The vice president shot a man over the weekend.
What do you think he knows?
Obvious wisecrack out of the way. Now, a quick lazy one:
Dick Cheney hunting… blah blah shot a guy, thought the guy was a quail… something something, bad intelligence! Zing!

There are devout Muslims all over the world losing their minds right now over a cartoon.
Nice one. Even I know not to draw a picture of Mohammed, and I tried to wear high tops to my church wedding.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch is finally putting a little elbow grease into their web site, after years of being sort of begrudging and half-hearted about it. They used to distractedly post stories willy-nilly online (without preserving formatting or pictures, almost always with editor’s notes like “make this paragraph bold” still intact right in the story) […]

I am going to see the new Pink Panther tonight. It is going to be great, because I will not pay. Years from now, I will be saying, “I had a great time not paying at that movie.”

There are a lot of politics on this page. For now.
So I’m listening to the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Hearings on reading my goddamn mail the president’s domestic surveillance program, and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales is being asked to make a case for its legality. In doing so, the attorney general keeps referencing the fact that […]

Have I mentioned that the President’s party controls Congress pretty much completely, and that if he pushed for it– and didn’t even push all that hard– he could by 2008 make it illegal to build a car out of anything other than asparagus and potatoes? I bring this up only because the “four years is […]

To keep our economy growing, we also need reliable supplies of affordable, environmentally responsible energy…. Four years of debate is enough: I urge Congress to pass legislation that makes America more secure and less dependent on foreign energy. (Applause.)
-Bush, State of the Union Address 2005

Consumers and businesses need reliable supplies of energy to make our […]
