…but not much else.
They’re reverting to form. And of course, there were two different teams involved. The military ran the one in Pakistan, the White House ran the one in Washington.

Lower-Speed Rail
China’s rail system continues to not be what it’s cracked up to be by Tom Friedman and other Sinophilic fascists.
This Seems Out Of Character
Nancy Pelosi actually called George Bush to thank him for his service, at least with respect to getting bin Laden. I wonder what she saw in that briefing?
An Advantage, Not A Vulnerability
I was at the Reinventing Space conference yesterday, and an AF general gave a speech saying that space is currently an advantage for the nation, strategically, but he fears that it is on the verge of becoming a vulnerability. We have to come up with a new way of doing business.
Anyway, I was thinking about going over today as well, but the Internet was dead when I got up this morning, so I had to hang around here waiting for a Verizon guy to show up. It needed a new modem.
Are We Undermining The “Moderate” Muslims?
As promised earlier, I have more thorough thoughts over at Pajamas Media.
Imagine My Shock

…would we give him a Christian burial? While I’m not a Christian, I would think that Christians would object.
I don’t think it helps the so-called “moderate Muslims” to “follow Islamic traditions” with respect to this monster. He should have been fed to the hogs.

Also, I’ll have a piece up at Pajamas Media on this subject later today.
The Space View From The Left
Over at Kos, “Darksyde” writes about the rocket to nowhere. Ignoring the comments about uteri and urine, I pretty much agree — pork is pork from either side of the aisle. I would point out, though that Constellation and Ares were not proposals by George Bush (though I can understand why he’d want to phrase them that way to his audience, to further demonize them). It was all Mike Griffin, and I’m sure that Bush had zero interest in the subject once he hired Mike.
