Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. ‘Legend of Korra’: The ‘Avatar’ Creators on the New Spinoff – Speakeasy – WSJ<\/a> – More on the new series, interviewing Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. Sounds promising!<\/li>\n
  2. The Crime Syndicate: the Evil Justice League<\/a> – Evil Twins — the GM’s Best Friend.<\/li>\n
  3. Drilling on California’s Coastline<\/a> – And if only the liberals hadn’t gotten gotten all persnickety about “spills” and “ecology” and “beaches,” those rigs would still be there today!<\/li>\n
  4. Out of Laser Sights, Out of Mind<\/a> – Don’t you realize that foreign aid simply encourages folks in foreign countries to sit around on their butts and watch “Oprah” all day?! It’s like unemployment for furriners!<\/li>\n
  5. Private Industry Contaminating Your Precious Bodily Fluids<\/a> – Silly writer — modern conservatism has nothing to do with past conservative values, only with The Money.<\/li>\n
  6. Anne Rice Leaves Christianity; Doesn\u2019t Want To Be \u201cAnti-Gay,\u201d \u201cAnti-Feminist\u201d<\/a> – I’ll note that as a Christian, I am not anti-gay, anti-feminist, anti-birth-control, anti-Democrat, anti-secular-humanist, anti-science, anti-life … Though that’s gotten me into some trouble as to whether I’m to be considered Christian at all. Certainly, demoninationally, there are sizable factions within Christianity that are some or all of those things. But there are parts that are not, that care more for Christ’s care for others and love of all.<\/li>\n
  7. The Stupidity Of Liberal Apathy | The New Republic<\/a> – “If the left is going to demand action, it has to do more than sigh when action–even modest action–actually happens.” Nobody is going to claim that the Obama Administration, or the Democratic Leadership of Congress, have been uncompromising drivers of progressive change (except, of course, for brick-lobbing Republicans). But, really — if the choice is between a House of Representatives led by Nancy Pelosi or one led by John Boehner, do liberals REALLY think there’s no difference?<\/li>\n
  8. Past problems for company at heart of oil spill – Yahoo! News<\/a> – Obviously, the problem was that they were over-regulated! Fewer regulations, fewer regulatory violations!<\/li>\n
  9. Logo Blocked! Obama’s Communists Desperately Try To Hide Logo! Furor Over GodBlock UPDATED! | Christian Coalition of America<\/a> – Holy crap, whatever these guys are smoking simply cannot be legal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
