 Khatami indicted in Iran for holding hands. Gateway. He listened to too much early Beatles when he was just a little imam.
Like outboard engines? Look at this. I don't know what it is, but I bet it is loud. The story of the press donating 9:1 to Dems: I agree with Captain Ed. Let 'em do it. It's a free country. Pursue balance by starting your own newspaper, as did The New York Sun. Be glad you didn't read Krugman. Atlas. Betsy has been reading many of the same books I have been reading. She likes Jean Edward Smith's new bio of Marshall. OK, will do. Scientific proof that Cheney did 9-11. Attack Machine video. The Salon Blog Report has been reading and linking us lately. Much appreciated. Taunting the Thought Police: A few non-PC but typical man-on-the-street comments via Tim Blair, who is awaiting the arrival of the Thought Police as we speak. Photo: Theo stopped by to take a photo of one our our Maggie's Farm milkmaids wearing traditional Vermont barn clothing. When the gals head down to the cow barn at 4 AM in the summertime, they like to dress comfortably but elegantly. They need the gloves so they don't get calluses, and the heels keep them above the cowpies. The straps are, of course, a delicate female version of red suspenders.

 How easy is it to cross the border from Mexico without hassles? Polipundit. Very.
Bill Gates needs a basic econ course. RCP Candidates: Who gives you the creeps? Somebody did a poll. Shuttle update. They had an interesting trip, but it's time to come home. EU running scared of the people. Brussels Journal/ Tell me what the difference is between what Napoleon wanted and what the EU wants. More: Editorial on the subject of the EU Constitution at NY Sun. I remain confused about why the Europeans would want anything more than an economic treaty. What for? To solve what problem? French regs putting French grape growers on the ropes. Newt's immigration video. To the point. What if the middle east doesn't want peace? What if many of them like to fight, and find peace a bore? What if many of them don't care whether they live or die? A bad time to be a Christian in Gaza. But Gaza's wishes all came true, didn't they? This kid has balls. RTLC. And so does this kid. Aussies building a big new navy. At the same time that the Brits are shrinking theirs to nothing. The immigration bill is back, key vote Friday. Not your father's NH. NH bans bar and restaurant smoking. Trans fats next, and then guns? Charles Kesler in the Claremont Review, via No Left Turns. A quote: "The writ to use force against him [Saddam] and his regime was cogent and persuasive. But the decision to turn that deterrent, punitive, and preventive action into the occasion for elaborate democratic reconstruction was, alas, ill-conceived. Iraq was not that important to us. It could seem that important...only by imagining that an utterly transformed Iraq would be an outpost of liberal democracy in the Middle East...and that Iraq in turn would utterly transform the whole Middle East into a land of milk and honey, not to mention democracy and peace."
A reader quoted at Insty about Congress' terrible poll numbers: I think there is a greater disconnect between the Political Class and the Public than ever before -- and, to quote a phrase -- deservedly so. The most liberal senator has more in common with the most conservative senator than either has in common with you or me, and we know it.

 The Left dislikes Bloomberg's pay-for-grades idea. Why? From Moonbattery:
Incredibly, moonbats are attacking the program from the left. Screeches Margy Waller, a domestic policy advisor in the Clinton Administration: It just reinforces the impression that if everybody would just work hard enough and change their personal behavior we could solve poverty in this country, and that's not reflected in the facts. You see, the idea that people could rise out of poverty through their own effort is dangerous crazy talk.
Sheesh. Talk about dangerous crazy talk. Is she saying that everyone wants to come to America for the government freebies and not for opportunity? That is sick. If you have kids after you get married, and stay married, and finish high school, and quit drugs, and maybe move to where jobs are, it is almost impossible to be poor in America. Otherwise, you must want to be poor. And, speaking of the Mayor, his party switch is really meaningless. He was a Dem, switched to Repub to run for Mayor. Now he's indep. I like and admire the guy, but his politics are for the birds. He is very smart but unwise. I agree with Glenn: I'd like to see a third-party candidate, but I'd like one who stands for more freedom, not less, and the nannyish Lee Kuan Yew-wannabe Bloomberg clearly doesn't fit that description.
James Hansen ups the ante yet again. But we're still not scared, Jim. Lubos Motl takes a look at Hansen's paper. And now China passes the US in CO2 production. Ethanol: A farm subsidy program pretending to be an energy policy. Exactly. The idea of using food for fuel should be crazy on the face of it. Gas prices: From Bernard at TCS: Like most of the American public, I have stood at the pump at my local filling station and cursed the cost of gasoline. Yet, after filling my tank I inevitably drive to Starbucks to stand in line with other women seeking a reprieve from morning mommy detail, handing over $4.24 without batting an eye as I order my beloved venti, soy chai latte.
And re taxing "big oil," guess who will be paying those taxes. Sneaky, because it won't show up as a tax at the pump - just in the pricing. So you won't get mad at Congress - you'll get mad at Mobil. Environmental Economics asks how high gas prices need to be before people reduce consumption. The Scottish Enlightenment and the idea of America. View from 1776. This is pretty funny: Hillary picking her theme song, Sopranos-style. video. Al Gore made 100 million since he lost the election. Lucky or smart? Or handed deals because of who he is? I don't know about you, but I prefer my gravy smooth and the sausage on the side.

 Outdoor people often tend to misunderestimate black bears and only fear Grizzlies. Bad bear story. Tragic indeed. Up here in the Massachusetts Berkshires, we have tons of Black Bears. I saw one two weeks ago running across the road.
Brand new pair of rollerskates. Update on Melanie and Donovan. Assistant Village Idiot The Pres of Vietnam comes to call. Not a free country, but definitely capitalistically-inclined. Gateway Free Scooter Libby! Hitchens. The entire story stinks, in my opinion. Not to defend perjury, which needs to be a crime but which is frequently not pursued as a crime. I must confess that I had to look up "nugatory." Cool word because it sounds so nugaty. More Hitchins: Fine summary of the story of Jefferson and the Barbary Pirates. America's first encounter with pesky Moslems helped create our idea of the United States. Recycling is bad for global warming. But since I don't care about global warming, should I begin recycling? Church shopping in the 1980s. Right Wing Nation Go to jail in Sweden if you say something unpleasant - if accurate - about Kosovar Albanians. Gates of Vienna. Aren't they drug dealers? Getting serious about Key Lime Pie. We are always serious about Key Lime Pie. In fact, in season, you can buy fresh Key Limes up here - in the fancy stores.
Warshak v. United States. Orin Kerr at Volokh. What's the role of the 4th Amendment as applied to email?

 The quantum computer will make our machines look like the horse and buggy. Science Daily. More details here.
A cheap MRI. "I am not going to pay a lot for this MRI." Weekly Standard Putin is a martial artist. Never Yet melted. Not surprised. Is The Guardian obstuse about Hamas? Hatemonger. I cannot be that charitable: They are propagandizers for Hamas. Beware of government as the last action hero. Mark Steyn Was Scooter Libby a surrogate defendant? A scapegoat for Armitage? Is Universal Health Care just a Trojan Horse for greater control? Coyote The US: The cause of all problems on the earth. Driscoll The joke that the UN has become, plus a very funny comment - really a series of comments -from Donald Trump about UN incompetence. From a piece at Dinocrat: ...recent history has shown, as it did in the day of Churchill (The River War), the real destruction that can be unleashed, as in Gaza, by the young, bloodthirsty, and religiously hopped-up, who come to love the frenzy of wanton destruction. If such men enjoy their days of slashing throats, shooting the random bypasser, and raping and pillaging and then retire back to families and villages that welcome and house and feed them, what, ultimately, is the alternative to razing those villages?

 Israel will attack Gaza. via Drudge. I suspect they may show America how to do it right, but probably without an obsessional concern with collateral damage.
Repub Senators in danger. Surber. The worst part is that they deserve to be. They aren't called "the stupid party" for nothing. Most smart Repubs go into the world, not into politics, so you end up with bozos like Trent Lott, and with folks who cannot communicate, like George Bush. 60% of Baghdad not under control. It's crunch time. But Flopping Aces says stay the course. Clearly, there are problems trying to fight a compassionate war: it's an oxymoron. Speaking of which, read Habu's comments on the post prior to this one. A quote from Leon De Winter: During the past four years, 170,000 Americans have died in traffic accidents. For young people, traveling in a car is the leading cause of death. Over the same period, 3,500 Americans were killed in Iraq in a war against radical Islam. These statistics haven't been properly contrasted.
Voters are such an annoyance, Part 334. EU pursues superstate powers by bypassing national referenda. It's a perfect set-up for future civil war within the EU, because some people are trying to build an Empire without force of arms. Consider it - Napoleon and Austria and Germany and Russia tried to do the same thing. Speaking of Ramblin' Jack Elliot. Elliot Agnopoz, born as the son of a doctor in Brooklyn. Even "authentic" show biz is fake. I do like Ramblin' Jack, though, even though "ramblin'" referred to his tendency to ramble when he speaks rather than riding the rails. Who doesn't like him? Almost forgot to link that Schwartzenegger story about learning English. What a joke. Learn English - it's a fine language. I wish Bush could speak it.

 As you know, Nifong resigned in disgrace. Every detail of the trial at Durham in Wonderland. Thus far, no apologies from the Duke faculty who so desperately wanted the rape story to be true.

John Edwards the Witch Doctor. An ambulance-chaser thinks he is going to solve Health Care! Solve what? Surber. Hahaha. The Cornish Liberation Army. h/t, Blair Roger Simon interviews The Great Steyn, on video. Pajamas California wants all dogs castrated. That doesn't sound very nice, but Classical Values opines that what they really want is all males neutered. Speaking of castration, Synthstuff has a perfect pair of balls. Why Gaza now? Powerline Flipping out about the flipping Senators. View from the Right. "When they say "cycle of violence", it means Pallie attacking Jew. When they say "senseless violence", it means Pallie attacking Pallie." SDA 2000 Waterbury CT students may need to repeat grade. Don't they have Truant Officers any more?

Clearly, the problem in Gaza is that people talk too much about Good and Evil. John at Powerline.

 Stumbling on Happiness: A book I want to read. h/t, Dino, who has a quote.
"We got it whether we liked it or not." A Brit on immigration. Small Dead Gophers. The Haditha story. Bruce Kesler has been following it closely. I suspect that all will be exonerated, but their lives will be in ruins and their hearts broken. The deportation abyss. Why is it so difficult to throw someone out? Michelle Gaza. It's now a brand-new mini-state in the Middle East, controlled by Iran. Some wag on a blog (I forget who) noted that the Palis now have their two-state solution: Gaza, and the West Bank. At Ace, But we're not Jews. Antioch College surrenders to reality. Jag, Volvo and Land Rover are for sale. '08 Elections. I hate discussing this - it's way too early. However, I think McCain is a goner. I think the old-time smoke-filled back rooms might have picked Romney. I think Giuliani could win a national election, but could have trouble with some primaries. I like Fred Thompson.

 I do not care for cats, but that is one cool Savannah Cat in the photo. Story at Synthstuff. If that animal wandered around the neighborhood, somebody would lock up the kids and call Animal Control.
Evil, evil nativist requests that people speak English. Protein Wisdom. Personally, I demand that you speak English, unless I feel like practicing my French or German. A call to arms in Britain. About time. Confederate Yank, He talk like a white boy. LaShawn CAIR is a Potemkin Village. Powerline. 26 donors, and they put their spokesmen on TV? CAIR is now a proven scam. From "global warming" to "climate change." Shrinkwrapped thinks that change in wording heralds the end of that silliness. Menopause chic. Neo-neocon. Big Babies. The press wants special treatment. Dr. Sanity. They live in a dream world, like academics. It's not the economy, stupid. Viking. Find another issue. The grim truth about Darfur. Sometimes you have to let the fire burn, and wring your hands, and wish there were something to do, says Jeff Harrell. D-Day. Another badly mismanaged battle plan. Aren't they all, in retrospect?

Everybody's talking about the 4th Circuit's Al-Marri v. Wright decision. Orin Kerr proposes a hypothetical situation to try to clarify the issues. My question is this: If Moslem terrorists - who view themselves as combatants - aren't combatants, then what the heck are they? Do we need a new category? If we need a new category, may I propose one? Let's call it "Jihadists," and make the laws which would apply. Waiting until after they kill people seems lame to me, as it did to Lincoln and to FDR. And besides, how do you arrest a successful suicide bomber anyway?
 A great Connecticut couple.
20 years ago today, Reagan almost did not say "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall." Will amateurs threaten the porn industry? Crittenden. I have always found it amusing that hookers refer to non-working girls as "amateurs" in the same way that cops and soldiers refer to others as "civilians." How Tyranny arrived in Zimbabwe.

 Sweden, Today. It is getting depressingly Brave New World-ish. Teaching little kids how to be transvestites, however, seems illogical to me.
Captain Ed says the Fred campaign did not come out of nowhere. The elites hate to give credit for brains to folks with Southern accents...except for Bill Clinton. The NYT somehow manages to make the Eastern European enthusiasm for America look like less that what it is. Tried hard, too. How McKinsey blew it for AT&T. How did all of those smart guys imagine that people wouldn't want cell phones? Samizdata Cafe Hayek on Landsberg's fine piece in the WSJ. It's about human progress, and how it happens. Bank of America giving credit cards to illegals. (h/t, a piece at View from the Right) Schwartzenegger's spending spree. I guess he'd rather join 'em than lead 'em. Why Africa is difficult to help. Gee, it's the same reason everyone is difficult to help.

 Sopranos. I can't watch - haven't caught up with the season yet. Disgusting people, but great television. Don't tell me what happens, but I'll probably hear somewhere anyway.
Peggy Noonan on The Greatness of the Sopranos. Napoleon's battle sword at auction. Want a simpler way of life? Go for it, but leave me alone. Carnival of the Insanities. Always fun Cool facts about ants. Yo ho ho. Pirates and governance. Prof. B Cockburn slams Gore. Blue Crab Boy Scouts in Iraq. Surber Rick Moran: "I like Paris Hilton." Pelosi sleaze. Why are Dems always so obsessed with money? From Gates of Vienna: When reality clashes with dreams, is it then really the role and responsibility of the press to try to disguise reality? If so, I think the dream is becoming a nightmare, when unrealistic dreams are being forced upon us.
Sanity from Vaclav Klaus. Melanie Phillips (h/t, Tim Blair) And more insanity from Sen. Russ Feingold. Were we mean to Germans during WW2? Damn right we were.

 A vigorous three-hour ride this morning - Mrs. Barrister wanted us to canter most of the time to tire out the horses, and I almost got thrown when a garter snake decided to cross the trail and freaked out the horse - as they always do. You know the sideways, backwards, up-in-the-air dance they do? It's a little snake rodeo. Two sets of singles tennis this afternoon. Now, it is cocktail hour. I think, maybe, a gin and tonic. Then a swim. Then a cigar and another G&T.
Who can beat the NYT in trivializing culture? New Criterion Shopping for medical insurance. Coyote London would be better off Islamic, says the Left. Out of left field. How Fred Thompson became a player, without playing. Immigration polls. Gateway. Also, a rant against filling the USA with Mexicans. Also, from Dino: I also asked my source why he thought so many Republicans had been supporting such an incredibly unpopular bill. He gave three reasons: First off, there was what he referred to as the “Rovian School of thought,” which says that passing this bill would capture the Hispanic vote for the GOP for decades to come. Next up, there’s the “Chamber of Commerce” vote. He says these Republicans were heavily influenced by business groups that want cheap labor no matter what the cost is for the rest of the country. Then there was the last group, the smallest group in his opinion, who were willing to sign onto a terrible bill just so they could say they were part of a big reform that had bipartisan support.
Last Weds, a mocking trout rises for a bug six feet to the right of our friend. Lucky photo, cruel fish.

 Our News Junkie is still at sea. Here are a few of my gleanings today.
A word on evil, capitalist Peach barons. Sippican. Big Peaches once ran America, back in the day. Then it was Big Prunes, then Big Tobacco, then Big Oil, and now - Big Blogs, like us, rule the world and, indeed, the cosmos itself. LaShawn is ready to shut down a certain organization. Who is supposed to pay for these stupid biofuels? Not me. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Brits fed up with immigration. The govt doesn't care. Small Dead Lemmings Found a new blog I like: The Oxford Medievalist. So many blogs, so little time. In praise of bad writing. Yes, some of us cannot help it. Is a G8 a jet? Mr. Free Market Also, re G8: A quote from Tangled Web: Oddly enough, and despite all the green rhetoric, EU emissions have been RISING even as US emissions have been FALLING. And even worse for the eco-wacko's, the carbon credits so beloved of so many, have been shown to be at best environmentally neutral, if not an outright fraud. And with China and India very clear that they will NOT be restricting their economic growth to keep Angela happy, the ambitions of Merkel and her socialists cronies can be seen to little more than hot air.
 What's the most important news story of the day?
Paris Hilton, of course. I guess life must be good in the USA if she is the Big Story. Paris Hilton is a great, walking, almost-talking argument for recreational sex without involvement. One small step above the inflatable sheep thing.

 I am filling in for the News Junkie while he is taking an undeserved boating vacation. I'll do my best.
The NY Sun defends Justice Thomas against NYT smears. The piece is highly revealing of the NYT's mind-set, which has nothing to do with the Constitution. From the standpoint of the Left, the Constitution has been replaced by the sentiment of the hour - which is exactly why you need a Constitution. Lifson on the neglected truths of the immigration debate. American Thinker. Excellent. If this bill dies in the Senate, everyone wins, more or less, and Bush did his best to sacrifice national sovereignty on the altar of the Mexican vote. Did you see Crisis on Omaha Beach at Powerline? Very mild. The Prof's revolutionary new cure for ADHD in the classroom. How is your albedo? A simple way to make the earth colder. But do we really want to? We are having the coldest June in 7,043 years here in Hartford. You can look it up. Al Gore's hell on earth. At RCP. The man is definitely over the edge. A quote, with Al Gore quotes: "When we do rise, it will fill our spirits and bind us together. Those who are now suffocating in cynicism and despair will be able to breathe freely. Those who are now suffering from a loss of meaning in their lives will find hope." When we rise, "we will experience an epiphany as we discover that this crisis is not really about politics at all. It is a moral and spiritual challenge."
Holy Mackerel, Al! Where's my spare straitjacket? Get the nurse. This is a severe case of psychotic hyperreligiosity.

 I will be away for a few days fishing, boating and beaching around Rhode Island and "The Islands." Heading off to Watch Hill tonight, and will pick up the boat in the morning in Newport. We are planning on touching down on Block Island of course, Cuttyhunk, the Vineyard, Yuppie Nantucket where we will be the smallest craft in the harbor, and probably Chatham - living on fish, beer, and clams on our leased new Whaler 345 (photo below), which has no wifi. We might stop at Monomoy for some birding, and maybe hit the rips at Montauk for some fishing if we have time. I'd rather sail, but we need to cover plenty of miles to do what we plan. When you are an employee, they might not pay you too well, but they give you paid vacation days. Why they do that is beyond me, but they do it. (Photo is one of Theo's girlfriends who I would like to meet on the beach, but she would not give me the time of day. "Hey, babe. Nice bathing suit. Are you lonely? Whatcha doin' tonight?"). Where's my tackle box?
Is this Hell? 1,680 guitarists play Smoke on the Water. LGF Which Repubs voted in favor of illegal immigrant felons becoming citizens? Daily Pundit Keep an eye on this guy Gupta. Powerline. He knows how to hire people. Web censorship. The latest fad. All of the cool countries are doing it now.  Younger wives in the White House. Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. I think Frances Cleveland was a great looking lady - maybe not babelicious, but very fine.
God, evolution, and politics. Can you find the ten dumb assertions/statements in this piece in the usually-good New English Review? Better off illegal? Immigrants take heed, and get on board. It's much better to be illegal than legal. Gets it wrong. Edwards claims gun ownership is a privilege. Huh? Given by whom, John? (h/t, Viking). I thought it was all about "endowed by our Creator..." White Lit Prof takes a niggardly look at tar babies. Protein Wisdom. You would have to be a total ignoramus - and a paranoid - to construe such things as racial slurs. He discusses "intentionalism." A fun letter to the editor rant from Brit Barry Beelzebub, who has had it up to here.  Hillary's plastic surgery? I guess she can afford it. From Granny to Soccer Mom. Before and after photos to the left. Can Botox alone do that? And can they get Fred Thompson to get the same treatment? He looks older than he is.
Moslems really do not trust their women. Moderate Voice. Why not? Harry Reid claims that illegals are Americans. Wait just a minute, Harry. When I am in Japan, am I Japanese? Or am I Japanese only if I am in Japan illegally? What happened to passports and all that stuff? Fark's Drew Curtis on news, etc. from an interview at Right Wing News: I think news is kinda like church: we all say we go, but most people don't and it's one of those deals where the...numbers don't bear out (what people say).
Brit nose art defeated by political correctness. Don't want to offend Moslems. Maybe the missiles will contain buttered popcorn and the bombs will be filled with goody bags.
Finns? As one commenter on the story at Free Republic notes, "My question is- why don’t we hire the Iranian border guards? Those suckers don’t miss anybody."
 Will you marry me for an hour or two? It's wedding season, and wedding anniversary season, and Moslem clerics have endorsed the "One-hour marriage." Cool. No alimony, one would hope. (h/t, Vilmar)
Rip Van Winkleski wakes up, finds world changed. Attack Machine Freeman Dyson on video, on warming hysteria, via Classical Values Bush rocks Prague. Quotes from his speech on freedom. Gateway Do not read this book, says the New York Times Hillary talks about "her faith." Tammy Bruce. Meanwhile, Obama catches up with her in polls. Remember the kid who shot that monster pig? It might have been a farm pig. (h/t, Reader) New Hampshire rejects a seat belt law, and No Looking Backwards explains, in no uncertain terms, why that's a good thing. Similar issue re trans-fats, at Cafe Hayek. A quote: None of these things are really worth fighting for, are they? Are you going to picket a politician for making some other folks stop smoking or wear their seat belt? Not worth it. Of course, that's how the nanny state grows. It's just not worth fighting any one infringement of liberty. So no, I'm not going to fight for the right to buy a locally-baked pastry with good mouth feel. But I will fight against the idea that the Montgomery County Council has the right to ban trans-fats. That's why I'm writing this post. That's why I mention it to my neighbors. It requires a bit of schizophrenia. But it's healthy. I don't care about trans-fats, but I care about the ban. I care about the principle. The principle is tricky. It's not the right to eat trans-fats. The principle is that I don't want powerful people to decide what I do with my body or my life. Those are my responsibility. They are my responsibility because that's what adulthood is. Adulthood is being responsible for the risks you take, reaping the rewards and enduring the costs.
