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...
gallup.com, via HotAirPundit:
A majority of Wyoming, Mississippi, and Utah residents identified as conservative rather than moderate or liberal during the first half of 2010, making these the most politically conservative states in the U.S. The District of Columbia had the greatest percentage of liberals, along with four New England states: Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, and Massachusetts.
I’m counting eight of the top-ten liberal states on my “have-visited” list, and four of the ten conservative states.
And let me tell you, this is absolutely bowling me over. Because I have another list in my head of “most-friendly” states. And actually, the ones that rank highest are not on either list. I’d put Tennessee up on top, followed by Ohio.
But these liberal states — the people I’ve met there were not by any stretch mean, just generally unhelpful. Kinda grouchy.
Pretty much exactly what liberals say our conservatives are.
Yeah it’s old news by now…their mad ravings are all just psychological projection.

Utah has always been conservative, largely because of the heavy influence of the Mormon Church which is based there.
I’m a bit surprised that N.H. and VT made the left-wing list. The stereotype of New Englanders is a sort of rugged, outdoorsy, fiercely independent, get-the-hell-off-my-lawn-you-damn-kids caricature. Didn’t anyone watch “Newhart” back in the 80s?
D.C., no surprises there. Its residents went 90-10 for the Democrat in the last three presidential elections.
The other surprise is that California didn’t make the top five. Are you kidding me? We’re a friggin’ workers’ paradise out here. Hello – Berkeley, San Francisco, Humboldt County…..? The blue parts of the state have so many people packed into them that the rest of us have little voice in the state government or who Cali sends to the US Senate.
