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...
Sen. Durbin would like the KOS kids to tell him what they want for the direction of the whole friggin’ country. Well, it’s nice to see our leaders listen to the people who elected them. I’m sure the KOSsacks are going to keep all kinds of diverse cross-sections of this long, broad country in mind as they figure out where we’re all going from here.
And throughout the election, I was worried the Democrats knew exactly what they wanted to do once they got in, and were just afraid to say. Apparently, I was afraid of the wrong thing all along.
Oh yeah, the answers? Nothing to be surprised about. “Redeploy” from Iraq, don’t give any grants to faith-based stuff because Gawd Is Badd, M’kay…healthcare for everyone, and global warming global warming global warming. And impeach, and do something about global warming.
They needn’t have bothered with that first one.
Illegal immigration? Don’t hold your breath. Actually, if you scan the thread from top to bottom, you’ll see an emerging “vacuum platform” — a growing list of things Sen. Durbin should get our government to stop worrying about. Ostrich stuff. Just stop saying anything about these problems and they’ll go away. The KOSsacks say so. I think I saw the illegal immigration issue in there. Hey. Good to know.
I wonder what would happen a year ago if a high-ranking Republican official went on record and said “If the Democrats win, you’ll see Sen. Dick Durbin ask the DailyKOS people for instructions on where to take your country.” Can you just imagine the cat-calls after that. It would have made Kerry’s botched joke look like a mid-speech hiccup by comparison.
And yet…here we are. Did you know you were voting on this?

[…] Hello good people of 2006! I’m from the future. Democrats are going to take over Congress, and one of the first things they’ll do is ask for direction from those whackjobs at DailyKOS. You think I kid! I’m as serious as a heart attack. […]
