The History Channel has decided to cancel its 8-part miniseries The Kennedys, starring Katie Holmes, because the "dramatic interpretation is not a fit" for the channel. Good! The show was developed by the guy behind right-wing torture fetish show 24.

British musician/activist Billy Bragg has no love for the racist British National Party, which he campaigned against in a recent general election. Now someone (BNP perhaps?), is sending his neighbors a letter calling him a "socialist leftist marxist." Sounds familiar!

The Weekly Standard's funnyman Bill Kristol has rewritten "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" and boy... it's a real knee-slapper! Here's a little tease: "By then we'll have entered the era of Boehner: Our pocketbooks fuller, our politics saner." Yup.

Oh boy, we hope this happens: Evil Ned Flanders (né John Bolton) is considering a White House run in 2012, because if "inexperienced senators from Illinois" can do it, why can't he? He's coming for your ass, Ahmadinejad! [Politico]

New Jersey this week approved the sale of anti-abortion group The Children First Foundation's "Choose Life" license plates after a 7-year legal battle. The state bowed to the group to avoid racking up more legal fees. None have been sold.

Newt Gingrich is preparing for Armageddon and he suggests you do, too, by purchasing his new movie America At Risk (just $19.95, plus $4 shipping). "This is the end of times. This is the final struggle," the film warns.

A new Islamic center is being built in Murfreesboro, Tennessee and this has scared a lot of white people, who think it will become a terrorist training camp. So, naturally, someone doused the construction equipment with gasoline and torched it.
