I’m still on vacation, and still working with a microscopic keyboard that has a space bar that is dysfunctional in two directions. Either no spaces at all, or too many. Forgive the messy typing. It’s too difficult to fix.
Question for you? What is it with the radical left and nudity? Zombie caught a Breasts not Bombs protest at Hillary’s San Francisco campaign headquarters, and I really had to ask myself what the breasts had to do with things. Also, if we’re going to have exhibitionists, why can’t attractive people be the ones doing it?
We pulled over to a park today to have a picnic. There was a large covered area, filled with picnic tables and there were lots of picnickers — only none of them were using the tables, they were all crouched the wind on the spikey grass. Why? Because two extremely drunk homeless men had set themselves up in the middle of the picnic area. They were loud, smelly and, to anyone with sense, potentially dangerous. They double-handedly managed to turn a whole area off-limits. I thought of them when I read about Gavin Newsom’s travails with the homeless and the druggies in Golden Gate Park. What no good liberals want to admit is that a few smelly winos or druggies can ruin a park, library or neighborhood for hundreds or even thousands of people. Their impact is far disproportionate to their numbers.
D.M. Giangreco warns us that we can expect the Islamists to create a Tet offensive just in time for General Petraeus’ report. While the military will understand what is happening, the media won’t, and will surrender just as they did with the original Tet offensive.
With regard to the two border guards convicted for committing a crime using a weapon, even though the weapon is part of his job, Earl has done a good job of defending his belief that the prosecutor was overly zealous and that his tactics are dangerous in terms of prosecutorial decency and honesty. Earl directed me to a post that examines reforms that would end prosecution power plays and potentially clean-up our criminal justice system.
And on that note, I’m signing off for another 24 hours or so. Having read DQ’s great question about the Judeo-Christian God and Jihad, I know you’re in good hands.
