Random Morsels
his month's Penguin Dope Slap goes to Univ. of Colorado poorfessor Ward Churchill, who says things like "On the morning of September 11, 2001, a few more chickens – along with some half-million dead Iraqi children – came home to roost in a very big way at the twin towers of New York's World Trade Center."
Now he plans on appearing at Hamilton College in NY, and people are pissed. Thanks to Little Green Footballs for holding the line against ivory tower idiocy.
Take that, Poorfessor Churchill:
If you want to read this fool's paper, ""Some People Push Back" On the Justice of Roosting Chickens," go here. (I say fool because he is not stupid. Many people with intelligence are fools. And fools can mouth idiocy. I've done it myself, but usually I correct myself when discovered.)
- Here's your chance to Shake the Holiday Snowglobe.
- One of the best of the Iraqi blogs, Hammorabi. It's in English and Arabic. Here's Hammorabi's list of why Iraqis will vote in the election:
To say NO for the terrorists!
Iraqi Constitution!
Elected government for 3 or 4 years!
Elected parliament!
Freedom of talk!
Opposition parties practice without blood shed and coups!
Peace!
Equality!
Prosperity!
Strong Economy!
Friendship rather than hate with the civilised nations and states!
No wars!
No place for terrorists!
Good education!
Better health and services!
Iraq for the Iraqis irrespective of who they are except the killers and terrorists!
The Iraqi fine oil is for the people not the dictators and their gangs!
Justice!
Law above all!
No place for the mad dogs!
Just and sooner Trial for the former members of the massgraves killing fields!
- In India a family gets greedy.
- If you're still trying to figure out my politics, go to the archives and read ConsLibModism.
- Some salad dressing with your sheep's brain?
- In our principals without principles department...
- "Give me your wallet...and your phone number.
I've decided to move Random Morsels to Fridays. Makes more sense news-wise.
*** Victory goes to whoever makes the second-to-last mistake.
Update: More Churchill information.
