The Life Zone

Three women have been kidnapped from abortion clinics and are being held for seven months–until they all give birth. The film, which appears to cut right down the middle, examining the topic from both sides, offers a powerful, anti-abortion climactic twist.

And no, this isn’t satire.

Mike Huckabee defends American Exceptionalism from Facts, History

What does it mean that Learn Our History is “unbiased”?

Learn Our History’s products have been developed to correct the “blame America first” attitude prevalent in today’s teaching. While we recognize that America is not perfect and has never been perfect we celebrate our incredible history with a balanced account of the events that created this great nation. We don’t feel bad about the great things America has achieved — we celebrate our success!

You’d think we’d be better at computer generated animation.

More heroic history at TPM.

What’s your favorite brand and style of underwear?

My favorite are the unfortunately named Cocksox’s boxer briefs. They are made of a synthetic, wicking, quick-dry material called (get this) ‘Supplex®.’  If you’re a cyclist, you probably want these. Oh, and their website is hilarious(ly bad).

When you get to a point at which you say, “Well, it can’t get any worse,” but then it does — and then it gets even worse, what do you do?

I know, I know. Go Dao. And I’m trying to get down with the Dao. I always do.

As my friend Steve used to say, “People won’t believe it.”

Think of me as Bruce Lee sitting in the pit in the scene beginning around 4:17 of this clip (from Enter the Dragon). It shows exactly how I feel tonight.
