Steven Malanga isn't looking at the real problem: break the stranglehold unions have on things like "Expos" being held at Javits. They drive the costs to ridiculous levels and chase people away.

Yes, NYC should be utilizing a ferry system akin to the one that is employed around Puget Sound in Seattle. It just makes bloody sense to get more people off the roads, and just pushing them onto busses doesn't make that happen. but Arthur the Admiral is a friggin' schmuck and I really hope he goes Glub-glub-glub.

The Movable Type iteration of LeatherPenguin Blog is up, running, and pretty much laid out in a not ugly manner. It will probably go through a bunch of cosmetic changes as I get comfortable with the MT system, but for all intents, this here URL is now a ghostblog or a place I refer back to sometimes. If you have it on a blogroll or favorites list, make the appropriate changes.

Since everyone is going to be getting their knickers in a twist and start using this clown's grandstanding on 60 Minutes to shill his self-serving book, it would be helpful to blunt the storm the anti-Bush crowd is going to try to create to include things like this in the debate.

Your foreign friends, like this piece of work and those you're keeping under wraps are working better than any Republican attack ad at undermining credibility questions voters may have about your status on the world's stage.

The Talking Points Memo Spinboy tries to prove that Bushie Richard Perle ignores the "facts." One problem, Josh. You're the one playing fast and loose with the facts, and Jonathan over at The Belgravia Dispatch nailed you on it.

The NY Times' Bob Herbert throws a bit of the old hissy fit over Bloomie's smackdown of insubordination. He's carrying on like a little kid who just got told he's getting left back becuase he can't keep up."Mayoral control means mayoral control, thank you very much," said Mr. Bloomberg. It came across as a sneer.No, it came across as the facts of life for the city's educational community.

Bill Whittle returns with the first chapter of what seems to be an exploration of Where We Are and How We Got Here. His retelling of his late 90's dot.com experience begins the story and frames (what I'm guessing is) his thesis well:I learned a lesson that night – many lessons in fact.

I disagree with the second sentence. Jayson Blair was and is a no-talent hack who knew what butt to suck. He'd been faking it since his days on his college rag. But Sullivan will dress up the dressing down better than I will, so I'll let him blow the bandwidth on this loser bastard.

It wasn't too long ago that we kept hearing that term. But this Nielsen/NetRatings survey pretty much puts a bullet in that meme's medulla. It doesn't say what number of people are using the Internet, just how many have access.

As I noted yesterday, V.P. Dick Cheney unloaded on Sen. John Kerry yesterday in a speech delivered at the Ronald Reagan Library. An abridged transcript can be found here, the full transcript is where you'd expect it. A quickie search through GoogleNews shows it's already got some legs. I'm waiting to see how it gets treated by the Kerry Quick Response team, and the usual DU/Indymedia suspects,

It didn't take long for Kerry to realize the Dean Machine is Kervorkian at its core. You can't 'manage' a madhouse, Johnny. The Deaniacs still think you're Bush Lite, or worse. Shut the experiment down now...they'll cost you as many votes as they'll bring in.

I'm watching him on FOX right now, and he is giving Kerry an ass-kicking. This is a transcript that is gonna be rehashed for at least a month. The only thing he hasn't done so far is call Kerry a cheap ass punk and challenge him to a knife fight in a Southie alley!

When they threatened to disregard their bosses, three renegade apparatchicks got their heads lopped off. Good. And a lesson to the rest of you idiots involved in fixing NY's educational morass: You aren't running the show any more. Get with the program or you are gone! Bloomie means business.

Michelle over at A Small Victory says something I could never say without hurling invective in at least three different languages. There is no discussion when you try to engage these clowns in debate. It's Bush's fault, period. They'll say it's "all about oil" and when I show them the price of gas at the pump is going up, they're oblivious. But what can you expect from mooks who consider this

According to Drudge, the pool reporter who started the whole "Foreign Leaders for Kerry" tempest is backpedaling, claiming he screwed up the transcript. Cut the tape loose NOW, Healy. Not too many people are going to believe your story considering Kerry has never denied saying the original version; he just won't say who the "leaders" he was talking about are. You're offering him absolutely zero

Now that Spain's been bombed into submission, you know the bastards are scanning the horizon for the next tasty target. Poland's a no-go: Islamofascists would stick out too much, although being the Pope's hometown would make it appealing to a jihadist's heart. No, I'm betting here, and doubling down on Boston just ahead of convention time as the target. It's too damn fat a goose for them not to

CHESS IS RACIST? I thought this was nuts when I saw it commented on in Taranto's Best of the Web (scroll to bottom), so I had to go take a look. It is a fairly ludicrous premise, as the comments accompanying the article seem to be trending. I hadn't heard of "The Algebra Project," which the article described as thus:Moses and Ware came up with the basic concepts of The Algebra Project in 1969.

BUZZBOY STILL SUCKING THE STERN-O I think I'm gonna be forgetting about Jarvis for the foreseeable future. He's gone too far through the looking glass. His blind allegiance to the egomaniacal has-been is just too much. We've been through this already. (scroll, find: "hypocrit*") Now he think's he's defending a juggernaut or something. I predicted that Stern would end up going to satellite and he

I DON'T CARE IF YOU CALL ME 'RIGHT WING' Doug Giles: The Passion policeIs it just me, or did Mel Gibson make Satan out to look like Sinead O’Connor in his latest movie, “The Passion of the Christ”? Coincidence? I don’t think so. And what about the baby with the old man’s face that Lucifer was carrying around in that unholy Madonna-like scene during Christ’s scourging? I swear it was Andy

ANOTHER POSTER BOY FOR THE HOT SHOT It's yuppie scum like this clown that makes me like the death penalty. He kills her, buries her in cement on his own property, then flees the country. Charge him for being mind-numbingly dumb, along with whatever other charges he's already facing. And then kill him and bury his butt.

WHEEL OUT MORE IDIOTS LIKE THIS... ...and you're gonna see a backlash like none ever unleashed before. I've got no dog in this fight, but when elected public officials thumb their noses at the law, it just makes me more comfortable in doing illegal things that make me feel good. If I get popped for doing something against the law, I can point at these guys and say," You wanna lock me up? Then

IT'S THE RULE, FOOL RhoidBoy's Personal Trainer Shown the Door As far as I'm concerned, this just shows how desperate baseball beat hacks are for copy. Selig said "No," so the guy hadda go. End of story. Put him on the payroll and he can return to helping Jason while he puts on his jock.

FOLLOW-UP TO LAST BLAST (sans the self restraint thingie) (sidenote: Jeffy seems to have lifted my bannage...or he's just overwhelmed by the tonnage of responses he's been getting after wigging out and hasn't done his pruning, since the stuff I threw up hasn't gotten deaded yet.

HYPOCRITICAL JEFFY JARVIS Howard Stern was not "censored," and BuzzBoy damn well knows it. But he's a huge Stern fan, so when Clear Channel yanks Howie off their radio stations, Jarvis loses his mind. He blasts off into a zone usually reserved for the clueless DU Moonbats who think an event like this is "The Man" (Bush) crushing dissent. From reading the comments to his rant, and things like this

"Hour of the Gunmen" Update (scroll down for original post) Well, this comes as no surprise. PARIS (AP) - French Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin on Wednesday called for the "immediate" dispatch of an international civilian force to restore order in Haiti, where a rebellion threatens to topple President Jean-Bertrand Aristide.What the blazes is a "civilian force" supposed to consist of?

IT'S ABOUT TIME Raids Round Up 30 Lowlives on Staten Island Good. I'm sick and tired of having to leash a dog anytime I want to take a long walk around my neighborhood.

ARE THERE ANY ADULTS LEFT IN THIS FAMILY? I find this a fairly dumb performance, but then, I find the source to be a fairly dumb guy, so at least he's consistent. The papers cited have a purpose, Pinch. They draw in readers who wouldn't otherwise pay attention to the main product. When more and more youths are turning to alternate sources for news, it makes sense to offer them something that can

The Institute of Official Cheer :: Stagworld The Bleatster's collection of seedy pseudo-porn, circa late 50s-early 60s. You're gonna need a steel wool looffa to wash this one away, Jimbo!
