Yep, it’s time for another of Leah’s perceived fascists. I’m a smoker. I’m not entirely proud of it but I’m not incredibly ashamed either. Please don’t barage me with comments about how bad it is for me. I’m not stupid; I do know. Anyway, the great country of Britain is now debating whether or not [...]

Death penalty
Oh, doesn’t that title just strike fear into your heart?! What is her view? Does she support it or object to it? I’m not going to go into a whole long argument either way on it. All I wish to do is present you with this interesting commentary from John Brummett, an op-ed columnist for [...]
Rudy, retracted
I hereby retract all previous post comments regarding liking Rudy Giuliani pending further investigation via a Vanity Fair article as suggested by my wonderfully intelligent and insightful mother. (see her comment on previous post) I will advise further of my opinion once research has been carried out. I still think if he gets the Republican [...]
Rudy
It’s just occurred to me. I just wonder, seriously, if Rudy Giuliani would be as popular or well-known outside of New York and, hence, running for the Republican Presidential nomination if 9/11 had never happened. I like Giuliani, even if he is a Republican. Most importantly he supports abortion rights for women (though he has [...]

Now that I have this blog, once the campaigns really take off, I intend to blog for my chosen candidate. Considering many of my readers are [...]
One of these days, she’ll be gone..
Well, it’s just a bumper day for things that annoy me. I would not usually degrade myself to actually post anything to do with Paris Hilton or any other celebrity unless utterly necessary. I like to think this is a semi-intelligent, if not at least trying to be intellectual, blog. Unfortunately, on this particular celebrity story, I felt I [...]
Veggie-fascism
I have known several vegetarians in my life. I’m related to one and have another as a good friend here in London. My cousin is veggie simply because she just never really liked the taste of meat whereas my friend is veggie for the whole animal cruelty/moral reasons. My friend has more reason to say [...]
Give me a strawberry any day
If you want a bit of a laugh or just want to make slightly weird faces at your computer go to the new BlackBerry website. There you’ll find ‘testimonials’ from BlackBerry users about how it’s changed their lives. Give me a break! The best one was from Kevin Carroll who claimed his BlackBerry has made [...]
“The world is safer today than it was [six] years ago”…not
Oh how the mighty have fallen. Bush’s own State Department has produced a report showing that the war in Iraq has actually made the world less, rather than more, safe.
