Regular readers of this space will note that I mentioned last week, after returning from my Labor Day weekend, that I was feeling a bit under the weather. The week passed with little improvement, and over the weekend I really...

Outcome of Vote Still Pending

There's been a fair amount of coverage of this, but the Chief's impression is that it isn't a very high level on the American interest meter.

Daily Demarche comments on this, with some reflections that seem to parallel the above. Since he is from the diplo-world, the Chief thinks that thee is some credibility there. He makes about as much sense out of the situation over there as anyone else could, with some suitable pithy comments comparing the situation to Florida in 2000.

It would be nice to see Schoder lose - but if not, things won't get any worse than they already are. Deutschland uber alles? Nein!

From WorldNetDaily: An employee of the Defense Department says he was ordered to destroy documents identifying Mohamed Atta as a terrorist two years before the 2001 attacks on the U.S., Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Pa., announced today. According to the congressman,...

I received this email on an issue that I don?t believe gets enough attention:As the Congress currently reviews some of the provisions in the Patriot Act that are up for consideration again, I would like your blogs to address this...

According to our friends at Clean Cut Kid, Republicans are too ridgid to tolerate any dissent in their ranks. Well, this is how the Daily KOS, an extraordinarily popular blog, deals with a heratic among the Democrats. On a day...

I have discussed in two recent posts (here and here) the disturbing consequences of taking the abstract principles of autonomy and reproductive freedom to certain logical conclusions. It turns out that some of my theoretical musings that I intended to...

California Conservative

This site was ref'ed in the previous post, and the Chief took a look at the rest of it, and saw several interesting posts there, and some good writing:

Like many tourists, I was drawn to the careless fantasy that was New Orleans, reveling in the booze, food, and jazz without a second thought for tomorrow. But tomorrow always came, and once the throbbing haze of Pat O?Brien?s finally subsided, I thankfully returned to my family, career, and responsibilities.

The problem with binge fantasies is that the devil eventually shows up like a back alley loan shark to collect his fee. For some it?s monetary, while others are crippled by something akin to metal pipe across the knees. For New Orleans, the devil came in the form of Katrina, who in her own big easy form, pirouetted lazily across the Caribbean and Florida to a city where today?s troubles could always wait for tomorrow. Striking an area the size of Great Britain, Katrina displaced or drowned a population long overdue for a cold shower.

This is one that you may want to check out, at least every now and then. I know it's added to MY list - and besides, it's nice to know that there are still some conservatives to carry the torch in the land of Ronaldus Magnus Reagan.

From NewsMax: The New York Times Co. said Tuesday it would cut 500 jobs, or about 4 percent of its work force, as part of an ongoing effort to reduce costs. The reductions come atop another 200 jobs that were...
