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...
…is a bunch of lying liars.
People like this, are the reason the national discussion of politics has degraded in civil tone so badly over the last fifteen years or so. This does as much damage to our spirit of fellowship as burning a pile of Korans, and is every bit as offensive.

Hadn’t heard of them until the 2008 election. And when I did hear of them, and from them, it was obvious that it’s another self-serving left-wing organization grandly puffing its chest and calling people names.
Regarding the original Patriot Movement … many of whom see the world through National Treasure and Divinci Code glasses … there is a misconception that the current Tea Party Movement is an outgrowth of it. It’s a misconception enthusiastically endorsed by the current administration along with the entire Left, because they desparately need to smear the Tsunami.
But that Tsunami of regular center-right citizens was building during the Bush Administration and was finally sparked by Rick Santelli … hardly a crazy Murrow Building Bombing Militia Member.
The fact of the matter is that original “Patriot Movement” has been overwhelmed by this Tea Party Tsunami and has been swept up into it rather than the other way around. Actually many of them are upset about it because the rest of us don’t hold to the conspiracy theories that they hold dear.
The fact that they have been somewhat grudgingly swept up rather than (as I’m sure some dulusional ones might think has happened as well) doing the sweeping up themselves does mean that yes, we have some whackos among us. But that doesn’t make us all whackos, or the movement wacky.
The left just hopes that those who pay little attention will never know the difference.
Last I heard, the Tea Party had a 54% approval rating among the general public. That is a formidible PR task for the Left to overcome indeed, and they are panicking.
But it’s not impossible. Never forget. It’s not impossible.
