In Basra, Iraqi government forces have taken control of the "last bastions of the cleric Moktada al-Sadr's militia." In Baghdad, too, government troops killed militants presumably loyal to Sadr in Sadr City. In response to this string of setbacks, Sadr, the courageous cleric who is believed to be holed up somewhere in Iran, issued a "final warning" to the Iraqi government: give up, or else! Astonishingly,...

In the how-not-to-launch-a-business category we have Qtrax, an ad-supported peer-to-peer music download network that had supposedly signed deals with all four major record labels and was launching today with a catalog of 25 million songs. Only it doesn't seem to have those deals with the record labels after all. While Qtrax CEO Allan Klepfisz assures the world that this is all a misunderstanding and...

Obama to Trinity: Smell Ya Later

Barack Obama certainly doesn't need any more monkeys on his back while trying to lock up the presidential nomination and vanquish Hillary Clinton (a.k.a, The Black Knight ) once and for all. So after Rev. Pfleger's stunt last Sunday , when Pfleger made disparaging remarks about Clinton as a guest speaker at Trinity United Church of Christ, Obama has decided to sever all ties with the church. About...

A few months back, when my roomate was heavily covering the whole Ron Paul R[EVOL]ution, I would swing by a Ron Paul discussion forum every now and again to see what was on the minds of the Paulistas. As the Republican primary rolled on and it became clear that John McCain would be the nominee [...]

Oops, that's not the link, this is the link : It has been an article of faith for many years that humans are gradually destroying the environment, and are specifically responsible for global warming via man-made carbon emissions. On Monday, The Australian published results of a poll showing...

Preemption And Guerilla Warfare

The Legal Intelligencer has a story today about the preemption loss in Knipe v. SmithKline Beecham . Since that adverse decision has made its way into the legal version of “mainstream media,” that means, under our self-imposed guideline of “first, do no harm” to the defense position in such matters, we’re now free to blog about it. These restrictions also mean that we’ll probably never be the first...

What Do Loan Qualification Standards Accomplish?

If you don't know the answer to this, don't be embarrassed. Lots of alleged professionals forgot the answers to these questions for several years, if indeed, they ever knew. It seems like quite a few still don't know the answer Loan qualification standards measure whether or not you can afford a loan. By adhering to them, the lenders lower the default rates, and borrowers avoid getting into situations...

It is rather appropriate that the second largest savings and loan failure in history that of IndyMac Bank occurs here in Southern California. IndyMac is based out of Pasadena California, an upper-middle class city within the concrete jungle of the 88-city metropolis.

Fun times over at the elephant farm: It is time for all Republican leaders, from Hartford to Sacramento, but especially Washington, D.C., to zip their lips, pull up their socks, grab your baseball bats and get back on the field of battle. [...] The public expects Republicans to cut taxes and to win wars. We are the "grown up's party" for a reason. President Bush has not sold the war or the positive...

General online consensus this morning seems to be that Hillary Clinton has definitively lost the fight for the Democratic nomination. Yes yes, there are all kinds of problems with Hillary. But it is still a bit sad-making, and you can't help wondering how long it will be before another woman gets a chance at the presidency. Come along, girls, back to the kitchen. Not that she has formally withdrawn,...

Apollo Creed was the black World Champion and Rocky Balboa was the Great White Hope. The odds were 10 to 1 Rocky could beat the Champ. So he beat up on cow carcass and ate lots of raw eggs and tried not to have sex or drink or spend too much time thinking about anything but training for the big fight. Senator Clinton says she's not going to graciously admit defeat and withdraw from a race she can't...

The thread is about the blogger's article which was in response to the sanctimony around the comment. So, I maintain my original claim to irony.
