Local legend Marc Cooper has started a blog, and he has an hilarious yet smug take on the official website of Our Favorite Shiite, the Ayatollah Sistani. This type of snark is a key reason the left gets wiped out in that half of the country that still believes in creationism, et al., and it's probably not a good idea to send insulting e-mail to one of our only remaining friends in Iraq, but still...if I have to give up certain practices because they are Makrooh, then the terrorists will have won.
