The Russian Foreign Ministry said Saturday that a dialogue with Hamas must be started without delay in order to get the Mideast peace process back on track.
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov discussed the issue Friday and Saturday with UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and the European Union's foreign policy chief, Javier Solana, the ministry said.
"The Russian side is convinced that in the interests of guaranteeing prospects for restoring the process of a Palestinian-Israeli settlement on the basis of the 'road map,' it is necessary not to drag out the beginning of talks with Hamas as an influential force in Palestinian society," the ministry said in a statement.

so, did people already see the stuff from CIA-nik Paul Pillar:
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10 — A C.I.A. veteran who oversaw intelligence assessments about the Middle East from 2000 to 2005 on Friday accused the Bush administration of ignoring or distorting the prewar evidence on a broad range of issues related to Iraq in its effort to justify the American invasion of 2003.
The views of Paul R. Pillar, who retired in October as national intelligence officer for the Near East and South Asia, echoed previous criticism from Democrats and from some administration officials, including Richard A. Clarke, the former White House counterterrorism adviser, and Paul H. O'Neill, the former treasury secretary.
But Mr. Pillar is the first high-level C.I.A. insider to speak out by name on the use of prewar intelligence. His article for the March-April issue of Foreign Affairs, which charges the administration with the selective use of intelligence about Iraq's unconventional weapons and the chances of postwar chaos in Iraq, was posted Friday on the journal's Web site after it was reported in The Washington Post. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/

You know the latest Ann Coulter controversy? Well look at this from TownHall:
"Ann Coulter just spoke at CPAC. The room was literally packed...not everyone could get in.
She was certainly witty and funny. Nobody delivers better one liners. But in classic Coulter fashion, she finds a way to cross the line.
She stirred some controversy with this comment, "Our motto should be, raghead talks tough, raghead faces thunderous consequences."
After her speech, a young Muslim conservative took her to task. He thanked her for coming to speak and then told her that he had a very hard time recruiting fellow Muslims to the conservative cause when people like her inflamed the situation with comments like that.
He received applause from a significant portion of the audience.
Coulter shot back, acknowledging that at times she makes jokes at Muslims' expense but that they killed 3,000 Americans on September 11, "So I think that makes us even.""
What a bitch. Read the comments is you want to get depressed.

That emptiness at the core of the cretins seems to me to be the ultimate inability to value anything but profits. Selling the country, the constitution, ethics, nothing impresses the cabal - only profits. Listened this a.m. to some one yodelling about the profits he'd made investing in Halliburton. No concept of the fact that war profiteering, selling shoddy goods and overchargine the public for them, that's okay if it generates profits. That's total emptiness.

from the end of MODO today:
In the new Foreign Affairs, Paul Pillar, who was a senior C.I.A. official overseeing Middle East intelligence assessments until October, says the obvious conclusion that should have been drawn from the intelligence on Iraq was that war was unnecessary. He says the White House "went to war without requesting — and evidently without being influenced by — any strategic-level intelligence assessments on any aspect of Iraq."
He calls the relationship between the intelligence community and the policy makers — you guessed it — politicized, damaged by bureaucratic rivalries and dysfunctional.
A final absurd junction of dysfunction was reached on Wednesday, when Republican Party leaders awarded Tom DeLay with a seat on the Appropriations subcommittee overseeing the Justice Department, which is investigating Jack Abramoff, including his connections to Tom DeLay.

My opinion: People in this country are insecure and unhappy, and the GOP has found a few convenient scapegoats for them to blame it on. So there's a big (though shrinking) part of the country that thinks things'll be OK once they "get" the people who are bringing them down.
It's to the point where the only way a lot of these people can judge whether or not something is good anymore is by whether it makes liberals angry. If it pisses us off, it means Bush is doing a good job. Cutting off your nose to spite your face, I think they call it.

At our office we had some wonderful entertainment one summer: The Parking Lot Affair. Every Monday through Thursday evening an older guy would drive up and park in the back of the lot, which was visible from my office on the 3rd floor. About 10 minutes later, a lovely young lady would park next to him and get into his car. Once my friend Adam and I deliberately drove by, and all we saw was the dude (in a business suit) holding onto the steering wheel. The lady was nowhere in sight. Ahem.

Yes, it is. What makes you think your tastes are better than his? Not all men have ugly furniture, science fiction books, etc. Expand your mind, and you might find someone.

Umm, yeah. Good luck, unless you marry another lawyer, maybe one who works for the mob or something.
I'm going to sit here and fantasize about an extra room for a minute. Talk amongst yourselves...

My loathing of Dubya is what gives that distinctive smoky flavoring to the bacon of my patriotism.

In the meantime, I just finished watching Corpse Bride, and thought it an nicely sweet film.
I loved it. Tough call between that and Wallace & Gromit for the Oscar...

Just looked on eBay at a Jesus Pancake, and it looked like Peter Lorre as Rasputin.

I actually had a house with three bedrooms. Unfortunately, I moved out of it to get married. Our current place is mostly books, with some pathways winding through them. Can't move, though, 'til Mrs. P decides where she wants to work on doctoral stuff...

Of course most of my plotting nowadays involves hiding from the children long enough to spend two minutes alone with my wife, and said time-window is usually slammed shut pronto by an interruption along the lines of a phone call or a child falling off the coffee table and screaming.

Ah yes. Quick, drive the kids to theatre class, drive home, quickie, dress, pick kids up. Oy, and people ask my if I miss em. Nope.

While watching the parade of nations last night we were flipping back and forth and caught a few minutes of John Stossel. According to Mr. Stossel, sharing is bad. Also according to Mr. Stossel, sprawl is not a problem since 95% of the land in this country remains undeveloped.

Watched that last night and liked it a lot. All his stuff is such vegetarian propaganda, too. I'm surprised it hasn't excited profound debate at The Corner.

Now look, it seems obvious that the Jesus Pancake flap is essentially about Freedom of Speech.
For backwards and primitive peoples to tear off and release buckets of flies into the syrup works, and hijack butter trucks with blowtorches is... why, it's simply proof of their backwardness and primitivity!
The Jesus Pancake is a fitting symbol of the Sacred Principle of Free Speech; indeed, one might define Free Speech as the right to share a Jesus Pancake with the world.
But please, no Muhammed Waffles.

logistically easier when in a hotel right by the facility (location of which I don't even know yet).
Wull, you let me know eh? Like, I'm in North-Central Phoenix so unless you're in someplace like Chandler or Apache Junction or Goodyear....

Hello, ladies and heathens:
Assclowns of the Week: Cabbages and Kings Edition is now up. And this is a special, expanded edition that’s the most massive ACOTW in all of recorded human history (alright, we’re talking only since last July)! Because I take aim at not the usual ten, or even twelve, but fifteen of this week’s most prominent assclowns.
On the spit this week:
15) Fema, for “trailing” in their relief efforts.
14) Ken Mehlman, for picking on one of the most Republican Democrats as a symbol for liberal rage.
13) John McCain, for imparting the true message of bipartisanship.
12) USDA, for horsing around with a popular congressional bill.
11) Karl Rove, for threatening to cut the pursestrings off neocons who may actually be stupid enough to hold Bush accountable for spying on US citizens.
10) Ken Ham, for telling five year-olds, Hey, it’s OK to question scientific authorities.
9) George Deutsch, for blaming them damned lib’rals for exposing him as an academic fraud. Democratic strategist Pat Caddell, for telling Alan Colmes why the Democrats shouldn’t take back control of Congress.
7) Kate O’Beirn and Chris Matthews, for putting them darkies in their places.
6) The House GOP and Tom DeLay, for playing musical chairs.
5) Alberto Gonzales, for lying his ass off to the Senate.
4) George Bush, just on general principle.
3) The Bush Administration, for being outed for their outing of Plame by their version of John Dean.
2) Michael Brown, for reminding us why cronyism doesn’t work when lives are at stake. And
1) Ann Coulter, for her searingly brilliant standup routine at a neocon clam bake.
All this and much, much… well, actually, that’s it.
