First CupI never drink coffee at lunch. I find it keeps me awake for the afternoon. ~ Ronald Reagan

Happy 2nd Blogiversary to
Basil’s Blog!

Blue Crab Boulevard (Gaius) In This Corner…. — “The Washington Post describes what had to be an extremely awkward dinner party despite all the protestations of mutual admiration. Ted “I think I’ll swim home and catch a nap” Kennedy hosting his good pals Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama along with some other people who know darn well they don’t matter in this fight.”

Captain’s Quarters (Ed Morrissey) Not Exactly A Hit Abroad — “Everyone but the ISG and their cheerleaders understand that the main thrust of their report is built on fantasy. Iran and Syria will not voluntarily end their support and direction of terrorism just because we ask them to a big meeting. They have a vested interest in the collapse of the Iraqi democracy and its relationship with America. Suggesting that the situation in Iraq could be improved by the Israelis giving the Golan Heights and its strategic advantages to the Syrians for nothing is nonsense on stilts, as the saying goes, and everyone but the American political elite know it.”

Iowa Voice (Brian) Ok, I’m NOT “Closing Up Shop” After All — “So, I invite you to keep checking back in, because I intend on talking about anything I feel like. That’s what this site is. It’s an opinion and commentary site, not a news site. I believe I’ve said that in the past. I’m not a reporter or some talk show pundit, I’m just a regular guy like you who follows the news, politics, and current events and likes to talk about it. =D” [Congratulations, Brian. This is good news indeed. Jim]

The 2006 Weblog Awards Voting Opens For The 2006 Weblog Awards — “Voting for The 2006 Weblog Awards is now open.” [Sadly, there is no write-in option. ;-) Jim]
