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...
Due to technicalities:
“We are definitely pleased that the scam that was being perpetrated has been stopped,” said John Pirich, an attorney for tea party groups around the state. “We also hope that the investigation into this activity proceeds as expeditiously as possible.”
Although the court in its 5-2 decision found the Board of State Canvassers “failed to carry out its duty” to The Tea Party by giving a deadlocked ruling last month, the majority opinion stated the justices were “not persuaded” the group should appear on the ballot.
Michael Hodge, an attorney for The Tea Party who had argued before the Board of Canvassers that the group had enough signatures to appear on the ballot, could not be reached for comment. The Court of Appeals had ruled Monday the Tea Party group could not appear on the ballot because of problems with its petitions including that the word “The” was not in 24-point boldface type as dictated by law.
The Tea Party nominated 23 candidates for offices ranging from secretary of state and attorney general to state House and Senate seats, Congressional seats, Oakland County commissioner, state Board of Education and the University of Michigan Board of Regents.
The ruling comes a day after The Detroit News reported links between Democrats and The Tea Party group with 23 candidates that included the former stepmother of the former leader of the Oakland County Democratic Party being recruited to run as well as another candidate who had placed last in a 2008 Democratic primary.
The scandal over The Tea Party group forced the resignation of Mike McGuinness, the former Oakland County Democratic chairman, and the firing of Jason Bauer, an organizer for the county Democrats who has been accused of notarizing many of the nominations.
My goodness, such creativity being deployed to…uh…to………
My goodness, such a widespread enthusiasm for keeping taxes high, and making it as expensive as possible to run that government, and to earn a living and pay for things.
What drives such people? They want to win — we all like to win at things. But when winning can only happen through deceit, trickery and subterfuge, it seems no alarm bells go off in their addled little brains.
They must be getting a cut, or under the impression they’re getting a cut.

Kinda like da’ wimmins, GLBT, illegal aliens, and “…because I’m black”, “Labor” unions, and other overdrawn (and suddenly) Socialist folks
that continue to fall for megaphonying “Democrats- they have a special pill”?
Oh wait, they DO get “special” stuff, the rest get the suppository.
