I’ve Been Dugg

No, I’m not talking about how the artist dug the sand to sculpt the monkey.

This is a snapshot from a set of snapshots I did back in the summer.

Someone out there liked them and dugg them about 16 hours ago.

Since then my set has been viewed 30,000 times. I’m get about a view a second right now.

Wild. I hope this doesn’t clog the Internet tubes :-)

The Advisors

George W. Bush is currently listening to advice about how to not lose in Iraq. Let’s be clear. The only way the US doesn’t lose in Iraq, from Bush’s perspective, is if they get to keep the permanent military bases they are building there. The goal is permanent occupation. Always has been.

In the meantime, while you ponder the implications of this, I offer you this link to a live stream of George W. Bush’s strategy session where he is listening to advice.

A Sad but Interesting Read…

From the Lew Rockwell Libertarian website…

The sad fact of the matter is that we are not fighting terrorists in Iraq. We are fighting the Iraqi people who feel like a conquered and occupied people. Personally I have a hard time believing that if I was an Iraqi that I wouldn’t be doing everything in my power to kill and maim as many Americans as possible. I know that the vast majority of Americans would not be happy with the Canadian government, or any other foreign government, liberating us from the clutches of George W. Bush, even though a large number of us would like that, and forcing us to accept their system of government. Would not millions of Americans rise up and fight back? Would you not rise up to protect and defend your house and your neighborhood if someone invaded your country? But we send thousands of troops to a foreign country to do just that. How is it moral to fight a people who are just trying to defend their homes and families? I think next time I go to Iraq perhaps I should wear a bright red coat and carry a Brown Bess instead of my digitalized utilities and M16.

This seems worthy of support on a number of levels.
