Did this man know something he shouldn't?

I have to ask the question, because new information has come out about the shooting by London police of Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes.

I know I'm going to piss a lot of people off, but...

... Aren't we carrying this Cindy Sheehan thing just a little too far?

Christopher Walken: Redux

This country needs more cowbell, but it needs a Rolex up the pooper even more...

Christopher Walken

There's a big hoohah going on right now about whether or not Christopher Walken has announced his candidacy for president.

Shh! Quiet! I'm trying to listen to reason!

Dammit! Er, I mean, shucky-darn! I missed Justice Sunday II.

Watching The Watchers Dropping Out Of "Advertise Liberally"

If you look to the left of this, you will notice that the "Advertise Liberally" logo that was there has been removed. Here's why: I can't in good conscience be a member of an Ad network that is run by a political action comittee. It's just not in my nature.
