This is actually true: Speaker of the House Denny Hastert (R-IL) has started a blog. (First heard about it thanks to Wonkette.)
It’s outstanding.
Because in its very first entry, it confirms all of your very worst nightmares.
Is he unimpressive? Oh, my yes. On blogging:
Murray Waas posted this to the National Journal today. Have a read. But the first sentence gives the gist:
If Cheney and Libby tell the truth in 2004, more people realize the war started because they were full of crap.
And Bush doesn’t come close to re-election.
So throw that on the stack.
Not between Cheney, Rove, Libby, and, I dunno, Aeshma Daeva, the great fiend of ancient Persian myth. I’m hoping the whole story of how a multi-millennia-old Iranian demon from the Avesta manipulated the Vice President’s office will be in the indictments tomorrow.
Oh, wait. That was Ahmed Chalabi. I get them confused sometimes. Anyway.
Just pointing you again to the Center For Inquiry West and their performance space, the Steve Allen Theatre, with links permanently added down the left.
This might not seem germane to Harriet Miers and Karl Rove and so on. But the Center For Inquiry is devoted to rational thought and the fight against lunatic theocracy, largely because it often leads to grand human disaster.
So, um, if you look around… it’s pretty darn germane.
Plus, they do stuff in the theatre space that makes me laugh. So there’s that.
Apparently right-wingers under pressure begin using Title Case at the tops of their lungs.
Tom DeLay:
 What would be even more aggravating than a multi-millionaire U.S. Senator winning the lottery? |

Man, you guys really don’t like Paris Hilton: aparently she’s more than five times more aggravating just by being alive than a widely-believed-to-be double-knife-killer suddenly going all Beverly Hillbillies.
Fair enough.
OK, next question: how would Scottie McClellan and the right-wing noise machine spin things if some White House bigshot had been caught on camera holding up a liquor store with a machine gun?
New poll at upper left.
