If you’ve been seeing “CPU exceeded errors” here at times, they’ll be going away soon.
Polizeros will be upgrading to a High CPU account at Bluehost as soon as server space becomes available, probably in two weeks or so, and will be down for a day or so when the site is moved.
Have you been seeing this error? Let me know in the comments.

Bush is leading efforts to block a health insurance program for children on “philosophical and ideological” grounds.
Let’s see if Congressional Democrats have spine enough to fight for health care for children.

From a PSL review of Sicko, on Michael Moore taking 9/11 rescue workers to Cuba after they were repeatedly denied treatment in the US.
Reggie Cervantes, who has suffered from a pulmonary condition since 9/11, purchases the same medicine for five cents that would cost $120 here.
The right wing has been quick to call the Cuba visit a cheap trick. They say the Cuban government just put on a show for Moore because a camera team from the United States was present. The rescue workers have asserted otherwise. Cervantes, who speaks Spanish, claims she snuck out of the hospital and readmitted herself to see if she would be treated differently as a Cuban off the street. She received the same treatment.

Actual science has shredded the junk science in the documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle.
Our results show that the observed rapid rise in global mean temperatures seen after 1985 cannot be ascribed to solar variability,” they will report this week in the Proceedings of the Royal Society A.University of Melbourne climate scientist David Karoly commented: “These findings completely refute the allegations made by some pseudo-scientists that all recent global warming is due to solar effects.”
Doubtless this won’t keep rabid free market ideologues from trying to slime actual science again. (Such ideologues understand full well that working to stop global warming means an end to their rapacious version of capitalism.) Rumors that they are joining forces with the Flat Earth Society are as yet unfounded.

The White House in “panic mode” over Iraq, while Democrats favor non-withdrawal withdrawal.
But both want the US to leave Iraq without it appearing that the US was defeated. That’s not going to happen. Because no matter how much D.C. lives in their self-referential media echo chamber, the rest of the planet doesn’t. If anything, Democrats are even more deluded, floating plans to “remove US troops from combat” or change the mission to “counter-terrorism and border patrol.” Right, I’m sure the other sides will then stop shooting at them and the US public will think everything is fine.
Both sides suffer the same arrogant delusion, that the US can not leave Iraq because it would be seen as failure. But for anyone with eyes to see, it already is a failure. And as for those who will die so the US can desperately find a way to save face, Congress and the president are unconcerned. It’s not their class who are getting maimed and killed.
