Born at the Crest of the Empire

Blah.

Nothing's really lighting me up today, at least not yet, so here's a couple of things to read if you're looking for something.

Elizabeth Dole sent out a fundraising letter for the National Republican Senatorial Committee that's pretty slimy.

Vanity Fair has an interview with Abramoff (PDF) that's supposed to be pretty telling, but I'm not in the mood to dig through it.

The monetary costs of Iraq keep rising according to the WSJ. It's up to $5.9 billion a month, which by the way could fund years of alternative energy research and cancer research.

Oh, and Dick Cheney is less popular than OJ or Stalin.

And, no matter whether you change the words from "civil war" to "sectarian violence," or now to the newest softening phrase "sectarian strife," people are still dying at the hands of their opposite ethnic groups in Iraq. Death squads are roaming Iraq.

  • At least O.J. won his own, uh, "election" by majority vote. Although I guess you could argue he was riding Johnny C.'s coat-tails... or was it the other way around? I know -- a little bit tangential...
