Today is going well. CPK for lunch. Num.

I just sent another note off to Protect.org. They never sent me an invoice for my donation request. I'd like to know why their website won't let people pay lifetime donations directly.

I guess if they don't send me the desired invoice after this time, I'll give them a lesser donation.

Anyone taken a look at mediamatters.org, yet? Apparently it will be addressing right-wing deception in the media. It's run by former Heritage Foundation employee, David Brock, author of "Blinded by the Right" and a new book called "The Republican Noise Machine".

I like it.

I noticed there's a book out called "Rewriting History", which is designed towards maligning Hillary Clinton and her book, "A livng History". Obviously she's a threat to the conservatives.

Now that the dirty truth of how we treat prisoners of war comes out, further fueling the hate of Iraqi insurgents, I'm sure the reports from Iraq are going to get better and better.

Reading about Nick Berg and the video of him getting beheaded on tape really creeps me out. He wasn't even a soldier. He cleaned communication towers for a living. They hate us all, and we're not giving them a reason not to.

I don't see how the Iraqi people are going buy into a liberal democracy in this fashion.
