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...
All high civilizations have been built by conservatives. You can’t accumulate the cultural capital needed to build any high civilization if you try to destroy the past, as the Left constantly tries to do. You can’t build a chariot if you have to reinvent the wheel every generation. The batty idea that kids have the real answers in life is just a modern delusion. It is just ignorant.
Conservatism builds. Leftism overthrows. That is the meaning of that pop word “revolution.” The all-destroying revolution is an adolescent fantasy, and the Left hangs on to those fantasies a lot longer than conservatives do.

Not hard to prove at all. Just read some liberal blogs. Aside from the usual “we are poisoning the land and the planet and the environment and the world and this and that and some other thing over there” and America is at fault for this-that-other-stuff…there are the toxic items. Look at this awful commercial. Look at this awful magazine article. Look at this YouTube clip. Here, read this transcript of this terrible thing this guy on the radio said. Help me deplore it.
Thoughts about building versus thoughts about destruction. Yeah, liberals like to trot out some token victim to help justify the destruction, but that doesn’t mean they’re about preserving anything. They’re just in the habit of using certain tools for their public relations needs.
Global warming, for example. It always has, back to Day One, been about forcing humans…particularly Americans…to stop doing something they are currently doing. To destroy an activity. The crisis of the day rotates among the American/human activities, but what they all have in common is that some thing being done must be stopped. The guilt is always directed toward a common target. A bulls-eye the size of a pencil lead.
Nobody knows what a “saved” planet would look like. Nobody knows what the carbon saturation in such a victorious, restored global ecosystem would be — even though we can measure it quite accurately now. We don’t know what the goal is, because it isn’t discussed. That’s because that isn’t what the movement is all about. It’s about destruction.
Destroyer wolf, in protector-sheep clothing. That’s pretty much it.
