Sites Holmquist trys, and often fails, to go no more than a couple of days without visiting (some of which Holmquist regularly swipes links from without attribution)
I do blame Bush, but then again Bush did inform me that Americans ended slavery:
Americans... should never be surprised by the power of liberty to transform lives and nations. That power brought settlers on perilous journeys, inspired colonies to rebellion, ended the sin of slavery, and set our Nation against the tyrannies of the 20th century. We were honored to aid the rise of democracy in Germany and Japan and Nicaragua and Central Europe and the Baltics -- and that noble story goes on. I believe that America is called to lead the cause of freedom in a new century.
As an act of protest even more powerful than what I did yesterday when I sang "Luka" during the big speech, I will refuse to give a reply to this statement. It doesn't deserve one and anybody who cheered or thought it made sense is an idiot and/or looking forward to the time in their life when they can take history classes.

I don't know what exactly to say about the bumper sticker combination I saw today. One sticker said "Only Christ Is The Answer." Right below it, there was another bumper sticker featuring the U.S. Navy logo and "Life, liberty, and the pursuit of those who threaten them."
