I was not taking a stance on either side of the minimum wage debate with my earlier post. I'm merely savoring the twisted hilarity of these cats putting themselves on auto-raise while denying auto-raises to others.

Oh, good. :)

Banana Banana?

I say we then go with the Geneva Convention approved field executions for non uniformed combatants. This would solve the problem.

Edited to add before anyone has a conniption - it's a joke.

We should probably, in the interest of thoroughness, also field execute non uniformed non-combatants. Problem solved times 2.

Interesting. After some scathing news comes out in the NY Times another bin Laden tape has been released. This time the tape says bin Laden applauds Zarqawi.

Well, this takes away my focus from the NY Times story and makes me think about bin Laden and ties to Zarqawi and Iraq!

Talk about information that shouldn't be leaked all the time. Bush complains that leaking info about his program weakens his war on terror. But he has no qualms about releasing a bin Laden recording to again strike terror in the American people so that they run to their fearless leader for help as they give him their support.

Man, his tactics are getting old. He must not have got the boost in his ratings that he was looking for with all those pictures paraded around showing dead Zarqawi. Keep trying, Georgie, you're doing a fine job.

I could be wrong on the details, but doesn't bin Laden typically release things to Al-jazeera? If so, and Al-Jazeera aired it, how is that a leak from the administration? Unless, of course, your point is that bin Laden and the administration are coordinating the release of tapes.

Only in the bizarro world of neocon politics can another reminder - coming almost five years after 9/11 - that the man who sucker-punched America is still alive and well and free be politically beneficial to the man who vowed to hunt Bin Laden down and kill him. Hardon terror, indeed.
