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...
Who’s a bigger bunch of dumbasses…these folks at DU…
Form a team. We need teams in California, Texas, New York, and Washington, D.C., among other places. Your mission is to locate a war criminal from the list above in a public place, detain them, handcuff them, phone the police, read the criminal their rights and the charges against them, ask them if they have anything to say in response, videotape the arrest and post it online. Your team should include one or more people who can produce an excellent video and be extremely fast in editing and posting it online. Your team should include people capable of physically detaining your war criminal. Your team should ideally include a lawyer. And, of course, people who can read the charges and question the suspect. Everyone on your team should be able to keep a secret while you’re planning your arrest.
…or the famous couple depicted in this film clip linked by commenter Heather, at Rachel Lucas’ blog…
Think they’re serious?
Gawd…I hope so.
Update 6/6/08: I desperately want to know how those teams are coming along; but I can only send e-mail to “davidswanson” by registering with DU, and registration with DU is supposed to meet the following terms:
Members are expected to be generally supportive of progressive ideals, and to support Democratic candidates for political office.
I’m going to go ahead and respect that. I do not meet this criteria.
Some of the nobodies who don’t come by to not read The Blog That Nobody Reads, might in fact meet it. Some of you might even be registered. I kinda doubt it…the nobodies tend to be the tolerant, thoughtful type…but who knows.
Someone please drop him a line. It’s clear they want to keep the details in the vest pocket to preserve that…heh…all-important element of surprise. We just want to know how the teams are doing. So that we Bush apologists can be properly cowed and intimidated.
Someone? Pretty please?
Update: Oh. Duh. I see it. david@davidswanson.org of convictbushcheney.org. Step 6, it says it nice and clear.
The request stands; I got a feeling a request from a DU member would hold more water.
We’ll have to keep abreast of this one…

God I’d pay extra to see what the Secret service does with dumb asses like this. At first I assumed they were going to harass veterans and get themselves a righteous ass kicking or two.Then I realized the actually planned to try to cuff Dick Chaney.
- Tom The Impaler | 06/06/2008 @ 13:12Holy shit how can people really be so stupid as to believe Bush is a war criminal? I guess it’s a basic need to hate combined with a general ignorance of what is a crime. I think I have more to say but I’m short on sleep, and not too coherent. But Jeez…
Gawd…I hope so.
Me, too. I’d just LURVE to be a fly on the wall when any of those idjits attempt this. And get their asses kicked into next week.
