It’s always nice to see kitty posts, especially when such kitty post belongs to the InstaGod of the blogosphere. Thanks Sisu for ferreting out this adorable feline. Go there to see Glenn’s cat.

Always better with a cat in it. Psycho Cat would approve considering she has added four more cats to this household.

There is a good part to those idiots hiding tail and running away - namely this from Donald Sensing.

It lessens the chance that the United Nations will gain operational control over the democratization of Iraq or other inimical places (cough, Iran, cough). Remember, the UN has no troops of its own, and the willingness of small countries to provide combat forces to enforce the UN’s will (assuming the UN ever actually finds a will to enforce) is not realistically to be expected.

He points out how the U.N. needs U.S. troops to do it’s dirty work but we don’t need them. For containing Iran, which is now surrounded in case anyone forgets, I suggest a small but effective coalition - the U.S., Israel and, if willing, Britian. Don’t need anyone else especially those idiots in the U.N..

Hat tip to Jay who has all kinds of good thoughts on that and other subjects.

It has an agenda. And it is monitoring churches to make sure they don’t support the opposing agenda. Quoting from WND:

While the group maintains it is non-partisan and objects across the board to all kinds of politicking in the pews, the organization’s website shows the Mainstream Coalition has a strong political agenda of its own. Policy statements posted include the following:

• strong support of Roe v. Wade
• strong support of late-term abortions
• strong support of sex education
• strong support of human cloning
• strong support of hate-crime laws
• strong support of gun control
• strong support for teaching of evolution
• strong opposition to prayer in schools
• strong opposition even to the wearing of religious symbols on government property

Some might question just how mainstream those positions are. Would such a group, for instance, object to the use of churches to promote politicians who support such an agenda?

It just doesn’t seem right that an organization (actually more than one) is monitoring what is said from the pulpit and reporting said church if it doesn’t like what it hears. Actually, the thought of being monitored is rather scary considering. I can see this being expanded too. The possibilities…

Mind you under federal guidelines churches can discuss issues and even compile voters’ guides, but when an issue is closely tied to one candidate, it becomes a bit stickier. Supporting the same position on an issue as a candidate will be construed as supporting said candidate by those opposed. Then it gets into the whole sticky business of morality and religious beliefs being construed as political issues. Imagine some people would like to shut up the churches entirely on those issues. Deserves watching.

So I couldn’t decide what I wanted to do today and just slept. Sleep is good. I did, in those brief moments when I was actually awake, read some stuff. And since I’m being such a lump, check out Vinny’s change of mind here. Food for thought, which is more important to fight for/destroy marriage or the Constitution.

Jay has a wealth of posts, he really went to town here blogging up a storm. Just one, hard to pick just one but I will, this one cause it deals with WordPress. I have seen the example of which he writes. Not sure if it’s the best example to show off WP blogs. My blogroll has better.

Jim Snoozey describes his house in the most interesting way.

Always Victoria has a guest blogger who brought a little S&M action. And whipped cream, yum.

Lair clarifies a story I almost blogged. Didn’t as the Reuters feed was similar to Al Jazeera’s in having the IDF shoot off the rocket at the poor Paleswineans. Makes one wonder about Reuters’ ethical standards in practice.

The Flying Space Monkeys, a name sure to please Frank J., has the latest Star wars info.

Accidental Verbosity ponders what if we had a .cat domain to play around with. It’s been done while Rob was on vacation. He didn’t exactly appreciate it either.

Sharp as a Marble has the scoop on fonts, yes fonts.

Sisu takes on the 9/11 Commission not once but twice.

Thinkish has a post that has me thinking…

of Sephy’s rock hard body… in speedos. Yes, it is very hot here. Think it’s time for me to go back to sleep.
