Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- Newsweek: Obama Closes Doors On Transparency: The Huffington Post News Team
- Obama To Iran’s Leaders: Stop ‘Unjust’ Actions: The Huffington Post News Team
- En Tequila Es Verdad: Happy Hour Discurso – This the GOP chairman appearing to suggest that the health care / access crisis can be concentrated on by just dealing with one person’s problem at a time. Huh? If it’s that simple to just “get me access,” then we should be able to get everyone access, no?
- One of the Worst Court Rulings Ever : Dispatches from the Culture Wars – This ruling plays into the idea that the courts should not “legislate” over what the states do in their arena. But it also plays into the idea that rights are granted by the government, not protected by it, and that the judicial system is about following the procedures, not seeking truth or justice. A bad decision — not the worst (the accompanying age discrimination one is worse), but bad.
- China tells Google to end foreign site access – FT.com / Companies / US & Canada – Censorship and distraction from internal controversy. Sounds like China all right.
