The Oscars

That was monotonous. But ROTK deserved it.
Not much for Fox News to froth at the mouth about; very few, mild political comments. Just Errol Morris and Sean Penn (which I didn’t hear, but was told about), if I didn’t miss anything.

Around the Coalition

Haven’t done this for a while, so here goes:
The horsewhooping of Jesus!
Trish Wilson has a couple polls to vote on. We’re losing on one! Go!

New World Blogger has a link from Slate about video games in countries where the enemy is your country (or something, I can’t figure out how to describe in […]

I suppose it was only fitting

Smith and Wesson chairman replaced over Jesse James past

NEW YORK (AFP) - Legendary US gun manufacturer Smith and Wesson said it had replaced its chairman following newspaper revelations that he had spent up to 15 years in prison for a series of armed robberies.

Minder, 74, served time in prison in the 1950s and 1960s and […]

Go, now, read PZ Meyer’s A lesson plan for Oklahoma. Good stuff.

Defense defense

John Kerry’s Defense Defense
On a couple of the weapons, the RNC report cites H.R. 5803 and H.R. 2126. Look those up. They turn out to be votes on the House-Senate conference committee reports for the defense appropriations bills in October 1990 (the same year as S. 3189) and September 1995.

You just kind of expected it. I could rant about the hypocrisy towards state’s rights, the silliness of imposing your religion on […]

Hit the penguin with snowball, try to get it in the center of the bullseye. Not as cool as the first one, but fun. I’ll post my high score later.

Lawsuits are fun!

If anyone remembers, a while back there was a site you could sign up for a portion of the settlement in an antitrust lawsuit against the major record labels (for overcharging consumers on CDs). Well, my check came yesterday: $13.86. Whatever will I spend it on?

Either on The Radio Factor or Limbaugh’s show, I heard this quote from Ah-Nold:
MR. RUSSERT: But if someone’s been a citizen for 20 years, they should have the right to run for president, don’t you think?

What the fuck?

Via Altercation:
A Wall as a Weapon
by Noam Chomsky
Well that’s new.
Sheesh, two posts in a row on Chomsky. I think you go to hell for things like that.
That is, if hell exists.
