Because it cannot be repeated enough. This is from the Red Cross report from the NY Books review (which has been linked to all over the blogosphere. Here is an excerpt;

After the beating I was then placed in the small box. They placed a cloth or cover over the box to cut out all light and restrict my air supply. As it was not high enough even to sit upright, I had to crouch down. It was very difficult because of my wounds. The stress on my legs held in this position meant my wounds both in the leg and stomach became very painful. I think this occurred about 3 months after my last operation. It was always cold in the room, but when the cover was placed over the box it made it hot and sweaty inside. The wound on my leg began to open and started to bleed. I don't know how long I remained in the small box, I think I may have slept or maybe fainted.

John Edwards visited San Jose, CA yesterday evening. He was at San Jose State University for a public speech ($15). I sent him my contribution and then showed up for the speech. I arrived by 5 and Edwards showed up by 5:30. He talked until 6, shook hands until 6:30 and then was gone.

(More scattered thoughts and observations over the bump...)

Apropro nothing in particular, but I was checking out various blogs, as we are all wont to do, and on Salon, I came across a reference to a rightwing blogger who had spent 40 minutes in bush's company. Now, since I haven't yet found a rightwing blogger who wasn't an ultra rightwing hack who had drunk the koolaid, I was expecting him to be in awe of his "great leader." But, even prepared like that, I was awestruck by what I found. I hate to link to the guy because he is clearly deranged and obviously any extra views will just encourage him. But, still, it is really beyond expectations what his blog on his visit spewed.

Having not seen these here, I'd thought that it'd be fun to show some of the winning entries. The photos get a bit more interesting when we see Hunter's great rip on the rightwing lies. After being intrigued by what the scum Powerline blog calls pro-terrorist photos, I went in search of said photos. Of course, I didn't want to just the one that raised their ire, I wanted to see them all. I'm glad that I did. They exist Here.

Below the fold, I've posted some of my favorite winners. (And, frankly, it's very hard to pick favorites. There are so many good choices.) Read More
