Unless otherwise noted, we picked all highlights. And Rebecca wanted us to try the following illustration.

"I Hate The War" -- Most requested highlight by readers of this site. C.I. explaining that begging people who work for you to do their jobs doesn't result in much.



"Isaiah's The World Today Just Nuts "Hard Work" -- Isaiah's latest comic (another one should go up today at some point).



"The Feather and Father Game," "It's a Different World than where you come from." "heroes jumps the shark!," "Paper Dolls," "The Mod Squad," "227," "Medium," "Is it a library in a police state?" and "Debra Sweet, Chuck" -- Tuesday night's theme posts theme was a show you weren't ready to go off . . . unless you covered one of the NBC Monday night shows. Rebecca always does Heroes and Mike always does Chuck. That left Medium up for grabs and Stan grabbed it. There is a wide variety of TV in the above.







"Rice with Salsa and Vegetables in the Kitchen" -- Trina offer a recipe and a look at the economy.



"Diary entry (brief)" and "Diary entry" -- Betty's parents were visiting last week. That was her 'excuse' for diary entries Thursday and Friday night. There's no excuse needed. We enjoyed the posts.





"hillary for the supreme court!" -- the more we reflect on Rebecca's post, the more we agree with it. Were there more time, we'd probably even argue for this being an editorial.





"do-me feminists silent on abeer - no surprise" and "Why there are so few women columnists" -- Rebecca and Ruth offer some important thoughts.





"Filthy Matthew Rothschild" -- Kat calls out Matty Roth.



"Senate Armed Services Committee hearing" -- Kat covers a Senate hearing.



"Iraq snapshot," "Abeer Qassim Hamza al-Janabi," "Iraq snapshot," ""The silence on Abeer," "Iraq snapshot," "Green bragged about the War Crimes twice to Yribe," "Iraq snapshot," "The War Crimes trial continues" and "Iraq snapshot" -- As Kat points out, C.I. covered four hearings last week. That's actual reporting. Going to the hearings, writing them up. But we're emphasizing the entries C.I. did which addressed Abeer. On that topic, you should also see Evan Bright's site.





""Barack finds someone to play with"" & THIS JUST IN! HE RELATES!" -- in light of the week before last's efforts by Barack to play jock-boi, this was especially funny.



"Oil" and "Explaining the meaning of the Iraq War" -- Stan didn't do a movie post because he felt these two were bookend posts.





"The fawning press" -- Elaine on the daily embarrassment which passes for the press corps.





"The kiss off and the pay off" and "THIS JUST IN! THE KISS OFF AND THE PAY OFF!" -- Cedric and Wally tackle who got bought off and who got told to kiss it.
