Some Brief Commentary

[l33tminion]

A few things to share:

First of all, September is National Preparedness Month. Go and read nemo_wistar's commentary on this one, he hits the nail on the head.

Second, the Utah school board has unanimously rejected the teaching of Intelligent Design. No comment on this one.

Third, Geraldo Rivera and Shepard Smith report on the evacuation efforts in New Orleans. When even Fox can't put a positive spin on the administration's actions, you know things are bad...

Fourth, Bush has given a new reason for the Iraq war, namely protecting Iraqi oil. Lets go through the reasons for this war again:
WMD's
9/11
Not oil
Iraqi democracy
Iraqi safety
Definitely not oil
Getting rid of terrorists
Keeping the terrorists "over there"
(Oh, wait, look at the gas prices!)
Oil

What scares me about this one is this thought: What if the Bush administration fails as badly at this "reason" as they have at all their others.

Finally, this essay on Peak Oil and the working class. Radical, but very interesting.
