  1. Olbermann, Assange, and the Holocaust Denier<\/a> – If nothing else, this brouhaha helps demonstrate that there are a lot of shades of gray out there.<\/li>\n
  2. RTD resumes service through area where fatality occurred – The Denver Post<\/a> – Re the accident that shut down the Light Rail this afternoon. If I’d left at the normal hour, I might not have been more than slowed. Oh well. (Plus: love the classy debate started up in the comments about how this proves that busses are better than rail … yeesh.)<\/li>\n

  4. The rush to smear Assange’s rape accuser – War Room – Salon.com<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. Whatever the Julian Assange arrest is about, it’s not about how much women suck – Boing Boing<\/a> – Bottom line #1: We know close to nothing about the case. Bottom line #2: Even if Assange is guilty, it has nothing to do with the merits of what WikiLeaks did, or the information they released. But it’s a great distraction from it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
