Donald Rumsfeld is a great Secretary of Defense. Not perfect. But still great. His press conferences will go down as some of the most lively and forceful in D.C. history. Still, he gets goofy like when he refuses to call Iraqi insurgents “insurgents:”
“I’ve thought about it. And, over the weekend, I thought to myself, you […]
If you don’t listen to the Starkcast, you should. If your a weblogger you must listen to JimK strung out on Ambien yammering about odd sexual proclivities as well as ripping on Pajamas Media.

Here are some stories Charlie Sykes should talk about on his show today:
Summerfest ticket prices will go up. Any effect on attendence will depend on what acts come. $15 is still a great value.
Utility computing might be the wave of the future for business.
The Rockford, IL airport threw “Chicago” into its new name to draw […]
Instead of getting a set number of cable channels the FCC is about to urge cable companies to let consumers pick and choose what channels they want to pay for. Style, Nickelodeon, and Disney would immediately get the ax.

The first word to describe the Jordan Melo 5.5: Wow! It reminds me of the black Air Jordans I wore on the Hilbert High School basketball team. (Barely played though.) Nike’s finally put out a basketball shoe that doesn’t look like a boring hunk of leather. It looks great but not great enough for […]
I fell for online marketers’ claims that the Monday after Thanksgiving is the big online shopping day:
So what’s up with this Cyber Monday idea? A little bit of reality and a whole lot of savvy marketing. It turns out that Shop.org, an association for retailers that sell online, dreamed up the term just days before […]
In October, I wrote briefly about how city officials in Rivera Beach, FL want to kick out the lower and middle class residents to build high-end housing and marina. Today, the LA Times reports from the scene.

Here are some stories Charlie Sykes should talk about on his show today:
The Milwaukee United Way drive is still $5.4 million short with only a few days to go. No surprise. With charity drives for tsunami and hurricane relief, many of us are tapped out. It also wouldn’t hurt if the United Way would give […]

How beholden to labor unions is the Democratic Party? Very.
The Democratic National Committee plans to hold a meeting of about 400 people in New Orleans early next year as a way to express confidence in the city’s future after Hurricane Katrina, officials said.

The group usually uses only union hotels but got a special dispensation from […]
Tim Blair’s announcement that he’s leaving the Pajamas Media Editorial Board was a surprise. I didn’t expect that. He writes, “PM needs people who can devote themselves full-time to rescuing the project after a launch that was, to say the least, problematic.”
But I’m sure they had a good party.

Here’s what Charlie Sykes should talk about on his show today:
Citizens for Responsible Government want to go statewide and build up a $1 million warchest. Good luck, but don’t let your heads get to big. They seem to be swelling already. Chris Kliesmet said, “We don’t feel we ever lose a recall” even when they […]
A lengthy discussion that started with my post on Howard Dean, M.D. not mentioning God in his Thanksgiving statement moved to how I don’t actively engage commenters. Here’s my response:
Thanks DJ. The family is doing fine.
Here’s my approach to comments: I feel the need to respond to every one of them. Usually I stand by […]
