The "Suspicious Timing" of Sullivan's "Increased Bandwidth Costs"

American Digest points out that Sullivan's "bandwidth costs" have skyrocketed at just about the same time he can begin expecting a new, friendly audience of Kerry Democrats who probably haven't donated to him yet.

Thanks to CCWBass/Way Off Bass.

In related news, I'm reluctantly coming to the conclusion that George Soros is really a heck of a guy, extraodinarily generous in supporting causes he believes in.

I'm reluctantly beginning to agree that we should have legal, government-subsidized pot and on-demand euthanizations. And whatever else he believes in, actually.

He's also a strikingly-handsome man, the sort of man that women want to be with, and that men want to be. Or even be with, too.

I can be had, George. You name it, buddy, you got it. Nothing's off the table. Nothing. You know what I mean there, Sexy? All access, Stud.

Sweet Victory: One reader tells me that his donation to me was one that previously would have gone to Sully. He calls it a "redirected" donation.

Redirect away!

Now, should my Ducati be black or red? Black is cool, but it's very common. Red is a little "Hey, look at me!," but then, it is an ultra-high-end racing bike, and I intend to ride it without wearing pants.

Hmmmm...

I don't think you can expect more than 32,000,000 from Soros. Sorry.

Hey Now! We all know that a site is only as good as it's most prolific commentors. As a self proclaimed member of this group, I want a cut of the Soros action! Otherwise, I'm following through on my threat to open up an "Aces and Eights" website devoted to the exclusive commentary of Johnny Coldcuts.

Yeah, cut me in on a piece of that. Heh, I just said "piece."

Posted by: Aaron on July 26, 2004 05:01 PM

I got a pack of pfunks...

Don't mean to offend, but Johnny cold cuts is up to 3 packs of Reds... Ace, you're laggin...

The Senator wants a cut of the "...Soros action!" My, who would have guessed the Senator was such a metrosexual? I suppose we all have our price.

Speaking of price, did Ace recently become unemployed? He is hitting the PayPal angle like Courtney Love speedialing her connnection. What's up?

Duc's are for wannabe's - for the price of a 749 you could get two R6's (what I ride), and either one of 'em will whoop the pants off the duc. Then again, if you're *into*: valve adjusts every, oh, 3,000 miles, dry clutch rattle, numb hands (twins = bah) paying your mechanic waaaaaay too much money for bitch slapping you, expensive replacement parts etc etc, the duc just might be for you.

As much as I hate to say it, I'd go with the gixxer 1k or the new R1. Something about 100 mph throttle wheelies makes me feel tight in the pants.

A black Ducati sportbike? I thought all their sportbikes came in any color you wanted, as long as it is red?

🚨ED MILIBAND [a Minister in Starmer's government] SAYS KEIR STARMER WILL RESIGN AS PRIME MINISTER

He has reportedly reassured Labour MP's that Starmer will be resigning following the disastrous results tonight

It's over
"The end of the two party system in the UK" as first the Fake Conservatives and now Labour chooses political suicide rather than simply STOPPING THE INVASION
Incidentally, the only reason this didn't already happen in the US is because of the Very Bad Orange Man (who is right on 85% of all policy calls and extremely, existentially right on 15% of them)
No political party that is NOT also a doomsday religious cult would EVER choose a cataclysmic loss -- and possible extinction as a party -- to support a toxically unpopular favoritism of NON-CITIZEN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS over actual citizen voters.

Only a cult does this.
Now they've lost 84%.
Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
If this continues Labour loses 2,148 seats tonight.

That is much worse than the worst case predictions I’ve seen.

Cataclysmic

Update: They've now lost 88% of the seats they're defending. As I mentioned earlier, I think I heard that London will not bail them out, as many of those Labour seats will probably flip to "Muslim Independent" or Green. Detroit's 5am vote will not save them.
Yup, Labour is losing 80% of its seats...
The British Patriot
@TheBritLad

🚨 BREAKING: Labour have lost 80% of all seats contested as of 2:25 AM.<
br> If this continues, Keir Starmer will be out of office next week.

Reform has surged and projected to pick up between 1700-2100 seats.


Wow, up to 1700-2100 seats. It's not incredible that this is happening. It's incredible that the Davos crowd is so absolutely determined to privilege Muslim "migrants" over the actual native population who elects them, no matter how loudly the natives scream that they want to be prioritized, that they will gladly self-extinguish as a party rather than simply representing the interests of their own voters. Astonishing.
Remember, when they call other people "cultists" -- they are the ones so imprisoned in their social reinforcement and discipline bubbles that they will choose political death rather than dare upset the Karen Enforcement Officers of their cult.
Update: Now they've lost 83% of the seats they were defending.

@DPJHodges

Reform are basically wiping Labour out in the North. It's not a defeat. It's not even a rout. Labour are simply ceasing to exist.

@lowles_nick

Tonight’s results are calamitous for Labour. Not just for Keir Starmer's leadership, but for the very future of the party
STARMERGEDDON: In early returns, Reform gains 135 seats, Labour loses 90, the Fake Conservatives lose 36 (and I didn't even know they could fall any further), the Lib Dems lose 4, and the Greens gain 6. Note that the only other party gaining seats is the Greens and they're only gaining a handful of seats.
Update: Reform now up 145, Labour down 98.
Labour projected to lose Wales -- where they've ruled for 27 years.
Fulton County Georgia just discovered 400 boxes of ballots for Labour
Update: REF +156, LAB -107, CON -45
Brutal: In four out of five council seats where Labour is defending, they've lost. 80%.
I'm sure it's not this simple, but Reform is straight taking Labour's and the "Conservatives'" seats. They've lost almost exactly what Reform gained. If understand this right (and warning, I probably don't), all of London's council seats are up for election, and Labour might lose hugely there, as their old voters abandon them for Reform, Muslim Indenpendents, and the Greens.
REF +190, LAB -134, CON -56.
Updates on the Labour collapse in council elections -- which wags are calling #Starmergeddon -- from Beege Welborne. There are about 5000 seats up for grabs, Labour is expected to lose 1,800, Reform will probably gain 1,580, up from... zero. So this would be more than that.
People claim that while Labour has adopted the Sharia Agenda to appeal to the million Muslims it allowed to migrate to the country, those voters are ditching Labour to vote for the Muslim Independent Party or the Greens. Delicious. This shadenfreude is going straight to my thighs.
Oh, and if Starmer loses about as badly as expected, Labour will toss him out of a window Braveheart style and replace him. He will announce he is resigning to spend more time with his Gay Ukrainian Male Prostitutes.
Media bias and senationalism are as old as, well, the media:
spidermanthreatormenace.jpg

That was written by Denny O'Neill and illustrated by, get this, Frank Miller. Editor to the Stars Jim Shooter was in charge at the time.
I always thought the gag was original to the comic book, but in fact the "Threat or Menace" headline was a satirical joke about media bias and sensationalism for a long while. The Harvard Lampoon used it in a parody of Life magazine: "Flying Saucers: Threat or Menace?"
