A long time ago, I said Steven denBeste’s secret identity was Condolezza Rice. Well, he’s he’s finally ‘fessed up, and I was wrong. Close, but wrong. He’s actually Karl Rove. (20060705.1945)
UPDATE: And I guess I should probably confess that I’m also “Wonderduck” and “Shamus Young“. (Yeah, right, like anyone is really named “Shamus”. You people will believe anything, you know that?)
I notice he didn’t claim to be me. Which is only right and proper; he can’t be me, because I’m Napoleon. This time, I should have no problem conquering those damned British.
Update: More on that last link.
However, George has become unfashionable among politicians and bureaucrats. His saint’s day, April 23, has no official celebration in England, and councils have banned the St George flag from their buildings and vehicles during the World Cup.
And now we see the real reason for this.
The saint became an English hero during the crusades against the Muslim armies that captured Jerusalem in the 11th century.
Note to the CofE: Eccumemialism is a good thing, but not when the other religion’s fanatics want to kill you so they can reestablish the very governments that the Crusades were fought against.
