Why I hate this No Executive Experience argument
It keeps shifting. In its first incarnation as used against Obama and Biden it was about how legislative experience is worthless and all they do is make long-winded speeches. Now that they've realized this could easily be applied to McCain's legislative experience it has shifted to include only military, local or state government, or business ( Read more... ) -

"Let me be clear: there is no military solution in Iraq, and there never was. The best way to protect our security and to pressure Iraq's leaders to resolve their civil war is to immediately begin to remove our combat troops. Not in six months or one year - now . . . .

So I accepted a job offer to work for HUD Office of General Counsel in DC after law school. I feel much less stressed now that I know I will have a salary when student loans start becoming due. Plus, I think the job will be sweet; I will get to enforce the Fair Housing Act and stuff like that. -

It is pretty dry so far in terms of the actual work, but that may be because I am not yet considered competent enough to do anything ( Read more... ) -
Choose your Ringtone
So I got a new phone that has bluetooth and all that fancy jazz so I've been having fun cutting down mp3's to make ringtones and putting pictures with peoples numbers. So far I've got a lot of daft punk (da funk, robot rock, crescendolls) and empire from kasabian, and the theme from the orgy scene in conan the barbarian. If you think any of the ( Read more... ) -
Traffic Ticket
So I got a ticket today for going 40 in a 25. The ticket should be 119 but the police officer did not write down the mph or the cost. Also, if I contested it, it would probably be my friend Matt from law school interning at the Norman DA who would prosecute it ( Read more... )
