| Posted: 20 Oct 2010 07:44 AM PDT This article on just how well-compensated our public “servants” are made my stomach turn just a little bit. It’s not that they make far more, in general, than people in similar private positions. That would be outrage enough. But when you throw in the gobs of money their get once they retire (and the early [...]  |
| I Was Fine Until the Mi-Go Showed Up Posted: 20 Oct 2010 06:15 AM PDT I’m going to have a hard time waiting until 2011 for this movie to get released. “The Whisperer in Darkness” is another adaptation of a very good H.P. Lovecraft story done by the same folks who turned “The Call of Cthulhu” into a very entertaining silent movie. Here’s the second trailer (the first is here). [...]  |
| Clearing the Browser Tabs – Welcome to Mid-Week Posted: 20 Oct 2010 03:10 AM PDT So how’s your week going? Good? Bad? Well, it’s Wednesday, the day you can either change things up or stomp on the accelerator. Which one will you choose today? Oh, if you weren’t around UStream last night, you can get the latest polished and pretty episode of The Delivery right here later today or here [...]  |
| She’s Laughing at the Superior Intellect! Posted: 19 Oct 2010 12:23 PM PDT You know, it’s possible to be so convinced of your own superior intelligence that you can be easily goaded into making stupid mistakes. Call it The Khan Principle, after that genetically-engineered mastermind who let an aging starship captain bait him into disaster. Now, Markos Moulitsas is no lab-grown super being, but he does have just [...]  |
| A Smackdown Greater than Its Target Posted: 19 Oct 2010 11:47 AM PDT There are many reasons I’ve had Mark Hemingway as a guest on The Delivery. His ability to eviscerate a knucklehead whose mouth has clearly outstripped his brain is but one of them. I'd like to put the best construction on this and note that Yglesias is expressing a degree of independence from his fellow CAP [...]  |
| Here Come the Restructureniks! Posted: 19 Oct 2010 11:00 AM PDT If the upper echelon inside the GOP really want to know why they still don’t have the adoration of the Tea Parties, who ought to be natural ideological allies with them, they have only to listen to Senator Judd Gregg. Sen. Judd Gregg (N.H.), the top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee, said that repealing [...]  |
| Dear God in Heaven, That is a Huge Number Posted: 19 Oct 2010 08:58 AM PDT This kind of took my breath away this morning. The United States of America now owes someone(s) $13,665,000,000,000. By 2012, when Hillary Clinton next challenges Barack Obama for their party’s presidential nomination, the national debt will be even larger than today’s record — $16,500,000,000,000, according to current federal estimates. That’s more money than the entire [...]  |
