  1. Boehner’s deregulation agenda<\/a> – “The Republican agenda of the 21st century — start with a base of Bush\/Cheney, throw in a heaping tablespoon of Tom DeLay, and add just a pinch of the John Birch Society. Heat to a boiling point and serve.”<\/li>\n
  2. Boehner: Only Regulate in \u201cEmergencies\u201d<\/a> – “To summarize: Boehner went to a meeting with industry lobbyists and came away with the idea to let those industries avoid all new government regulation\u2026until AFTER that lack of regulation has created a disastrous situation that can be classified as an emergency.”<\/li>\n
  3. DIY summer bracelets<\/a> – Ah, the Joy of Lanyards …<\/li>\n
  4. Montana Pole Dancer (from the USGS) : Greg Laden’s Blog<\/a> – Do not try this at home. Or, maybe more importantly, DO NOT TIP!<\/li>\n
  5. The New York Times Goes Nuts, Says The Government Should Regulate Google’s Search Algorithm<\/a> – “If Google thinks promoting its own products can help it make money, while maintaining a search product that people want to use, and that third-parties want to promote in their browsers, sites, and apps, that isn’t an antitrust problem, it’s a great business model.”<\/li>\n
  6. Why voters are angry in one graph<\/a> – A rising tide swamps all ships.<\/li>\n
  7. Peter Fernandez, Voice of Speed Racer, Dies at 83 – Obituary (Obit) – NYTimes.com<\/a> – RIP, Speed.<\/li>\n
  8. Right Wing Apoplectic That Montana School Is Teaching Tolerance, Safe Sex, And Anti-Bullying Measures<\/a> – As noted, “Hannity, O\u2019Reilly, Ingraham, and many right-wing conservatives actually have no problem imposing values onto students \u2014 as long as they\u2019re the values they champion, as found in programs like abstinence-only education.” Nor do they have problems with Christian-based values and theology being taught. But heaven forbid that third grades be told it’s not right to call kids they don’t like “faggot.”<\/li>\n
  9. Beck asks Americans to put God in charge | The Salt Lake Tribune<\/a> – I actually take my faith and my patriotism very seriously. I just don’t conflate the two, nor do I assume that those who don’t are actually Atheist Marxist Tyrants out to destroy both God and Country.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
