- I’ve noticed that Memeorandum thinks we have a heartbeat again. I’m not at all sure what caused them to hang up on us, but I’m glad we’re back on speaking terms, whatever the reason. I just wish we had a clearer picture of what drives their actions there.
- That plugin issue I found earlier was really three things; Two plugs fighting with each other… and even there it’d have been OK if I hadn’t altered the PHP a year ago to solve a few display problems. Ah, well, it’s a learning thing. By the way, I’m still fooling with new designs. Haven’t found one I like better than what we have, yet. I’d like one that’s Widget ready, if nothing else.
- Jawa has a transcript [2] of the Fred Thompson presser/blogger the other day. I’ve been busy with design issues and building a server so I didn’t see it.
- Glenn [3] makes note of a movement in Nevada which calls for people to become Democrats for a day [4]just to vote against Hillary Clinton. My attitude? Why the hell not? Wasn’t Kos trying to pull the same nonsense [5] going the other way in Michigan? And what do you folks figure Ron Paul’s candidacy is all about, if not fouling the Republican primary process?
- In response to some back and forth over the tax rates vs Economy post; [6] Look, the bottom line is he’s been arguing against Supply Side Economics for years, now, and not very convincingly. He questions he’s asking now can only be made if… if…. you make the assumption that Supply side doesn’t work, and that tax hikes don’t damage economic growth. As I said over there, “I think it fair to say that tax hikes invariably damage the economy to at least some small amount”.
