[UPDATED 2004 MDT] And here’s a great political cartoon posted over at Gateway Pundit: Finally, I actually really like this photo of John McCain (in an Addams Family sort of way): Apparently, this photo was taken by a (Democratic) photographer in hopes of getting The Atlantic to use it on its cover.

Great word: “bibliophibians”. Swap the genders of the two people in the Wondermark strip below, and you’ll capture the essence of many conversations that Sandra and I have had over the years (click on the strip to go to the full-sized original): The difference being, of course, that Sandra and I started out together with […]
…or at least cluelessness, the Obama campaign released (on TV) today an ad that, among other things, mocks McCain for not using e-mail or knowing how to use a computer, presumably because he’s so old (another theme of the ad). Here’s the ad itself (if it’s still up on YouTube): Personally, I think it’s a […]

A plaintive cry for help from the tree-sitters in Berkeley: Hat tip to Little Green Footballs. ..bruce w..
I remember this ad (and remember wanting this gun): On the other hand, my parents did get me both a BB rifle and an air pistol that shot BBs, pellets, and pointed metal darts (I kid you not; I think this is it here). So it all evens out. Hat tip to the Borderline Sociopathic […]
The discriminating Left
I’m starting to lose track here, but I think that the Democratic/Left/mainstream media attacks on McCain and Palin are coming close to running the full gamut of classes protected by US civil rights laws (see also here). Let’s see: Race/color Obama’s campaign (and Obama himself) has continually raised race as an issue in this campaign, […]
