Clown Show Marches On

11th circuit refuses to hear case en banc, and Jeb Bush has a "renowned neurologist" who has come up with a different diagnosis, and now the Florida State Senate is supposed to do something, though I didn't figure out what.

Sadly, the "renowned neurologist" wasn't the one who has been making all of the Fox News rounds and making a bunch of fools look even more foolish than usual. The guy has been going around telling people he's a "Nobel Prize Nominee" for medicine, because a very silly congressman nominated him. But, it gets funnier.

The congressman actually wrote to nominate him for a "Nobel Peace Prize in Medicine," which doesn't, you know, exist. And, okay, we'll cut him some slack and say that what he meant was Nobel Prize in Medicine. But, said member isn't eligible to nominate anyone for the Medicine prize.
