Chicago Style Politics in D.C.

If Sestak is telling the truth about being "offered" a Federal job by the White House in exchange for dropping out of the U.S. Senate Democratic primary in Pennsylvania (which Sestak has since won), then a crime has been committed.

Pac Man Fever

In honor of the 30th anniversary of the Pac Man video game, Google has a playable version on its home page today. Just click the "Insert Coin" button and start chomping away!

Below is purportedly the first episode of the game-inspired cartoon. Never really saw any of them when I was a kid, of course, because I'd usually be scrounging around for quarters to go to the arcade.

So-Called Americans?

Everyone's favorite impeached federal judge[now Congress critter], Alcee Hastings, rips all you "Americans" who have participated in the YouCut initiative sponsored by House Republican Whip, Eric Cantor. According to hizhonor, one of you participants is obviously Osama bin Laden.

Happy Draw Mohammed Day!*

More info about it here, in case you don't already know what it's supposed to be about.



*That should actually be, "Happy Everybody Draw Mohammmed Day!"

So For the Sake of Consistency, L.A. Will Be Boycotting Itself or All of California

Right?

And hey, our "anti-immigrant" law, unlike Arizona's, doesn't even prohibit racial profiling!

California Penal Code §834b

a)Every law enforcement agency in California shall fully cooperate with the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service regarding any person who is arrested if he or she is suspected of being present in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws.

(b)With respect to any such person who is arrested, and suspected of being present in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws, every law enforcement agency shall do the following:

(1)Attempt to verify the legal status of such person as a citizen of the United States, an alien lawfully admitted as a permanent resident, an alien lawfully admitted for a temporary period of time or as an alien who is present in the United States in violation of immigration laws. The verification process may include, but shall not be limited to, questioning the person regarding his or her date and place of birth, and entry into the United States, and demanding documentation to indicate his or her legal status.

(2)Notify the person of his or her apparent status as an alien who is present in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws and inform him or her that, apart from any criminal justice proceedings, he or she must either obtain legal status or leave the United States.

(3)Notify the Attorney General of California and the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service of the apparent illegal status and provide any additional information that may be requested by any other public entity.

(c)Any legislative, administrative, or other action by a city, county, or other legally authorized local governmental entity with jurisdictional boundaries, or by a law enforcement agency, to prevent or limit the cooperation required by subdivision (a) is expressly prohibited.

We All Originated From "Slime" (circa 2002)

Been reviewing some of my first blog posts, and thought this was worth reposting:

It would appear as though at least one Bible translation does not contradict the Darwinist notion that man was made from slime. According to Genesis 2:7 in the Douay Rheims Bible: "And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul." Of course, how man was made from the "slime" remains a point of dispute between Darwinists and so-called "Creationists".

Sooo 2002

It's been a long time since I've read anything at Eve Tushnet's blog, and it's interesting to see she's still using the same blog template she had in 2002.

I wonder if Eve planned it that way in order to eventually achieve a point of differentiation from all the other blogs that's now out there. Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it and trying to figure out why anyone would keep using such an obsolete template.

Miss OK is OK

I also personally think Ms. Woolard is a lot hotter than the pole dancing/might be a Hezbollah supporter gal who won.

Miss USA "Shocker"

Well, if she is Muslim, she's obviously of the more liberal variety.
