Pete Holiday has done a great job with the 103rd Carnival of the Vanities. My entry — Life in the Subjunctive Lane — was a tad late and he still managed to sneak it in, so I am grateful.
Here are some highlights:
La Shawn Barber is angry that the world slumbered while Islamofascist vermin slaughtered child hostages — with the press deliberately downplaying the entire sickening matter. I agree, and I am sorry to see the U.S. State Department now speaking in terms of “political solutions.”
Then there’s Interested Participant on child suicide bombers:
…everyone has to recognize that strapping a child with explosives and sending him into a restaurant in Tel Aviv is not much different than sending a suicide kid into the Mall of America. Personally, I don’t think it’s possible to have too much dialogue on child suicide bombers. I also don’t think that the United States can prevent a child suicide attack forever.
I don’t either — short of taking children away from parents who sympathize with such evil.
PC Watch shows how today’s unpardonable heresy can be tomorrow’s wisdom.
Idler Yet has more about the “timing” of the capture of bin Laden — speculating about the best time to capture him. (Of course, a successful capture will be said to be political, while continued failure will cause the same people to excoriate Bush for that too. Either way: Bush bad, Kerry good!)
And Pete himself has posted an interesting mathematical formula which some would call an endorsement of lesbianism, others would label “heterosexist” — and which still more would consider just plain “sexist.” It wouldn’t be fair or balanced of me to comment at all.
Read ’em all!
