Despite the fact that, on the whole, I would prefer to see Barack Obama win the Democratic nomination to the Presidency than Hillary Clinton, I’ve tried on this blog to be reasonably evenhanded towards Hillary, whom I believed would make a decent President, all things considered. Yes, I just made fun of the whole Bosnia […]

(SCENE. Two SNIPERS, BORISAV and CEDOMIL, crouch in the hills overlooking the airport at Tuzla. BORISAV watches the airport through the sights of his enormous sniper rifle.) BORISAV: All right. Are we ready to begin our day of sniping? CEDOMIL: That is certainly why I am here. I came to snipe. BORISAV: All right. Let’s […]

At one point, a long time ago, Dabney Coleman was the king shit. You have to understand that at this time, Dabney Coleman was the definition of irascible authority figure. If you needed a tough bastard who deep down (often very very deep down) had a heart of gold, Dabney Coleman was your first and […]

After discussing the Adbusters case previously mentioned here in class, my constitutional law professor sent me an email elaborating on the subject, and since I thought it was interesting (and since said professor is one of the top constitutional law scholars in Canada), I thought I’d pass along the relevant parts. The relationship between s.2(b) […]

The Barack Obama race speech video on Youtube has over two million hits in less than two days. This, for a video that is, let us not forget, nearly forty minutes long. By way of comparison, remember that “music video” thing? It got to a million hits in five days, and it’s about three minutes […]

I’ve decided that this is now a regular feature here at mgk.com (well, until I get bored with it, but who knows how long that will take). Every week, we will return to the pages of Who’s Who, the classic 1980s DC comic book encyclopedia of their characters. Every week, they shall be judged on […]
