Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- Ollie North On What Happens If Gays Are Allowed To Serve Openly In Military: ‘NAMBLA Members’ Are Next: Igor
- The Religious Right Will Decide What Is Best For Women in Uniform: Kyle
- Couples who say ‘we’ do better at resolving conflicts – Interesting — and, honestly, not all that surprising. Now, the question is, is this an attitude / framework into which a couple can train themselves (if it doesn’t come “naturally”)?
- Corporate Personhood: Bill Would Force CEOs To Say “I Stand By This Message” – It will never pass, but I LOVE it.
- Florida Christian Group Purposely Uses Wrong Photo To Mock Adoptive Couple – “Deception, insults, and petty schoolyard taunts. It’s all they have.” But remember, when you do it for God, it’s okay!
- Top Ten Mistakes Managers Make With Email – WSJ.com – I’m probably going to send this to a lot of folks at my office. And … tape a copy of it to my own wall.
- Scott Brown Claims That The Stimulus Has Not Created ‘One New Job’: Guest Blogger
- Flashback: Shelby Pledged To Do ‘Whatever It Takes’ To Deliver ‘Up Or Down’ Votes On Bush Nominees – And the hypocritical hits keep coming.
- FillAnyPDF Lets You Electronically Fill In and Sign Any Form [PDFs] – Hmmm … interesting idea …
- Lobbying Imperils Overhaul of Student Loans – NYTimes.com – If they can spend millions of dollars on lobbying, that makes it pretty clear they’re making a lot more money than that. No wonder they’re pulling out the stops to make sure the money train keeps chugging their direction.
- Sen. Shelby Holding Up All Obama Nominees — Including Top Security Officials — To Secure Pork For Alabama – I understand it perfectly — it’s professional malfeasance on behalf of a Senator who considers it more important that his state gets plenty of pork than that the government works. Idjit.
- Tancredo says Obama won because we lack a ‘literacy test before people can vote in this country.’ – I am SO glad he is no longer my Congressman.
- Robertson’s Ties to Charles Taylor Raised in War Crimes Trial – Sorry — the very idea of an ostensibly Christian leader owning a gold mining company … is surreal to me.
- CADC Fisks Year-Old Obama Speech To Prove Christianity’s Superiority – In other words, “It’s unfair to criticize Christian intolerance in the same way you criticize it in other religions because, you know, Christianity’s TRUUUUUE!” QED.
- A Sculpture That Perpetually Sells Itself On eBay – This is … I can’t decide if it’s brilliant, stupid, or both.
- Depressing, the button… – Been there, deleted that. Just not enough hours in the day. [Link fixed.]
- The autism-vaccine lie that won’t die – Salon.com – I suppose the media ought to be happy with what influence they have. Too bad that with that great power we don’t see more great responsibility.
- Glenn Greenwald – Salon.com – This ought to be required reading for every US citizen. No joke.
- Carly Fiorina’s Holy Grail of unintentionally hilarious attack ads waves its private parts at your auntie – Wow. That is so awful in so many ways, it’s amazing to believe that the campaign actually approved it. DEMON SHEEP! (Although I do like the implication that “good, responsible conservatives” are, themselves, sheep, albeit arguably non-demonic.)
- Prayer Breakfast Fallout: Christian Group Defends Uganda’s “Kill Gays” Bill – Ugh. This would be disgustingly laughable if, y’know, they weren’t talking about KILLING TEH EVIL GAYZ. And if the dude clearly didn’t want us to do the same in the US.
