Manic-depressive posts from Red Wright-Hand. Because there are thousands of worthless blogs out there and who am I not to add to their number?

W., meet K: When the summer began, I did a little math and calculated that US military fatalities in Iraq would surpass 1,000 before the season's end. In an uncharacteristic display of tastefulness, I declined to post this prediction on the blog. What a wimp. No such lack of intestinal fortitude from our Vice President, who reminded us yesterday of what the November election is all about: VOTE REPUBLICAN OR DIE.

And speaking of W., why is it that this video of the man, taken at a wedding reception on August 29, 1992, six years after he "quit drinking," (*cough*) has not been widely disseminated? (NOTE: QuickTime is required.) Make sure you watch to the very end when he empties his glass. Only in Amurrrka. Thanks to The Smoking Gun.
