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...
Watched a re-run of that skit on Saturday Night Live in which President Obama transforms into The Rock Obama. It’s stupid but it makes me chuckle…in a sad kind of way. It’s also a useful insight into the soul of the Manhattan blue-blood liberal; I guess they’re still pretty happy with The Man, but they wish He’d get a little bit angrier.
The skit is all about the health care reform bill. And yet not a single word is said about the 30 million or 35 million or 40 million or 43 million or 47 million or hundred gazillion indigents who are so abso-tively screwed unless this thing passes. Not a peep about that. Pretending to try to help the downtrodden is soooo 2008.
Remember: For the skit to be aired, there has to be some critical mass of folks who will relate to it. For the skit to be written and acted-out, there has to be at least a feeling that the critical mass is out there. So what’s the point? Now that we have all these perfect people in charge of everything, and the knuckle-dragging conservatives have been relegated to the margins, things still aren’t quite right because the fellow at the top of the org chart doesn’t get angry enough. The health care bill has to pass…just because. Not for anybody’s benefit, just to win-win-win. An election victory is not enough. There has to be blood. Blood and rage. Yeah, that’s what we need for our perfect society — today. That is the one thing that is missing from our happiness — today.
These people are absolutely out of control. Words cannot express how much.

His approval rating is down to 33% in my state. I think he lost Missouri by about 3,000 votes or some other absurdly small number.
