Cal Poly climbing

The latest Div. I-AA poll is out and the Cal Poly Mustangs have climbed to No. 14. Up Next: No. 25 Northern Arizona. In fact, Cal Poly has 3 ranked teams remaining on its schedule, including at Montana and home against Idaho St. Here's keeping my fingers crossed that I might get to see Cal […]

More on the Nutty Ninth "Circus"

Despite having an aspirin-resistant, persistent, splitting headache for much of the day (hence the non-existent posting -- I'm feeling a little better now), I managed to watch the en banc hearing in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on the California recall. I'm not going to predict what the court's decision will be come Tuesday […]

More on Gen. Clark

A Newsweek story this week reveals that Democrat presidential candidate Gen. Wesley Clark bases his party affiliation not on basic philosophical standards or where the parties stand on the issues of the day, but on who returns his phone calls. “I would have been a Republican,” Clark told them, “if Karl Rove had returned my […]

Primary Sources

The Nutty Ninth Circuit has posted various documents on their Web site [Adobe Acrobat Reader required] related to the October 7 recall. Two of the documents, which thankfully are not couched in legalese, are informative. The first is from former Secretary of State Bill Jones, who was quoted in the three-judge panel's as having "banned" […]

Fisking Rall

Michael J. Totten takes vicious, lying, America-hating "cartoonist" and "columnist" Ted Rall to task for his latest nut-case column. Sometimes I wish Rall would act on some of the things he says so we could try him for treason.

Stupid, self-important bureaucrats

An article in today's San Diego Union-Tribune recounts some gross stupidity by the immigration service that should result in some firings. In short, the wife of a Navy sailor, and her 8 1/2-month-old American daughter, was detained for several days after returning from her native Australia. "They didn't listen," she said, during a telephone interview […]

Errors? Or lies?

The difference between the two is intent. An error is unintentional. A lie is not. So, what is a viewer to believe when the BBC's Andrew Gilligan, the man who told BBC World Service listeners that U.S. troops weren't at the Baghdad airport when they actually were, says that he made a "slip of the […]
