“It does indicate that men who oppose federal spending at the local level are irresistible to women.”
— Grover Norquist (H/T to TPM)
On the other hand, I can’t bring myself to read the emails apparently leaked between Mark Sanford and his Argentinian lover, and I hope that she’s allowed to keep at least some modicum of anonymity. Let that stuff stay private; prying further into the personal side of this mess is voyeurism at this point.
And as I said yesterday, I do think that in his press conference Sanford handled himself with as much dignity, grace and candor as one could muster in such a situation. I thought his references to God’s law, etc., were heartfelt as well. He was wrestling with a very real sense of personal failure on many levels, and he expressed that.
Personally, I was relieved when members of his staff — I’m guessing that’s who they were — walked up to escort him away from the microphone and podium, saving him and us from further excruciation. He should resign, and we should move on.

“Did not meet the definition?”
If you’re going to quote me, please do so accurately. I said “did not meet THAT defintion”…while his activities with Monica were of a sexual nature, they did not meet the definition of “sex” that he was given to respond to. THAT definition, not THE definition. And ALL ALONG, it has been the inability of people to distinguish between THAT and THE that has been the problem with his denial.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said June 25 that U.S. President Barack Obama should not interfere in Iran’s affairs, in the wake of a recent statement by Obama in which he said he was “appalled and outraged” by post-election violence, Hurriyet reported. Ahmadinejad also said “Mr. Obama made a mistake to say those things … our question is why he fell into this trap and said things that previous [former U.S. President George W.] Bush used to say.”

(Just kidding. Doing my I welch/I whine imitation…)
Houston, Texas, had a record high temperature Wednesday as a heat wave continues to grip the nation’s midsection, the National Weather Service said Thursday.
The city sweltered with a high temperature of 104 degrees Wednesday, a record high for June 24, forecasters said. The previous record high for the date was 99 degrees, set in 1980.
The previous record high measured for the month of June in Houston was 103 degrees, set on June 30, 1980, and June 18, 1934.
Heat indices, a combination of temperature and humidity, are breaking the 110-degree mark in many cities.

It was one of those “Socialist Europeans get all their weapons from us via foreign aid ’cause socialists are too broke to defend themselves” discussions.
There was a valid point that most of our ‘allies’ rely a lot on us in their force structure equations. True enough. I say it’s time to zero out that part of the equation. Or close to it, anyway.
But if it wasn’t for the ’socialist Europe’ country aspect I coulda had the same discussion with anyone on the farfarleft here. They just lovvvve their growing defense budget!

Even Ahmadinejad is finding out that Obama is finally seeing what George Bush knew from the start. That is, he is going to have to protect Americans from predators even those that start by killing their own citizens and blaming the USA.

Oh, I think we could cut without any onerous results.
Except maybe to local politicians and economies, but I’ve never been much for using the Defense budget as a local welfare program.
Europe? I suppose one can make the case that we need some staff for our NATO commitment – mostly headquarters types. All the others? Gone.
Japan? The Pacific? First, let’s get out of the way the places where we need Navy facilities. That still leaves a huge Marine and AF presence. Y’know, it’d be a lot cheaper to buy some fast cruise ships or transports (something the military has resisted for years) than maintain all those bases.
Then there’s the sexy, institutional ‘we’ve always done it’ stuff. Y’know those parachute thingies we used during WWII? Before helicopters? Before Ospreys? We still spend gazillions teaching Army guys how to parachute. And we spend a lot for the AF to help train. Then we pay’em all ‘jump’ pay every month. Which means they gotta parachute a few times a month to qualify….
You’ve heard me say before how the AF started paying pilots to stay in. Early 1990s when economy was great and airlines were hiring. Guess what? We still pay them a bonus of $20,000 a year for flying. And airlines have had a lousy hiring record for years. Airlines still have meganumbers furloughed. And the average starting pay for civilian pilots now? Remember, there are a lot more commuter and smaller airlines, plus the big ones have really cut back. Under $40,000. So do we really think these guys halfway to retirement making $150,000 a year are gonna bail for $35,000?
Now, if we could get back to funding the military to fight just ONE war. We’ve funded them for years to fight a couple. Hasn’t worked so well. So we oughta be able to cut back.
I could go on. Those were the easy ones. Didn’t even go into all the duplication within services, let alone between services.
Really, Dusty, I think we could be stronger in defending America’s interests than we are now. For a lot less $$$$.

I WILL HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO SAY PUBLICLY ABOUT THE MATTER.” I could have accepted that. But since he didn’t he should have resigned.

The pro Moussavi brigade tend to forget that this guy was one of the leftist who wanted to establish a Socialist state in Iran until the Ayatollahs elbowed the secular parties out of the government and then Moussavi did his chameleon show and became a rabid radical Islamist.
He has unmercifully used the young to further his own political agenda, primarily because they have forgotten what went on a decade before. This is the same guy who sent kids into minefields with little plastic keys to heaven with them as they were sent to trip off mines during the Iran/Iraq War. It was Moussavi’s idea to import 50,000 little plastic keys to put around the necks of children who were sent in human waves across the mine fields laid down by Saddam Hussein.
would be relevant to know who was prime minister of Iraq during the war. Was it the runner-up in this recent election?
Yes he was prime minister during the war. One edict was to deny drivers’ licenses to women who did not wear appropriate clothes ” Mousavi, as prime minister, announced that insufficiently covered women would be denied drivers licenses..
Mousavi became the 79th prime minister of Iran on 31 October 1981.[2], and remained the prime minister of Iran until 3 August 1989, for eight years.[5]
The conflicts between Mousavi, who belonged to the left wing of the Islamic Republic, with Ali Khamenei (the current leader of Iran), who belonged to the right wing of the Islamic Republic, continued during their eight years of shared governance.[5] However, an escalation in conflicts between the two led to Mousavi’s resignation shortly after the end of the Iran-Iraq war in 1988.[5] As the prime minister, Mousavi had the full backing of Ruhollah Khomeini, the supreme leader, and he refused to accept his resignation. Mousavi is remembered as leading a government that did not tolerate dissent”

This is such a load of crap. Republicans oppose gay marriage and abortion, yet liberals want to extrapolate these two positions into widespread invasion into personal lives and moralizing.
The truth is that nasty partisans of both stripes like to revel in the personal suffering of those who don’t share their very narrow opinions.

Both were religious, Granddaddy by conviction, Granny by “it’s the proper thing to do.” One day Granddaddy had been giving Granny grief over his objections to the way he was being treated. Frustrated, Granny said, “well, why don’t you just curse G-d and die, then!” I was horrified and went to Mama and told her what I had just heard. She burst out laughing which was even more confusing. She took down the Bible and showed me where Job’s wife told him that when he was lamenting his fate!
Incidentally, when people would ask why I was named Josef, Granddaddy would tell them it was not for the earthly father of Jesus, but for the Old Testament one. He said with all those older siblings I needed to be reminded every time I heard my name that they’d sell me to Egypt in a flash!
