There are a couple of good things about the California wildfires. First, the media is forced to cover a large news story with actual relevance that has virtually no bipartisan angles. A million people in Southern California are evacuating their homes - isn’t that a bigger story than the “four miners” incident that saw almost […]
Greetings BPNers. I haven’t been able to post much lately, so I thought I’d share some interesting news tidbits over the last couple of weeks or so:
All over the news this morning was the announcement that a new tape was issued by Al-Qaeda. The audio tape contains a message by Osama bin Laden calling for […]
Today’s already been an insane day for news, and it’s only noon.
Alberto Gonzales Quits
As Aaron has already posted, Alberto Gonzales it outta here effective September 17th. What’s interesting here is the total polar opposite positions on him. Dubya says that Gonzales was an awesome public servant who only resigned because he was a distraction, and […]
Fred Thompson appears to be leading the polls for Republicans right now, despite not formally being in the race. He edged Giuliani by one percent in one poll. Again: a guy who isn’t running for president yet. It’s obvious that he will, but I wonder about the timing of this. Do you come out and […]
Since you probably won’t get a whole lot of content here through Tuesday (it being Christmas weekend), I decided to bring out an old friend…the BPN Mixer. Not that this really counts as “content.”
Virgil Goode Not Backing Down
A follow up to yesterday’s post. Republican Representative Virgil Goode said that unless Americans take a […]

300,000,000 Strong
From before I copied this link until now, the U.S. population has gone up by about seven to about 299,999,687, and is set to hit 300 million today.
Bears Win, Bears Win
Last night was one of the craziest games I’ve seen on a Monday night in a long time - for most of the game, […]
Kim Jong goes Nuclear
An earthquake that was about a 4.2 on the Richter scale was detected in North Korea this weekend, and N. Korea is reporting that it was an underground nuclear test.
Luckily, in nuclear terms, North Korea is in the stone age. Look at these stats:
They only have enough material for 6-8 nuclear bombs.
They […]
I’m introducing what I’m calling the BPN Mixer - since we don’t update the main page over the weekends, really, I decided that Monday would be a good time to look at several different news items that have been happening just so that we can get caught up to speed.
At the bottom of each part […]
