A Tribute

Cat Daddy & Dr. Squeeky has a very fitting tribute to Steve Irwin.

Where is Count Floyd

Minou of French Tidbits has about had it with banking during the Wars on Nouns.

Cash seizures have led to the absurdity of the US v. $124,700 [PDF]: the assumption by courts that the only reason for large sums of cash is drug dealing.

Patrick at Fire Dog Lake is getting really tired of the national panic attack, which everything comes to a grinding halt because of the discovery of containers of H2O and tubes containing H2O2 and NaHCO3 [as in water bottles and toothpaste with hydrogen peroxide and baking soda].

[Those who have missed it, check out Count Floyd.]

All Munich, All The Time

The BBC had a segment this morning discussing the fact that the US has refused to talk directly with Iran. In opposing direct talks Frank J. Gaffney, Jr. of The Center for Security Policy immediately compared talking to Iran to the Chamberlain-Hilter meeting in Munich.

Apparently someone passed out the 3X5 card to cover for the disaster that is the Shrubbery’s foreign policy, and the only thing on it is the Munich meeting. Withdrawal from Iraq – Munich; talk to Iran – Munich.

It is probably not a coincidence that Gaffney, and others of his ilk, avoid fora where they would be required to provide citations for their claims, and examples of the success of their proposed policies.

CNN reports the capture of al Qaeda’s #2 in Iraq.

Al Qaeda would appear to have more #2’s than Eberhard Faber.
