OK so the US government has finally gotten around to listing certain websites as being part of foreign terrorist organizations. But the first three mentioned are of JEWISH terrorist groups?
How many Muslim and extreme left sites did they pass up to get to those?
Rush goes to rehab. Now he can explain any stupid comments he made about black quarterbacks to the influence of the drugs.
Prediction: When he comes out of rehab he will realize that his whole right-wing persona was a manifistation of his drug addled mind and he will become a vegan animal rights crusader.
Kathy Shaidle of Relapsed Catholic (and my favorite religious person) has just had an article publised on the American Spectator's on-line edition - The American Prowler.
The piece is about Irshad Manji Canada's Muslim answer to Martin Luther (OK maybe not but you get the idea) and her new book which is heavily critical of Islam. Go read the article and then go read the book, and while your at it go read Kathy's book "God Rides A Yamaha" which is not about me even though I ride a Yamaha and am pretty friggin Godlike!!
"Men donating for IVF produce better sperm after watching porn movies in the hospital. This is the result of an investigation at the Academic Hospital of Maastricht.
IVF requires the men to deliver their sperm on location. Therefor a special 'sperm delivery room' has been created. The help the men with their job, adult magazines are available.
According to H. Evers, head of the unit reproduction, men aren't always succesful in performing when requested. To support them the unit wanted to provide the ability to watch porn movies. 'The hospital's board at first didn't want to fund the necessary equipment existing of a TV set and videoplayer with headphones, but now they do', told Evers."
James Taranto's OpinionJournal - Best of the Web Today is one of the best things on the net. Today's examination of the Democrat's hypocrisy over the accusations that Arnold is a serial groper is excellent.
"Schwarzenegger's alleged history of boorish, even assaultive, conduct toward women is a legitimate topic of journalistic inquiry. It does tell us something about his character, and it's a perfectly respectable reason not to vote for the man. Clinton's defenders, however, argued otherwise when their man faced allegations of the same type. We all remember the litany: The conduct in question was "personal," it was in the past, his critics were partisan or hypocritical, and anyway what did it have to do with the job of being president?
Given that many of the same people had attacked Clarence Thomas a few years earlier for purportedly making ribald comments, it was hard to credit the Clinton defenders with making a principled argument. But polls at the time showed a substantial majority of Americans opposing impeachment, so not only partisan Democrats found this argument persuasive, whatever the motives of those who employed it."
I pretty much agree with him - so I don't have to blog about it and you can click on the link above to read the rest of his excellent piece.
I have added some new blogs to the roll which are worth checking out. Ahora Que is based in LA and chasing an LA woman (or at least is my understanding)
Blog Canada is a directory of Canadian Blogs - and it's indexed! Check it out.
Jim Elves runs Blog Canada and has his own blog (looks to be left leaning a first on my blogroll - boy I am tolerant!!) Seriously Jim if you tell Mark Steyn I put you on my blogroll I'll cut you!!!
No, that sounds too violent. And besides Mark Steyn doesn't know me and I rarely read him anymore since the Post dropped him. Which is stupid because he is on-line and other bloggers are always linking to him saying "wow look at what Mark Steyn wrote about French people and how they suck!" "Now French people will read his words and know that they suck!" or things like that.
Anyway Jim can tell anyone that a crazy right wing nut has blogrolled him. I am comfortable with my blogroll and not threatened by his presence on it.
Brian J. Noggle on who is now eligbile for office in our politically correct world.
: "That's right. Every guy who's kissed a girl in high school and then thought, 'Hey, we've been dating a week and a half, maybe I can touch her sweater....' is now a man beast incapable of leading. Because let's face it, in our youth, we men have often tried to encourage persons of the opposite sex into sexual congress with varying styles of unspoken subtle nudging or overt, 'Nice shoes, want to, er, fornicate?' and with varying degrees of success, which sometimes ended in unsuccess when male hand met female flesh and the female said no.
So that leaves the following people eligible for office: Heterosexual women. Ricky Martin (or other sexy from a young age celebrities) to whom the women have probably never said no. Guys too dorky to ever consider sex as feasible. Gay men, particularly gay men who were never in the closet in high school and didn't date girls in confusion or as a cover. Catholic priests or other religious or ascetics who have taken, and held, a vow of chastity. Extremely cautious guys who insist upon consent forms signed in front of witnesses and insist upon videotaping the proceedings for evidence. A lot of my dates went fine until that point, let me tell you. Guys who held out resolutely until marriage. I'm not sure we could elect a full Senate from this group. Guys who only frequent prostitutes. "
And as a rhetorical loaded question smear, I present: which of these categories does Gray Davis fit into?
Our health care system is a mess, despite massive influxes of cash from the government (see the Ontario Budget, above). You don’t believe me? Try getting cancer some day, or being old and in need of some sort of treatment and tell me how it works out for you. The primary moral sentiment behind our current health care model is not only reprehensible but also a self-deluding lie. The “principal” that one can’t get a treatment if it’s not available to all in a first-come first-serve fashion is nothing but the enshrinement of the petty peasant virtues of jealousy and spite. Furthermore, Canada does have a highly tiered health-care system, the tiers being based on whether you’re a politician, famous, a friend of a doctor, working in the health care system, or being treated by worker’s comp. Or a nobody. Pretending it isn’t so doesn’t make it such.
So: allow limited experimentation in private health care. You know, like those right-wing lunatics in Sweden. In particular, allow single-purpose clinics to be built, charge OHIP, and to extra-bill patients. The model for this is Toronto’s Shouldice Clinic, which was grandfathered into our system from pre-socialized health care times, and which provides first-rate timely medical servies. This could easily make up the shortage of medical imaging facilities, oncology professionals, etc.
Absolutely true. Too bad no one in the media is willing to commit heresy by exploring these truths.
