The NYT reports on efforts by FCC Chair and Superdouche, Kevin J Martin, to persuade Congress that his regulatory agency needs even broader authority to regulate television content.
No longer content to dole-out bandwidth like a Dickensian gruel-meister and prosecute broadcast networks for daring to expose children to the horrors of the occasional breast, the FCC […]
I was going to post about the content of this piece in today’s Express-News, but I can’t even force myself to read the whole thing. It’s about a possible voucher program for special-ed kids, which seems like a damn fine idea, but I’m not here to talk about that. I’m here to talk about […]
Radley Balko at The Agitator points to this incredibly powerful video from Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, a 5,000 member organization of former law-enforcement personel who are now against the War on Drugs. He’s trying to get a blog-burst going to get these guys some much needed attention. Maybe if this group of former […]
I have been in the “blogosphere” as it is called for a pretty long time. I’ve read Instapundit since a few months after its launch, I’ve been blogging on the Commentator site since late 2002. At one point I read upwards of 60 blogs a day. Now I read five, and Drudge […]
It’s a safe bet that I’m some sort of political junky. As such, I tend to read a lot of political magazines. A lot. Well, okay, I primarily read Reason, but time permitting I’ll gladly pick up TNR, The Atlantic, and a host of others. There are also those I know […]
Because I am cheap, I signed up for the Serenity Blogger Bonanza.
This post has been edited to show the requirements of getting into the damn thing. Original post, made while I was still in excited fan-boy mode is below the cut. Pasted below is the email, in full, I recieved from […]
Go to hell, Spitzer. Go. To. Hell.
There’s a goddamn difference between, I dunno, beating your spouse/girlfriend and a couple of co-eds slapping each other for cash. If you’re too goddamn stupid to see that, well, don’t go fining radio stations. Some DJs, appealing to the lowest-common-denominator, try to give away […]
Washington Post:
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon on Friday released new details about mishandling of the Quran at the Guantanamo Bay prison for terror suspects, confirming that a soldier deliberately kicked the Muslim holy book and that an interrogator stepped on a Quran and was later fired for “a pattern of unacceptable behavior.”
In other confirmed incidents, a […]
Newsweek, a publication I’ve largely ignored for years, has published a false story about US forces at Gitmo “desecrating the Koran”. As expected, it has blown up. And understandably so, such inaccuracy is dangerous. Doubly so with respect to US endevours abroad. I’m sure the guys at Powerline are going nuts.
As […]
