6/06/06
The National Day of Slayer: 6.6.06 isn't a date that comes around very often (once per century, to be exact), and while plenty of stupid horror movies and terrible albums will be released for the hype value of the day that bears "the number of the beast", we here at NDoS decided that this would be a perfect day for Hessians across the country to come together and engage in something upon which we can all agree - listening to Slayer!

McGovern Blasts Rumsfeld
Crooks and Liars has the video. Listen to the less-than-human Rumsfeld fans in the audience cheer his non-sequitur answer to why he's not a liar, "The troops didn't wear all that mop gear because it's in style," and then the pathetic fag-love qestion at the end beginning with something about, "Wow, I am so impressed and enthralled by your manly presence and passion for life..."

Let’s See Them Enforce It
Charlie Savage at the Boston Globe says this ain't far from dictatorship as Bush chooses which laws to enforce and which to ignore (more than 750 so far). It seems to me that the president does have the authority to refuse to enforce laws he believes are unconstitutional.
