The ‘indifferent’ side of racism

Imagine playing soccer, sunbathing and generally having a good time on the beach while two dead bodies lie covered only metres away.

Can’t do it?

Well, these folks could.

McCain Campaign: New York Times Blocked Op-Ed Response to Obama

The New York Times on Friday blocked an opinion piece submitted by John McCain to the newspaper shortly after it printed a piece by his Democratic rival, Barack Obama, McCain campaign officials confirmed to FOX News on Monday.

Obama’s piece detailed his plans for Iraq and Afghanistan. While McCain’s proposed piece also discussed Iraq, The Times told McCain’s advisers that it would not accept the op-ed in its current form because it did not offer new information. Obama’s speech previewed a series of speeches leading up to a highly publicized trip to war zones in the Middle East.

Fox News

This is absolutely unbelievable. Josef Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili, couldn’t have accomplished this any better.

Benjamin Zander on Classical Music: Play with One Buttock!

This comes via Debby, Jonah Goldberg’s “Odd Link Gal” at The Corner over at NRO.

Banjamin Zander is a famous conductor of Beethoven and Mahler, among many others, and in this highly informative, entertaining, and touching lecture he says everything I always wanted to say about classical music a hundred times better than I could ever say it. The video is 20:43 in length, so make sure you have the time to watch, because it is positively riveting.

You’ll laugh, you may even cry, and you’ll probably say, “Yes, that’s right!” several times like I did.

What a wonderful and beautiful human being Maestro Zander is.

Yeah, well…

Americans complained Bush didn’t know shit about the rest of the world.

Obama doesn’t know shit about America.

With thanks to Tim Blair.

Urban jungle more vibrant now

From brick wall to this.

A boring subway exit to this.

And then, this.

Bagging graffiti is wasting an opportunity.

The graffiti in Pompeii is priceless, nowadays.

This is so cool

Whilst the Green Left wants the West to pull up the reigns on progress with such daft ideas as Kevin Rudd’s Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS), some people are having other ideas.

Fly us to the moon and let us play among the stars…

And about time, too.
