Thinking Meat

It seems like some "anti-war" lephtists are sponsoring ads on Blog*Spot, so I'm seeing the Stop the War Machine ads at the top. Whoever sponsors those ads, I just want to say "thank you" for paying for much larger space for me to refute your idiocy. I'm sure the "peace pins" will shock and awe the Bushies into backing off Iraq.

(The other link says Intifada, but it leads to Questia, which, as far as I can tell, is not a political site, and has some mainstream publishers as its sponsors and content providers. No idea what they are doing hooking up with the appeasement crowd.)

In case you're wondering why I don't just pay the 15 bucks and get rid of the silly ad all together: mostly, it's because I consider this a temporary setup. If I find myself sticking with blogging, I plan to find me a real hosted home somewhere, complete with Movable Type or whatever strikes my fancy. The ads aren't horribly bothersome, are they?

Update: for any of you thinking of starting a blog, I'd point out that both thewarmachine.com and thewarmachine.blogspot.com are still available.
