There's a Memeorandum thread on this one, so I thought I'd share over here.
See, "Rachel Maddow Reports From Kandahar; or, Just When You Thought DOD Got Beat Up on Rolling Stone and McChrystal..."
Folks are getting a kick out of Maddow's hijab.
Also at Blazing Cat Fur, Doug Ross, Moonbattery, Weasel Zippers, and WyBlog.
Should I see it?
It is a remake of The Crazies. What do you think?

Tales of heroism and bravery brought back the past at an RAF base today as Lancaster bomber veterans were reunited with the aircraft for what will probably be the last time. The eight veterans, who would have made up a full crew on the bomber, met at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire thanks to the RAF Association.

Tea parties across the US are starting to learn the realities of political life after the primaries. In this grassroots conundrum they have to suffer the sight of their tea party favorites appearing with many of the politicians that they set out to cull. Now that these candidates have gotten the nomination they become part of the party “establishment” and business as usual returns.

2,053 nuclear detonations from first one to 1998. No kidding! I did not know there were that many...
And the "media" is wetting it's collective depends at the mere 'idea' of using a small nuke to stop the Deep Horizon oil spill in the Gulf...lke we've never had a nuclear explosion before....or several thousand of them...which did not exactly cause the end of the world as we know it, did it?
Build it, and they will use it.

Operation Thunderbolt, the raid on Entebbe was a hostage-rescue mission carried out by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) at Entebbe Airport in Uganda on July 4, 1976. A week earlier, on June 27, an Air France plane with 300 passengers was hijacked by Arab and German terrorists and flown to Entebbe, near Kampala, the capital of Uganda. Shortly after landing, all non-Jewish passengers were released.
Several movies were made about the mission

It is not just 'budgets' that are getting cut.
The "smart" money...at least the "serious" money is cutting their exposure/risk to the economy.
Barton Biggs, the guy who runs Traxis Partners, a $1.4 billion fund sold HALF his stock investments last week. Half.
- He is worried about a further 'dip' in the economy and wants to cut his exposure and risk at this time.
- He...and many others...are busy raising CASH and not putting any money into anything.
This can also be seen as a perfectly rational response to today's prevailing Marxist-collectivist agenda. Private property and wealth is NOT safe from Communists!
- Redistribute your own money, before they do it for you!
