Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- The Digital Cuttlefish: Individual Responsibility And Sarah Palin – Has Ms Palin (or her ideological ilk) extended the same grace to, say, Muslims?
- Skepchick » Open letter to a teenage misfit – Words I wish I could pass on to the teen me (along with “It Gets Better”).
- Shakesville: Let’s Get This Straight – “Both sides are, in fact, not ‘just as bad,’ when it comes to institutionally sanctioned violent and eliminationist rhetoric.” The Left has fringe crackpots and marginalized revolutionaries spewing calls to violence and armed conflict. The Right has prominent talk show hosts and prominent candidates and government officials doing it. These are not the same (and I say that as someone who loves to play devil’s advocate; in this case, the devil has plenty of air time to argue his own case, which he does).
- Painless detangling: “roll” hair instead of brushing it – (Furiously types a note to point this out to Margie re Katherine …)
- Pilot Stops Plane for Family of Murdered Child – Bravo, Southwest.
- Abdication of duty – Stay classy, John!
- Bachmann Wisdumb [Greg Laden’s Blog] – Because employers could then afford to hire four people for what they currently have to pay one! I mean, sure, those poor saps would only be making under $2/hr, but they’d have “jobs”!!
- He Should Know! – Because we all depend on Pat Buchanan to pass judgment on whether conservatives appropriating a historic, murderous libel against Jews is appropriate. Stay classy, Pat!
- The Civility Project Is No More – Sad.
- Yeah, No – “Of all the stupid, appalling, jackassed things Sarah Palin has ever said in the history of the time she’s inflicted herself on the consciousness of our great nation, this is, alas, merely the most recent.”
- The trouble with Tigers – martha’s blog feed – martha brockenbrough – author – I want Katherine to be the best … that she can be. And I know she can do great things. But I want her to find the great things that are what she wants to do. Sometimes that means pushing her a bit. Sometimes that means backing off. Ultimately, I want her to be happy, which neither sloth nor excessive ambition will provide her.
