Not in a couple of years.
Sure, my hemp-fueled drum circle at the coffee shop would read and discuss the best things that Paul Krugman and David Brooks would write that week to bring down the Bush Administration, but when they put it all behind the TimesSelect firewall, Atticus, Ty, GGG, club and I decided that caving in to this brazen act of imperialistic capitalism would not stand, man, not when it exceeds the prices of the half-caf latte.

Whither summary judgment?

Happy 61, President GW Bush!
Happy Happy Birthday President George W. Bush, our nation’s fearless Commander in Chief!!!! And many many more.
In this open and free forum I want to state that I thank G-d everyday that I voted for you. TWICE. And may the Lord take pity on the pathetic socialist loser-haters who you defeated (Gore and Kerry).
Also, let me state here I would gladly see the 22nd Amendment repealed or temporarily suspended by you so that I could happily vote for you again over the likes of a Chi-Com operative like Hillary Clinton or the inexperienced B. Hussien Obama.
Also, further, a big Birthday Thank You! President Bush for:
1. Your swift and decisive response to the horrific act of war on 9/11 and our defensive offensive in the Global War on Terror; and
2. Your deft military leadership as CinC in the liberation of Afghanistan and Iraql and
3. Your unwaivering prosecution of the Global War on Terror, in spite of the cut and run defeatists and the global Euro-socialist appeasers and other Islamofacist supporters who seek our destruction; and
4. Your steadfast leadership of the free world, with your junior partner, the dearly departed Tony Blair, undeterred by roadblocks of hatred as put forth by the cowardly and the bigoted liberals; and
5. Your tax cuts and flawless leadership of our great free market capitalist economic ship; and
6. Your most excellent appointment of two fine conservative scholars to the Supreme Court, who will guaranty that your legacy of right wing leadership carries forward for generations; and
7. Your committed leadership to upstanding and righteous Judeo-Christian values and your example of being a righteous G-d fearing man of Bible; and
8. Your brave life-saving and affirming leadership of the pro-life position in our battle against the culture of death and infanticide of the liberals; and
9. Your courageous pardon of Scooter Libby; and
Finally, I wish to thank my fellow patriots in the Red States of America for having expressed the will of the People (and G-d’s divine wishes) in the only polls that count, the Presidential elections of 2000 and 2004!!!.
Happy birthday, Mr. President! History will record that you were a truly great and inspirational Leader, one of the best Presidents to date!

It looks like we can get bi-partisan support for repealling the 22nd Amendment - let's get to it!

Every time I get really down on this POTUS, someone reminds me how much worse it really could be.

Bear With Me
OK, I've been watching/listening to some of the Live Earth concert slash propaganda and I am left with a question:
What do the"greens" propose be done re energy in Asia?
Fossil fuels are supposedly bad. Coal, which is what Asia burns in quantity is undoubtedly bad. Damming gorges is protested against because animal habitats, ancient small villages, and historical preservation is considered more important than free, clean water power. So, what choices are there? Wonderful as wind power and solar power may someday be, they cannot currently satisfy 3 billion people in Asia.
The only answer is nuclear, but the same morons who clamor for "new policies" can only offer Asia (and its people who want cars, and air conditioning, and Nintendo) pallatives. I have just suffered through hours of inanities about how I can effect climate change. No, China has passed us in greenhous emissions and the discrepancy is only going to grow. The question is how do you prevent 3 billion people in emerging Asian economies from doing what only 200 million Americans did in the last century?
Unless fusion energy works out, there is no answer, other than culling the herd. There is no amount of being "green" that can support a human population (eating well, i.e. no starvation) of 10 billion. It is a closed system. No matter how efficient we get in food production, etc., we are stuck recirculating the same amounts of protein, nitrogen, vitamins, etc. There is a reason tuna are disappearing - they were at sustainable levels when only a couple hundred thousand people ate them - but when sushi becomes popular and attainable to billions, well duh.
So it is either Soylent Green or we need population control. Fuck Until There's A Cure - let the sick die (and stop paying to pretend we can keep them alive) and encourage the intentionally ignorant (smokers, McDonald's eaters) to join them. And, as for crippled children, I support Make A Wish, and I will give you a ticket to a Kansas City Chiefs game if you just fucking die and get off the dole. IQ tests to reproduce. No more tax benefits for children, tax penalties. Inundate Africa and Asia with condoms, secretly covered with sterilizing gel. Ready to eat packs containing sterilizing agents dropped all over the world. And this unconsented to sterilization is justified because we are saving the planet, damnit, Janet.
If you still don't believe I am green, I propose that if you want to by beluga caviar (a disappearing species), you have to take a blind taste test that proves you can tell the difference between oestra, sevruga, and beluga. If you fail, your name goes in a national "Save Mother Earth and All Her wonerful Species" registry, and if you try to buy beluga again, its public evisceration on the rack. Crimes against Earthanity.

And I forgot to mention that the Eurogreens are against foods that have been engineered to, say, grow in sub-Saharan Africa.
Oh, the hypocracy.

Putting it more succinctly, the profits should go towards developing nuclear energy in developing countries.
But instead it will do as much to prevent 'claimate change" as Farm Aid to help small farmers and Live Aid did to prevent starvation. But I the NGOs need the money, so ...
