And, if it makes any difference, I was for the republican governorship candidate (Crist) this election. I don’t often support Republicans but sometimes you have to go for the right candidate and not the right party. Don’t ever let it be said, I’m so stubborn I won’t vote for the other team. And how is […]
Another bad day — at least it was for normal people everywhere. It’s stories like this that make you think genocide isn’t the worst idea ever. How on earth can someone think blowing ten airplanes full of innocent people out of the sky is a smashing-good idea? What is the mind-set for that? How can […]
Our “President” continues to insist global warming doesn’t exist. Yet this headline from today says otherwise. Melting ice threatens sea-level rise, shrunken polar glaciers, temps at 130,000-year highsExcerpt From Associated Press March 23, 2006 WASHINGTON – Already the Earth is shaking beneath melting ice as rising temperatures threaten to shrink polar glaciers and raise sea […]
I’ve decided to make a serious post about a controversial topic. I’ve done that before in my Why Led Zeppelin Sucks thread. This one’s a bit more serious than that one. Intelligent Design is anything but. I want to state that as my opinion clearly and for the record. There is absolutely, unequivocally no intelligence […]
Actor/writer Steve Martin on The Huffington Post , took a satirical view of the recent shooting by our vice-dunderhead and bumberclod, Dick(less) Cheney. “Vice President Dick Cheney, while hunting wild geese in the Rose Garden, accidentally shot President Bush twice, once in the heart and once in the head. ‘I didn’t really shoot the President […]
The headline is only a bit misleading. He’s always scared me because he has neither a conscience or a soul. However, his latest gambit, surveillance of all Americans without due process required by law is just the final straw in a mountain of straws. From the AP story you’ve all read “President Bush has acknowledged […]
Today I was planning on writing a tirade on the much maligned — and rightfully so — Patriot Act. Nobody seems to be willing to take any sort of stand on creating a balance between Security and Stupidity. I like my privacy, and while I really don’t care if anyone gets a list of what […]
First, we have Matt Deatherage’s blog post about Bush’s service record. Originally CBS was accused of forging the documents. Only, well, they weren’t forged. I don’t want to steal Matt’s blogging efforts, so go here to read it. I am never above a shot at Bush either so here’s a quick (old) joke before I […]
Oh boy, here we go again*. I am getting tired of exploding trains. Another series of bombs went off in London this morning. This time there were no fatalities and only one injury, not apparently serious. One was a ‘bomb and run’ where the bomber tossed a rucksack inside a tube train as the doors […]
First, and foremost, my thoughts are with those in London who are reeling from the terrorist attack today 7-7. It is truly a tragedy and I’m sorry any human being has to go through that sort of ordeal. The only solace is that it could have been much, much worse. Those that have perpetrated this […]
