ad absurdum

* friedman has seen the light! " In fact, the Bush energy policy should be called No Mullah Left Behind." http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/07/opinion/07friedman.html

* "Did CNN and MSNBC get hoodwinked this morning? Yesterday, the White House announced that President Bush would be delivering a "major policy address" on terrorism today. The cable news networks broadcast it live and in full. Yet the "address" turned out to be a standard campaign stump speech before a Pennsylvania crowd that seemed pumped on peyote, cheering, screaming, or whooping at every sentence." http://slate.com/id/2107847/

* "The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is investigating 1,500 voter registration forms received by the Leon County elections office that apparently were altered to register local students as Republicans." http://www.local6.com/news/3786610/detail.html

* "People soon will be able to carry guns and other dangerous weapons onto the grounds and parking lots of Reagan National and Dulles International airports, after officials yesterday eased what they said were overly restrictive rules." overly restrictive rules. overly restrictive rules. overly restrictive rules.

* ""The significance of our disengagement plan," Weisglass said, "is the freezing of the peace process. It supplies the formaldehyde necessary so there is no political process with the Palestinians." The goal, he said, was to "prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state" and remove it "indefinitely from our agenda."" http://www.progressive.org/webex04/wx1007a04.html

* "U.S. District Judge Thomas F. Hogan ordered Miller jailed until she agrees to testify about her sources before a grand jury, but said she could remain free while pursuing an appeal. Miller could be jailed up to 18 months." *glee* one down, thousands to go. 16 lil words, and the story still gives. http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000662192

* crawford paper endorses kerry - and the rnc attackdogs jumped in. heres the paper:"The new mode of operation, I am told, is that when a newspaper prints an editorial of which some sectors might disagree, the focus is now upon how to run the newspaper out of business... Unfortunately, for the Iconoclast and its publishers there have been threats — big ones including physical harm.
Too, some individuals are threatening innocent commercial concerns, claiming that if they advertise in The Iconoclast, they will be run out of business." http://www.iconoclast-texas.com/Columns/Editorial/editorial40.htm

* LAtimes op headline: "Is He a Dope?" http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/editorials/la-ed-brains7oct07,1,1691609.story?coll=la-news-comment-editorials
