in a wild burst of leftist liberal lunacy, california senator barbara boxer really crossed the line today trying to make a corporate tax break part of the proposed stimulus package. not just any corporate tax break either mind you but a full-on multinational corporate tax break. who knows if it's true. i read it in the la times . even a broke clock is right twice a day so maybe those msm liars at the times don't have a choice in this one. despite their suspicions boxe...
an article in today's la times quotes whitehouse spokesman bill burton's take on the situation thusly, "The presence of unauthorized raccoons gives us great paws." burton also noted the national park service is, at this very moment, attempting to trap them using peanut butter (what don't kill em makes em stronger) in hopes of a racoon rendition to someplace other than where they're at now. for the first time in my ju adventure i really wish i hadda audience log to see who c...
i'm notta big fan of firearms in general. i stopped hunting when i was still in my teens. i've had a few shots fired at me (all missed). on 11 different occasions, 11 different people have pointed firearms at me at close range. if i'd been armed, i would have not have been able to prevent any of those incidents from occuring. it seems to me much more likely i would have been shot in that case. despite all that, i gotta admit i'd love to have an antitank we...
prior to reagan taking office, disparaging the so-called mainstream media was strictly a rightwing sport. these days, proponents of every political position--including those at mid-center--seemed fully convinced print & broadcast journalists are simultaneously totally ignoring and actively targeting them and only them. ask 50 people to identify the dreaded msm and i've no doubt you'll wind up with no fewer than 50 ...
despite leonard cohen's protests to the contrary, come february 1, 2008 at least one sister of mercy--norma giannini, to be specific--just may be departed & gone. gone up the river that is, possibly for as long as 20 years total after pleading nolo to two counts of indecent behavior with a minor, charges dating back to the 60s when sister norma was at the helm of st patricks school in milwaukee, il. seems sister principal (and whatta pal she was) accrued mad interest in two young male mem...
those of us who don't wanna see the gop implode in 2008 have been holding our collective breath as prospective presidential nominees seek anointing as "chosen candidate" by the elders and high priests of the religious right as well as their legions of valuesvalent voters. our concerns seem, so far anyway, validated by the fact not one amongst them has been deemed righteous except by comparison to hillary clinton. regarding mitt romney, bob jones university's most recent chancellor, bob jones ...
according to this article at 'catholic online' http://www.catholic.org/national/national_story.php?id=25656 the very same yousef ramzi who earned hisself free lifelong membership at the exclusive supermax facility in florence, co for his work in the field of applied explosives has done seen da light. speaking to one of those new--like less than 90 years old--guys who interviewed him for '60 minutes', this weasel-faced fanatic muslim terrorist reportedly announced he is ...
resistors diodes capacitors all kinda other electronic components if you're lookin for real crap please check out elecsound but don't take my word for it. email them at shirley@elecsound.cn or shirleyelecsound@gmail.com and let shirley know what you think of selfish shitbag spammers who take advantage of this venue by squeezing out real articles by real people who put real thought and actual effort into their work.
i dunno if you've recently seen one of those color-coded national weather maps so i'm posting one captured within the past hour. as you can see, the whole damn country is hot as hell. wouldn't surprise me if areas shown in that scary purplish color aren't, in fact, official hell remote locations. i don't recall from past summers seeing this sorta map totally saturated in orange, red and beyond (not that i can recall ever actually or intentionally focusing any atten...
six months after robert novak spotlighted valerie plame, our justice department--charged with determining who told whom when and why--launched its investigation. while wowin the yokels at a press conference, shortly thereafter, ol honest george told us exactly what he planned to do: "If there's a leak out of my administration, I want to know who it is. If the person has violated law, that person will be taken care of." truer words was never spoke. i'm all for this k...
finally--after years of concerted effort and outrageous cash outlays to no apparent avail--some results! without having to do anything out of the ordinary (for, like, keith richards), i'm increasingly able to forget shit. pragmatist that i am, i'm not at all bothered by the possibility it may be nothing more than post-pre-early-onset senility. whatever works. thus it was doubly cool seeing former senator bill bradley last night (3/13/07) on bill maher's 'real time'.&n...
on monday (11/20/060) the national park service announced its intention to continue perrmiting use of yellowstone national park by as many as 720 snowmobiles per day. nearly four years of ongoing intensive studies of snowmobile impact on yellowstone's ecosystem by the agency's own scientists have so far cost us $8 million dollars and generated three reports, all of which have concluded snowmobiles produce unacceptable levels of air pollution and noise. other federal a...
samsung and korea university have moved forward into the past and built one of those things only ever seen previously in asian sci-fi movies: a robot sentry armed with a 5.5 machinegun for deployment along the dmz. it sees with two zooming cameras (regular for daytime, infrared for nite), issues commands through a speaker system and is claimed to be able to tell the difference between humans and like trees n stuff (a talent which still eludes some live domestic security guards). ...
would she have the same appeal if her name was condaleeza noodles? Link on an almost totally dissimilar note, can anyone explain why this article Link has been place in the politics > democrat category?
near the end of the first bush-kerry presidential debate, the following question was posed to both candidates: LEHRER: New question, two minutes, Senator Kerry. If you are elected president, what will you take to that office thinking is the single most serious threat to the national security to the United States? kerry responded thusly: KERRY : Nuclear proliferation. Nuclear proliferation. There's some 600-plus tons of unsecured material still in the former Soviet Un...
