I interrupt my bloggy vacation to announce that I am convalescing from a nasty throat infection, although I at least know that it isn’t pharyngeal gonorrhea. By the way, what did I miss while I was away? Oh, slug coitus? Darn, that could have been a better alternative to enduring the Hate Bush Convention (whose… Continue reading this entry
We on the Right need to wring our hands less over Andy Sullivan’s shift towards the Democrat party (besides he has declared himself a single-issue voter ever since the Federal Marriage Amendment disagreements). I think every one has a right to change his mind, and the proper reaction to any indication of betrayal is not… Continue reading this entry
And don’t accuse me of being lazy. I have sifted through the recipes on Food TV and have gotten little help for my inch-thick pork chops. Now, dear friends, I have to ask y’all. I want my pork chops seared and then finished off in the oven, but I don’t know with what to marinate… Continue reading this entry
These days, it’s hard to keep an “open mind” if you’re the Australian foreign minister, Alexander Downer. Given the choice between capitulation to terrorism, and actually standing one’s ground, there’s not much space to keep an open mind anyway. The Philippine national security advisor has been quoted on FOX News (TV) as complaining that the… Continue reading this entry
Finally, a better author for Wonkette, while She Who Will Not Be Spoken Of is off to blog the DNC.

I have tried to avoid using terms like “stopping gay marriage†and “protecting kids†here. Those are negative terms. While… Continue reading this entry
The man behind some really, really great soundtracks (think Star Trek: Voyager opening credits and Ave Satani from The Omen) is dead. The only other film composer on my deathwatch is Morricone, but by the looks of things, he’s not going anywhere. He’s got work to do: particularly, Leningrad, which was Sergio Leone’s dream project… Continue reading this entry
Reverend Chapin, Steven den Beste, and Vincent M. Ferrari say for me most of what I want to say about same-sex marriage. Certainly, a few things have changed about my stance on it. I am still a proponent of Same Sex Marriage. However, I can no longer argue it on an equal protection standpoint. I’m… Continue reading this entry
I hope that answers The Other Jay’s question about Slick Willy’s book. I apologize for the gratuitous Clinton-bashing that is not a character of this blog.
John Cole notices some die-hard defenders of Sandy Berger and his thievery: This kills me- Sandy Berger is caught red-handed pilfering documents in a sting, and Oliver is pissed that someone leaked information about the investigation. My bad- Terry McAwful is still defending Berger. You just know Michael Moore can’t be far behind. — John… Continue reading this entry
