Other than bungling the capture of Bin Laden, wrecking the economy, breaking the Army in Iraq, and fucking up the Katrina recovery, he’s doing a GREAT job!
There’s a reason Jonah Goldberg is called the Pantload. Take a gander at the latest LA Times column he’s fished from his adult diaper: LORD KNOWS I have my problems with President Bush. He taps the federal coffers like a monkey smacking the bar for another cocaine pellet in an addiction study. Some of his [...]

It’s a slow blogging couple of days for me, because I’m run down, but I wanted to expand on a comment I left over at pandagon in reference to PETA. Julian Elson said this: I’ve heard about PETA’s sexism before, but mainly from anti-porn feminists. I assume that opposition to soft porn and innuendo isn’t [...]

For the past several weeks, and also the next several weeks, I am looking through a document production to figure out just what the hell went wrong between our client and the company they supplied material to. Most of this involves looking through emails written by the purchasing manager of the vendee, a man whose [...]

We’ve seen the kind of woman that Hollywood and Details magazine deems “fat” and worthy of being represented by the image of a pig’s ass wearing heels — such noted porkers as Kristin Davis, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Rachel Weisz and a Butterfield 8-era Elizabeth Taylor. Now, apparently Katie Couric is getting the oinker treatment by her [...]

No matter how upscale the party, pigs in blankets are the most popular nosh.

The number of female clerks to Supreme Court justices has dropped into the single digits for the first time since 1994. I’m sure that this is just a random mutation. And I’m sure that it’s equally as random a mutation that Justice Scalia has had a grand total of two female law clerks over the [...]

An interesting article in the New York Times today about women leading the return to religious conservatism in fairly secular Syria. In other corners of Damascus, women who identify one another by the distinctive way they tie their head scarves gather for meetings of an exclusive and secret Islamic women’s society known as the Qubaisiate. [...]

That pill price hike? Rolled back. Though by how much, they’re not saying. Teenage Vermonsters will be able to get Plan B over the counter thanks to a state law. The law originally provided for over-the-counter sales for all women just in case the FDA dragged its feet again, but now only applies to women [...]

Tim McVeigh got snagged because of a broken taillight. Now fugitive polygamist tyrant Warren Jeffs, leader of the scary-ass FLDS polygamist sect and resident of the FBI’s Most Wanted list for really longer than he should have been, has been caught outside Las Vegas. The other two people in the vehicle were identified as one [...]

That was the title of an email sent to me by the good folks at Embargo Wells Fargo (I’m not including the link — if you’re desperate to see the website and drive up their traffic, it’s embargowellsfargo-dot-com), who are boycotting Wells Fargo because they have the audacity to not ask about the legal status [...]

The Times has a wonderful Op-Art feature (scroll down to “Op-Art: A Flood of Images”) commemorating the anniversary of Katrina. The Times asked artists who either lived in New Orleans or spent considerable time there to draw and write about places of particular importance to them in the city.

Several people, during the whole Forbes career woman debacle last week, expressed the suspicion that the whole thing was done to drive traffic to the site. Not a very well-thought-out plan, surely, considering that some 35% of Forbes subscribers are female, and quite likely the very career women that Michael Noer was warning the male [...]
