A rare, non-Kenya round-up...well, almost.
While President Bush meets with Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen in Crawford, Texas, a Crawford grandma almost turns a Danish report into Swiss cheese. The whining in the comments is hilarious. (Thanks to Memorandum)
That lady isn’t the only grandma who needs to be monitored more closely by her offspring.
Barack Obama praises Senator Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) for reading the NIE and voting against the Iraq War Resolution. One problem with this: Rockefeller voted yea on the resolution.
Christopher Hitchens departs pleasantly from political fare and enumerates some of the hazards of being a bibliophile. I empathize and have another one to add in a subsequent post.
Having been originally handed the novel No Country for Old Men by his wife, Actor and Conservative Brotherhood member Joseph C. Phillips reviews the Oscar-nominated movie. Observes Phillips: “There is clearly a side to my wife that I do not know.” Good going, Mrs. Phillips!
Oh the Humanity! (Blame Nice Deb)
I bet when someone looks up USMC or Marine in an encyclopedia, that there’s a photo of this guy. Well done, sir.
The Moderate Muslim—not so mythical after all. Michael Totten:
Almost no mention is given to the Kurds of Iraq who are just as Islamic as the Arabs in that country, and who purged Islamists root and branch from every inch of their autonomous region. “We will shoot them or break their bones on sight,” one Kurdish government official told me. More people have been murdered by Islamists in Spain than in their region of Iraq in the last five years. Such people can hardly be thought of as passive.
And finally, a missing perspective on the Obama-in-Somali-garb flap, from a Newsday columnist named Katti Gray—another black woman who chooses to look like herself. Read the first comment also.
UPDATE: Ouch! (Psst! Dude, they have cordless phones!)
