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...
This is why sometimes you have to quit watching the news on the teevee, and go find out what really happened on crackpot right-wing blogs…or maybe even this one.
The guy who threw a book at President Obama’s noggin turned out not to be a racist teabag scum, but rather, a slobbering Obama fan; one of the few remaining at this late date. Media Blackout Time. You’ve not heard a syllable about it since.
The man who threw a book at Obama in Philadelphia yesterday is a New York antiques dealer called Sajid Ali Khan.
Sajid Khan – The Obama Book Thrower
Rather bizarrely given that he was arrested for it, he’s written a web posting celebrating, what he has called, his day of “daring, courage and lunacy”.Khan, a self-styled ‘wisdom coach’, who scribbles furiously online about why “wisdom is a fragrance of the brain”, “why the man’s sperm is tiny while the woman’s egg is huge” and – a particular bugbear – “why horniness is a 24/7 epidemic that must be stopped” was trying to get a copy of a book containing all his musings in front of Obama.
On a rather eccentric community page at google’s knol platform, Khan describes what happened himself.
“Usually I am able to place myself at a point where I can shake the hand of the President and talk to him. This time I was one fence away so there was no way I could speak to him. There was five rows of people between me and the President. I was still about 10′ away from him. So I held up my book and as soon as he looked at me I tilted the book to show him that I wanted to give it to him. I did it a few times when he looked towards my direction. The President is extremely intelligent and is always looking for new ideas so I could see that he took several good looks at the book. But he did not say anything. I realized that it was going no where.”
I call on the rapidly shrinking community of Obama enthusiasts to refudiate this manic-depressive zealotry. Soon, or someone just might get hurt.

Incidentally, on that Powers piece linked above there is a true “best sentence” moment taking place. The subject is the other disruption of His Divine Eminence’s speech, some naked guy streaking around trying to win a million dollar bet or some such.
Documenting the noble efforts of the appropriate authorities to provide the modesty the streaker is lacking, by covering his junk with an Obama-logo “Vote 2010” poster, Powers comments —
No matter what the guy’s political and/or PR motivations, the left has finally found their “out of control teabagger.”

AGAIN.
And yet, a certain progressive relative I have has already permanently catalogued it as “violence” from the Tea Party. Mission [of the media] accomplished.

I don’t understand why it was a story. More people should be throwing their shoes at the idiot. On a daily basis.
