In the dog eat dog world of blogdom, my crisis and career induced hiatus from blogging has put me in the unadmirable position of being dropped from the link-love sections of numerous blogs. All of which means I have to whore for hits again, which is demeaning and awful, but not the least bit below me.

BTW- William Quick (aka Dailypundit has a new URL).

The More Things Change…

If you are as tired of the smarmy banter coming from our Eurotrash friends, here is some commentary from P.J. O’Rourke abut the Israeli Palestine issue, written back before 1988. The piece is title Among the Euro-Weenies, and in the segment I am posting here, he is having a discussion with his radical London friend Meg.

“There is,”” said Meg, “at the back of the American psyche the feeling that the American way is best.”

As opposed to what? As opposed to living in seedy, old, down-at-the-heels Englan with an eighteenth-century class system and seventeenth century plumbing? Or as opposed to lining up for pita-bread ration cars in a half-assed African sandlot run by a fanatical big mouth with a dish towel on his head?

“What do you think we should be doing?” I asked Meg.

“Sitting down in a really serious way to solve the Middle East problem is what Reagan should be doing.”

“What if it won’t solve?” I said. “I know the source of this terrorism is the Israeli-Palestinian problem. And that’s a place where two wrongs don;t make a right. But it’s also a place where two rights don;t make a right.”

“The Palestinian problem has to be treated in a much more serious way,” said Meg.

The Europeans are great ones for solving problems by taking them more seriously.

It goes on and on, but I think you get the hint. Although Hosni Mubarak, de facto leader of the virulently anti-semitic and anti-American Egyptian press just says that Arafat needs more time.

Well Glory Be- The Funk’s On Me!

Via Layne’s comments board, this link to a quicktime video of the Nike Hoops commercials. They own.

4 months and some until the election, and Gray Davis is beginning to unload some of the money he blackmailed from corporate contributors in a coordinated negative ad campaign against Bill Simon.

I expect Ken Layne will be all over this story once his Lakers finish off the Nets tomorrow night. I am sure the West Coast bloggers such as he and Welch will have plenty to say about the issue.

From the No-Shit Department:

Drudge has a link to a yahoo story which states that 51% of polled Palestinians want the abolition of Israel as the end result of the latest uprising and that 68% of them approve of using suicide bombers against innocent civilians.

All of this leads me to ask- are there innocent civilians in the occupied territories? If 2/3 of them are in favor of launching terror strikes against innocent Israelis, and actually work towards that goal, aid and abet the terrorists, how can we even pretend that they are innocent???

BTW- Whatever happened to the Jenin Massacre? Snicker…

It has been about 5-6 weeks since my last substantive post, and the bastard Arafat is still alive. Now Hosni Mubarak is telling us all in a media blitz that we just need to give him a chance. Someone just shoot Arafat, and let us start over.
