Like Eugene Volokh, I don’t agree with the politics of this gag, but overall it looks like something I would have done 20 years ago if I had had a Mac, Photoshop and, er, talent.* (Invitations to parties at my home in those days were generally sent out as movie poster spoofs.)
*Not that I’d buy a Mac today, nor that I have Photoshop or talent along these lines today.
“A free Iran will change the world.”
God, what a great line. Why didn’t I read Ledeen yesterday? I meant to, I just never got to it.
Faster. Faster.
What a great idea
Via Best of the Web, a new idea for housing the homeless in NYC.
The best part about this is that, once they get the homeless on board, they can ship them out to somewhere else. I wonder if Bloomberg and his minions thought of that one yet?
Problem is, who would take them…
Annoying ads
Listening to Rush, and hearing these grating phoned-in ads (local ads, during the breaks) for a company called Frontline Security. This woman who supposedly owns the company has one of the most annoying voices I’ve ever heard. The advertising school of thought that says “it may be annoying but people will remember it” doesn’t work well with me, because indeed I do remember it…and I won’t ever buy anything from them.
Same thing with this Billy Mays character who does the TV ads on Fox and other channels. I wouldn’t buy anything he flacks in a million years.
War on Terroism campaign medals
should be made out of this metal. James Robbins has the right idea. Write your Congresscritter.
This is not a problem.
I see the government wants to keep a massive database of all of our purchases.
This doesn’t worry me. Who, precisely, is going to read and correllate this data? The already overworked and generally-terrorism-impaired intelligence community. Keep all the data you want about the books I buy, the weapons I keep supplied with ammo, and the meals I eat. I don’t care.
Information glut is going to kill any real chance of our vaunted intelligence agencies actually finding anything before it’s too late. This is what happened before Pearl Harbor — the ratio of noise to signal was way too high for any meaningful intelligence to be developed. This kind of stupidity just adds to the noise.
Stupid.
Another homicide bomber in Jerusalem.
It’s past time for the Israelis to start in the North with a line of armed soldiers and just walk south through the country, like we used to do in the Boy Scouts when we policed our campsites before leaving. Somehow you’ve just got to pick up the trash, and Hamas definitely qualifies as trash.
Tom Daschle…blind man walking
Tom…really. Paranoia will get you nowhere. People are watching, you know.
Oh, wait. You do know.
Hee.
You must be kidding.
Jim Jeffords allows as how he’d like to caucus with the GOP in the next session.
As long as he gets to keep his committee chairmanship, of course.
Jim, Jim, Jim. Do the words “eat shit and die, fucking traitor” have any meaning for you?
Watch for the price of dairy products to plummet in the next couple of years.
Busy today
Maybe some bloggage later. Sorry.
