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...
The HOPE has something to do with the DOW coming down 1,600 points since His election…which is quite unprecedented (H/T: Rick).
The CHANGE has something to do with naming a bunch of old Clinton hacks to His transition team and cabinet.
But I really think what’s going to hurt us more than anything, is ACCOUNTABILITY: The bailout. Try this. Use Google, or whatever you want, to figure out if incoming President Obama is for it or not. Yeah, some of His comments put Him “leaning” in favor, but not to the point that He’s helplessly tethered to it should it fail, as a strong leader would be. He’s not a Captain ready to go down with the ship.
Next year’s U.S. Government, all throughout the executive branch, is going to be a fair-weather friend to the most massive treasury-giveaway in the history of the nation. They can have their cake and eat it too — claim credit if things get better, point to it as another “failed policy of the Bush administration” if it all goes south.
Which means, nobody’s really going to be burning any midnight oil to fix anything.
Change we can believe in? Change we deserve? Yes to both, it would seem…just not in the way some of us thought.
