Jon Stewart’s show got it right, according to an emailer:
Stewart: So after yesterday’s announcement of Bush’s pick for the Supreme Court, how is the left wing reacting?
Correspondent: Well, Jon, they’re outraged over Bush’s pick, and they have been for weeks.”
And they’re just getting started.
Here’s a blog tracking the developing news in London.
The mayor who was brave and resolute on 7/7 is back to his old habits of making excuses for Islamist extremism.
The worst-album-covers-ever website has new material.
A brief demonstration.
The news from London is confusing right now and I’m trying to piece it together. This seems odd:
Reports suggested that a number of blasts had been caused by dummy blasts caused by detonator caps exploding, unconnected to explosives. Witnesses at the various scenes said the blasts had come from rucksacks; police appealed for images from mobile phones from witnesses. The Met said after initial examinations at Warren Street and Oval, “early indications show no trace of chemical agents”.
Copy-cat scare tactics? Failed explosions? 7/7 repeated as farce? No casualties as yet. Londoners seem to be responding appropriately:
Witnesses at the Oval described a “small explosion” from a bag. One witness said man had joined the train carrying a bag and that passengers had scuffled with him but failed to stop him. “He had a black holdall when he boarded the train,” he told Sky News. “He put it down and suddenly ran off the train. People tried to stop him but he got away. There was then a noise which sounded like the popping of Champagne corks.”
Stay tuned.
Women’s rights are limited and then there’s this about Israel.
Good for the Roberts family for adopting children. Good for the church and the state for blessing their civil and religious marriage, despite its non-procreative character. If more people adopted, we might have fewer abortions. Just don’t go further and use others’ inability to procreate their own biological children as a reason for denying them equal treatment under the law – either in adoption or marriage.
A classic diss.
Here’s a good one from Greg Gutfeld:
“A FUNNY BAR JOKE! (burp!)
Jann Wenner walks into a pub and sits down next to a man with a dog at his feet. “Does your dog bite?”
“No.”
A few minutes later the dog takes a huge chunk out of Mr. Wenner’s leg.
“I thought you said your dog didn’t bite!” he says indignantly.
“That’s not my dog,” says the other man.
“I can’t help but believe that this is in part the result of Bush’s War on Iraq,” says Jann, before limping out to his car.
