Hard line conservatives make a lot of claims against liberals: They promote class warfare, they’re trying to keep you poor, they’re the more racist party. These are all well and good, if you’re only looking at rhetoric. Surely, if tax cuts are evenly spread among all payers, saying it’s a cut for [...]

After reading about some of the rumors about a Bush pull out from Iraq next year, I’ve been doing some thinking. What’s the best plan? How do we get out of this?
It seems like we are a stablizing factor in Iraq right now, as well as a factor in the instability. [...]

Out of another dimension comes this bizarre libel suit threat against Atrios for calling Luskin a stalker with regards to Paul Krugman. The blogosphere is already up in arms about this, and it’s a sad day for respectable right-wingers everywhere (all 18 of you). The story can be found on Atrios’s blog and [...]

Selections aren’t so hot this week, but the best has to be LGF Watch. Anyone that can view that site regularly has my vote.

Eye witness Bagdhad
I won’t quote anything, just go read it. Another interesting article by Robert Fisk.
And on a side note, I’m now a member of the League of Liberals.

So, most people who read this blog (about 5 of you) won’t know much about this (aside from people from UM who wander in here). I don’t know that much, but enough. Here’s the deal:
There’s this guy named Varg Vierknes, a Norwegian, who was in a Black Metal band called Burzum. He’s [...]

The Crown - Possessed 13
Excellent Death-Thrash. It seems to be slower than Crowned in Terror, and certainly slower than Deathrace King, but a great cd. What can I say? This is some of my favorite type of music, and it’s awesome.
Pink Floyd - The Wall
What can you say about Pink Floyd that [...]

So maybe this isn’t the best time for an introspective post, but here goes anyway, hopefully it’s coherent.
