So Nice, He Said It Thrice

I think Bush himself gave Kerry a cry to rally around: "Wrong war, wrong place, wrong time." C'mon, Kerry; declare yourself the Anti-War Candidate and embrace it. McCain is shoveling more shit on his soul on MSNBC as I type this.

Drudge Hits Rock Bottom

Look what the poor thing's been reduced to.

We Spies, We Slow Hands

Allawi sounds like Bush's kind of guy. He's "cool," he's a terrorist, he's into the death penalty, he had a personal beef with Saddam, etc.

Irony

Bill O'Reilly, who makes people more stupid, condescends to Jon Stewart, who makes people more unstupid.

America 2004, Part II

Wow. It's almost funny, really.

Just for Jeremy

Here's an interesting theory on what the real story behind the Memos ia. Me fail English? See you in hell, Che Rather!

Drudge!

Matt Drudge takes your questions.

We Are the Quarry

Morrissey describes Bush pretty well on his (surprisingly good) new album:

Steely blue eyes
With no love in them
Scan the world
And a humourless smile
With no warmth within
Greets the world

Hope you enjoy the speech!

Tonight, the Coronation

I've had enough. Everyone's had enough. Fatigued. Wiped out. Sick of politics, sick of protesters, sick of wanting to spell "protesters" "protestors," sick of the Pigs. Sick of the Hate. Kerry speaks tonight at midnight; maybe he can class this shit up a bit. But I've had enough, and I think nearly everyone else has as well.

Here's the Daily Show GWB film from last night, in case you missed it. Words.

Need a Name

We need a name for these Zell Millers, Dennis Millers, Ron Silvers, etc... People who claim to have been centrists/lefties before 9/11, but are now sooooo scared of everything that they want to nuke the Middle East and elect GWB. They're the type of people who still build bomb shelters. Bomb Shelters Builders? Fucking Pussies? Evangelical Girlie Men?

On much of Hail to the Thief, Thom Yorke sounds like a guy sitting on his front lawn with a shotgun across his lap, while his wife and children sleep soundly inside. They're like that, only without any sense of irony, humanity, love. And they wouldn't move a fucking muscle if someone happened to come for the neighbors.

Free the RNC 1500

Forget anything nice I may have said about the cops. Or at least the people pulling their strings.

UPDATE from Nathan: Does this sound like a reasonable way to handle protestors?

If you were within a city block of the entrance to the NYC Library on Tuesday at about 5:30 pm, you were one of the estimated 1,200 people that ended up in a cage on a pier in Manhattan, waiting 12 hours before being given access to a phone, and more than 24 hours before being charged with anything. In most cases, this has amounted to being detained for 36+ hours (at least 12 hours longer that allowed by law here) and written a fucking ticket.

UPDATE from Dodgy: More from Central Booking.

"We're Terrific!"

What you're missing on Fox:

At the Fox network, the Republican convention is being covered like a happy birthday party for God, with the channel's right-leaning commentators and anchors hanging on for the joyride of their lives, all but turning cartwheels.

2006

Well, if the election goes to shit, we'll have this to look forward to.

And so much more here.
