Now This

This blog is now read by more machines than humans: RSS robots, spam-laying insectopoids, echoes of blog-gathering .edu projects. This essentially is the state of affairs that all human activities w

Cleaning Up the Nation

Austin Bay:

If Air America were a conservative radio network its corrupt funding trail and cynical abuse of a poverty program would be front page news at the NY Times and full-time mega-scandal at

Rank Materialism

Freedom. I am now the proud new owner of a Gateway 6020GZ laptop, perfect for students and others with limited means. I can now go into a Starbucks or a Barnes & Noble and look like I'm doing some

Fallujah Fonda

Uh-oh. From the Telegraph comes this exciting news:

Jane Fonda is returning to anti-war activism and embarking on a cross-country tour to call for an end to US military operations in Iraq.

John Pilger: Partner in Terrorism

In an outrageous piece of terrorist propaganda appearing on the cover of today's New Statesman, John Pilger puts the blame for the 7/7 London attacks not on the terrorists, but rather on Tony Blair:

Election Eve Extravaganzas

In the spirit of those old Mad Magazine pieces which (somewhat oddly) used show tunes to satirize current events, I offer this.

(Dan Rather:)
Good night and thank you to chimpee*
We failed with TexANG
But this time we rang
The UN
Everyone should know that we're putting on a show
And after they view it
They're sure to intuit
That you should take your wife Laura and go

(John Kerry:)
Oh but it's sad when a president fails
But Dan Rather is right when he says
We can't let you stay after Election Day
Which means (you're out)

(The MSM:)
There is no-one, no-one at all
Never has been, and never will be a newsman
Print or broadcast
Who hasn't an eye on
In fact we rely on
Tricks we can play on the process
We're hoping the public will mind us or heed us
Indulge us, excuse us
Don't blame us
That's our job

(Mohamed ElBaradei:)
Goodnight and thank you George W
There's a few tons of arms
Which could make some bombs
It's your fault
We warned you to keep them away from the mobs
We don't know who's got'em
But we think that you lost'em
So please read this letter and go

(John Kerry:)
Oh but it's sad when a president fails
But we need more troops, maybe not
We can't let you stay after Election Day
Which means (you're out)

(The MSM:)
There is no-one, no-one at all
Never has been, and never will be a newsman
Print or broadcast
Who hasn't an eye on
In fact we rely on
Ways we can alter the outcome
We're hoping the public will mind us or heed us
Indulge us, excuse us
Don't blame us
We're in charge

(Osama on cheesy video:)
You have no hope, no hope to win
Doesn't matter who'll be your leader
Bush or Kerry
America's function is every disruption
The cause of all woe
The Great Satan
One little meeting
With my mujahadeen thing
You're dying
You'll be dead

(The Lancet:)
Goodnight and thank you Mr. pResident
A hundred thousand have died
And then we all cried
It's your fault
We're just popping in to help John Kerry win
Your negatives will mount
As we publish our count
So please read our study and go

(John Kerry:)
Oh but it's sad when a president fails
But Saddam was a threat, maybe not
We can't let you stay after Election Day
Which means (you're out)

(The MSM:)
This is a club that we're glad we have joined
Kerry's not making his case
Media folk call political shots
We want to alter the race

(John Kerry:)
Running on facts as far as it goes
Is all very well but every Dem knows

(The MSM:)
He needs the press there on election eve
To monger some scandals and make George Bush leave

(John Kery and the MSM:)
Oh but it's sad when a president fails

*Sung to the tune of Good Night and Thank You from Evita.
