Well, I know I won't be able to get to sleep tonight. It's September 11th Eve, after all.
Every September 11th, Osama Claus sends 19 of his little elves in four magical airplanes to deliver gifts to all the good little boys and girls.
Well, it's happened once. And it was only the one gift, and only to around 3,000 people at the last estimate I saw, but other than that. . .
Nope, barely a one-liner. Used to could get entire entries out of that sort of thing. Sleep deprivation must be getting to me.
Since, thanks to an evil, evil man I am now a pundit (specifically, www.uppitynegropundit.com), I thought I should see how the other half lives.
THE MYSTERY OF SCOTT RITTER Tony Adragna and Jane Galt have both indicated that Scott Ritter's recent statements on Iraq should not be trusted, because Ritter has so dramatically changed his views without a scintilla of evidence or justification for that radical change. The Blogosphere wonders what the cause is for Ritter's reversal of position.Well, here's your chance to offer theories and hypotheses for why Ritter has changed his mind. Leave your Musings below, and let me know your opinion as to why Ritter now so fervently believes that Iraq is not a threat, and why he believes that war with Iraq should not be an option.
Personally, I think that he has been blackmailed. I know that a number of bloggers feel the same way. I can't imagine another reason that would have caused him to change his mind in so dramatic a fashion.
"scintilla"? "The Blogosphere wonders. . ."?
Sorry, sleep deprivation or no, I couldn't write that shit without major cerebral damage or a hell of a lot of drinks. The ones that taste like Slushees, but are like 120 proof. Oddly, I've forgoten the name of the things, along with most of that evening.
What else? Mister Charlie comments on the allegations of sexism in the he-coined-the-term "blogosphere." He refutes this obvious falsehood by, among other things, noting that he links Meryl Yourish. Yes, and the elitist Askenazi cunt viewpoint is so rarely heard. Hell, why didn't he mention he links Laurence Simon if he's using dumb bitches to show. . .
Yep. I should get some sleep.

Who's Scott Ritter?
Not that I care.
According to the brief, free bit at his Salon.com premium profile:
He also addressed the Iraqi parliament a few days back.
Basically, someone saying Wrong Things. There must be some sinister explanation, such as blackmail, because he couldn't possibly just have a different opinion.
Scott Ritter headed the US inspection of Iraq's weapons after the last war. he's a Republican and he thinks we shouldn't go to war, and this has the warmongers and warbloggers all atwitter. here's a guy that should be on their side, if he was a good republican he'd be making stuff up so we could feel good about going and bombing the hell out of iraq, however, he didn't, and so he must be being blackmailed. some of us nefarious peaceniks obviously have something on him, pictures of him doing unspeakable things with democrat hookers or something, right?
well that was good timing. you did more research though, Aaron.
Well, he asked nicely. I respond well to that.
Which reminds me, really should answer Max Power's bitch ass in another thread. . .
Knew I saw his name somewhere else recently. . . Michelle, who is probably going to kill me very soon, mentioned Scott Ritter yesterday.
You are seriously correct when you say I am going to kill you soon. Keep on young man and we are going to have to throw down.
fight! fight! fight!
Will this be vegan jello? Or mud?
"Max Power. Wow, that's a great name"
"yeah, I got it from a hair dryer"
"From now on, there's three ways to do things:
the right way
the wrong way
and the Max Power Way!"
"isn't that just the wrong way?"
"Yes, but faster!"
ahhh...CSC, I got the giggles.
Michelle, you and Aaron can have the celebrity boxing ring after me and Vaughn are through with it.
I heard the event was hot oil wrestling but that's just a rumor started by the "get over it" crowd I think.
I need to check my KMart Catalog to get the real scoop.
Damn! I didn't even THINK of HOT OIL!
The mind boggles.
it shall be settled in a game of nekkid crisco twister.
You are some seriously sick and twisted people.
I like that about you.
don't nobody who eats plain Miracle Whip sammiches on Wonder Bread need to be calling other folks sick and twisted. . .
This is just too much fun.
Seriously.
Stop it.
Excuse me! Country folks in the South don't eat fucking wonderbread. We eat Sunbeam or the $.49 sale stuff from the Bread Store.
Make fun of my grandma's sammiches again and there will be serious hell to pay.
Hell toupee?
Jason, can I get Kane's pyro when I walk to the ring? But Gangrel's music, if possible.
And yes, you better get Fink to do the introductions. Ring flowerpot Lilian Garcia is not cutting it, house show or no.
Sorry Michelle, was thinking of Coffee Table in beautiful Columbus, OH and remembered we had to drive past the Wonder Bread bakery.
Bread starts to congeal onto your car if you sit at a light for too long.
