Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Not sure where to put the hat tip because it’s going up everywhere. But I first found out about it at Cassy‘s place.
This Californian really wants an explanation. What was the intent here? I suppose I should be thankful my hippy-dippy Senator was sufficiently savvy to skirt past saying “this is what your kind of people are supposed to be thinking”…takes some skill to retreat back from that brink, after such a determined and speedy march toward it. Think she got the toothpaste back in the tube? Perhaps. But not elegantly.
It’s nice to see someone pay a price for identity politics. But it’s shameful to see how much damage is done before it happens.
With apologies to William F. Buckley, I daresay we have a more racist bunch of thugs in charge of the really big decisions, than we’d have if we simply went through the first two thousand names of the Boston phone book. And no, that’s not a compliment to Boston. I’m just thinking we put a lot of effort into something with our electoral process and we’ve managed to achieve the exact opposite.

Good for Chuck.
“Diverse” is the new magic word. I don’t care if opinions are diverse. I care if they are correct. NAACP and the extremely progressive Pew Charitable trust say that “green” energy “will” create jobs.
Chuck says “show me”. He ought to move to Missouri. We’d take him.
Her response to “show me the jobs” is “well these people say there will be and that it’s “important”. Oh, and see, these ones are black!
Progressive organizations support progressive policies and progressive candidates. For a winning candidate to sit there and quote Opinion …. Opinion, not fact, not numbers about what SHOULD be happening as evidence that it IS happening is circular argument.
And the pandering to the man’s race is appalling, and telling.

What a frickin’ twit she is. Ma’am.
