If the Hsu Fits…

Bruce at No Looking Backwards has a wonderful slogan for Hillary’s campaign, available as a bumper sticker at his CafePress site:

Hey, Bruce! Offer that as a T-shirt, and I’ll buy one.

UPDATE: Hillary does damage control. She’ll return $850,000 to “about 260 donors” (average $3,269 per donor). Nice donors! Further:

The Clinton campaign also disclosed last night that it would begin running criminal background checks on its bundlers — the dozens of individuals who raise hundreds of thousands of dollars from donors on behalf of a candidate, as Mr. Hsu had done for Mrs. Clinton.

Boy, there’s a novel idea! I wonder why that wasn’t part of the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform Act?

That’s gotta hurt, but a couple of cattle-futures trades and she’ll make it right back, I’m sure.

I Am SO Going to Bake in Heck…

Fellow gunblogger Clayton Cramer has a problem with – what’s the expression? “Non-heteronormative” people. Seeing that San Francisco is ground zero for the “as far from ‘heteronormative’ as is possible to get and still have 23 chromosome pairs,” he gets a lot of fodder from the Bay area. His most recent post on the topic covers two recent “demonstrations” – one was the “Transmarch,” which I’m not even going to comment on, and the other was “The World Naked Bike Ride 2007.”

An image I cached a long, long time ago came immediately to mind I’m ashamed to say, but I find myself strangely unable to refrain from posting it any longer:

(This was a poster put out by the group itself, so they had a sense of humor about it anyway.)

I have to wonder if Chamois Butt’r would help with that? (Somebody, please stop me…)

Cheap Shot (No Pun Intended).

Carnivore sex off the menu

Vegansexuals are people who do not eat any meat or animal products, and who choose not to be sexually intimate with non-vegan partners whose bodies, they say, are made up of dead animals.

Christchurch vegan Nichola Kriek has been married to her vegan husband, Hans, for nine years.

She would not describe herself as vegansexual, but said it would definitely be a preference.

She could understand people not wanting to get too close to non-vegan or non-vegetarians.

“When you are vegan or vegetarian, you are very aware that when people eat a meaty diet, they are kind of a graveyard for animals,” she said.

Here are Nichola and Hans:

This begs one question: Being vegan, does she swallow?

Sorry, Been Out of Town.

On business. With no internet access. And now I’ve got to catch up around the house, and load some ammo for a range trip in a week or so. Plus I’ve got to catch up on my reading. Did we slavering hoarde of gun-nuts hound another innocent old man out of a job at the behest of the eeeeevil NRA yet? No one sent me any marching orders, and I’m feeling left out.

Named Estates.

“Monticello,” “Mount Vernon,” “Biltmore House,” “Pickfair,” “Tara.”

And now Democratic Presidential candidate John Edwards’ new little bungalow:
