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...
Via Ms. Zanotti, we learn Oprah has a problem.
A problem she would not have, if the left wing placed one-fifth as much value on the free expression of ideas, as they have always claimed to.
Last time Oprah decided to choose ideology over her audience, her viewership went into the toilet and her magazine lost 12% of its circulation. After this, she’ll be lucky to be a guest on Rachel Ray.
“Half of her staff really wants Sarah Palin on,” an insider explains. “Oprah’s website is getting tons of requests to put her on, but Oprah and a couple of her top people are adamantly against it because of Obama.”
One executive close to Winfrey is warning any Palin ban could ignite a dramatic backlash!
I’m not sure I’d want poor Sarah exposed to that, anyway. All that crying and fake religion; all those weird women with exactly the same haircut and polyester stretchpants looking serious for the camera. It doesn’t seem like Sarah’s scene. She’s more of an Ellen girl, if you ask me.
Ah, well. If Sarah can handle herself around thousands of pounds of elk, I’m sure she can handle herself around Oprah & crew. The real question is what kind of wreckage she’d leave behind.
Probably like Dorothy after that scene with the bucket of water, only without the mournful apologies.
But whatever. It won’t happen. E.M. goes on to provide a link to TMZ, in which Oprah insists it isn’t true, and she’s got a great excuse anyway.
The item in today’s Drudge Report is categorically untrue. There has been absolutely no discussion about having Sarah Palin on my show. At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over.
Kind of reminds me of the Clinton defense(s). There isn’t a shred of truth to it, he never did it; and everybody does it all the time.

Oprah will sit back and say, “Who? Me? Biased? I can’t believe they said that!”
Yeah, so much for liberal diversity, and tolerance. Right?
