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...
People who hate each other can find ways to work together if they share a more intense hatred of some third party.
And, as I pointed out over on the Hello Kitty of Blogging, we tend to dismiss certain things as crazy-conspiracy-theories, just because someone wants us to dismiss them, even when we know as an absolute fact that they’re true.
Another observation: People who have some axe to grind, for whatever reason, against freedom…are given perhaps too much of an opportunity to influence or unilaterally dictate how certain situations are going to come out — when they make a point of displaying their hatred for the people who are in favor of freedom, rather than their hatred of freedom itself. I would characterize this lack of scrutiny on the part of the rest of us as perhaps the biggest mistake we’re making right now, at least among the ones that go un-corrected.

I’d wager Beck has studied the Founders and the Left more than any other media figure — because he’s truly trying to figure it all out.
He’s also pretty thorough with his fact-checking, though like anyone he’ll miss a few.
I know a lot of people don’t like his emotional style. But you know, I think he can’t help it. He’s an emotional guy, and you have to admit, if you do believe we’re on the brink of losing the idea of America — Liberty, Rule of Law, and its culture… it is something to be emotional about.
The Left hates him like they hate Palin.
And he and Palin have become sympathetic friends, I think.
