Hugo Chavez, A Brief Roundup

I’ve been reading a bit about our old friend Hugo Chavez. Thought I would provide a couple links to what others are saying.
Fred Fry thinks that the potential sale of F-16s from Venezuela to Iran is a non-starter.
The Devil’s Excrement provides a photo montage suggesting the same conclusion as Fry. The blog has [...]

Just Two Guys: Guy Kewney/Guy Goma

The BBC though it was interviewing Guy Kewney, of newswireless.net, for a segment on the Apple trial. But no, it was actually Guy Goma, who was at the BBC that day to apply for a job in their IT department.
The video is priceless.

  
  
The mix-up occurred when a producer went to collect the expert from [...]

kaavya viswanathan apologist = idiot

keeping with our “idiot” theme….
my radio was tuned to 104.3 (“K-BIG 104”) in LA a week ago, where, commenting on katie couric’s tough interview* on the harvard sophomore, a writing expert said she was disappointed with our tendency in america to “gang up” on people when they’re down.
i had to laugh. plagiarism [...]

NSA Gets Phone Records

I heartily support the NSA monitoring every international call made between a known terrorist (or even a suspected terrorist) abroad and a U.S. resident. That policy just seems to make complete sense, despite what self proclaimed “civil libertarians” say.
But now we learn that the NSA is being given millions of phone records for domestic [...]

podhoretz/hawkins discuss why i despair

podhoretz, as quoted at RWN:

“(T)he president is losing support from conservatives and Republicans. There are all sorts of theories about why this is true, like how they don’t like his spending plans and don’t like his immigration policies. Fine, but he had the same immigration plan in 2004 and spent like a sailor in his [...]

A Challenge to Readers

Many of you have noticed the inevitable effect that Argentina has had on me. Specifically, the motherland of Che Guevara has turned me into a squishy liberal…or perhaps better put, a squishy Bush/GOP supporter. I’m probably more conservative/libertarian for living here.
Hence, I throw down the gauntlet to my fellow conservatives:
Name 5 solid conservative [...]

Current Time on Google

I search for the current time a lot since the first result in Google takes me to a page telling me the time of whatever city I’m searching. For example,
current time Buenos Aires
will give me a search result that, after clicking through, tells me current time here in Argentina.
Well, Google is now giving the [...]

Doug: Blog Psychic Idiot

Yes. We are spamming Google. We hope to rank for the word “idiot” soon.
No, in all seriousness, it is time for me to eat crow. Here is what I wrote one year ago about the Huffington Post:
Arianna Huffington launched her much anticipated group blog today, The Huffington Post. The montage [...]

Elias Bermudez: Immigration Idiot

Given the popularity of my recent immigration and Alberto Gonzales: Idiot posts, I’m thinking of starting an “all-encompassingly Immigration Idiot of the Day” post. Don’t know if that will happen, but here would be my first candidate: Elias Bermudez, president of the appropriately named Inmigrantes Sin Fronteras (Immigrants Without Borders).
And if we were to [...]

Souring on the GOP

Instapundit points to Mark Tapscott’s blog entry on why conservatives are leaving with the GOP. Reynolds also links to Bill Quick, who comments on the Bush administration’s collusion with Mexico vis-a-vis illegal immigration that I commented on yesterday.
Here are two choice excerpts, first from Tapscott regarding the GOP:
This is the kind of fundamental smoke [...]

Beyond Bizarre

I just saw on Drudge that the United States government is alerting the Mexican government as to the location of the Minutemen (those “crazy” people who camp out on the U.S./Mexico border and try to help out government enforce immigration laws). What can I say? This is is so bizarre…
You’ve got the Mexican [...]
