Ever wonder what was on the hard drive of terrorist kingpin Abu Musab al-Zarqawi? Well, now we know:
On the hard drive was everything from information about Zarqawi’s medical condition to pictures of himself, kept in a file labeled “My Pictures.”
Oh, what I would give to see the roll from “Our Family Vacation in Iraq.”
Also [...]

Then again, you read this kind of stuff and it makes you realize that all the shouting and screaming and whooping and hollering is for nothing.

Ok, so apparently I’m pretty late to this game, but I have to take a moment and re-direct viewers to Oliver Willis’ Brand Democrat site. Great stuff. I love this t-shirt:

Almost makes me want to be a Democratic partisan again. Almost. And that’s the idea of Brand Democrat, I presume: [...]

This is a fascinating story, if only to watch the snarky New York Times try and squeeze in the phrase “gay Republican political operative” into every other sentence (see the photo caption).
Shh… can you hear that? It’s the sound of a self-satisfied smirk over at the NYT copy desk.

Are the Republicans insane?
For the life of me, I can’t fathom why the GOP, party of the Fellatio Impeachment, refuses to acknowledge the obvious — that Tom DeLay sets the bar for Congressional corruption in the 21st century.

Bush’s decision to cozy up to DeLay today, and how that differed from Bush’s reaction to Lott, which was to distance himself and basically engineer Lott’s downfall. [...]

Interesting take on the peculiar mathematics of the Senate as it relates to who, in fact, represents “the majority” (via Slate):
What about reality? Well, if each of every state’s two senators is taken to represent half that state’s population, then the Senate’s fifty-five Republicans represent 131 million people, while its forty-four Democrats represent 161 million. [...]

In case you’re curious as to the actual identity of the 4 judges the Democrats are so hell-bent on stopping, head over to Nuclear Nom Central, a.k.a. The Slant.
In the words of Glenn Reynolds, “just keep scrolling.”
Turns out these 4 judges ARE just plain whack. Keep up the fight, Senator Reid!

Robert L. Jaimeson is arguing unpersuasively that Microsoft buckled in its support for Washington-state non-discrimination laws out of fear of “the red Republican tide rolling across the country.” He continues:
