Thoughts two hours in advance of seeing a movie [A post by Beck]

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006): I sure hope this is funny enough to justify all the hype.  That wacky Ali G!

Progg Delineates Who Must Shut the F*** Up [Dan Collins]

Last week, I described a nightmare scenario in which the Republicans won the midterm prompting the president, high on mandate juice, to form the Department of Shut The F*** Up, headed by a sock puppet named Secretary Fiddlesticks. Now that the Democrats have taken back the Congress and 51+ percent of America finally has a voice in government again, I think it’s time to seriously let fly. So at the

McCain to launch 2008 exploratory panel [Dan Collins]

Republican Sen. John McCain intends to take the first formal step toward a White House run next week by launching a presidential exploratory committee, GOP officials say. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid pre-empting a public statement from the four-term Arizona senator, who is considered the front-runner for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination. McCain, the GOP maverick who unsuccessfully sought his party’s nomination in 2000, already

Carville Sold Out Kerry! [Dan Collins]

From the morons at crooksandliars: On page 344, Woodward describes the doings at the White House in the early morning hours of Wednesday, the day after the ‘04 election. Apparently, Kerry had decided not to concede. There were 250,000 outstanding ballots in Ohio. So Kerry decides to fight. In fact, he considers going to Ohio to camp out with his voters until there is a recount. This is the last

Anti-Semitism Makes Strange Bedfellows

Here. Frankfurt, 80 km (50 miles) east of Berlin on the Oder river, is in Brandenburg, one of three ex-communist states where far-right parties won enough votes for state parliament seats. The federal government has called a rise in anti-Semitic violence worrying. Police said last month attacks by far-right groups rose 20 percent in the first eight months of 2006. In July, extremists in the neighbouring state of Saxony-Anhalt burned

Advanced Degree in Conspiracy Theory [Dan Collins]

(Cross-posted from Bloody Scott) The University of Wisconsin is now offering instruction in Conspiracy Theory. The time to jump into this fast-growing field is now, when you can get in on the ground floor. Learn the rhetorical and evidentiary techniques that will undoubtedly be in demand under the coming regime of pan-Islamism. The future is approaching; do you wish to be part of it? I like this one: Conspiracy Theory

A Small History Lesson (CraigC)

The following is a paper I wrote in college about the Battle of the Bulge.  I offer it on this Veteran’s Day as a thanks to my father and his friend Eric Wood, who served together in WWII, and to all veterans everywhere.  I also offer it as a reminder to those who think that this current war we’re in isn’t a battle for the survival of the nation every

Actus: Brittney Spears “Compelling”

Technique of de-contextualization employed by MSM, lefty bloggers, and trolls everywhere, otherwise known as “sadlyno-ization”: I don’t look at mine as instutitional [sic]. I look at it as what I make of it. So it is with gays, and so it is with spears. Thats why I find her compelling. Let’s institutionalize the non-institution of marriage for gays?

Ground Control to Major John [Dan Collins]

Ground control to Major John, Wash your cheese fries down with Chimay if you want. Ladies and gentlemen, Please take a moment to send an e-card to a paralyzed vet from your home state. And don’t forget to respond, if you can, to this worthwhile bleg, which has scandalously reaped not even one comment. There’s also Operation Gratitude.  Your donation can help for Thanksgiving, when grateful people express gratitude for

Veteran’s Day.  With Cheese Fries.

My reward for 22 years of service…cheese fries!
