Steve over at #!/usr/bin/geek makes a great catch in his viewing of 60 Minutes.
Head on over there and have a look at what he found.
Keep on spreadin’ that propaganda

Well folks I just flat out missed The Lancet’s cluster survey (registration required) of Iraqi civilian deaths.
Others, however, have not.
Stageleft, for instance, quotes them at face value (and to do him justice, he does say that the numbers are higher than he would have guessed). The information he used came from a CBC story.
Now, [...]
Vote for Our Dad!

I’m not the world’s biggest fan of Barbara and Jenna Bush. I thought they were a bit juvenile back at the convention, for example.
Apparently, though, the days on the campaign trail have been good for them. The latest ad by the Bush campaign shows two pretty, intelligent, poised young women who have one [...]
There Are No Atheists In Foxholes….

Well, that’s not exactly true, now is it?
On the other hand, that’s what came to mind when I read this story over at MedPundit regarding a noticable shift in the actions of her patients.
There seems to be a subtile (nuanced perhaps?) but growing shift away from Kerry and toward Bush in these last days before [...]
Paying for KerryCare
MickC @ October 28, 2004 # No Comment Yet
A reader over at MedPundit has figured out how John Kerry will pay for his major expansion of Medicare:
If you wondered how John Kerry intended to deliver on his pledge of no tax increases while at the same time saving Social Security, providing universal health care, increasing the size of the military, cutting the deficit, [...]

I just set Judy Vernon up with a WordPress blog over on the Coryell County GOP website.
Y’all run over and say “Howdy.”
Did the Guardian violate the law?

[Please note as I begin this post that I am not an attorney and even if I were a member of the Bar here in Texas I would most certainly not be a solicitor in the United Kingdom of England, Scotland, and Ireland. Therefore, all of the legal opinion which follows is that of [...]
The Guardian Apologizes
MickC @ October 24, 2004 # 9 Comments
On the Guardian’s site today instead of the horrid Charlie Booker column that has been made so much of which ended “John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley Jr - where are you now that we need you?”.
The final sentence of a column in The Guide on Saturday caused offence to some readers. The [...]
Looking for the latest in anti-spam law?
MickC @ October 23, 2004 # No Comment Yet
I do consulting for attorneys on Internet issues. More precisely, I consult with attorneys who are suing or looking to sue spammers. I help bring them up to date on the current state of the law, the latest legal theories used to successfully bring spammers to justice.
That’s why one of Aunty Spam’s latest [...]
There’s Protest and Then There’s Over the Line

The Arizona Daily Wildcat has a story up about two people trying to put a pie in Ann Coulter’s face.
Two jerks really and the story therefore isn’t that remarkable. So, why mention it here?
Because of the shrill tone taken by liberals these days. If you have a look at the picture taken of [...]
