Sorry about the light blogging. I've been sick and trying to sleep it off. It's not working too well. The cats come up every so often and paw at my face until I give them Friskies treats, the dogs appear to have gone on Molecule Watch, and warn me whenever one seems to be sneaking up on me. The crows decided today would be a good day to hang out right outside my bedroom window, telling jokes. I could murder them.


"The attack has been spectacular"
"Given that thousands of Iraqis and more than 200 Americans have already lost their lives (even as US soldiers are ambushed and murdered daily) and that the illegal occupation of Iraq is expected to last somewhere between 5 and 60 years, weighing the consequential trauma of Monica's soiled blue dress against the long-term consequences of Bush Doctrine-related fabrications is like wondering if Martha Stewart is as criminally diabolical as John Wayne Gacy." -

The Moron-in-Chief's chief enablers
"Today, as the fruitless search for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq continues and the White House claim that Saddam Hussein posed an imminent threat to America seems more dubious by the day, more questions are being raised in Congress about President Bush's tendency to mislead and deceive. Many journalists, though, seem less interested in being the watchdog than in assuring Americans that Bush hasn't lied about central issues like war and peace. Instead, he's simply exaggerated." - Eric Boehlert, in Salon.
