BRILLIANT WRITER AGHAST AT ELECTION CYCLE

OBAMA PANIC- (?) Andrew, have an Earl Grey


"Coulter accuses Newsweek of working for al Qaeda; Drudge links to a hysterical liberal; a trivial gaffe gets major play. He really is a threat, isn't he?" -Andrew Sullivan, the Daily Dish


"Coulter accuses Newsweek of working for Al Qaeda" (shes done that before); "Drudge links to hysterical liberal" (he used to link to Dowd before the Times got cheap-Times Select-4.95 per article-I'm good thanks!) "Trivial gaffe gets major play." (Biden's gaffe got attention and no one even thinks he's a serious candidate.)


Shock and Awe.

THIS IS WHY THEY CAN'T BE TRUSTED WITH NATIONAL SECURITY

Senior House Republicans are complaining about Democrats' plans to divert "scarce" intelligence funds to study global warming. The House next week will consider the Democrat-crafted Intelligence Authorization bill, which includes a provision directing an assessment of the effects that climate change has on national security. -Washington Times

NOT A JOKE!!!!!

HOLIDAY IN HELL- Why Club Med should hold off on Kurdistan

Last summer, you may have been among the astonished viewers of American television who were treated to a series of commercials from a group calling itself "Kurdistan—The Other Iraq." These rather touching and artless little spots (theotheriraq.com) urged you to consider investing in business, and even made you ponder taking your vacation, in the country's three northern provinces.
- Christopher Hitchens, from "Holiday in Iraq" Vanity Fair


An Amnesty International spokesman in London said they receive frequent reports of honour crimes from Iraq – particularly in the predominantly Kurdish north.
Most victims are women and girls who are considered by male relatives to have shamed their families by immoral behaviour.
Kurdish authorities have introduced reforms outlawing honour killings, but have failed to investigate them or prosecute suspects, added the Amnesty spokesman. -Daily Mail courtesy www.drudgereport.com

GIRL GETS STONED TO DEATH IN IRAQ

Aren't Arabs fun folk. There is a video going around the net of a girl being stoned in Kurdistan for dating a Sunni. Christopher Hitchens keeps telling us how nice it is there and how he vacations there. The problem is "Islam" more than it was "Saddam." They call it an "honor killing." At this point I guess calling an A-bomb a "final solution" wouldn't be justified.

CLASH OF THE "SPITE-AN'S"

It's beginning to feel like that magical time here in Narnia when nearly half of our "legal" citizens reep the rewards of the "Voting Rights Act" and get to choose between two competing visions for the country: regrettably bad and horribly worse. One group of people (Democrats) want to treat Al Qaeda like an advocacy group and 9/11 like a protest that went too far. The other group of people (Republicans) have a tendecy to believe that Jesus chooses their breakfast cereal for them. Cheerios represent "wholeness" and the "circle of life" whereas Count Chocula is a no go for obvious reasons. (The count is pro choice.) For those like myself who thrive on the exchange of ideas and cleverly worded "slurs" every day in this campaign will be a blessing! It is not entirely fair to describe these two political parties by mocking their most extreme supporters but extremism much like "sex" and "fear" sells and motivates. In watching the Democratic and Republican debates I had the recurring thought: are dictatorships that bad? They've done wonders for the major league baseball. I am going to post regularly and include "serious debate topics" like the war, the corruption and politization of religion, the expansion of failed social programs, the culture war update: the traditional values coalition is "surging" to counter the ACLU, and much much more. I will also publish the opinions of "others" so long as they are "white-land owning males," which is only right if you think about it, but why think about it when someone else can think for you! It's America stupid! What a year it will be.
