Headline below the fold

I am ignoring the Democrats and Republicans choosing political hacks of the looney kind to lead them. Murtha and Lott? Bleech.
Earth to Congress: YOU REPRESENT THE PEOPLE. You're not there to line your own pockets.

I ran into this while posting on my Evilmugabe blog: LINK:
Nkomo soon got his answer in the most horrific of ways. What was to become the Fifth Brigade, a crack army unit answerable directly to Mugabe, was being trained clandestinely in Zimbabwe's Eastern Highlands by more than a hundred military instructors sent from North Korea by the dictator Kim Il Sung in preparation for a ruthless crackdown on the Ndebele people of Nkomo's home provinces in Matabeleland... in January 1983. ... some 20,000 Ndebele villagers had been massacred and countless others tortured and terribly beaten (by the Fifth Brigade).

Axis of Evil indeed...

BBC reports stem cells from adult blood vessels improved muscular dystrophy in dogs. The hype about stem cells makes most people think they come only from embryos, but the irony is that the adult stem cells are working just fine...Heart attack patients are being given stem cells taken from the patient's own bone marrow to improve the strength of the damaged heart muscle too....

Hmmm....first Fox presented a special on Islamofascism, and now CNN is presenting the information? And the NYTimes has an editorial that getting out of Iraq now is a bad idea LINK What'll they think of next...might make people think we're in a war....
Another political issue not covered before the election.

And PajamasMedia's Claudia Rosette suggests, tongue in cheek, that legally if Congress doesn't approve of UN ambassador Bolton, then Bush can reappoint him without pay, and let the public donate toward his salary.

And if all this has gotten you depressed, cheer up. The GrouchyOldCripple blog figures that since he posts his Saturdaynightboobage for the guys, he needs equal times for the ladies. So he has posted the photo of a gloriously naked fire fighter on his website. That should cheer up all the ladies.
