The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Nikki Under Fire


For John, BLUFDemocrats can be so tactless.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

I just quote Law Professor Ann Athouse in full:

What the South Carolina Democratic Chairman meant when he said "send Nikki Haley back to wherever the hell she came from."

Dick Harpootlian — great name! — says he just meant send her back to Lexington County.  No reference to her ethnicity.  (Her parents immigrated from India, and her religious heritage is Sikh.)

He has to say that, of course, but the "wherever the hell" locution makes the excuse utterly unbelievable.  In a situation like this — where you've got a shred, but only a shred of deniability — is it better to deny or better to apologize?

Speaking of shreds... a Republican would be shredded if he said anything close to that about an opponent's ethnicity.

I guess this is why Democrats deny that "minorities" in Republican Land are really minorities.  That way the Democrats can treat Republican Land as a political Free Fire Zone.

  Well, I did drop the last paragraph as not contributing Anything more.
