Friday Notes:

A Link, a Palpable Link!!

Dimmy Karras is now linking to the Chimes at Midnight (aka "The Little Blog that Cried").
For that I am profoundly grateful.
If this keeps up I just know Chimes at Midnight will surge past the "Kitchen Secrets of Angola State Prison" blog.
:)

Meanwhile....

Senator Rick "High Pitched Rich" Santorum showed up on the Imus Program this morning.
He manfully concealed his disappointment with Toomey's loss to Spector in the Pennsylvania GOP Primary.
Santorum also struggled unsuccessfully to keep up with his beloved President's latest evasions and revisions on the Iraq War.
Rick sounded downright surprised to learn the President had admitted there was no link between Saddam Hussein and the Al Queda Network.
La Famiglia Arbusto's policy flip flops are coming in too fast-n-furious for even the senate's rising young demagogue.
Oh he tried to the change subject...half heartedly implying a gay relationship between Imus and his candidate Senator John Kerry.
In an uncharacteristic burst of tastefulness the ancient radio golem cut Santorum off and croaked away about Bush's "admission" that there was no link between Saddam and Osama Bin-Laden.
In short the dogs days of Summer have come early for this GOP Vice Presidential wannabee.

And....
In congressional testimony yesterday Paul Wolfowitz was reduced to guessing the number of U.S. fatalities in Iraq.
Predictably everyone is up in arms about this arrogant spectacle....but lets face it, Paul is already conjuring with the conquest of Syria or maybe the Moon and can't be bothered with petty details like that.

But at the end of the day....
It seems Massachusetts National Guard Adjunct General George W. Keefe is in dutch with state democrats.
It seems the General has been passing around a joking e-mail that refers to the upcoming democratic national convention as hosting "terrorist appeasement workshop" (among other things including the usual crap about an "opening flag-burning ceremony).
In sum the usual crap from aging freepers and campus conservative bundists-the very cream of the Kolobian Viceroy's best-n-brightest.
This is less an indictment of the National Guard's mentality and more a revealing glimpse of the sort of bullshit the Romney admin trafficks in every day behind it's gladhanding rictus of reform.
Yez can read all about it here:
If the link doesn't work just go to the Herald's website, poke around, and curse my lack of skill at putting up good reliable links if you like.
:)
See you monday.
