Sheesh

It'll Be a Cold Day in Hell

Just reading through all the blogging goodness that I missed while being exploited by my capitalist, uh, exploiters; and working hard to become a dirty capitalist landlord; I noticed Johno’s opst on whiteness studies.

That is the most asshatted, fuckwitted, nozzleheaded bugfuckery I have run across in a goodly long while. Although - just think if some sneaky bastard used the banner of whiteness studies to hide a return to the study of the classics? Just thinkin, is all...

Buckethead is back

Unmitigated Gall

...and he’s been playing with toys. I would say that fatherhood has changed him, but that would be wrong. Bucket: Blogger looks different because while you’ve been away, they upgraded us to blogger-super-plus. Also, there is now a cure for cancer delivered in smokeable form, soccer is our new national pastime, dolphins and octopi have been discovered to be excellent at market analysis and are now the bulk of the staff at most large brokerages, and Vice President Daschle is standing by President Clinton’s decision to use force against the Motie forces currently massing beyond Saturn.

More on uranium

Partisan Politics

Calpundit points to a story that suggests Bush knew the Nigerian Uranium story was bogus from the start yet chose to use it as evidence anyway. Like Calpundit, “I’m not sure how seriously to take this,” but if, if this is so, it’s awfully damning.

It’s one thing to overplay your hand on thin evidence, or ignore the caution of the experts, which is what I think the President probably did. It would be another thing for the President’s people to have made up evidence against Iraq as it suits them. I’ll be watching this-- I want to know which thing really happened. Bad news either way, but much, much worse if this new development turns out to be credible.

Fun webtools dept.

Entertainment

The sign builder is a good way to waste some time. When we move this blog to a more salubrious clime, you will be able to see the results of buckethead cut loose on one of the time wasting webtools.

Wow

Just So You Know

Wow

The control panel for the blog looks different when you use Netscape 7. How’s that for an engaging post after a weeks long absence.

Crow, served hot

Partisan Politics

I’m baaack! (finally...)

So, the President has now admitted that the ironclad evidence that Iraq had purchased fissionable uranium from African nations was, in a word, vaporous. Reminds me of the time when the President made up that bit about Iraq buying up aluminum tubes that were only for use in reactors. One event implies nothing. From two like events you can posit the existence of a third.

The NYT has their story, and “Philippe de Croy” of the Volokhs writes,

Whether his credibility is becoming a problem domestically I do not know. There are plenty of people in this country who will continue to defend the Bush administration almost no matter what happens either because they find Bush personally appealing or because the importance of keeping the Democrats out is so great that they would rather excuse Bush and go on trusting him, more or less, content to call for the heads of whatever underlings were, ahem, “responsible” for any misinformation that was distributed. They feel that it beats the alternative. I understand why
