All Hail Empress Condi!!

Monday, February 28th, 2005

I don’t know why, but this recent photo of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice made me think of FrankJ’s In My World feature.

Here’s a sample:
Condi’s Coup
Chomps stared at the control panel. It made him mad. “Grrrow!” he growled as he attacked it.
“Self destruct in 10… 9… 8…” said a pleasant computerized voice.
Rice ran over to [...]

Every once and a while, my real job infringes upon my ability to blog. The tail end of last week and part of this week is one of those times. Please forgive the light posting. As soon as possible, I’ll get back to the regular schedule.

Thursday, February 24th, 2005

You want Bizarre? Here’s bizarre:
CHICAGO (AP) A woman accused of using her lover’s sperm to impregnate herself without his knowledge can be held liable for the unwitting father’s emotional pain, the Illinois Appellate Court has ruled.

Update #4: Ward Churchill

Thursday, February 24th, 2005

Michelle Malkin has some recordings of remarks Churchill made in August of 2003 in Seattle. You must hear them to appreciate how totally unfit this guy is to be instructing young people at any college. Excerpt:
If you are Arab, for example, you are automatically profiled as a potential terrorist. Period. And you can be asked [...]

Update #3: Ward Churchill

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2005

It seems that Ward Churchill, a man who has claimed Native American ancestry, has finally admitted what we all knew:
Churchill did address the issue of his ethnicity, admitting that he is not Native American.
“Is he an Indian? Do we really care?” he said, quoting those he called his “white Republican” critics.
“Let’s cut to the chase; [...]

The “Ward Churchill Effect”

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2005

Those of you wondering why I was so upset over Ward Churchill and his ilk being the type of people who educate our children need only read this:
An American soldier overseas is fuming over letters he received from Brooklyn middle-school children accusing GIs of destroying mosques and killing civilians in Iraq.
Pfc. Rob Jacobs of [...]

Getting Some Perspective

Friday, February 18th, 2005

Ben Stein give us all a little perspective at the American Spectator:
Meet Corporal John Quinones, whose family I brought out to L.A. for a little vacation a few weeks ago. He was home on leave from nineteen months in Iraq after six months in Afghanistan. He’s 25 years old. He was in the reserves, [...]

Today’s Sign of the Apocolypse

Friday, February 18th, 2005

When I was a kid (in the late 60’s and through the 70’s) everyone I knew watched Bugs Bunny cartoons. Of course we watched them because they were terrific examples of physical comedy. Some of those cartoons have become classics (like Bugs and Elmer Fudd at the opera).
Well, it seems that nothing is sacred in [...]

Hillary Watch

Hillary has got another one of her “good ideas” coming up for a vote:

She also pushed for legislation that would allow all ex-felons [...]

Search Terms

Thursday, February 17th, 2005

Once in awhile, I go through the access stats for the blog to see what terms people are using in search engines to get to my site. It is always amusing to see what phrases point them to Conservative Dialysis. Here are some of the latest:
