‘They forced their way into houses’. Read about normal Iraqis being overrun with thieves.
Again via Publicola a link to this from the league of Samizdats:
I’m unsure as to your political orientation, but if you were a follower of Karl Marx’s fallback idea of creating a social democratic Utopia, via the ballot box rather than via the bullet in the back of the neck, how would you do it? [...]
Stupid Cyber-Sex via Publicola. Hey it’s good for a laugh.
I just heard Bill “Ahole” Moyers on PBS reporting about the hiding of a $44,200,000,000,000 projected federal deficit by the Bush administration. The reason this information was hidden he said was “so a few rich people could get a tax cut” (paraphrased). In light of this via the Instapundit it seems more than a [...]
Read today’s Lileks, more later.
The Borg (MT) have assimilated Treacher (Damian Penny’s reference)
I returned home to TN today. I’ve been thinking about some items of bloggy goodness. Now if I can only find my notes.
Will the carnage never cease? Now The Volokh Conspiracy has moved.
It’s happening everywhere. Now Tim Blair is gone (here is the corpse of his blogger site). The good news is that he has only moved, here is his new blog. I know that he has been having problems with blogger recently but I think that it was his Aussie ISP - Al Qaeda probaby [...]
Damian Penny has left Blogspot (I updated the link at the right). Everyone (You know who you are … Glenn) complains about Blogger but I’ve had good luck with it. And Blogger is about to release an update! (Re-write?). I’ve been satisfied with Blogger and I’m going to stay with them through [...]
While flying back and forth across the country and through different airports I am amazed to see the differences in security procedures. Some places require I.D. to board some don’t. Some airports carry your checked bags to a screener and some have you carry it to a screener or a queue for a [...]
Once again I’m traveling (for business) and as they say “blogging will be light[er]“.
Dear President Bush. I voted for you. I remember that your position on gun control was “that you would enforce existing [anti] gun laws”. I could live with that, you know, the status quo. There has been some noise about renewing the anti gun so-called “assault weapon ban”. Renewing a [...]
Protest Planned Against Greenpeace’s ‘Eco-Manslaughter’
Why does mainstream media soft-pedal this stuff? Why is murder considered manslaughter when you are killing “non-preferred races”? This is murder even when it happens in Africa, Asia, South America or anywhere else in the world.
The Evidence for Global Warming! None!
Reason Online has a post by Jacob Sullum about the so-called “Assault Weapons Ban” titled The real point of the “assault weapon” law . He quotes “Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer, who favors banning gun possession by civilians” in a 1996 column:
[Charles Krauthammer] conceded that the arguments advanced by supporters of the “assault [...]
Few people com to my blog but if you’re here please read this article on Soft America and Hard America.
(via Instapunit).
SPAM I was thinking about government efforts to control (regulate?) spam and then I thought about all the junk mail I get every day.
If the government regulates spam the same way the USPS “regulates” junk mail we’ll get spam while the government is on the take. Heck, with the government getting a piece of [...]
Via Instapundit I found this brief history of the internet and Zombo.com.
NPR ‘tard Alert! NPR has Bob Ricker (I’ll check spelling later) ex-gun industry lobbyist. Digest:
Bob Ricker says that gun companies should know which dealers are supplying the “Black Market” alternately the “Criminal Market”. His reasoning is that the gun manufacturers knew which (Federally Licensed Firearm) dealers are supplying the “Criminal Market” through the [...]
