Blunkett, Batman and Voodoo

So within a few days of posting my Blunkett Voodoo Doll, the Home Secretary’s embroiled in big scandal. Coincidence or black magic? You decide… I wonder if we’ll see him storming the House of Lords dressed in his Fathers 4 Justice Batman outfit soon?

Horrific and silly

Two links for you today, the first one upsetting, with the second one to cheer you up (or at least baffle you): Since the media already seems to have forgotten about the pile of rubble formerly known as Fallujah, here’s a site with lots of graphic photos of the aftermath (warning – links to disturbing [...]

David Blunkett Voodoo Doll

As we all know, David Blunkett is a dangerous madman and must be stopped before he turns this country into an Orwellian nightmare. But how do we go about stopping him? Now IANAL, but I guess that there are probably laws against running up to the Home Secretary and felling him with lethal kung fu [...]

And now for something completely different

OK, before I start ranting about the forthcoming attack on Fallujah, maybe we could do with some light-hearted stuff. For starters, I pity the fool who collects Mr T memorabilia. Then, in true Heat fashion, we can always laugh at beautiful, successful people who just don’t think they’re quite beautiful and successful enough. For anyone [...]

Sane Americans

It’s important to remember that not all Americans are Bush-loving rednecks; things like this help: Sorry Everybody. (Memo to self — visit Travis County). Saturday update: Oh dear, seem that site isn’t currently available – presumably as the result of far too many visitors, or some Republican script kiddie. Basically it was a bunch of [...]

D’oh 4 more years of Dubya

Today’s headline on the front of the Mirror did make me smile. For a moment at least. Greg Palast’s written a piece examining the way votes were counted in Ohio and New Mexico. Disturbing though it may be, it does seem a little futile; after getting away with the farce that was 2000′s election, sadly [...]

Stop the Clocks – W H Auden

Tracker‘s just penned his tribute to Bush, based on Stop the Clocks, retitled Hail to the Chief: Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone, Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone, Silence the pianos and with a muffled drum Bring out the President, let the mourners come. Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead [...]

The Power of Nightmares

Seems like a good time to remind people to watch the final part of The Power of Nightmares on BBC2 at 9pm tonight. The first part examined the origins of the Islamic fundamentalists and American neo-conservatives, and the second part looked at how they joined forces in Afghanistan. Tonight’s should be particularly interesting/depressing in the [...]

Brainwashed Fundamentalists 1 Rest of World 0

God, you’ve got to feel sorry for the sane Americans who didn’t vote for the chimp. On the bright side, at least I won’t have to find something else to occupy the Random Bushism space here.

Badger’s back – and this time it’s personal

Yes, World of Badger has finally risen from the dead! A bit like Jesus did really, but sadly without his large fanatical following or the chocolate eggs. Anyway, before I offend anyone else with my tongue-in-cheek similes, I want to say thank you to the people who have continued to visit despite the lack of [...]
