The NYTimes Boards the (Lefty) Blogosphere

NZ Bear noticed a piece in the Depressed, er, Grey Lady, which mentions the Ecosphere rankings, saying that the Daily Kos gets over 500k hits a day. Which of course means (after checking with NZ to make sure that I understood it), that Kos gets 500k hits, not unique viewers. Well, Ok. 500K blackhearts. But […]

DNC Must Have Scurvy

Boy, gotta love the DNC. Their Eagle commercial is a pip. Comparing John Kerry to an eagle is basically a loooooooser proposition. Maype they should have used a vulture?! Kerry is a carrion eater. He is not a hunter. He is picking at the remains. He does nothing original. He constant negativity and extreme partisanship […]

Thanks, France!

The French are such wonderful people. Take every opportunity to stab the US in the back. Now they are going to let this scumbag terrorist into their country for medical treatment? Doctors decided to fly ailing Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat to Paris for treatment, as associates described a Palestinian leader who was too weak to […]

W on Kerry Today

Hear part of a speech by W this am. What stands out in my mind is this quote: “(John Kerry is the wrong man for the wrong job at the wrong time.” While Kerry is apparently still making a jackass out of himself by talking about 380 tons of missing explosives, which has been debunked […]

John Kerry: Weenie Extraordinaire

Kerry has continued to show that he doesn’t have what it takes to be President. His knee jerk reactions to anything that may offer the slimmest chance at taking shots at the President are not what a leader does. Kerry blowviates before the facts are in. The “380 missing tons” story is just the latest […]

Ye Olde Red Soxe Breake the Curse

I offer me fairest congratulations to the Red Sox and all their long suffering fans. You boarded the sloop Cardinal, and made them walk the plank.

It’s Mr. Howards Neighborhood

More good news from Down Under. Australia’s John Howard has captured control of his country’s Senate, making him the most powerful prime minister in 24 years. Final counting of votes from the 9 October election showed Mr Howard’s coalition won 39 of 76 Senate seats. It means he becomes the first man in decades to […]

Halloween Time,

I take absolutely, unequivically, no responsibility for this. Oh, wait, I linked it, I guess I do. 🙂 Give it up for Bad Example. Who owes me some heart palpitation medicine now.

Quick Hits

This sucks: Lunar Eclipse Expected Tonight. It’s cloudy in NC. Hope y’all have better luck. This doesn’t suck: Arafat’s Health Worsens. It is difficult to say that I wish a human being bad news, but, with Arafat’s death, perhaps his billions tht are socked away could end up taking the Palestinians out of their squalid […]

Hurricanes are Bush’s Fault

No, seriously. The global warming that has apparently only occured under W (sarcasm alert on Red) is going to cause more hurricanes, at least according to billboards going up in Florida. Because President George W. Bush has “ignored the threat of global warming,” Floridians can expect to be hit by increasingly destructive hurricanes, a new […]
