Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Honoring Two Christian Men Martyred in Florida<\/a> – Um … the guy confessed he shot them and is in jail awaiting prosecution. Why do we need (even if there was a whiff that the killing was based on religion) a civil rights investigation? Except, of course, to make headlines and emphasize Christian Martyrdom.<\/li>\n
  2. Coup d’etat at Premier Conservative Conference?<\/a> – Apparently letting known GAYZ into the room counts as infiltration and anti-defamation of conservative and Christian (apparently the same) values. Riiiiight.<\/li>\n
  3. White House Urges Repeal of Insurers\u2019 Antitrust Exemption – Prescriptions Blog – NYTimes.com<\/a> – Good.<\/li>\n
  4. Rep. Clyburn: \u2018I find it appalling\u2019 that Rep. King would call the IRS terror attack \u2018a noble happening.\u2019<\/a> – Glad to see someone calling this jerk out for his comments.<\/li>\n
  5. The Right-Wing Backlash Against Glenn Beck: Stop Being A \u2018Clown\u2019 Who\u2019s Trying To Divide Conservatives<\/a> – Nice to see a few people noticing that Beck is, first and foremost, a clown.<\/li>\n
  6. ADF Likens Day of Prayer Lawsuit To Hostage-Taking Gunman<\/a> – wow. Hyperbolic, much?<\/li>\n
  7. Christian Defenders Baselessly Demand DOJ Investigation of Florida Murder<\/a> – Yeah, we’ll be hearing this one chugging around the Internet for years.<\/li>\n
  8. Theater VP: Go F*** Yourself, Here are Directions To Another Theater<\/a> – Somebody was having a VERY bad day. But given his theater’s policies, it’s not surprising that the vP has some anger management issues.<\/li>\n
  9. How I Was Able to Ace Exams Without Studying<\/a> – I’ve come to realize that the notes I take on subjects tend to be actually “mind maps” of conceptual connections (thus the mess of colors and arrows and the like). Some cool info here.<\/li>\n
  10. So how much do Americans like *your* country?<\/a> – Actually, not really surprised by any of these stats.<\/li>\n
  11. Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About The Blogosphere in One Handy Diagram<\/a> – Some nice info here.<\/li>\n
  12. No, You Can’t Afford Government Health Care<\/a> – And here’s a big reason why not.<\/li>\n
  13. The medical miracle that wasn’t<\/a> – Sad. And angering — no mention in the story about the facilitator(s) being disciplined for, essentially, making crap up.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
