Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Mohamed Hamoud Alessa, 20, of North Bergen, and Carlos Eduardo “Omar” Almonte, 24, of Elmwood Park were apprehended at John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens before they could board separate flights to Egypt, where they were to start journeys to Somalia. The men were arrested by teams of state and federal law-enforcement agents who have been investigating the pair since October 2006, according to the officials, who requested anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the operation publicly.
Now boil them in oil.
Yeah yeah, I know. Eighth amendment, Supreme Court decision this-versus-that, can’t do it, This Nation Does Not Torture!!!!1! Yeah, whatever.
My point is simply this: If we boiled them in oil, this stuff would stop. And to whoever makes decisions reasonably, responsibly, weighing both sides of a question rather than just one side, that’s an important consideration. This would all stop overnight.
Sure let’s continue to be humane and decent, but keep in mind what exactly it is costing us. And no, the terrorists would not win, they are not fighting to make us into a nation of terrorists. They’re fighting to make us gone. Our brutality would provide a new selling point for Al Qaeda recruiters? Really? I doubt it. Who wants to get boiled in oil.
You end conflict by speaking the language of diplomats, or by speaking in the language of horse heads in beds. The world is a big place, that has some people in it who only understand one of those languages.

Great Britain has so many terrortards to track that they admit to being well beyond their limits. Maybe the FIB needs the work, but can anyone imagine what manpower is required to keep track of just a few thousand people? Maybe the IRS knows.

Toss ‘im in. Make sure the international community finds out all about it, let ’em get as pissy about it as they want. And get the word out we’ve got lots more bacon & are looking for ways to use it up.
- mkfreeberg | 06/06/2010 @ 19:15[…] We scooted on up to Bodega Bay on Tuesday. Regular visitors to the Tides Wharf restaurant and gift shop will be familiar with the hundred year old whaling pot below. Perfectly suitable for melting down whale fat, or for frying up Islamic terrorists in bacon grease: […]
