Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. They’ll reject our history and replace it with their own<\/a> – Money graf: “For all the talk about getting reasonable people with different ideologies into a room to find common ground on a host of complex issues, it’s worth remembering that for many political actors in 2010, there isn’t even agreement on the basics. When dealing with a large group of influential conservatives who believe FDR created the Great Depression, Theodore Roosevelt was a socialist, and Joe McCarthy was a hero, what’s there to talk about?”<\/li>\n
  2. In defense of government<\/a> – What? You mean, government can sometimes, maybe, possibly, be a solution, not the problem? Inconceivable! Must be socialist doctrine we’re hearing here.<\/li>\n
  3. Torture ban doesn’t undermine security: Steve Benen<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. Get ready to have your mind blown: Sandy Weisz<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. To see ourselves as others see us …<\/a> – This looks pretty darned accurate to me.<\/li>\n
  6. The Stats Behind Prostitution<\/a><\/li>\n
  7. ACORN disappearance ‘a shell game’ (OneNewsNow.com)<\/a> – I.e., “We plan on milking the Fear for years to come!”<\/li>\n
  8. WordPress \u203a Blog \u00bb WordPress 3.0, Beta 1<\/a> – Both looking forward to and dreading this. But I’ve also been holding off on upgrading the version of some of my more customized sites with the idea that I’d need to be doing it again for WP 3.<\/li>\n
  9. How to Make Peepshi = Peeps Sushi | Serious Eats : Recipes<\/a> – Um … not my cuppa, but, as Abe Lincoln once said, “Those who like this sort of thing will find this the sort of thing they like.”<\/li>\n
  10. How to Set Up a Mail Merge in Gmail for Personalized Mass Emails – Mail merge – Lifehacker<\/a> – Hmmmm … might be able to apply this to Christmas card labels …<\/li>\n
  11. Controversial former militia leader responds to Hutaree arrests<\/a> – “Don’t be quick to push us around as crazy crackpots, otherwise we’ll act like crazy crackpots!” (Btw, an intro to Fourth Generation Warfare: http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fourth_generation_warfare<\/a> … “I’m Spartacus!”)<\/li>\n
  12. Michigan ranks at bottom of asset forfeiture study<\/a> – I do not see how such laws can be considered constitutional if forfeiture does not actually require a criminal conviction to be associated with it.<\/li>\n
  13. Dianna Parker: Fox & Friends wants to know: Why aren’t the people at Google good Christians like the rest of us?<\/a> – Apparently, if you aren’t for them, you are against them. Good to know.<\/li>\n
  14. Vatican: Pope Has Immunity in Abuse Cases<\/a> – As soon as you start talking about how you have diplomatic immunity, you’ve pretty much conceded the moral battle.<\/li>\n
  15. YouTube – AVATAR 2<\/a> – For those who thought the first film was a bit derivative, it looks like Hollywood’s normal level of creativity is back in fashion in the sequel. Let’s watch the trailer …<\/li>\n
  16. 160 Greatest Arnold Schwarzenegger quotes in 10 minutes – Holy Kaw!<\/a> – Greatest may be comparative, and, okay, so the guy is no Olivier … but there are some fun scenes here.<\/li>\n
  17. INRIX National Traffic Scorecard<\/a> – Needless to say, I’ve been through all of the LA ones. I’m impressed that none of them rank over 7th place, though. Go, New York!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
