Angelina Jolie Syndrome, Afghanistan and You
Just because you are the best looking person in the room, doesn't make you the smartest. Anthony Gregory and Radical Caucus leader Susan Hogarth try schooling animated sex toy Starchild.

Former World Bank executive appointed Palestinian PM by Abbas
No, this is not a joke. The BBC just reported that Abbas appointed a new prime minister, Salam Fayyad, as Prime Minister of Fatah-controlled Palestine. The BBC helpfully adds that "a former World Bank executive, Mr. Fayyad is a well-respected figure internationally" thereby using the code words indicating that this appointment has received the approval of Abbas' bosses in the Imperial High Command. Wikipedia says that "he is seen as pro-Western" and that he also was the IMF's representative in...
Panic seizes clueless Imperial High Command
(Cross posted from my blog) Looks like the Imperial High Command has been totally caught off guard by the events in Gaza. Now, a former Israeli IDF Intelligence Deputy Chief - General (ret) Yaakov Amidror says that "Hamastan in Gaza" would endanger all of Israel while the IHT reports that the Bush Administration is considering "accepting the Hamas takeover of Gaza". While this might lead a naive person to conclude that the White House is accepting the endangerment of all of Israel, this really...
Invitation to speculation
Let us take a minute to speculate what a Hillary Rodham Clinton--presiding over a Democrat-controlled Congress--would look like. Do you think there will finally be Peace On Earth, the End of Poverty, Justice for Downtrodden, and the World Living As One? I can't wait, people. It's going to be great. After the Clintons are in office again, I know that I can finally sleep easy again knowing how safe the world will be from The Evil Doers.
Supporting your friendly neighborhood world empire under threat of imprisonment feels good

Go Berkeley!
Sometimes, I am proud of my town. From the San Francisco Chronicle: Berkeley High remains the only high school in the nation that has failed to comply with the military's request for students' data, a Department of Defense spokesman said. A month ago, the school -- under pressure from the government to release the data or lose funding -- changed its policy that blocked the release of students' personal information. The new policy allows students and parents who do not wish to be contacted by...

O’Reilly calls others traitors for covering America’s defeat in Iraq
Bill O'Reilly claims CNN and MSNBC are giddily helping the terrorists by covering the violence in Iraq. He is the true patriot for talking about nothing instead. It is obvious to me that the true culprits are those greedy technologists - I'm talking to you Sony and so forth! - who keep inventing smaller and cheaper video cameras and selling them to those darn ungrateful Iraqis.
