this morning at about 8AM Pacific. MSNBC reported soon afterwards, and has updated its frontpage listing as pictured here:




Of course, this was big news in the Obama mailing lists. In fact, it was actually news to many CNN-only friends of mine, just ten minutes ago -- a full six hours since Obama took the lead, CNN.com still looked like this:



Notice the "updated 1 minute ago" line... Now it's pretty well-documented time is a precious piece of this race. With every week that has gone by since December, Obama has gained ground on Clinton. For supporters of Clinton, who is practically an incumbent, the remaining primaries can't come soon enough, whereas Obamans are hoping their candidate has time to get his new and inspiring message across to challenge the establishment.

As far as I can tell, CNN.com's slow play on updating their page can only be interpreted as an attempt to buy Clinton one more day with "frontrunner" status.

Update: Now, at 3:02PM pacific, CNN (the TV program) is still talking about how Clinton has more delegates. It is still being spun as a "he won more states, she won more delegates" situation and they are still citing the numbers from some 7 hours ago.
