HERE COME THE SPARTANS

The New York Times hates the new Zack Snyder film, "300".

"300" is about as violent as "Apocalypto" and twice as stupid.

So do a lot of other left wing rags who deplore real history and prefer the revisionist version where the Greeks are not white Europeans and the Persians are not swarthy Asians.

And that is good enough for me. I can't wait to see "300".

Actually, my interest extends beyond loving anything which gives leftists pain. Although, that is an excellent reason. But I also love history, especially ancient history, and more especially ancient history which immortalizes noble sacrifice and honor, which is so lacking in today's narcissistic population of sheep.

Plus I loved "Sin City", the first depiction of another of Frank Miller's graphic novels.  These are great, stylized , innovative efforts in film making. Totally different than the usual left wing propaganda pap spewing from the pores of no talent Hollywood babies.

So, off I go to the theater for the first time in along time to vote with my money in favor of something worth my time and gold.

Here come the Spartans baby!

WHAT MORE IS THERE TO SAY?

>From the Washington Post:

"A bipartisan investigation by the Senate intelligence committee subsequently established that all of these claims [by former ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV] were false -- and that Mr. Wilson was recommended for the Niger trip by Ms. Plame, his wife... The [Libby] trial has provided convincing evidence that there was no conspiracy to punish Mr. Wilson by leaking Ms. Plame's identity -- and no evidence that she was, in fact, covert... The former ambassador will be remembered as a blowhard. Mr. Cheney and Mr. Libby were overbearing in their zeal to rebut Mr. Wilson and careless in their handling of classified information. Mr. Libby's subsequent false statements were reprehensible. And Mr. Fitzgerald has shown again why handing a Washington political case to a federal special prosecutor is a prescription for excess. Mr. Fitzgerald was, at least, right about one thing: The Wilson-Plame case, and Mr. Libby's conviction, tell us nothing about the war in Iraq"
