One Iranian ambassador, dyed a nice pastel green. What?  Iranians are people too, are they not?  Just ask Rosie.  So really, why shouldn’t they get to gather up a few eggs? I mean, WHAT WOULD JESUS DO? Still, unless we have something big in store for Iran—and British assistance is crucial to our plans—this sends all the wrong signals. Unless you happen to be Jimmy Carter.  In which case, tits!

We discussed this yesterday, did we not?  Eggs.  Omelets.  What is it you stupid neocons don’t understand about TOUGH LOVE, anyway? **** (h/t Patterico and CJ Burch, who writes, “I hear the WaPo is considering another strong condemantion of LGF in response.” BECAUSE OF THE TU QUOQUENESS!)

Truthiness in Technicolor! HBO is planning to make an unbiased film, titled “Recount” and scheduled to premiere early next year, about the 2000 presidential election. That could be difficult, if not impossible, to pull off, because the director, executive producer, and writer of the movie are all Democrats. Oh, and Colin Callender, the president of HBO Films, is also a D. The Hollywood Reporter this week quoted Callender as saying

Sure, I know every inch of the way from Albany to Buffalo.  And you know what it got me?  Port sores and an unnatural affection for watered down beef stew and pale harbor trollops with spectacularly lumpy asses. Hauled some barges in my day, indeed.

I’d be interested to get the establishment feminist take on this case, in which a woman who cried rape is indicted for the death of her lover—even though it was her husband who shot him dead: Darrell Roberson came home from a card game late one night to find his wife rolling around with another man in a pickup truck in the driveway. Caught in the act with her lover,

Courtesy Sweetness and Light, more enabling of a dark age culture by boosters of multiculturalism: For a small piece of cloth meant to conceal — the word comes from the Arabic “hijaba” which means to hide from view — the hijab has never been a more conspicuous or controversial symbol. It may be more visible than ever today at McMaster University, where a professor organized a Wear My Hijab day.

In my day, we called this “playing doctor”—although the new wrinkle about making it a “teaching hospital”?  All them. Of course, now that I’m older, I’m outraged.  I mean, first cannibalism and now this?  HECKUVA JOB, BROWNIE!

From Katherine Mangu-Ward, Reason (print edition): West Virginia taxpayers may soon be paying for portly citizens to attend Weight Watchers meetings.  The state claims it’s spending $100 million a year on obesity-related health care.  Now, in an effort to reduce those costs, the state’s largest Medicaid provider—UniCare, a subsidiary of Wellpoint—will pony up for 16 weeks of subsidized Weight Watchers services.  Wellpoint intends to establish similar payouts in 14 other

Consider it an Easter gift.  Like Peeps, only saltier, and with a hankering for delicious pints of New Castle: President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said ran would free the 15 detained British sailors and marines Wednesday as a “gift” to the British people. He said the captives, who were seized while on patrol in the northern Persian Gulf on March 23, would be taken to Tehran airport at the end of the
