Lost In the Jihad

Here is an interesting story that comes from the New Yorker written by Jane Mayer.  A very interesting piece, to say the least, Mayer’s article is a very in-depth look at what actually happened with the government’s case against John Walker Lindh.  No matter what view you take regarding Lindh, the details presented in this article offer a bizarre and even scary account of the strange politics surrounding this case, not to mention the circumstances surrounding Lindh himself.

The Language Police

Check out Diane Ravitch’s new book called The Language Police.  It’s a good read for anyone interested in the ways in which censorship occurs in America.  This is a great book into understanding the thinking behind those who wish to control the ways in which others think.

Politics

Evil GOP Bastards

Well, I guess the name says it all.  Not much need for a description here, but some very humorous stories about GOP leaders.  The old axiom: there is much truth in humor.  On a serious note, this site does bring to light some serious issues overlooked by mainstream media.  This site offers irascible scrutiny of the Grand Old Party combined with biting sarcasm.

Music

NOFX

One of the greatest punk rock bands, NOFX has come out with a new album called The War On Errorism.  Check it out!  Punk rock energy and a cohesive political rant make this a great album.  The words are great, and the music is as good or better as they have ever been.
