OK, Annie wins in a runaway due to the overwhelming accrual of pathetic narcissism points. Congrats Ann, may your law school realize what an embarrassment you are to academia, the profession, and humanity at large.

Sorry, I’ve done so much good this year, I needed to balance that out lest I find a solid platinum Bentley under my tree.

This is like the 1980 winter Olympics all over again.

Feel the Doddmania

Chris Dodd is going to filibuster the pro-authoritarian “fixed” FISA bill tomorrow. The site has links to how you can offer your support (things he can read, how to contact your congresscritters). AFAIK only Kennedy and Feingold have his back so far. Encourage your senator to help out.

Thank you for standing up for the Bill of Rights, Chris.

Like chocolate and peanut butter

December 16th, 2007 No comments

only where the chocolate and peanut butter are both made from different flavors of poo…

Lieberman (Asshatovillistan-CT) steps to the plate to once again show his deaf, dumb, and blind political instincts and serial tendency to support bad ideas and lost causes while stabbing his “friends” in the back … (drumroll) …

endorses McCain for preznit.

This event should come as no surprise to anyone except for Harry Reid. Brace yourselves for 2 weeks of Dean Broder and the other Unity 2008 fetishists to be swooning in their eggnog. I think I heard Sam Waterston’s fly unzipping when the news came out.

Now you’ve got the megalomaniacal DINO-Republican whose former party loathes him “making a splash” for the “maverick” christianist megalomaniacal Republican whose current party doesn’t trust him or his fealty to the party line.

Sounds like win-win to me.
Lieberman + McCain = Diaper dude

… alternate math: 3-way.

(I couldn’t decide. So sue me. You’re just lucky I couldn’t think of a decent image for “crap sandwich.”)

Update: those aren’t pillows!

So you trust wikipedia, eh?

December 13th, 2007 No comments

You might want to check who is writing the entries

The gospel of truth according to fake penis experts and nerds with chips on their shoulders, Wikipedia, has been edited by a Bush friendly member of the US House of Representatives.

Apparently the person was so concerned that people no longer bought the story about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq that he or she took to tampering with the Whackypedia entry.

The entry was edited by someone with a House of Representatives IP address to make the bizarre claim that there was a link between the terrorist organisation al Qaeda and the Iraq government.

Orwell wept. See also, the CIA and Vatican.

A US hacker’s homemade program to pinpoint origins of Wikipedia edits indicates that alterations to the popular online encyclopedia have come from the CIA and the Vatican.

Virgil Griffith’s “Wikiscanner” points to Central Intelligence Agency computers as the sources of nearly 300 edits to subjects including Iran’s president, the Argentine navy, and China’s nuclear arsenal.

Update: Add the US Army at Gitmo to the list.

Impeach them all

December 9th, 2007 No comments

It’s the only solution.

In September 2002, four members of Congress met in secret for a first look at a unique CIA program designed to wring vital information from reticent terrorism suspects in U.S. custody. For more than an hour, the bipartisan group, which included current House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), was given a virtual tour of the CIA’s overseas detention sites and the harsh techniques interrogators had devised to try to make their prisoners talk.

Among the techniques described, said two officials present, was waterboarding, a practice that years later would be condemned as torture by Democrats and some Republicans on Capitol Hill. But on that day, no objections were raised. Instead, at least two lawmakers in the room asked the CIA to push harder, two U.S. officials said.

With one known exception, no formal objections were raised by the lawmakers briefed about the harsh methods during the two years in which waterboarding was employed, from 2002 to 2003, said Democrats and Republicans with direct knowledge of the matter. The lawmakers who held oversight roles during the period included Pelosi and Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.) and Sens. Bob Graham (D-Fla.) and John D. Rockefeller IV (D-W.Va.), as well as Rep. Porter J. Goss (R-Fla.) and Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan).

Now you know why impeachment is off the table. All their hands are dirty.

The answer: impeach them all.1

1 Yes, yes, you can’t “impeach” members of the Senate or House. You can, however, expel them.

Each House may determine the rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two thirds, expel a member.

In the interests of keeping the end goal clear, language has been used interchangeably in this here post. Deal.
