In his WorldNetDaily column, “A national emergency,” populist firebrand Pat Buchanan calls for the impeachment of President Bush, citing the President’s failure to protect the country from illegal immigration as reason enough to begin proceedings against him: Twice, George Bush has taken an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” Article IV, Section 4 of that Constitution reads, “The United States shall guarantee to every

Funny, but this same thing happened to me once—only the gray-haired “gentleman” in question was Bea Arthur, and instead of smiling and waving and saying “Thank you,” the old bitch dropped a handful of change out of the window, then peeled off with such force that the sideview mirror from her Escalade nearly ripped the squeegee right out of my hand. If there’s such a thing as cosmic justice, I

Me: “…The way you just sit there all smug and critical.  Tell me, what would you do to fight terrorism?  Throw pies?” Hole: Me: “Fucking hole.”

With bodies still floating dead in the water, attempts to affix political blame for a natural disaster continue apace in the “progressive” world of “reality-based” politics, a land where tyrants are good, people who fight them are bad, and religion is only worthwhile when it can be used to bludgeon the religious.  Firstly, and while the hurricane was ongoing, TalkLeft (along with the Swing State Project), attempted to blame Bush

UC Berkeley engineer and Bay Area activist Rick Sterling saw fit to drop one of his op-eds into my comments, presumably because—as a self-styled “activist”—he’s deluded himself into thinking his sentiments are so damn important that they simply must be shoehorned into the most inappropriate of venues.  Why, it’s an instance of heroic cyber confrontation, is what it is!— it’s SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER! So here it is, in all

Sobek Pundit posts some pictures of New Orleans from better days.  It’s a tribute to a city he loves—one he lived in up until 3 months ago—and offers a bit of a counter-balance to all the destruction we’re seeing now. Check it out. I never made it to New Orleans myself, though I always meant to (and almost did once, for a flag football tournament while in college; but I

See?  Didn’t even mention it.*

Me: “I bet you think we’re losing the war, don’t you?” Hole: Me: “Fucking hole.”

Or not. From the Washington Post: U.S. warplanes backed Sunni Arab tribal fighters on Tuesday in what tribal leaders called an unprecedented Sunni-led offensive to drive out Abu Musab Zarqawi’s forces. Three days of ongoing fighting in towns near the Syrian border killed at least 61 people, at least 56 of them Tuesday, said Dr. Ali Rawi, emergency-room director at the hospital in the largest city near the fighting, Qaim,

Today’s CINDY! diary at Daily Kos offers further, heartwrenching evidence that Ms Sheehan is simply a grieving Mom who just wants to chat with the President: While George golfed yesterday, the worst hurricane ever struck New Orleans; oil went up to over 68.00/barrel; and an American soldier was killed in the charade and cataclysmic occupation of Iraq. The soldier’s family doesn’t even know what’s going to hit them yet. The
