Rep. Mark Kirk, R-In The Navy, candidate for Obama’s former Senate seat (Roland Burris who???) has been outed. Not only did he over-inflate his military service and awards, as a Navy Reservist he voted against repealing Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. Say buh-bye to your base and that office in the Senate office building now, Rep. Kirk. That ship has sailed Tippa da hat to Pam’s House Blend. BlogActive: Real Truth, Direct Action It was early 2004 when I was at a social gathering on Capitol Hill. I’m guessing there were 35-40 people present, including the guy who brought me as…

This is an older video, I was just testing whether the YouTube embed code from their main site (resized to 480×385) works better here and on the iPhone than the plugin I’ve been using. It’s a string on a stick! Woo!

Dear Wally (nobody ever called you Edward except your dad, and the Army), A lot has happened since 1968. Your two daughters have grown up, and you’re a name on a smoothly polished, black granite wall in Washington DC . They’ve both struggled a bit (maybe because you were taken away from them far too soon) but seem to be fine now. You’re a grandfather, can you believe it? Neither can I. In fact, you have an amazing step-daughter and a couple of cute step-grandkids; you know how the living always say “life goes on,” and it did. I never…

It will be interesting to see what my nephew will have to say about his experiences when he gets back from his trip to Israel. He’s a history student currently, but I don’t know if he’s a student OF history; doubt if he’s made the connection that my online acquaintance Mad Priest did. BBC News – Deaths as Israeli forces storm Gaza aid ship More than 10 people have been killed after Israeli commandos stormed a convoy of ships carrying aid to the Gaza Strip, the Israeli army says. Armed forces boarded the largest vessel overnight, clashing with some of…

Candidate Tim D’Annunzio, running for Congress in NC, is so far gone in religious mania that the local GOP is circulating docs from his divorce to show how much crazy he brings. His prayers were not answered, he’s in a runoff, we’ll need more popcorn. Christ’s War: A Simple Choice. Most of his blogposts consist of lengthy Bible quotes, but his beliefs tend toward the “watched too much Stargate while obsessively highlighting texts in the KJV” end of the spectrum. His political statements are quite possibly the most seriously disturbing views I’ve ever seen made public by a viable candidate.…

It’s harder than I thought to donate my recently-shorn hair to the charity that turns hair and pet fur clippings into oil-spill booms. They require that you sign up first, then wait to be sent an address for shipping. And they really discourage individuals from donating; they prefer bulk shipments from salons and groomers. Meanwhile their storage facilities are getting backed up near the Gulf, as BP didn’t want to accept the donated booms. The hell? So maybe they’ll send straight to the Louisiana Wetlands people?
