My main blog is tdaxp.
I have two side blogs that may or may not become important -- Junk Politics, a tdaxp blog and Cobuyitaphobia, a tdaxp blog.
The latter is not to be confused with tdaxp / cobuyitaphobia, a section of my main blog.
Additionally, using bloglines I have bloglines, a tdaxp blog. And using flickr I have Flickr: Photos from tdaxp.Current Mood:  happy Current Music: Arcade Fire - Neighborhood #4 (Kettles) |

News today was focused on Asia and Law.
South Korean Repression
Categories: Greater East Asia
The ultimate story of the day, and appropriately about law in Asia. South Korea informally banned a North Korean execution video. Protecting the image of Pyongyang is more important to Seoul than its subjects' citizens' freedom. Fine, it's their country. But then we should not defend it.
Michigan To Roll Back Homosexualist Tyranny
Categories: Homosexuality, Law
Wonderful news out of Michigan. The bifurcated state may stop forcing doctors to treat homosexualists.
India on Pakistan's Toy Planes
Categories: Greater East Asia, South Asia
This story astounded me. Was the sale of jets to F-16 part of a sall of F-18s to India? Apparently!
Right Bolsheviks and Terri Schiavo
Categories: Law, Republicans
Some on the right continue slumping towards the abyss. Shudders.
India: Best Ally, Ever
Categories: Greater East Asia, South Asia
The aforementioned jets we're selling to India? America has never sold them to anyone -- not Britain, not Israel, not Australia, not anyone. India is becoming a key pillar of world security. Bush is a genius great power strategist.
American Warship Enters Vietnamese Waters
Categories: Greater East Asia
The third visit of an American warship to Vietnam since normalization arouses speculation of military bases. Vietnam is a natural friend of America.Current Mood:  sleepy Current Music: Pedro the Lion - Nothing |

Abortion and Global Roadsterism
Categories: Abortion, Law, Republicans
Why the Supreme Court is Conservative when it cites International Law, and how abortion will be banned in the United States.
People Power Coming to Zimbabwe
Categories: Africa
Another nation, another election, another peaceful revolution? And another great African bishop.
MyDD and the Democrat Implosion
Categories: Democrats
The American Tory Democrat Party continues its nose-dive into oblivion. At least lefty bloggers are chronicling this for history.
Scam Takes Down Blogs on Google
Categories: Blogosphere
Two good blogs removed from Google's search engine for hosting advertisements. Which company is crooked?
Bush Against Bantustanism
Categories: Public Finances, South Dakota
Hundreds of million in Indian funding slashed. Yet another reason I am a Republican
No to Balkanized Republics
Categories: Blogosphere, Iraq
South Dakota Politics believes that Iraqi-style ethnic diversity is a good thing. It is, as long as by "good" you mean "so terrible it will destroy the country."
Elian Gonzales and Terri Schiavo
Categories: Democrats, History, Law, Republicans
A good article comparing the Elian Gonzales and Terri Schiavo cases. A good reminder of why Reno was such a terrible Attorney General, and why Jeb Bush will be a great President (like his brother).
Fisking Mark Steyn on Terri Schavi
Categories: Faith, Law, Republicans
The worst article I have read on the Schiavo case. Terrible logic, terrible rhetoric, terrible presentation.Current Mood: busy Current Music: Pedro the Lion - Keep Swimming |

Kashmiri Terrorists See World Clearly
Categories: Connectivity, The Subcontinent
Islamist terrorists from Kashmir target India's links to the outside world. As their goal is to drop out of the world, at least they are thinking clearly.
Economist Leftists with Fascist Tendencies of the Right
Category: Natural Liberty
Pat Buchanan's American Conservative magazine calls libertarians "Marxists of the Right." But of what political persuasion is the author himself?
My Kind of Terrorists
Category: Greater Syria
Huge and peaceful Hezbollah protest. Another victory for the Bush Doctrine.
Welcome Right Wing News Readers
Categories: Blogosphere, Vanity
Republicans *heart* Lebanese chicks.

Free Trade in Cotton and Marijuana, Now!
Ma-Na Ma-Na Song
Categories: Ma-Na Ma-Na Song, Vanity
Very skippable. A friend saw an ad and declared it hilarious. I saw it, laughed, and said "eh." It's ok.
Skilled Saudis, Bumbling Baby Assad
Categories: Aabian Peninsula, Greater Syria
Like Daddy Assad, the Saudis are master realpoliticians. Like Daddy Assad... Baby Assad's last name is "Assad."
Hot Babes of the Greater Middle East
Categories: Greater Syria, Media, Social Genetics
President Bush's foreign policy is a world-historic success if no other reason than how it introduced the blogosphere to hot Lebanese babes.
Religious Freedom in East Arabia - or - The Saudis are Jerks
Categories: Arabian Peninsula, The Faith
The Saudis not only occupy East Arabia. They are are as big of bigots as Jack Chick.
Federal Court to Bloggers: Shut Up
Categories: Blogosphere, Law
Free speech may protect the aforementioned Jack Chick and Lebabonplay, but maybe not blogs.
Scaled GDPs and Debts v. Cole

Janklow Peons Daschle
Categories: Media, South Dakota
One was wise enough to become a highly visible and powerful liberal democratic from a solidly Bush state. The other killed a man. Together, they haunt my dreams.
The Advance of Personal Liberty?
Categories: Free Europe, Health Mullahs, The Subcontinent
Will India adopt the Dutch attitudes towards sex and drugs?
Forcing Common Interests with Iran
Categories: Afghanistan, Arabian Peninsula, Free Europe, Free Persia, Iraq, The Subcontinent
Iran is our friend, whether they (or we) like it or not.
Human Rights for Muslims in the Anglosphere
Categories: Education, Free Europe
Britain joins the US in welcoming immigrants, while France continues its discrimination against Muslim girls.
Mexed Missages from Stuoh Keroa
Category: Greater East Asia
I don't know what's funnier: South Korea's leadership of comic resampling of President Bush.
ERREUR: L'URL demandée n'a pu être chargée
Categories: Blogosphere, Software, Vanity
A slipshod investigation into a blogspirit-wide system error.
Why the Future Must be Worth Creating

American Multilaterialism, French Unilateralism
Categories: Free Europe, History, Iraq
Believe that Bush attacked Iraq like a cowboy? That France believes in international cooperation? You should have been around in 2003! Two old articles to set the record straight.
The Increasing Obviousness of a Pacific NATO
Categories: Greater East Asia
We're building a PRC-ROK-USA-Japan military alliance. At first we said it was to deal with North Korea. Maybe we actually believed that. But then North Korea refused to deal. And we kept on meeting anyway.
Baghdad Rules
Categories: Greater Syria, Iraq
Tom Friedman is a genius. Syria lives by Hama rules. Through the Iraq War, we have given another model: Baghdad rules. In Hama Rules cities are leveled. In Baghdad rules, people vote. Which one do you think the Lebanese want?
Deadly Viper Assassination Squad
Categories: Greater East Asia, Media
Tying closely into the Pacific NATO post above, the aforementioned Tom Barnett's latest Esquire article. Best part? Kill Kim (Volumes 1, 2, and 3).

Ashcroftian Socialization of Virtue
Categories: Health Mullahs, Law, Media, Republicans
For a homophobe, I was never a fan of John Ashcroft. Nor of Alberto Gonzales strategy of Ashcroft-lite. Well, at least we replaced a Protestant with a Catholic.
Chinese Colonization of Shan State, Burma
Categories: Connectivity, Greater East Asia
The Middle Kingdom slowly grows toward the Indian Ocean. I enjoyed this article when it came out in book form. You know, when it was calledStone of Heaven.
One Free (from foreigners) Korea
Categories: Greater East Asia
Is the Republic of Korea switching sides in the Korean War? Thoughts on an explanation of Seoul's "appeasement."
Kingdom of Disconnectedness
Categories: Arabian Peninsula, Connectivity
Saudis tell their subjects to be jerks. Murderous jerks if they wish.
The Irrelevancy of Federal Credit
Categories: Public Finances
A repitition of my comment on Lounsbury. Whatever happens with social security reform, it won't be a default.
The Tree-Fourths Rule
Categories: Iraq
A Shia-Kurdish Alliance can write a constitution and the Sunni veto is irrelevant. Does no-one read the Basic Law anymore?
Credit Cards Are Good For You
Categories: Personal Finances
Credits cards are much better than I thought. Huh.
Womanly Cobuyitaphobia
Categories: Cobuyitaphobia, Social Genetics
How Carlton Fiorina's femininity may have contributed to her failures at HP.
Core India and Gap Pakistan
Categories: Connectivity, The Subcontinent
India is responsible, Pakistan not. India is a true partner in the Global War on Terror. Pakistan occasionally does just enough to get by.
A Syria-US Matter
Categories: Free Persia, Greater Syria
Thoughts on the assassination and its implications. Let's trade Syria for a Persian Bomb.

Both Technorati and BlogSpirit have cobuyitaphobia categories. Cobuyitaphobia is the fear of synergetic mergers.
Yesterday I blogged on overlap between the cobuyitaphobes and graduate business education.

The latest stories from my central blog
Six Weeks From the Bomb
Categories: Bookosphere, Greater East Asia
Japan is a "virtual nuclear state" that can become a nuclear power within two months. Zen Pundit ties this into the North Korea problems.
Iraq Electoral Turnout Map
Categories: Iraq
A geographical representation of the Iraq popular vote. It would be interesting to see a version of this showing how many seats each party received. With many smaller parties not getting enough votes to gain a seat, their votes are redistributed among the winners.
Towards the Unification of North America
Categories: Connectivity, Immigration, Manifest Destiny, Natural Liberty
A common passport, border, and immigration policy for North America? Hopefully!
Cobuyitaphobia and MBAs
Categories: Blogosphere, Cobuyitaphobia, Education, Vanity
Iran - Iraq - East Arabia?
Categories: Arabian Peninsula, Free Persia, Iraq
Now that Iraq is the second important state to have Shia leadership, what does this mean for Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province? Over the years we will see the slow liberation of that potentially oil-rich nation.
How to Transform Egypt
Categories: Aphrike, Public Finances
Stop giving two billion a year to Egypt. It is building a dependency culture.
May Allah Protect the Syrians -- or -- The Wolfowitz Plan
Categories: Greater Syria, Iraq
Destroying a state can be beneficial.

What is regime transformation?
A policy of...
* Regime Transformation is the challenging of a functional regime.
* Regime Improvement is the support of a functional regime
* Regime Maintenance is the support of a dysfunctional regime
