Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries ….
- Gingrich Suggests Impeaching Obama And ‘Zero[ing] Out’ The Attorney General Over DOMA (Updated) – Hmmm. Gingrich must have realized that Issa had trumped him in political hackery for the day, and took steps to try to trump him back.
- After Leading Bush Admin Charge To Kill FOIA, Issa Issues First Subpoena On Obama FOIA – Ah, partisan hackery at it’s finest.
- FLASHBACK: Ronald Reagan Called Union Membership ‘One Of The Most Elemental Human Rights’ – And that’s not just when he was SAG President, but in reference to Poland’s unions. But that was against the tyrannical Commies who wanted to get rid of unions, not against stalwart GOP politicians who want to get rid of unions, right?
- FLASHBACK: Gov. Walker Promised To End Late-Night Votes Because ‘Nothing Good Happens After Midnight’ – Late-night votes for me, but not for thee!
- Mohler: It’s Inevitable That Marrige Equality Will Be “Normalized, Legalized, and Recognized” – Actually, there’s some pretty lucid commentary by Mohler here on conservative/evangelical Christianity: “You know, it’s one thing to live believing that you’re in the majority position – everything comes pretty easy that way … But when you live in a situation where we’re clearly a minority holding to certain convictions that the larger culture either doesn’t hold or doesn’t hold tenaciously or very important, we’re going to find out just where we stand as Christians.” Ultimately, I think that’s a good thing for all Christians.
- “The HL-10 Lifting Body is seen here in powered flight… – Pretty sure this is one of the couple you see in the main titles of “The Six Million Dollar Man.”
- Stonekettle Station’s List of Things You Shouldn’t Have to Tell Business Leaders – A lot of good advice for any company leader (or, as George suggests, national leader) who is in it for the long haul, for a legacy, to create a healthy company and to leave it that way to someone else. Business (or national) leaders who are in it just to flip things and make all the money they can … will, maybe, manage just about that, if they’re lucky. But everyone else will suffer.
- How Sun Almost Bought Apple in 1996 – Yeah — I can’t imagine Sun having gone for the consumer innovation that Apple has achieved.
- ASUS Eee Note sub-$200 when it hits US imminently – A lot of folks are playing in a lot of niches right now. It will be interesting to see where this plays out in 5-10 years.
- Japan Airlines’ CEO pays himself less than the pilots, takes the bus to work – One could argue it’s largely symbolic — it’s not like he’s giving away all his money to the poor, and I’m sure he lives better at home than most of his employees — but, then, symbols matter.
