So it begins.

The Governor ain’t having it.

I think it is way past time that we follow Kos’ lead and “starve the story of oxygen” - by that I mean starve the NY Times of the one thing it needs to survive: money.

Michelle has details and reader reactions.

It’s time to call for a national boycott of all NY Times advertisers.
It’s time for bloggers to stop linking to the NY Times.
It’s time to call for all responsible and patriotic Americans to drop their NY Times subscriptions (Natalie Maines can keep hers).
It’s time to call for the prosecution of all NY Times employees and sources involved in leaking the classified information.

It’s time for this administration to draw a line - here and no further. Treason will be prosecuted and if this isn’t treason, I don’t know what is.

**UPDATE**

Greg was kind enough to create the boycott graphic toward the top of the sidebar. Feel free to copy and use if you are so inclined.

Notice that nowhere is there a mention that this sick f’ing asshole is going to be deported.

“I think you can be an honest person and lie about any number of things.” - Dan Rather

It’s a pretty good bet he’s the one that came up with “fake, but accurate.”

Good f’n riddance.

It sure is starting to look like it - I pray it is.

Yep, Pataki has really screwed this up beyond all comprehension. Don’t know what I’m talking about? Well, check out the primer below. Things could get interesting again over the next few weeks.

The war with Scientology has just begun! All hail Xenu!

Those resourceful Dutch! Cause nothing says “I don’t want to behead you” like a good ‘ol game of soccer.

“Muslim-gay tension” - heh. Sounds like things would be better dealt with in a bath house than a soccer field.

He wants to know why an Arab company is held to a different standard than a British one? Well, fine. Here are 19 of them. Notice the lack of Brits?

You know, I am perfectly willing to entertain the idea as long as I know the details, how the deal was reviewed, what questions were asked, what answers given, and what security measures have been put into place. But this “you tell me why this is a bad idea” crap isn’t going to fly.

No, Mr. President. YOU tell ME why this is a good idea, then we’ll talk.

“But on that September day we were unprepared. We did not grasp the magnitude of a threat that had been gathering over time. As we detail in our report, this was a failure of policy, management, capability, and - above all - a failure of imagination.” - 911 Commission Report, Public Statement Chair and Vice Chair

Does that phrase sound familiar? Well, not if you are reading lefty blogs. But, if you were a Democrat that voted for Gore in 2000 that has since changed parties, you will likely remember uttering that to yourself the morning of September 11, 2001.

I know I said it - many many times that day, and I am certain I am not alone. I say it again today with renewed emphasis after Gore’s latest stunt. Thank God Bush won, both times.
