The website where I get them from is run by a woman http://cherryland.home.insightbb.com/sitemap2.htm. There are a whole bunch of these dollz sites and they aren't run by men.

Ah, so you're a pedophile too?

Hale Found Guilty of Murder Solicitation

CHICAGO — White supremacist leader Matthew Hale (search), whose gospel of "racial holy war" was linked to a follower's deadly shooting rampage five years ago, was found guilty Monday of trying to have a federal judge killed.

Hale, 32, was found guilty of four of the five charges against him. He was found not guilty of one of two counts of soliciting the murder of a federal judge. The judge was not attacked.

Prosecutors said Hale was furious after U.S. District Judge Joan Humphrey Lefkow (search) ordered him to stop using the name World Church of the Creator. Lefkow had ordered Hale to stop using the name because it had been trademarked by an Oregon-based religious group that has no ties to Hale.

Hale sat with his hands clasped on the table as the verdicts were read. He dipped his head slightly but showed no other reaction.

Hale never testified during the two-week trial, and chief defense counsel Thomas Anthony Durkin called no witnesses, saying the prosecution's evidence was the weakest he had seen in a major case.

The defense argued that Hale never asked anyone to kill the judge and that the FBI (search) used an informant to draw him into a murder plot.

During the trial, jurors heard more than a dozen tapes of Hale using racial slurs, including one in which he laughs about the 1999 shooting rampage by one of his followers, Benjamin Smith. Smith targeted minorities and killed two people, including former Northwestern University basketball coach Ricky Byrdsong.

Well, my guess is that NM is a chick based on this statement alone. And also the bit about Ann Taylor clothes which not many men would know about - I have some size "O"'s in the closet; how retarted that the company thinks wearing a zero makes women feel good. Anyhow - NM's right** with the Dollz thing. Couldn't resist my new avatar.

**Though I mostly ignore NM after em revealed her ignorance in the bit about people on these boards treating TM nicer because he's black. Duh!

You probably underestimate the number of men who get dragged into Ann Taylor.

• Asked if the insurgencies in Iraq could have been avoided by deploying more troops in the country and hunting down Hussein's loyalists and militia members right after last year's invasion by the coalition, Rumsfeld said: ``Well, I guess we'll never know for sure.''
  
  The fear was that sending too many troops would be ``seen as flooding the country'' with an occupying force, said Rumsfeld at today's press conference. ``That is not to say we're not facing problems now, which we are.''

That motherfucking moron.

Sure, the various Iraqis will be less pissed that we've bombed them out, overthrown the government, occupied their nation and control their daily life if we do it WITH FEWER TROOPS.

Hmmm. Could be . . .

Damn -- if we'd occupied them with 250K U.S. troops, I bet they'd be REALLY mad now.

Of course, this all begs the question of whether the U.S. really could have mustered or sustained a much larger occuppying force. It's not the size of our force that bothers me so much as the idiotic rationale Rumsfeld enunciated for not having made it larger (if true).

Not rationale. Rationales. We also just don't need that many people with modern warfare.

I thought his first line was great. ("What if . . . ?" "Well, we don't know, do we?")

But, more importantly:

The Village Voice, that bulwark of conservative thought, calls for the Democratic Party to drop Kerry as the nominee.

Anyone object to the doll in the thong in my siggy? If she is not work appropriate I can replace her with the red doll. Vote now or forever hold your peace.

Wow, great how he doesn't do that Clintonesque "depends what 'is' means" stuff and instead deals with the substance and not the form.

And they are saying it's because Kerry's too damn liberal for them! Shocking!!!

From Dave Pell's electablog:

I hate to give Republicans more fodder for this campaign to discredit Kerry's military service (clearly he should have been snorting coke and driving drunk stateside where he belonged). But in the spirit of fairness, we should take a closer look at the picture of Kerry on his swift boat to further analyze his so-called tour of duty.

1. While we've been led to believe that this photo was taken somewhere along the Mekong Delta, a closer analysis of the water leads one to the almost certain conclusion that this is actually Pine Acres Lake in Windham County (interestingly, not all that far a drive from Yale).

2. Big mistake here. Check the watch. Look at the glare of the sun. Folks, we're definitely talking eastern standard time.

3. The hair is a dead giveaway. Anyone who can tell the difference between a blow-dryer and a flat-iron can plainly see that this is the early work of soon-to-be stylist to the stars Jose Eber.

4. That doesn't look like tobacco to me.

5. The belt, the camouflage pants. All very convincing. Unfortunately, the wardrobe consultant offers us just another example of laziness. To this very day, anyone can buy a pair of the same pants at Old Navy.

6. The thickness of these glasses suggest that this guy would never have been eligible for service. In fact, many in the Bush administration now believe that the guy wearing the glasses was actually a professional photographer in charge of the shoot who set the camera on timer and then ran over to get in the shot.

7. Behind Kerry's hip, we see the most obvious giveaway. Behind the fake ammo, we can see (using the latest viewing technology) a picnic basket filled with champagne, baguettes, brie and truffles.
