He's gotta be scared, big time....
My Way News - Pursuing Healthier Bacon Through Biotech: "A microscopic worm may be the key to heart-friendly Bacon."
The most brilliant writer of our time
Facing down a culture where they talk like crazies: "In a more culturally confident age, the British in India were faced with the practice of 'suttee' -- the tradition of burning widows on the funeral pyres of their husbands. General Sir Charles Napier was impeccably multicultural:
''You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: When men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows.You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.'
India today is better off without suttee. If we shrink from the logic of that, then in Afghanistan and many places far closer to home the implications are, as the Prince of Wales would say, 'ghastly.' "
And no college degree for the uncredentialed Mr Steyn! How can that be?
IRL Sad.
IRL Driver Paul Dana Dies After Crash: " Driver Paul Dana died after a two-car crash Sunday during the warmup for the season-opening IRL IndyCar Series race at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
The other driver, Ed Carpenter, was awake and alert at a Miami hospital, IRL officials said.
Dana, 30, a former motorsports journalist with a degree from Northwestern, competed in three IRL races for Ethanol Hemelgarn Racing last year with a best finish of 10th in the race at Homestead."
Too young. Like all our soldiers, police and firemen.
Monsters!
Independent Online Edition > Middle East: "When policemen, soldiers and officials in Kirkuk who were injured in insurgent attacks arrived in the emergency room of the hospital, they hoped their chances of surviving had gone up as doctors tended their wounds.
In fact, many of the wounded were almost certain to die because one of the doctors at the Republic Hospital was a member of an insurgent cell. Pretending to treat the injured men, he killed 43 of them by secretly administering lethal injections, a police inquiry has revealed."
Make no mistake about our enemies. They are sociopaths who will never stop killing innocents around the world. Anyone who thinks that our leaving Iraq before they are able to stand on their own will guarantee our safety is delusional.
This is nuts!
Cops go to hotel bars to arrest drunk guests: "The controversial police tactic of arresting drunks at bars and restaurants has gone to a new level, to include intoxicated people at hotels, even those who are registered guests with no plans on driving. "
Atlanta Lou sent this. Is he worried? Heh..
Storm trooping into hotels won't fly with the public but I've always wondered why police don't stake out bars at closing time to nab drunk drivers.

More MuncieMania!
Frist Things First! By Mickey�Kaus: "
Hollywood veteran Rob Long, after watching Lazy Muncie on YouTube, validates Glenn Reynolds' thesis--that technology is empowering ordinary people to beat large organizations, including Big Media--as it applies to the comedy industry:"
MuncieMania
The Star Press - www.thestarpress.com - Muncie, IN: "Muncie's like a girl who doesn't get invited to many parties. Someone pays a little attention to her, and she wonders, Does he like me? Is he making fun of me? Mostly, she's just delighted she got noticed."
Yes, Virginia. Republicans have moonbats too......
New York Post Online Edition: news: "The Post also disclosed that McFarland had occasionally voted at both her Southampton and Manhattan addresses in violation of the state Election Law, which allows ballots to be cast from only address.
It was also revealed this week that there are several discrepancies in McFarland's resume and that she had falsely claimed to be the highest-ranking woman in the Pentagon at a time when two other women held higher-ranking posts. "
What is it with the super rich?

Do you hate being put on hold?
Komando.com, Website for The Kim Komando Radio Show, Kool sites: "Please hold"
<"http://www.gethuman.com/us">
Last month I noticed a mistake on my cell phone bill. I called the company to inquire and got the dreaded machine. It cost me more in minutes browsing menus than the discrepancy. From now on, I will visit the Gethuman Database first.
With this site, find the code to go straight to a person on the phone. Some are as easy as pressing "0". Others make you jump through hoops. But there is always a way."
This works!

Too funny. Click it.
What, no outrage? Double standard time, again.
Woman pleads guilty in Steele credit report case - baltimoresun.com: "A former Democratic staffer pleaded guilty today to computer fraud for snooping on Lt. Gov. Michael S. Steele.
Steele -- a Republican running for U.S. Senate -- was notified by Democrats in Washington that a staffer used Steele's Social Security number to obtain his credit report last year"
This report ignores an "unimportant" fact. Steele is black. Yes, I know it isn't really germane, but imagine if he was a black democrat....... imagine...... Where's Perkie Katie when a black GOPer needs her?
"Loney and Sooden?"
My Way News: "Loney and Sooden start trip home.
LONDON (Reuters) - Freed Canadian hostages Jim Loney and Harmeet Sooden headed to Baghdad airport on Saturday to begin their journey home from Iraq, a colleague said....
The two were freed by British-led special forces on Thursday along with fellow Christian peace campaigner Norman Kember, who flew out of Iraq on Friday.....
Relief at his escape was tempered by senior British military criticism that Kember had apparently failed to thank the soldiers who rescued him and his colleague"I am slightly saddened that there doesn't seem to have been a note of gratitude for the soldiers who risked their lives to save those lives," British Army chief General Michael Jackson told Channel 4 news on Friday.
Does something wierd happen to people who are named "Loney" or "Sooden"?

More bad news for Wikipedia fans
Dvorak Uncensored: Remember that study by Nature that proved that Wikipedia is as reliable as Encyclopedia Britannica? It probably wasn't true:
I've never liked the way they present their "facts". Google works best for moi.
Republican environmentalist? No way......
Mlive.com: "Muskegon County Commissioner Robert Scolnik said he will take the proposed phosphorous ban to county commissioners by June 1. Scolnik said he will propose enacting the ban in 2007, which would give local retailers time to sell their existing stock of phosphorous-based fertilizers.
"I don't see any reason not to do this,' Scolnik said. "
Scolnik is a Republican. It must annoy the Commissars at the Chronicle to print his party affiliation, so they conveniently left it out. Now you know.
Disgusting!
Math teacher hit; charges sought against 2 students: "Muskegon High School Principal Kent Nolen suspended the two students for 10 days.
Shirley McLemore, the school's director of pupil services, is reviewing the incident and could extend the suspensions or recommend that the school board expel the two ninth-graders. Such action, if it occurs, is likely before the 10-day suspensions expire. "
I don't want to see this headline. These thugs should never see the inside of any public school again! Let's see how the system "works"..
MoonBat alert!
BREITBART.COM - Democrats Say Bush Violated Constitution: "The Senate version of the bill said Medicare can pay to rent some types of medical equipment for 13 months, as intended by congressional negotiators. A clerk erroneously wrote down 36 months before the bill was sent back to the House for a final vote, and that's what the House approved Feb. 1. "
Gotta give them moonbats credit for consistant idiocy.....
Phone bill going up?
The Five Dumbest Things on Wall Street This Week: "Some investors are getting teed off at Verizon
This week, the New York telco filed 2005 executive-pay data with regulators. CEO Ivan Seidenberg took home more than $19 million in cash, stock and perks, up 13% from a year ago. His salary alone jumped 40% to $2.1 million. "
And VZ stock is near a 10 year low.....

Jimmah?
Statesboro Herald: "Requiring voters to show a free photo identification is just one of several changes the U.S. electoral system needs to catch up with most of the rest of the world, former President Carter said Wednesday."
Without question, his best idea. Will the rest of the obstructionist Democrats follow?
On the news tonight?
ABC News: Iraq Archive Document Describes Bin Laden Meeting: "(Editor's Note: This document is handwritten and has no official seal. Although contacts between bin Laden and the Iraqis have been reported in the 9/11 Commission report and elsewhere, (e.g. the 9/11 report states 'Bin Ladn himself met with a senior Iraqi intelligence officer in Khartoum in late 1994 or early 1995) this document indicates the contacts were approved personally by Saddam Hussein. "
About time!
Michigan Senate votes to take away powers of elections board:
LANSING, Mich. Republicans in the Michigan Senate have approved legislation stripping powers from the state elections board.
The move is a backlash against Democratic board members who've been criticized for the way they handled an anti-affirmative action ballot measure."
Last year, the Democratic board members initially refused to comply with a court order to place a constitutional amendment banning some affirmative action programs on this November's ballot.
The Democrats were breaking the law! Where's the outrage? Yeah, right....

If so, why are conservatives happier?
How to spot a baby conservative: "Remember the whiny, insecure kid in nursery school, the one who always thought everyone was out to get him, and was always running to the teacher with complaints? Chances are he grew up to be a conservative.
At least, he did if he was one of 95 kids from the Berkeley area that social scientists have been tracking for the last 20 years. The confident, resilient, self-reliant kids mostly grew up to be liberals."
But they said we conservatives were happier!
