So he and a business partner have created HotEnough.org, a sort of online version of Studio 54, the exclusive '70s disco where gaining admission was a pitiless Darwinian exercise. HotEnough.org is for "fit, good-looking" people. Prospective members must submit pictures and must be rated an 8 or higher by people already in the club. Once they're in, they are permitted to e-mail other "hotties" for $9.95 a month. "It's definitely hard to get through that...

Difficult enough to believe that BNP Paribas, Saddam’s favourite bank, would be the major sponsor of world tennis, including the French Open at Roland Garros in Paris. BNP, which backed a regime that tortured athletes, is now the proud partner of the International Tennis Federation (ITF). Saddam’s psychopathic son, Uday, in charge of Olympic sporting in Iraq, had an obsession with tennis. But that BNP Paribas would sponsor the prestigious Davis Cup match in South Carolina is something that must cause the souls of all the athletes that died under Saddam & Son to turn in their graves. To sponsor...

Match.com's view on Pat Buchanan:'This famously conservative political commentator married Nixon's secretary Shelley Ann Scarney in 1971, and we can only assume she's been doing the dishes for him ever since. In his 1990 memoir Right From The Beginning, Pat made it clear that he's not the least bit open to the idea of equal, loving partnerships, saying, "The real liberators of American women were not the feminist noise-makers, they were the automobile, the supermarket, the shopping center, the dishwasher, the washer-dryer, the freezer." Clearly, he likes the little ladies at home with an apron and a bottle of Mr....

Therefore, this week we list the ten points stipulated by CPUSA(1) and match them up with text taken directly from the Kerry-Edwards (K-E) agenda.(2) Slight editing was used in the K-E sections, but only enough to make the text a little more readable. ------------------------------------------------- CPUSA: Bush is destroying workers rights and outsourcing jobs instead of protecting the right to organize and creating new jobs rebuilding schools, bridges, roads and hospitals.
