Weirdest. Political Survey. Ever.

When people wonder why I suggest the possibility that the whole Iraq war obsession of Bush’s is about showing that he’s a “bigger” man than his father, now I can show them this…

74% of readers surveyed think Bush wears a codpiece.

Read this. Now.
And then bear in mind that if you closed an editorial the way he does, you’d get a visit from the nice men from the Secret Service… and they say we we have freedom of the press in America?

…that he wouldn’t give a straight answer on Roe-v-Wade.

Stop-loss orders as a backdoor draft?

Christopher K Davis posted a very interesting discussion of this on rec.arts.sf.fandom.

At the last debate, I would have liked to hear a much stronger opposition to a possible draft from Kerry. Of course, Bush’s statement that (paraphrasing) “there will be no draft as long as I’m President” is worth no more than any of his other promises, given his record of lies.

Bush vs. Clinton, on the record…

You’ve probably seen the “Life then, life now” nostalgia lists.

Now there’s a “Clinton’s record, Bush’s record” list on John Aravosis’s blog. Some of it may be a little oversimplified, but if something ever really DESERVED to turn into a mass-forwarded email, this is it, and it’s effing awesome.
