Another battle in the fat war
I see a conspiracy here. George Bush is NOT the idiot among us. Do-good fucktards and blithering idiot reporters are FAR MORE DANGEROUS than George Bush could ever be, even if he suddenly fell off the wagon, drank a quart of moonshine and went staggering around the Oval Office with his finger on the Red Button while shouting "Give me the fucking codes!!! I want 'em RIGHT NOW!!"
More great rant from Acidman. You'll love this one Morey. Too bad I have to work tonight. I feel like getting drunk and screaming "Give me the fucking codes!!! (LP)

FEET OF CLAY. Let me get this straight.... First CNN withholds stories because they're afraid of pissing off Saddam Hussein. Now we hear that they softpedal their questions because they're intimitated by the White House and Fox News.
Tell me, do you think there's anyone that CNN won't roll over for? [The Spoons Experience]

Starbucks is ok but this is the real deal. I've been using it since last year when I heard about it from Chris Pirillo at Lockergnome. Its not cheap but then real quality never is. If your lucky enough to live near one of their stores check them out. We peasants out here in the sticks have to get it mailorder buts thats ok. When you have an addiction nothing stands in the way. While your checking out their website be sure to order one of the new Pirillo Power Packs and make Chris happy. (LP)

Ninth Circus. Robert Alt has an excellent summary of what the Ninth Circuit did, and why it will require the Supreme Court to revisit Bush vs. Gore. The key paragraphs: Put simply, the Bush v. Gore ruling was not based on the... [Wizblog]

Krauthammer on the Bush Haters. [Right We Are!]
......the unhinging of the Democratic Party. Democrats are seized with a loathing for President Bush - a contempt and disdain giving way to a hatred that is near pathological - unlike any since they had Richard Nixon to kick around.

Stem to Sperm. [Zogby Blog]
Scientists have turned stem cells into sperm cells. They already made stem cells into egg cells. This is all we need. I am all for using stem cells for research on parkinson's, cancer, MS, quadrapalegics and other diseases, but do we really need to create more life? In my opinion, we need a world war to decrease the population of the world. At the rate single mothers in the ghetto are making babies, soon were not going to have room to move. We need to figure out better ways to prevent more births, not how to create life in the lab. This almost makes me want to eliminate stem cell research all together. More F-ing children. Like the little brat that was screaming and pounding on my neighbors door for an hour this morning, mumbling some unrecognizable sylabic forms. I think it was a name, but who can be sure what's a name and what's a nonsense word anymore.
I'm not nearly as worried about more babies as I am about not needing men anymore! (LP)

QUITE A FEW PEOPLE HAVE EMAILED ME LINKS TO this speech by Judge Don Walter, one of the federal judges who was in Iraq this summer on a judicial-assistance mission. I wasn't sure if I could rely on it, so I phoned his chambers and verified that it was genuine. It's worth reading. Here's an excerpt: [Instapundit.com]

Bite - Sized Wisdom from: [I M A O]
* I was like, "Oh no; the recall is delayed." Then I realized it was the 9th who made the decision, the most overturned court in the nation, so I knew this was just another temper tantrum of theirs to get attention. Let's just ignore them until the Supreme Court has a look-see.
* And why is everyone down on punch card ballots because they're more prone to voter error? Voter error is just God's way of making sure that people too dumb to follow simple instructions are not the ones deciding the future of our nation.

All in the Family [Wall Street Journal]
Miami Herald columnist Jim Defede has a nice overview of the Democratic presidential field:
The nine Democratic contenders for president remind me of a big family.
You have your four older siblings (Joe Lieberman, John Kerry, Richard Gephardt and Howard Dean) who are always fighting with each other; their little sister (Carol Moseley Braun) whom they ignore; and their kid brother (John Edwards) who would do anything to get noticed.
Next you have the angry uncle (the Rev. Al Sharpton) who could snap without warning and begin beating you with the sock full of nickels he keeps tucked away in his pocket; and the weird cousin (Dennis Kucinich) who used to eat paint chips as a child and now spends most of his time playing in the dirt under the back porch.
Finally there is crazy old grandpa who shows up to Thanksgiving dinner every year without his pants and thinks it's cute to drop his dentures into the sweet potatoes when nobody is looking. That's our Bob Graham.
Now everybody in the family may love grandpa, but nobody is going to give him the keys to the car--if you know what I mean.

Meow Mix [Wall Street Journal]
Last week our colleague Eric Gibson bemoaned the sorry state of political invective in America, where President Bush's challengers are leveling such unimaginative insults as "out of control" and "ludicrous and insane." This may be a rare case in which we Americans can learn something from our northern neighbors. The Toronto Globe and Mail reports that the Progressive Conservative Party, which controls the provincial government in Ontario, issued a press release last week that described Dalton McGuinty, head of the opposition Liberal Party, as "an evil reptilian kitten-eater from another planet."
McGuinty's reply: "I love kittens, and I like puppies too." Waiter, the mixed grill, please!

Aunt Martha's Star
The pitch is tempting: Name a star after yourself or a loved one. Aunt Martha will twinkle for eternity, winging through the Milky Way on a parchment certificate and a prayer.

Chicks and Sports. [Right-Thinking from the Left Coast]
The feminists and bleeding hearts think that women's and men's sports are equally interesting and appealing to the public, so they explain away these repeated failures of women's sports in terms of men being intimidated by "powerful" women. The unfortunate fact is that women's sports are, for the most part, boring as hell, especially when compared to their male counterparts. This is why Title IX is such a stupid idea, because it assumes that there is equality of interest where none exists.
