Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Nothing to See Here (Psst, There’s Totally Something to See Here)<\/a> – I can see why Disney\/Marvel weren’t eager to have this be the first scene of the movie … but I agree it makes a very fun first scene.<\/li>\n
  2. GOP’s “Pledge” to Rob the Middle Class: No Jobs, No Health Care, No Security<\/a> – The Cheap-Labor Conservative Pledge to America.<\/li>\n
  3. Dept. of Misleading Visuals<\/a> – Lies, Damn Lies, and Bar Graphs.<\/li>\n
  4. Angle takes bold stand against family health care<\/a> – Translation: “If it doesn’t help me, I shouldn’t have to pay for it.” A compassionate conservative indeed.<\/li>\n

Now, if only they’d support them in THE EXISTING LAW.<\/li>\n
  6. Rep. Brady Acknowledges GOP Not Heeding \u2018America Speaking Out,\u2019 Will Ignore 2nd Most Popular Idea (Updated)<\/a> – America has a right to speak out! And we have a right to ignore them if their ideas interfere with those of our corporate masters!<\/li>\n
  7. At least Harry Reid’s GOP opponent Sharron Angle isn’t a witch<\/a> – Will Sarah Palin, who was so quick to condemn folks using the term “retard” be so quick to defend the autistic from Angle’s disdain?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
