Gone Silent 

Like Billmon. Except I keep the site up as repository for hundreds of links that I found interesting and relevant at the time, and sometimes still do.

Oh, and there's all that stuff I wrote, too.

Like George W. Hayduke, there's always the chance that I may turn up again some day. Until then, Happy Trails.

Mark Morford's Email 

Too good to pass up:
Conservative values and the people who adhere to them are going to crush you liberals. I don't care if you do elect Hillary, which you won't, we will crush you. I despise liberal values, your cowardice and blind stupidity. We will finish you off. You are a danger to the country and with the help of talk radio we will destroy you. You are cockroaches, nothing else. Reading your newspaper is like paying the cops to beat you, then thanking them.
Go read all of them. There is no shortage of work for the mental health industry in the foreseeable future.

Out of the Business 

Since Fredo appears to be out of the family business, at least for the moment, I thought maybe we could listen to The Tubes.

Did I ever mention that I knew Fee Waybill, back in the day?

Bye, Fredo 

I think my favorite quote comes from Josh Marshall.

Resigning to "spend more time with his defense lawyer."

Why does Bush hate children?

Yeah, just fuck the little shits. They can't vote, anyway.

Suicide 

AP:
Failed personal relationships, legal and financial problems and the stress of their jobs were factors motivating the soldiers to commit suicide, according to the report.

"In addition, there was a significant relationship between suicide attempts and number of days deployed" in Iraq, Afghanistan or nearby countries where troops are participating in the war effort, it said. The same pattern seemed to hold true for those who not only attempted, but succeeded in killing themselves.

There also "was limited evidence to support the view that multiple ... deployments are a risk factor for suicide behaviors," it said.

Finally, a product Rain Storm can endorse with our full enthusiasm (Now in Suppository form!)

A Gay Swift Boat for Rudy 

Rather than making a big deal out of that evil Daily Kos, the Republicans should really be worrying about how progressives learned how to fight dirty from Karl Rove.

I'm sure Rudy will be ever so grateful to Turd Blossom the boy genius when this starts running in South Carolina.

Giuliani wants to be Big Brother 

I get it now.

Slipping into the Big Time 

Congratulations to Man Eegee (though I'm still not sure how to pronounce that) whose Blogging 2.0 got picked up on the Sunday evening Diary Rescue over at Daily Kos.

In these parts, Man Eegee is better known for his blog Latino Politico.

Death Wish 

Sometimes I wonder if I've been a bit shrill in suggesting that most wingers are in serious need of professional mental health services.

But when I see stuff like this, all doubt vanishes in a flash.

It's like saying "If we give up and let the Nazi's take over, it will be good for America because then everybody will realize how important freedom really is." Sorry. I ain't going there.

Duncan has good observations here. Steve Benen chimes in here:
The surprising part of this, however, is that a variety of far-right media outlets seemed to embrace Bykofsky's message. ThinkProgress noted that Drudge seemed to think highly of the piece, conservative radio host Mike Gallagher invited Bykofsky on to his show, and Fox News' John Gibson went so far as to endorse Bykofsky's thesis on the air: "I think it's going to take a lot of dead people to wake America up."

For a column that pines for mass murder, this isn't the reaction I expected.
Acutally, it's getting pretty hard to know what to expect from the lunatic fringe anymore.
