    The guy who sat next to me in the turret of our Bradley during our three-country tour sends that the VA is warning 3200 patients in Florida that they might have gotten HIV from improperly sterilized equipment.

    Added: Oh, yeah – Mom wants you to see the tufted titmouse that’s been at her feeder all winter.

  • What’s good on the web? (UPDATED)

    I just got done updating my Blog Roll from this last spate of links. I’m sorry it took me a week, folks, if I missed you let me know and I’ll hook you right up. I’ve got a post going up on Talon this evening so keep an eye out for it. It’s timed to come up on here tomorrow morning.

    Updating my blogroll reminded me that I haven’t done a link fest for a while and I think it’s time;

    First, my good buddy, Thus Spake Ortner will be on the local news tonight, so if you’re in the DC area watch Channel 9 news tonight, if you’re not, check for the video after the 11 PM broadcast on their website. He’ll tell you what to think about Stephen King. TSO warns;

    And remember, the camera adds 100 lbs. And a bad haircut.

    If you can’t wait for TSO’s television debut, Big Dog’s Weblog tells us about Stephen King (personally, I never liked King, so once again I lead the pack).

    From his throne, SGT Grumpy announces he may be home soon.

    The Spanish Pundit reprints and translates the Spanish media’s Declaration of Free Expression.

    More cartoons like this from Sparks from the Anvil;

    William Teach at The Pirate Cove has his eye on the two West Virginia Senators.

    Michael Goldfarb at The Weekly Standard Blog reprints a New York Times employee who thinks Americans should stay in Iraq.

    Blue Crab Boulevard quotes that great political philosopher, James Carville who thinks the Democrats may have trouble coming back together.

    Gateway Pundit reports that al-Sadr is hiding in Tehran and won’t speak with the Iraqi delegation sent to talk to him. So I guess that Mahdi Army isn’t fighting for anything anymore.

    There’s lots of good stuff over there on my blog roll, these were just folks that I thought were doing stuff no one else is doing.

    Updated: TSO’s interview is here – he’s about :45 into the video. He’s on his way.

  • What I’m reading today

    20070404_highres_color.jpg

    Stolen from The Jungle Hut

    I must be getting old – I’m only reading other people’s brilliant thoughts today from the blogs that link here.

    People like Van at Kesher Talk who is convinced that McCain will tap Lieberman for VP.

    People like my friend Kamangir the Archer – the most visible moderate Iranian I know – who rationally opposes Wilder’s Fitna. As opposed to the irrational Dutch moonbats who apologize for Fitna as reported by Gateway Pundit and Weasel Zippers. If you’re like the two or three people on the planet who haven’t see it yet, Moonbattery and Say Anything have it up on their servers. The Jawa Report writes that the Islamic Republic has summoned the Dutch ambassador – I wonder what they want now?

    Folks like my buddy Skye from Midnight Blue who climbed back up on the horse yesterday after being attacked last weekend by an irrational moonbat in Chester County.

    I got an email tip from the Milblogs this morning about the upcoming Bad Voodoo’s War from PBS and Andi’s got the teaser video.

    If you’re wondering what I think about the recent uptick in violence in Iraq, it’s best described at Neptunus Lex. The Iranians are trying to upend our elections with total disregard for Iraqi lives. al Sadr finally realized it this morning. Rick Moran at the Right Wing Nut House questions Maliki’s judgement. McQ at Q&O dissects the events leading up to the Basra battle and provides links. Haystack at Redstate catches the LA Times painting al Sadr as a poor victim in the latest flare up. The Lonely Sandpiper blames the Brits. I think it’s just Maliki’s version of the Whiskey Rebellion.
    The only woman with whom I agree all of the time (except my wife and my Mom), Beth at My Vast Right Wing Conspiracy posts John McCain’s first national campaign ad.

    Marooned in Marin (who is actually marooned in Northern Virginia these days) examines the rumor that while super-delegates decide between two candidates, the Democrats are plotting to throw all of the primary voters under the bus and just pick their favorite loser of all time. So much for the democratic part of their party. Mike Tippet at Wake Up America is thankful for the democrats’ biggest loser.

    Bob Parks at Outside the Wire examines a survey that declares there’s no indoctrination at our schools.

    In case anyone is wondering, Snapped Shot is still behaving himself.

    Solomon reviews and dissects the play “My Name is Rachel Corrie” at Solomonia.

    Spanish Pundit writes that Palestinian Christians are being harrassed by a fundamentalist Islamic mafia in the Holy Land.

    Wordsmith at Sparks From the Anvil writes about an Iraqi translator who was denied resident alien status.

    The Avid Editor claims (and rightly so) that we’re already at war with Iran.

    Wolf Howling has more links to other blogs for something different.

    Chicagoan Marathon Pundit, who seems to have something against an Obama Presidency, writes about Obama’s latest embellishment.

    And just go visit The Jungle Hut and Don Surber because they both exhibited exceptionally clear judgment by adding me to their blogrolls last night.

  • Saturday night must-reads

    I’ve got two cats sleeping on my lap and so all you get is links tonight;

    First, stop by and take at look at the Gathering of Eagles who were rewarded for braving the weather to support the military recruiters in Times Square by a visit from Pamela Gellar from Atlas Shrugs.

    Gaius at Blue Crab Boulevard writes on the absurdity of Hillary’s statement that she ended the hundreds of years of Britain’s war with the Irish.

    Jammie Wearing Fool writes about an idiot judge who disagrees with the war against terror, so she keeps a foster kid from enlisting. I’d always thought judges were supposed to lay aside their own bias when they rule – I must be wrong.

    The Liberty Pundit ties in yesterday’s job report to the only legislation the Democrats passed last year – the minimum wage.

    Gateway Pundit rounds up news on the death of the latest FARC leader found in pieces several miles apart.

Meanwhile, Flopping Aces writes that Hillary’s military advisor says she won’t pull troops out of Iraq. I’m beginning to see a pattern here.

    Crotchety Old Bastard compares Michele Obama’s speeches to Che Guevara’s “New Man” speech.

    GI Jane at The Foxhole tears up the Washington Post for their self-flagellating over their treatment of Muslims.

    Weasel Zippers writes on the Hamas admission that they’re supported by Iran – and I feign surprise.

    Dean Barnett at The Weekly Standard Blog writes that the New York Times will take a swipe at Barak’s Iraq policy tomorrow.

  • Links fit for a Full Moon

    All of the lunatics are out I guess;

    Michael Moore says we should invite the corpse of Fidel Castro to speak at the Oscars if he promises to keep it under 5 hours. “As long as he keeps it under five hours. I’m telling you, that’s got to be a ratings grabber.”

    Solomonia has the video of Cindy McKinney in hijab bashing the Jooos for her Muslim buddies.

    Ztruth reports Hussein Ibish, founder of the Foundation of Arab-American Leadership claims that bloggers are responsible for Muslim hatred these days – apparently they’d just got the media cowed and now all of these irresponsible independent journalists invoking that pesky 1st Amendment is screwin’ it up for them.

    Gateway Pundit writes that the St Louis Dispatch joins those Muslims in bashing his blog and Little Green Footballs’ Charles Johnson. Johnson posts an email exchange with the author.

    Chickenhawk Express dredges up an Indymedia report of a “guerilla action” against a recruiting station on 14th Street in DC.

    Flopping Aces‘ Curt writes that, of all people, Chris Mathews has exposed the ideological emptiness of the Obama campaign.

    SeeDubya‘s dad thinks the Obama campaign looks more a Nazi Rally than an American political campaign.

    Jammie Wearing Fool keeps inflation watch on Mgabe’s Zimbabwe – today’s tally; 100,000%.

    Gribbit compares Obama to Jim Jones with an assist from Halle Berry.

    PJ Comix at DUmmie FUnnies has video compilations of the Obama Fainting Brigades

    After all of that, click over to the McCain Blogette for more rational people wearing cheesehats.

  • Drivel roundup

    There’s just too much absurdity going on in the world for you to have to surf looking for it, so I’ve rounded up much of it for you tonight;

    An Old Broad’s Ramblings and Bob’s Blog have the video of some guy who obviously knows something the rest of us should know – otherwise, why would he admit to it? But then again – who knows these days?

    Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs has links to the stories of the latest in eight nights of violence in Denmark in expressions of false outrage.

    Drew M. at Ace of Spades and Brennan at the American Pundit both think that maybe Michele Obama is a little too self-centered to be comparing what is happening in her life today to what the rest of us were doing before she and her suit model came along.

    Bloodthirsty Liberal writes that village elders are outraged when women voters start voting at the women-only voting station.

    At Big Dog’s Weblog, Bill Clinton gives a lesson on “telling the truth”.

    Robin at Chickenhawk Express writes that a documentary is due out from PBS and Frontline on the Haditha incident. Speaking of Haditha, Redstate and Michele Malkin are looking for pigsuit wearers to show up at a Murtha payoff dinner in Pentagon City (I’d go if I can get a timeframe).

    Crotchety Old Bastard points us to the American Thinker‘s Ari Kaufman’s indisputable worst presidents list.

    Somehow, Kosovo independence invokes “down with America” chants according to Gateway Pundit.

    Jammie Wearing Fool reports 66,000% inflation in Zimbabwe. What did they expect with a Friend of Carter for president?

    Liberty Pundit found all you loser Patriot fans championship hats and shirts.

    Little Green Footballs reports on the Muslim Flat Earth Society.

    VanHelsing at Moonbattery writes that Brits have discovered the key to a successful socialized healthcare system – more ambulances and bigger parking lots.

    Bob Parks at Outside the Wire writes about former conservative Charles Barkley’s swipe at Christians.

    Sister Toldjah has all the relevant links for Obama/Che flag controversy while DUmmie FUnnies chronicles the KosKids stroking each other over how this won’t affect Obama. Spree writes that McCain leads Clinton and Obama in Florida. This could get interesting.

  • Officer cleared of Abu Gharaib charges

    The Wall Street Journal reports this morning that the only officer to face court martial charges in the Abu Gharaib incident had the major charges dismissed yesterday; (more…)
