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 would be the “I” in the “STACI” quintet of fail-points with progressive ideas…although this isn’t progressive, per se (except for the ObamaCare part), it’s just a fubar’d market built up by an overly intrusive henpecking nanny-state government.
Hat tip to Kate at Small Dead Animals.

Now the stakes for getting the president out of office (so we can think about repealing this hideous piece of legislation) just got that much higher.

- drowningpuppies | 07/03/2012 @ 01:52Somehow that point is never emphasized.
I also would like some support for the assertion that just because people are paying more for health insurance, they’re going to spend more on health care just to “get their money’s worth.” I don’t do this. Do you? Does anyone you know?
I don’t even know what that would mean – going to the doctor for a sniffle or hangnail instead of when you think you really need to? One of the problems with the US healthcare system is that there are too few choices of coverage plans, caused in part by laws that prevent insurance carriers from competing across state lines.
There should be more basic no-frills plans at one end, more high-end Cadillac plans at the other. It’s like this with anything else we spend money on, from motel rooms to restaurant meals to to firearms to cars to the video GPU boards in our computers.
- cylarz | 07/03/2012 @ 02:51Er…I mean, visit the doctor more often to “get their money’s worth.”
- cylarz | 07/03/2012 @ 02:51I took a whack at increased demand for “health care” here:
