Gingrich the father of Anna Nicole’s Baby? — Fox News Alert

Update #4: “I told you so!”

NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) – Larry Birkhead is the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s baby, according to DNA tests, and the late reality TV star’s former boyfriend emerged from a court hearing Tuesday to proclaim that his daughter would soon be home.

Update #3: “The nude photospread at the link on the first Update will prove without a doubt the fact that I am speaking truth to power.” Blogger Nuke Gingrich’s latest comments come amid charges that his “denial” of being Anna Nicole’s Baby-daddy is in fact a cynical attempt to drive up traffic at his award-winning website. “That’s just ridiculous. There is no evidence to support those charges. I cannot imagine anyone using poor Anna Nicole like that. This photospread is proof positive that I am not the father of Danielynn. Do you see me in any of those photos? I rest my case”

Update #2: “Just give me what I want, and I’ll go away.” Right Wing Blogger Nuke Gingrich has reportedly changed his mind….”I want the house in the Bahamas.”

Update: Planck’s constant has a flicker photospread of anna nicole (sans clothing) in his sidebar. [Welcome WordPress Blog of the day — thank you readers. ]

——————————————————————————————-

Conservative blogger Nuke Gingrich came forward today and announced that he is not the father of Anna Nicole’s baby, Danielynn Hope.

“There is absolutely no truth to the rumor”, Nuke said, “And I have no idea how the rumor started. As a matter of fact, I didn’t even know it was a rumor.”

As the looming custody battle heated up, “ Smith’s mother flew to the Bahamas on Saturday to check on the child, but the big question — the identity of the baby’s father — will be decided in a courtroom.” Source

Nukegingrich, known for his insightful news and comment, and his dry sense of humor, wondered aloud how such a rumor could get started. “Well, after n2l got two straight Top 50 Blog of the day posts, I guess I uhmm, somebody figured they had better do something to attract the search engine bots, this being such a hot story and the cable news networks are all Nicole all the time.”

Counterterrorism Blog – The Real Deal

Jeffery Imm points to some well-deserved kudos:

US News and World Report listed the Counterterrorism Blog as one of the “Best Blogs of ’06” for best “investigative reporting” and “jihadist” research information. As cited by David E. Kaplan, while there are many web sites with “instant experts in counterterrorism”, on the Counterterrorism Blog – “here’s the real deal: some two dozen analysts, scholars, and investigators who have tracked terrorism around the world for years.”

I, for one, agree wholeheartedly. And as a bonus, we get to read Bill Roggio’s excellent front-line reporting.

Congratulations for a job well-done, and best wishes for your continued success in 2007.

Ummah News Links — Nuke’s website of the week

Welcome Back UNL. We’ve been missing you.

A regular part of my daily briefing on the news of the day went silent a few months ago, and I’m very happy to welcome them back to the front lines in the daily news and information confrontation in the struggle against islamic fascism, and their allies in the leftist blogosphere. I highly recommend that Ummah News Links become an entry to your favorites list, or, if you are a blogger, a listing on your blogroll.

from UNL :

Keith Ellison encourages crowd to push for justice: “Allahu akbar” was the reply of many in the crowd.

Speaking in Dearborn late Sunday night, the first Muslim elected to Congress told a cheering crowd of Muslims they should remain steadfast in their faith and push for justice.

“You can’t back down, you can’t chicken out, you can’t be afraid, you got to have faith in Allah, and you got to stand up and be a real Muslim,” Detroit native Keith Ellison said to loud applause.

“Allahu akbar” — God is great — was the reply of many in the crowd.

It is my pleasure to present this week’s “Nuke’s Website of the Week”:

Imagine if Sandy Berger were a Republican

The press should be ashamed.

If the shoe were on the other foot, and the Sandy Berger story had been about a Republican National Security Advisor stealing classified documents, hiding, destroying, and lying about them, and then having a host of supporters going on the Sunday talk shows talking about a “sloppy” accident, the outrage from the press would have made the Mark Foley story seem like a weekend filler piece.

And, you know what I’m saying is true.

Fence Fixing And Saturday Morning Rants

I was putting my trailer away a week or so ago, and clipped the fence with my truck, taking out two sections of fence in the process. Since it rained last weekend, I was able to postpone having to repair the fence until today.

So, this morning, I thought I would just read a little before I began the repair job, and I wandered over to lgf to have a looksee, and followed a link to a website that I had never visited before. It was pretty good. So good, in fact, that I added it to my blogroll. That led me back to my home twenty, where good folks like n2l, vimto, and john had begun commenting on another thread. As a good host, I didn’t feel it to be proper to go and fix the fence while company was visiting. Y’all can understand that, I’m sure.

But I kept going back over to that other website. There was a mighty fine rant from a fellow named RT who said many of the same things that I wished I had said on quite a few other occasions, this one in particular. I’m going to excerpt a couple of lines, and give y’all a link to the rest. It’s kind of long, and I almost didn’t read it all, because I’ve got a fence to fix.
But, I digress. And now, I’m glad that I did read it all, fence or no fence. Besides, I’m going out there to fix the fence just as soon as I finish this post. I promise.

I need to chill, and be like the vast majority of our fellow Americans and stop caring so much about the long term indicators regarding America’s prosperity at home, and our status in the future global pecking order, and just let inevitability pass while I am oblivious to the decline. So what if we fail to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of every 3rd world megalomaniac that wants them. Who cares if Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal falls into the hands of Islamic radicals the MSM refers to as “civilians”. Why should I give a shit if America ranks somewhere near the bottom of the pack in education by the middle of this century. I’ll be dead by then man. Let my kids figure out what to do about that, just like our parents left the North Korean problem for us to deal with. I am going to make it a point to sit down and watch Oprah everyday, just so I can get in sync with the majority of my fellow Americans. I bet she has plenty of good advise on whats best for us, and I need to start keeping up with Dancing with the Stars too, because everybody at the office is always asking me if I seen the last episode, so it must be great. You know, the people in Spain, Italy, and Turkey have gotten used to being a former superpower, hell I guess I can too. I never really liked be a member of the Anglosphere anyway. Do they sell Che’ T-shirts at Wal-Mart? I am thinkin those radical hippies in the 60s were on to something with this “make love not war” stuff. I betcha if we just stopped sending our soldiers into foreign countries the world would not hate us so much. Then maybe all the world’s conflicts would come to an end if all the world leaders would just sit down at the UN and work out our differences in a civilized diplomatic matter. Diplomacy works, our diplomats know more about how the world works than I do, and there’s nothing wrong with compromising with our enemies if that will keep them happy for awhile.

Kumbaya baby, Kumbaya. (Read it all)

Suffer Your Poor Eyeballs No More

After experimenting with just about every background theme offered by WordPress.com, and listening to your suggestions and comments, I think I have found one that works pretty well. It’s called the “rubric”, by a man named Hadley Wickham. I’d like to be able to give you a link to see more of Wickham’s work, but alas poor Yorick, I cannot find one.

Anyway, the rubric is clean, well-spaced, and the colors don’t overwhelm you. Plenty of room to add pages, which I’ll be doing as I continue to unpack and get the blog situated in the Wonderful World of WordPress.

By the way, the blogroll policy is still wide open, if you have a blog that you want me to link, just add me to your blog, and drop me a line to let me know.

All of that will change after I break into the top 100 blogs on Technorati, sometime in 2009. So, hurry while the time is right, and the getting is good. Yes friends, you too can be on the ground floor of Nuke’s news and comment as we grow this blog from a humble popcorn stand to become the next Orville Reddenbacher, or the next  Jiffy Pop, or maybe I can just call it Popcorn Media.
