Linky Love

Also: Jamie Gorelick - Incompetant hack, or evil enemy?

Sorry, I just had to toss that in there, because the more I read about Gorelick, the more I'm disgusted with the whole Democratic Party. So, on the whole "Let's string Gorelick from a lamp post and use her limp, worthless body as a Pinata" string, I give you the Volokh Conspiracy, Old Benjamin on Andrew McCarthy, and Andrew McCarthy himself. Read. Be nauseated. And re-educate yourself on the vile corruptness that is the Democratic Party.

James Lileks smacks down Andrew Sullivan over Sully's remarks about a gas tax.

The truly needy tend to consume less gas than their middle-class compatriots. Others say it penalizes those in remote and rural areas. So what?

Some conservatives say it's antithetical to the American Dream. Hooey.


Here's a question that I think Sullivan should have to answer - why the hell should Ma and Pa Public who live in Idaho/Montana/Wyoming/anystatewithassloadsoflandbutveryfewpeople listen to a Manhattan socialite who doesn't even drive? Do you have any idea the costs involved? Do you think that loaf of bread just materializes on your counter ala "Star Trek"? Do you think that salad hopped off of the field and onto your plate all by it's lonesome? Do you think that computer that you're typing on was hauled into New York for free? Hell no! And you didn't even think about what an effect a gas tax would have on the rest of the country, did you? No, you just bloviated on a subject that you have NO FUCKING EXPERIENCE with, didn't you?

That's right, Sully. Keep your ass in New York City and shut the hell up. Let those of us who live in the real world deal with real world problems. Stay in your Ivory Tower before I slap the taste outta yer mouth!

The more I read Sullivan, the more I realize that he has absolutely no idea what goes on outside New York City.

And last but not least, from Baby Troll Blog - I'd be more inclined to believe VP Cheney when he says that he and Bush are the friends of gun owners if ol' Dubya hadn't stated way back when that he would sign an extension of the ill-named, full of crap, communist wet dream "Assault Weapons Ban". However, Cheney is partly correct when he states "John Kerry's approach to the Second Amendment has been to regulate, regulate and then regulate some more". Sorry Dick, but you forgot "Ban, deny, and criminalize".

Just in case people forgot.....



Yep, after missing the majority of his votes in Congress this year, 'Ol John Fonda Kerry found time to zoom back and vote for more "gun control". F.E.T.E.

Maybe more later, if I can scratch out some time.
