The White House Stages Its 'Daily Show': "By my count, "Jeff Gannon" is now at least the sixth "journalist" (four of whom have been unmasked so far this year) to have been a propagandist on the payroll of either the Bush administration or a barely arms-length ally like Talon News while simultaneously appearing in print or broadcast forums that purport to be real news."

Don't think of an elephant: "This book is not for the Howard/Bush lovers on this site. So to these, don't read the book. It's secret leftie business. Tactics and stuff. In fact, skip this review altogether. You really wouldn't be interested anyway."

Progressive Trickery: "Lakoff's book explains new discoveries of how small groups of neo-conservatives in major Western nations came to dominate their countries so strongly over the last 30 years, and why the conservatives, progressives and the left so completely buckled to their agenda. There is nothing new about this, but what is different about this book is that it details how the neo-cons frame political debate in order to cause neutral and opposing advocates to unwittingly help them."

Il Duomo di Milano is breathtaking: "I had 15 minutes extra on the way to the airport and I could not think of a better way to spend it than visiting the Cathedral in Milan." Wow! See the cathedral in 15 minutes - can anyone do it faster, faster, faster, faster...
