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...
Okay, alright…one item about the handlebar-mustache-Koran-burning thing. Maybe. My personal opinion is this really doesn’t qualify for it, this is a story about astronomical magnitudes of smugness.
I’ll just let the video speak for itself. The NewsBusters article about it is here.
This charts a whole new frontier for unprofessionalism and asshattery. Maybe it’s par for the course for “Morning Joe” or whatever…I dunno…finding it hard to get my give-a-damn aroused here. I’m just amazed by it all. Just drop any pretense of trying to learn anything, and fall back on pure finger-waggling?
Well, points for honesty, I guess.

Jaw droppingly arrogant.
OTOH, it’s not like anyone watches morning joe. I was able to listen to WABC again (via internet) in the morning when these lunkheads were booted.

You’re right. They “brought him on” to be seen pontificating. That’s it. Which is what the Left is about.
Now I was never for the burning.
I will say, though, that if the threat of the burning was to point out the glaring double-standard and especially if the man never intended to carry it out (and even if he had…. ) — the fact that “Piss Christ” and flag burning is defended as free speech, but you’d better not burn a Koran because you might offend someone and besides, it would “cause” violence … when no violence is forthcoming from Christians when its name is literally dragged through excrement and our own national symbol is burned by citizens expressing “the highest form of patriotism” and non-citizens especially in the middle east burn our flag….
You know, it just kind of speaks volumes about double-standards.
It’s one of the things many Americans are … ahem, “Pissed” about.
