About the Comments
I know people are aggravated that they have to register with WordPress and then log in to post a comment. So far I haven’t figured out a way to turn this off. I am beginning to suspect it cannot be turned off. The feature is intended to prevent spam, I’m sure. It prevents my comments from being swamped with Viagra ads. But it is still aggravating.
Once you have registered, however, you shouldn’t have to re-register every time you post a comment. If you wander down the left-hand sidebar you’ll find the header “Syndication,” and under that is a login link. If you are already registered you can log in there and comment away. We should probably figure out a way to make that link more prominent, but that’s where it is now.
If you have registered and logged in and still can’t post a comment, please email me to let me know there’s a problem.
Once of the down sides of this new setup is that I am helpless to change anything but blog posts. I have to badger other people to make changes for me. But over the next few days I hope to sniff out the bugs and make interaction with this site as painless as possible.
















It’s offical..2,000 deaths in Iraq. With that kind of stimulation I don’t think Rumsfeld is gonna need viagra. I hope that other pending news stories dont deny Americans the opportunity to savor the beauty of the price to rid Saddam of the weapons of mass deception.
They died for a LIE….and God bless America!

O/T a bit: You can find a whole slew of WordPress themes here; one of which might be a blue background/gray type sort.

Gray background may return once the design team (me) has time to work on it. But it could be much, much worse. A white background is better than, say, lime green, no?

[…] Some commenters to an earlier Christmas War post concluded that I am anti-Christian. I am nothing of the kind. I am, in fact, defending the religion of Christianity from those who would cheapen and degrade it. […]

[…] Although he wasn’t writing about mining, Harold Meyerson’s WaPo essay, “A Gentler Capitalism,” goes along with this story. Meyerson said one thing that pops out — “The American people have a lot more power as voters than they do as workers.” This correlates to what I was ranting about yesterday, that when righties talk about limiting the power of government to regulate business, what they’re really talking about is limiting the power of the people, otherwise known as workers or employees. Take that away, and workers will have no protection at all. Sweatshops and sharecropping, here we come … […]

[…] I hope you won’t mind my going back in time a bit, but lots of threads to the past are converging these days. Recently this post generated some comments about support given to Saddam Hussein in the 1980s by St. Ronald of Blessed Memory, even as Saddam was going through his “gassing the Kurds” phase. I was reminded of this episode again today. Murray Waas posts a lovely bit of writing at Huffington Post in which he explains why he dedicated himself to exposing the Reagan-Bush I support for Saddam and his war machine. He also speaks to why he is dedicating himself to exposing the lies and manipulations that got us into Iraq. Be sure to read it; it’s very moving. […]

[…] Update: Speaking of Malkin — David Weigel of Hit and Run has a follow up to the story about UC Santa Cruz Chancellor Denice Denton, the target of a Malkin hate campaign who recently committed suicide. True to form, Malkin expresses no contrition for her possible contribution to Denton’s state of mind. Instead, she complained that Weigel’s asking for a comment is some kind of harrassment. […]
