Congress wants to restrict the use of special forces (Aug 13 2003 19:34 GMT) - Bill Gertz reports in the Washington Post that:Congress is set to impose new restrictions on the use of Special Operations Forces that for the first time will require a presidential order before deploying commandos in routine but hidden activities.Remember when a predator had a clear shot at Mullah Omar's motorcade but the order to fire had to pass a review by an army lawyer. The chance was lost in a bureaucratic bungle but congress wants more of the same. This deadly war on terror can't be... |

Dems Judicial Obstructionism Revealed (Aug 13 2003 19:34 GMT) - The Democrat's penchant for interpretting the Constitution to suit their whims is further indicated in their basis for opposing Bush's judicial nominations. Dems have stated that Bush's refusal to allow them to 'pre-approve' his nominations was a violation of their 'constitutional role' in the process and thus justified their filibusters. But.......once again the Dems prove their lack of understanding (perhaps deliberate) of the U.S. |

Bias-Mongers on the Rocks (Aug 13 2003 19:34 GMT) - Dick Morris sets the alphabet networks straight as they whine and make excuses for their declining audiences: The reason people arent watching network news and are canceling their subscriptions to establishment press organs is that they are fed up with the manipulation and deliberate juggling of the news they see and read each day. An increasingly educated electorate can spot bias with greater acumen and astuteness than ever before. Americans are refusing to be spoon fed anyones idea... |

Excellent Tengwar Resources (Aug 13 2003 19:34 GMT) - Kimmie at StarJewel commented in another post that she had looked for Tengwar fonts a while ago, but that they were all conflicting. She was wondering if there were more reliable sources now. Her comments made me decide to post the links to the sites I go to often, and which all agree with each other (except for minor details here and there). Mellonath Daeron - Great site, LOTS of information. Amanye Tenceli - Lots of great fonts, examples and charts of Tengwar for... |

"Fair" Shouldn't Even be a Word (Aug 13 2003 19:33 GMT) - There is no "fair" in life. We were never guaranteed "fair". And this is definitely not fair! Or is it? Perhaps those 3 hours were a gift -- a salve to lessen the sting of the irony and unfairness of what happened. |

Overture Loses First Customer Over Yahoo! Deal (Aug 13 2003 19:31 GMT) - When Yahoo! bought Overture my first thought (and subsequent Techdirt post) questioned whether or not this might backfire. Overture had started out as the branded search engine GoTo.com, but eventually toned that down and focused entirely on selling paid-search terms on other search engines. The problem with Yahoo! |

What is a progressive Christian? (Aug 13 2003 19:30 GMT) - Kynn reminds me that I am indeed a progressive Christian, though I haven't consciously spent much time identifying as one of that label. Being reminded today is doing me a world of good because (as I've written before) the so-called Christian approval of our current U.S. international and environmental behavior, whether that approval is tacit or direct, has driven me out the door of church activity for a while. And now the explosive rancor against homosexuality in the church (triggered... |
