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...
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer today signed a controversial immigration bill into state law, advancing a politically charged debate that is already having reverberations in Washington.
“Respect for the rule of law means respect for every law,” said Brewer, a Republican. “People across America are watching Arizona.
“We in Arizona have been more than patient waiting for Washington to act,” Brewer added. “But decades of inaction and misguided policy have created a dangerous and unacceptable situation.”
What a hussy. Where’s she get off?
His Eminence is not pleased.
“Our failure to act responsibly at the Federal level will only open the door to irresponsiblity by others,” [President Barack] Obama said. “That includes for example the recent efforts in Arizona, which threaten to undermine basic notions of fairness that we cherish as Americans, as well as the trust between police and their communities that is so crucial to keeping us safe.”
Obama added that his administration could join the fight. “I’ve instructed members of my admininstration to closely monitor the situation and examine the civil rights and other implications of this legislation,” he said, adding that it was “misguided.”
I think I’ve finally figured out what “basic notions of fairness that we cherish as Americans” means on Planet Lefty Liberal Scumbag. It means lawbreaking hooligans and responsible productive citizens switch places. The lawbreakers get away with whatever, with an Officer Barbrady in tow instructing the South Park citizens to “move along folks, there’s nothing to see here.” And business owners and executives are treated like thieves, with bonus-czars breathing down their necks, enforcing “basic fairness” and “social justice” if they’re caught being too productive.
Profit is evil. If you want to make a personal profit, go work for Barry. That’s the only place where you’re allowed to get rich. And, our approach to any given problem is first & foremost to make sure no one can make a profit by finding a solution to it.
Actually fixing the problem?? That’s gotta be violating someone’s “civil rights” somewhere.
The White House’s reaction is nothing more or less than a firefighter’s union, bringing buckets of gasoline to a house fire. And outlawing water.

To top it off, that idiot Andrew Napolitano trotted out the canard that Hispanic voters were a natural fit in the Republican party because they were socially conservative, and this policy will alienate them. Karl Rove is a lot smarter than Napolitano and he thought pandering to Hispanics was a winner as well. Look where that got the Republicans.
We’re also not supposed to do the right thing because we’ll get sued. Doesn’t Arizona have people on payroll already whose job it is to defend state policy? How does this cost them any money? Remind me what this guy did to get a job analyzing policy.

Not a word about the “unfairness” of taxpaying US citizens having their jobs stolen, their neighborhoods terrorized, their wages depressed, their lives threatened, and their property damaged by illegals.
“…as well as the trust between police and their communities that is so crucial to keeping us safe.”
If someone is in this country illegally, I really don’t give a damn whether he “trusts” the police or not. I WANT criminals to be afraid of law enforcement, not the other way around.
