SWATting and the letter to Holder

Eric Erickson at Redstate has put up some more information about the SWATting that happened to him. Luckily no one was injured and the police realized they had been sent on a wild goose chase. He's not the first one to have it happen to him.

Contained in the post is a letter written by Rep Saxby Chambliss and signed by 80 members of congress, sent to Eric Holder to try to get him to do his job. Of course after today's news he might not be very receptive to anything anyone with an (R) after their name requests.

Michelle Malkin talks about it here. And Allergic to Bull writer Aaron Walker has multiple detailed posts about how his life has been affected on multiple fronts at his site. Just visit it, will ya.

Notice at the top there is a link to donate to the defense fund of everyone that has been targeted by a convicted bomber and terrorist, Brett Kimberlin, that shouldn't even be free. So if you feel inclined give the people that are truly fighting for first amendment rights some help.

Welcome Back to the Handbook

So I went away for a little while. To the three of you that read this, well thanks for sticking around. I came back and had just one thought. This country has lost its collective frickin mind.

I see Mittens basically has the nomination wrapped up. Great! Of all the people running this is the guy we choose? Wow we are dumb. Let's just hope he doesn't screw it up.

Of course he couldn't have an easier opponent to defeat. Well at least it's an easy opponent with people who have actually been paying attention. The rest of em well, lets just hope most of them stay home in Nov.

 I also see that Bambi is missing the civility of the '08 election. Moe Lane at Redstate pretty much summed that one up nicely so just read his and tell me you don't agree.

Lets see Patterico has been SWATTED by a convicted bomber. Eric Erickson,  Aaron Walker and others have had the same done to them. Luckily for Eric he had notified his local police that something like this might happen. Aaron has been fired from his job and forced to move. Nope nothing wrong with that. Exactly what you would think would happen to someone who was exercising their first amendment right in the USSR. Wait, what was that? You said we're in the USA? Oh well then I'm sure the ACLU is rushing to his defense right? Oh still no? Hmm...
Not surprisingly Fox News is the only one that I can find picking up the story.

In other news the DOJ still doesn't like you.

We still have no jobs in this country. I'm sure that statement surprises all of you. But no really it's true. Our ability to create jobs sucks. At least that's what the Jobs Report keeps saying.

One last thing. Obama isn't even above 50% against Romney in CA. Obama is going to win CA, no one doubts that. But he Romney can keep it close and make him spend money there who know what can happen in states that can be flipped like FL, VA, OH, and maybe PA.

Once again sorry I was gone for so long. My goal is to at least put something up a little more frequent that every 3 months.
