Snapped Shot

You know, when Obama hit the campaign trail touting his ability to "change" Washington, I had no idea that he meant doing so by jailing his political opponents:

“What I would want to do is to have my Justice Department and my Attorney General immediately review the information that’s already there and to find out are there inquiries that need to be pursued. I can’t prejudge that because we don’t have access to all the material right now. I think that you are right, if crimes have been committed, they should be investigated. You’re also right that I would not want my first term consumed by what was perceived on the part of Republicans as a partisan witch hunt because I think we’ve got too many problems we’ve got to solve.

Nothing amuses me more than seeing anti-war "peace" groups resorting to violence and intimidation to get their point across. And now, thanks to a tip from Warner Todd Houston, I've discovered that there is an entire website that is devoted to documenting these pro-peace bullies, one incident at a time.

After all, it's not like the Internet was invented for porn or anything...

Peace Thugs? Consider yourselves blogrolled!

In response to Palestinian plans to walk through Israel's "apartheid" wall, Soccer Dad writes:

Haha, that would be a feat I'd pay to see! Keep up the awesome blogging, SD!

Correction: SD writes to inform me that the Line of the Day was actually written by Judeopundit, one of his co-bloggers. In that case, "awesome job" to JP—and keep up the excellent blogging anyway, both of ya's!

This sounds like just the store for our good friends over at Ace's pad:

Michael Totten makes a positive difference in the world, completely by accident.

One more story you probably won't be hearing from your typical evening news program.

Awww, how cute—It would appear that the "Zionist-loving-scumbag" Gateway Pundit has made a new friend!

Keep up the great work, Jim!

Okay, so for the next little while, I'm going to be going back through this blog's archives and flagging all of the stories that are demonstrably within my legal "fair use" rights for the wire service photos. I'm composing this list mostly for my own reference, so if you're not interested, feel free to pass it on. (I'll be blogging on current news as soon as I'm caught up with what's going on in the world, of course.)

For those of you who don't care about piddly little things like "fair use" and "article lists," I present this offering—The classic Atari game "Pole Position," played with humans. It will hopefully keep you entertained until this blog is able to get back on track with current events:
