Take that, Andromeda

Fox News reports that for decades, astronomers thought when it came to the major galaxies in Earth's cosmic neighborhood, our Milky Way was a weak sister to the larger Andromeda. Not anymore.  The Milky Way is considerably larger, bulkier and spinning faster than astronomers once thought.  It is, in fact,  Andromeda's equal.

Scientists mapped the Milky Way in a more detailed, three-dimensional way and found that it's 15 percent larger in breadth. More important, it's denser, with 50 percent more mass, which is like weight.

The new findings were presented Monday at the American Astronomical Society's convention in Long Beach, Calif.

What isn't reported is how the MSM and the liberals will spin this.  I predict one of two ways:

They will say that we are putting on weight as a galaxy, and must go on a diet.  A vegetarian, fat free, low cholesterol diet, of course.  Only then will the galaxy be put back in it's place.

Or they will say, that we were undersized because of Reagan/Bush 41/W, and that Obama is now putting things right.  Without the election of Barack Obama, our galaxy would still be undersized and backwards and it would be a Right Wing, God-Fearing, Gun Toting, backwater of a galaxy.

I guess we'll see.
