I’m a sci-fi junkie, and I loved the original Battlestar Galactica (I was single digits then). I’m really enjoying the new series. The creator has a blog and he’s just posted about the “torture episode.” It’s worth a read. via Eschaton.

Yet another, “I hope this isn’t true” moment
From the Gadflyer are revelations that the Saudis may be working rather stridently, and perhaps illegally, to help get Bush re-elected in November. The same news source – The Gadflyer – has a different take on the same interview. I’m not sure the second interpretation is as strong, especially in light of the first posting. I haven’t seen the interview yet, but I expect it to mirror closely what we are beginning to hear in the 9/11 commission hearings – consistent with view 2, but with great nuggets that article 1 gives us.
The Party of Yesterday
I was watching a West Wing Marathon and it was funny to see the issues they were dealing with in the series four years ago, and what’s being leveled against Obama. Bartlett is accused of being a socialist for wanting more kids to go to school. Racists are coming out in full-force because the president’s body man is black. Cold War is over, we won, but we are still worried about socialists. Hilarious. Then I read this Op-Ed. Nice way to keep looking back. Election 2008

Just joining the hype. Looks like a good show. Can’t wait for the DVD, since I doubt we’ll get it south of the border. Technorati Tags: LittleMosqueOnThePrairie, TV
