Month: February 2006

Better known as the White House Press Corp, with their insatiable appetite for red meat. When none could be found, they continued on their tear by feasting upon Press Secretary Scott McClellan. Their evil ways were captured on video by Ian over at Expose the Left.

Mmmm, I’m hungry.

THOUSANDS of people flocked to southern Egypt today to seek blessing from a calf they believe was born as God’s reply to the publication in Europe of cartoons depicting the prophet, police said.

Some 20,000 thousand people had gathered in front of Mohammed Abu Dif’s house in the village of Tunis to see the holy mammal, whose skin folds when he was born reportedly formed the words “There is no God but Allah”, a police official said on condition of anonymity.

He said the villagers flocked from all over the southern governorate of Sohag to the farmer’s house and had to be dispersed by police, who feared the gathering could get out of control.

Witnesses said they believed the calf was “Allah’s response to current attacks against Islam”, the official said.

He was referring to the publication in a Danish daily five months ago of cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed, which is banned in Islam.

OK, I’ll say it.

Holy Cow.

Now that we’ve got that over with…let’s eat.

Phew! I was hoping to replace my old Saddam photo. That one has too many dart holes in it now and it’s hard to actually see the tyrant’s eyes, which is where I always aim. Thing’s will be much better though, now that I’ve found this one.

Oh, and yeah, he was brought into court again today, he yelled at the judge, refused to testify, and called Bush a criminal.

Just another ‘normal’ session in Saddam’s ‘trial’.

A speech by Al Gore used to be written off as typical political grandstanding, but all that has changed. Now, it’s not that easy to understand the motivations of the former Vice President of the United States. These days, he’s talking more like an insurgent than a statesman (not that he ever really was one).

The latest Gore sting comes from Saudi Arabia, where the jihadist spoke earlier today in front of attendees of the Jeddah Economic Forum.

Michelle Malkin gives the speech a well deserved skewering, and she links to other blogger reaction.

UPDATE: Gore paid by event sponsors, the Bin Laden family.

After news came out this weekend about the hunting accident involving Vice President Dick Cheney, the MSM and lefty blogs have been going nuts over the fact that the news wasn’t reported for 18 hours after the fact. With tin foil hats firmly in place, the wackos are adding all the ingredients in hopes of creating a full-on scandal. The goal?

Take out Dick Cheney.

The more than 18-hour delay in news emerging that the Vice President of the United States had shot a man, sending him to an intensive care unit with his wounds, grew even more curious late Sunday. E&P has learned that the official confirmation of the shooting came about only after a local reporter in Corpus Christi, Texas, received a tip from the owner of the property where the shooting occurred and called Vice President Cheney’s office for confirmation.

The confirmation was made but it is not known for certain that Cheney’s office, the White House, or anyone else intended to announce the shooting if the reporter, Jaime Powell of the Corpus Christi Caller-Times, had not received word from the ranch owner.

Here is the question the left will cling on to and not let go of this week:

“How is it that Vice President Cheney can shoot a man, albeit accidentally, on Saturday during a hunting trip and the American public not be informed of it until today?”

Democrat talking points have been built, printed out, and distributed. Watch for the left to infiltrate the cable news television shows.

In the end though, it will amount to nothing, and the left will be left with another illegitimate controversy of their own making which doesn’t resonate with the American public.

What a waste of time.

Would you rather go hunting with Dick Cheney, or be the lone passenger in a car driven by Ted Kennedy?

After the report today about Dick Cheney’s hunting accident, I read this crap.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12 /U.S. Newswire/ — James and Sarah Brady made comments today related to Vice President Cheney’s reportedly accidental shooting yesterday in Texas.

“Now I understand why Dick Cheney keeps asking me to go hunting with him,” said Jim Brady. “I had a friend once who accidentally shot pellets into his dog – and I thought he was an idiot.”

“I’ve thought Cheney was scary for a long time,” Sarah Brady said. “Now I know I was right to be nervous.”

Those who hate Bush, Cheney, or anyone associated with their administration will take any opportunity they can to make political hay from bona fide accidents that occur. It was Bush falling from bikes before, and now it’s gonna be the gun-toting wild-eyed Veep who is so mean he’ll shoot his own friends.

I wish politics was just about politics.

If Hillary has any hope of being a future president, be it in 2008 or beyond, she must deal with this kind of voter.

HILLARY CLINTON would make an excellent president, according to Meg Hirschberg, whose husband runs a hugely successful organic yoghurt company in New Hampshire: “She’s amazing and brilliant and smart and lovely.”

So that’s a vote for Clinton in 2008, then? Not at all. Hirschberg is thinking of backing Mark Warner, the former governor of Virginia, a likable, low-key, moderate Democrat who won a traditionally Republican state and, by all accounts, ran it competently. At this stage, it is enough of a recommendation.

“I don’t know a thing about him and I don’t care,” Hirschberg said last week as Warner listened to her husband explaining the finer points of organic farming. “I just want somebody with decent values who can win. It’s nothing to do with Hillary personally. It’s irrational and unfair, but she is polarizing.”

Polarizing. Exactly what Hillary doesn’t want to be, but she has little control when it comes to public perception, and to a majority of people, Hillary isn’t the one.

2nd biggest snowstorm in New City’s history cripples the Big Apple.

I’m just back from being gone all day (it started at 6:45 AM), and now I’m whipped, so that’ll be it for me today. Time for some XBOX 360.

But first, I think Mrs. Bush is one classy lady.

Until tomorrow.
