Feces-throwing monkey on the loose in Tampa Bay

Wildlife officials said a rhesus monkey known to throw feces when mad is on the loose in Tampa Bay. Authorities have been trying to capture the primate since Tuesday afternoon, but it managed to evade a bucket truck and tranquilizer dart. OK, this is a serious emergency. But I think in the public interest, I should provide a better caption photo than the one used on the news site. Now, watch out if you're in Tampa, because the feces in question tends to emerge from the hole under his nose.

Impeach Olmert!

Apparently, he, not George W. Bush, is President of the United States. Therefore, I would like to see him impeached, removed, indicted, prosecuted under the War Crimes act, and ultimately sentenced to hang to death (after all of his appeals are exhausted, of course).

Here Scheuer warns that Americans will be killed as a result of Israel's slaughter in Gaza, just as 3,000 died on 9/11 for Israel's previous brutality (not that they didn't know it was coming and turn a blind eye.)

Impeach Bush!

And it's not too late to hold a trial in the Senate. Seriously though, The Other Scott Horton's great Harper's article, "Justice After Bush" is now online. My take is forget commissions, just keep hiring special prosecutors until Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Tenet, Ashcroft, Rice, Powell, Addington, Haynes, Feith, Yoo, Bybee and Gonzales are all rotting in cages - life without parole.
