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...
Ron Paul has ended Mitt Romney’s three-year run as conservatives’ favorite for president, taking 31 percent of the vote in the Conservative Political Action Conference’s annual straw poll.
Paul, a Republican congressman from Texas known for his libertarian views, ran for president in 2008 but was never a serious contender for the GOP nomination.
Romney, former Massachusetts governor and also a 2008 GOP candidate, has won the last three presidential straw polls at the annual conference. This year, he came in second, with 22 percent.
Sarah Palin, who didn’t attend the conference, was a distant third in the straw poll, with 7 percent, followed by Tim Pawlenty, the Minnesota governor, and Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana.
Thus ends any credibility of CPAC. They just put a crazy man on top. Good job, guys.

Hmmm, let me think:
Cast iron life preserver. Porcupine pillow. Rubber crutch. CPAC straw poll. What do these four have in common?
- cylarz | 02/21/2010 @ 00:06I am so unhappy with that vote. Now the libs can counter all the good points made by Beck, Cheney, et. al. with “Those crazies voted for Ron freaking Paul!”
I mean really, it’s like a “progressive” (spit) conference voting for Ralph Nader.
And Romney came in second? Looks like the crazies have a slim majority over the adults. But Paul’s winning will certantly keep more rational adults from joining CPAC. I’m not going there to have a bunch of Paulbots spray spittle on me.
Pailn in third with seven percent? WTF is WRONG with these people?
I’m not happy at all with these people. They are like the leftists who keep pulling for their perfect communist world, damn the facts. CPAC does the same thing to the right.
