Mukasey Responds (not to his fainting)

Wall Street Journal houses Mukasey’s response to the recent federal court order to release 5 detainees (see previous post.)

Union Square no longer site of free speech and activism

EFF explains the story here.  Techdirt catches on.

It seems as though parody servicing the bread and circus agenda is “fair use” while parody attempting to educate is less fair.

And so it Begins

5 detainees released.

Cheney and Gonzalez indicted for prisoner abuse.

And, FoxNews.com’s “Most Read” story.

Gitmo Aftermath

Scott Hornton turned me on to this report.  The report is from The Human Rights Center of the University of California.

This found through Andrew Sullivan.  Hilarious.

Blogs on the Right: Death of Neo-Conservatism et al

I found a very interesting article, which sounds like–to me–an alarm sounding the end of neo-conservatism.  I’ve said this to a few people before, but I really do believe that people are finally waking up to the idea that neo-conservatism was not conservatism at all.  You can’t support all that neo-conservatism put forth as policy AND cut taxes without a HUGE deficit every year.  Look at the deficit we have now.  These are neo-conservative ideals at work.  Good riddance.

Also, are “multilateralism” and “globalism” really just words Europe uses to establish themselves as a superpower?  Obama’s first test in the White House.

Bitter.

A thoughtful article on the outlook of immigration over the next few terms.

Finally, probably one of the worst conspiracy theories I have ever heard.

Good Morning!

UPDATE:

Regarding the “worst conspiracy theory” post.  Another view.

Karl “Gracious” Rove.

Dealing perpetually with Bushist foul-ups.

AND FINALLY, THE FUNNIEST ARTICLE I’VE READ ALL WEEK.

HAPPY FRIDAY.
