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...
I was waiting for the trash pictures to pop up before commenting on the “One Nation” rally, which is the left-wing answer to Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” assembly from two months ago.
I couldn’t be more bored by all the shouting back-and-forth about crowd counts. What is the point of this…that there are more people sympathetic to growing government than people sympathetic to shrinking it down? Who gives a fig, if we can’t afford any more growing? It would signal to us that 2008 is a time for leftists to come into power, but 2010 really-really-is the same thing even moreso?
No, I’ve been holding out for garbage photos. And they have arrived:
More at Marooned in Marin.
Near as I can figure, the message of the “One Nation” rally is that we are all one, we’re in this boat together…so let’s make those other people not count, and really stick it to ’em.
Let’s show our numbers, and our resolve to get out to the Reflecting Pool to demonstrate our steely resolve, and how determined we are…to fight any expectation that anybody should ever do anything exceptional outside of here.
The poor dears don’t know if they want to be ordinary or extraordinary. They don’t know if they’re promoting the excellent or the mediocre. They don’t know if they’re about unity or division. They’re completely confused on all these counts.
No wonder they can’t pick up their trash.
Update: Lest someone somewhere think I’m being unkind…a little perspective, please. I didn’t even raise a welt. What Byron York noticed is gonna leave a mark.
Organizers of Saturday’s “One Nation Working Together” rally at the Lincoln Memorial are proud of their diversity. Before the event, they predicted it would be the “most diverse march in history.” It turned out they were right. Looking around the rally, there were Teamsters Local 311, Service Employees International Union Local 1199, Communications Workers of America Local 2336, American Federation of Teachers Local 1, United Auto Workers Amalgamated Local 171, Transport Workers Union Local 100, and representatives of many, many other unions. That’s a lot of diversity.
Doug Ross has more pictures…these are pictures you are not going to see in the legacy media. Like…this…
Update: Mark links to a video with much more of the same, and we start to see what all the arguing is really about…
