This is VERY cool, and shows you via Google map all of the current incidents around the globe, defined by a legend and with a description of each incident on hover. As usual you can view it in Map, Satellite, or Hybrid views. h/t to Boortz for pointing this out today. This is just a screen capture of the U.S. because the map is truly global, and too big to fit here. Just click on the image to visit.
This is definitely work bookmarking. It refreshes every 420 seconds with new incidents.
Love this new comic I saw over the weekend. This is done by Gary Brookins, and the Richmond Times-Dispatch used it in their Friday paper. They also, unbelievably, displayed it in this Sunday’s Atlanta Journal Constipation, home of the despicable Mike Luckovich.
Not really sure what Brookins’ intent was, but I know how it appears to me. And ain’t it the truth?
Creepy! But this is exactly why Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist “Church” has always creeped me out - he reminds me of one of the all-time scariest evil characters I can remember: the “Reverend Kane” from the movie, Poltergeist.
Chills just remembering that song he sang… “God is innnnn His holy temmmmmPUHL!” Scary. You tell ME if this isn’t an eerie match. Freaky, huh?
And finally, Maher includes President Bush in one of his “New Rules.” I get the general idea this idiot doesn’t like Bush at all; you think my perception is correct? What a blowhard Maher is.

I have a “New Rule” for Maher: If you don’t know squat about foreign policy or wars, then keep your worthless observations about those things to yourself. You and your insipid audience are apparently the only ones who agree with each other.
Bill Maher tonight had Richard Belzer, Jamie Tarabay, and Lisa Schriffen (token conservative) on the panel as another opportunity to engage in another BBP (Bush-bashing party). But hey, what else is new? Lisa tried to get in a few good points, but as usual Maher shut her down. Why don’t they have some conservatives on there who will fight for their say? Oh, maybe they have their own ROE that nobody knows about… hmmmmm….

Anyway, no need to transcribe the frivolity; just watch it above.
It’s clear listening to the defeatocrats, including Dennis Kucinich, that should a Dem take the White House in ‘08, the United States will only be willing to play defense and will treat terrorist attacks as law enforcement isssues. Does anybody but me see the flaw in this logic?

Kucinich was on Real Time tonight and even to Maher’s surprise, Kucinich doesn’t seem to have a retaliatory opinion even of folks like Osama bin Laden. Amazing, isn’t it? This is truly frightening. The time for “teaching the Republicans a lesson” is over, because we cannot play with such serious subjects in such consequential times. Let’s put Fred Thompson into the White House and keep Republican control of the Executive Branch.
You are a Freedom Crusader, also known as a neoconservative. You believe in taking the fight directly to the enemy, whether it’s terrorists abroad or the liberal terrorist appeasers at home who give them aid and comfort.
