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...
Our Senate Majority Leader belongs to the adorable party, so he can get away with this. Even though the chamber he leads, is constitutionally tasked with figuring out whether a nominee is worthy or not…and it is the only legislative body that can sign off on that. Harry Reid, CEO of Congress’ upper chamber, according to his own words, hasn’t cracked open a Sotomayor opinion. Hasn’t even peeked at so much as a word in any one of ’em. And doesn’t plan to.
He brags about it.
Uninformed is the new informed. Knowing-nothing is the new knowing-something. This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius…
I understand that during her career, she’s written hundreds and hundreds of opinions. I haven’t read a single one of them, and if I’m fortunate before we end this, I won’t have to read one of them. But — I’m not familiar with that opinion, but there will be plenty of time for people who are concerned about the Second Amendment — and there are lots of people on the Judiciary Committee who are concerned about it — they’ll have lots of time to offer her questions and she’ll proceed to answer them. But I don’t know anything about that.
Just another chapter in the ongoing civil war between those who, upon being presented with a package, inspect the contents — and those who inspect the packaging. The “steak” people versus the “sizzle” people. Senator Reid is typifying an elite crusty layer within the “sizzle” camp…those who not only fixate on appearance at the expense of diligently inspecting substance, but bristle with a secret antipathy toward anyone who would deign to take a look at contents. Toward anyone who would, even by accident, become aware of them.
Bragging about ignorance. Just imagine it. But in Camp Sizzle, it makes all the sense in the world.
