Followed by an impassioned indictment of the environmental irresponsibility of the Rebel Alliance.

I think Letters from Kamp Krusty will become a new favorite . . .

Hug a home invader today

dwright — Fri, 13 Jul 2007 19:50:09 +0000

Quote from a Washington Post news story about an armed home invader.

Then he tucked the gun into the pocket of his nylon sweatpants.

“I think I may have come to the wrong house,” he said, looking around the patio of the home in the 1300 block of Constitution Avenue NE.

“I’m sorry,” he told the group. “Can I get a hug?”

A dog, a baby and the web as discourse sandbox

Click to see the photo sequence that culiminated in the cute photo above. Even better, read the comments below the photo sequence. The photo was good enough, but the comments are priceless. A volcano of internet debate erupts. Passionate attempts are made at convincing each other through reasoning that large dogs should or should not be allowed near small babies. Amidst the reasoning there is a hysterically funny flame war in which people accuse each other of potential manslaughter, call others pansies and sign off with “I killed Nazis with my bare hands.” Rich stuff.

Vice non-President

dwright — Tue, 26 Jun 2007 18:08:44 +0000

Vice President Cheney is claiming that he is not part of the executive branch (because he has no executive duties). His office has used this claim to exempt itself from an executive order requiring executive agencies to account for their handling of classified data. Apparently, the president agrees with this self-proclaimed exemption from presidential order (which the president himself renewed and updated).

This is rich stuff.

“Opinions you should have,” a political humor site goes with the idea that Cheney has effectively created a new branch of government. Best line:

The title of the [new] branch of government — and Mr. Cheney’s actual title — is classified.
