The Democrats’ Charade

Let’s be clear on this. The Democrats have the unilateral power to end the war. Don’t believe any of the malarkey such as this article in the Washington Post that suggests they need enough votes to override a veto to end the war. That’s what they want us to think.

The Democrats were elected, not because of their sicko domestic polices, but because people thought they would end the war. Now that they can, they won’t because they don’t want to be blamed for “losing” a war that was lost before it began. That’s right, they continue to fund a war that is killing thousands so they will win future elections and stay in power so they can act like monsters in the future too.

All they need to do is stop the funding, by majority vote, in either house.

Even Dick Morris agrees. And, he throws in that many R’s will join them.

But the D’s want to get a lock on power and so are content to pretend that they are helpless.

Yeah, right. It’s all a shell game between two side of the same coin.

A pox on them all!

FUN: New Chemical Element – Governmentium

Friday, July 13, 2007

From some one who will remain nameless with too much time on their hands.

*** begin quote ***

The recent hurricanes and gasoline issues are proof of the existence of a new chemical element. A major research institution has recently announced
the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science.

The new element has been named Governmentium. Governmentium (Gv) has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant
deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.

Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert; however, it can be detected, because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into
contact. A minute amount of Governmentium can cause a reaction that would normally take less than a second to take over four days to complete.

Governmentium has a normal half-life of 4 years. It does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant
neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Governmentium’s mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganization will
cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.

This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical
concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical morass. When catalyzed with money, Governmentium becomes
Administratium…an element that radiates just as much energy as Governmentium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons.

TECH SERVICE: Blog notes on a topic

Friday, July 13, 2007

A blog is an excellent tool for keeping notes about a specific topic. The free, and unequaled, wordpressdotcom gives you a free blog that youcan configure for your own use alone. If allows you to have a rolling log of notes on a topic that is search able, and categorize able. Wish I had been doing it two years ago.

TECH SERVICE: wordpressdotcom could use an inbox

FEEDBACK submitted

This may sound dumb, if it was available I’d use it.

I think that blogs with “fresh content” are more interesting that those with “stale”. As a hobby blogger, I’ve realized that my site postings get “clustered” around when I can produce them. Some of my posts get “pushed” out of the lime light too quickly.

I’ve been struggling with this by adjusting the time stamps. But, it’s hard and cumbersome.

So like drafts, and the roles of author and editor, I’d like to propose an “inbasket”. The user would specify say minimum interval say in hours. The free, and unequaled, wordpressdotcom would then “post” from the inbasket when the time expires. If you wanted to get fancy, it could sense how “full” the inbasket was, and adjust the time based on a minimum / maximum exposure time (i.e., based on % full basket set minimum 2 hours; maximum 6 hours).

This would ensure that the blog might have fresh content around the clock with minimum angst by the creator.

Just in case you were sitting around with nothing to do! ;-)
