Books. Bikes. Boomsticks.
Party politics today is a race to the boxcars; first team there gets to make the other team ride.

That sound you hear is a gauntlet hitting the ground.

From Unix Jedi comes news of this challenge:

You have a standing offer from me: Just sue me here in Houston for defamation. After all, I've republished most of the SwiftVets' claims here on my blog, and I've made many of them again in my own voice. I use a pseudonym for my blog name, but it's not anonymous — my name and address are linked on every page of this blog, and have been since the day it started. I'll waive any statute of limitations defense. I'll waive service of process. Hell, I'll meet you at the federal courthouse doors for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (you have diversity jurisdiction), and I'll even pay your filing fee!

...and it just gets better from there.

Not that anything will come of it, but it was fun to read.

The only thing he could offer more is to pay for Kerry's parking. Parking at the Houston federal building stinks!
