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...
Every single Jedi is now an enemy of the Republic. Do what must be done. Do not hesitate. Show no mercy.
I want you to get this fuck where he breathes! I want you to find this nancy-boy Eliot Ness, I want him DEAD! I want his family DEAD! I want his house burned to the GROUND! I wanna go there in the middle of the night and I wanna PISS ON HIS ASHES!
Kill Bond! Now!
My father made him an offer he couldn’t refuse…Luca Brasi held a gun to his head, and my father assured him that either his brains or his signature would be on the contract.
High Sheriff of Nottingham and Prince John:
Sheriff: I hope our little golden hook will catch the fish.
Prince: You hope?
Sheriff: Oh it will… if he’s here.
Prince: If he’s not we’ll stick your head upon the target and shoot at that.
Asteroids do not concern me, Admiral. I want that ship, not excuses.
I don’t know why I’ve got this phrasing in my head, but: Find everything you can about Glenn Beck, Stu Burguiere, and Roger Ailes.
Sadly, Olbermann is not a Vader, Capone or Corleone. He’s just a deranged little man.
And the anger he feels is one that comes by way of shock. Scandals are not supposed to take down liberals. Scandals have become tools, customized to the task of dealing with troublesome conservatives. Every twenty scandals take down ten public figures, and of those ten taken down, nine of them are conservatives. Liberals ride the scandals out. Conservatives get taken out. It’s just not supposed to happen this way.
He wants to be Darth Vader.
But he comes off as just a spoiled little boy stamping his feet. He can’t do any better than that. Poor guy.

Well set up, my friend.
What a screeching little baby Olbermann is. How dare anyone but the media elite dictate what the public hears about. That is, the “real” media, not “Faux News” or “Talk Radio”. They’ve just been roundly embarrassed.
I’ll tell you what. You won’t find anything important out about Glenn Beck that he hasn’t already told his audience over the years.
He’s a recovering alcoholic. He used to be a real ass when he was drinking. He met a woman, found God, and changed his life.
He is not now, nor ever was a member of the Communist Party (as the old saying goes), nor did he ever believe our government was behind 9/11. He’s never been a “white nationalist”, nor believe in “white liberation theology”. He repeats again and again that BOTH parties bear responsibility for bringing us where we are
… and he’s helped inspire the awakening of Center Right America.
They’re angry little kids on a playground and they’ve just been embarrassed in public.
Obama once said publicly “if you want to know what my policies are, you only have to ook at the people I surround myself with.”. Glenn Beck took him up on that.

Hey, he’s a recovering alcoholic! Oooooo! Can’t have that! One T-shirt I saw actually said, “Lush / Chestpainey 2000.” Wow, mature….putting 20-year old alcoholism and Cheney’s heart problems…on a par with being a slumlord TODAY, trying to sell the American people a bunch of global-warming snake oil. Then in 2004, coming up with a bunch of manufactured AWOL crap, compared to selling out the country in front of Congress in 1971 (and never apologizing) and lying about one’s exploits in the very Vietnam theater that you’re claiming makes you uniquely qualified to be Commander-in-Chief.
Worst of all, nearly half the country ate this crap up with a spoon both times it was put in front of them. My dad actually was going to vote for Kerry just because, like himself, the man had served in the Vietnam War.
They were like dogs on a steak with the Rush Limbaugh Oxycotin “scandal” and whatever dirt they thought they had on Ann Coulter.
The difference between our pundits and theirs is that ours aren’t proud of their mistakes. Theirs strut their foibles like some perverted badge of honor.
