  1. North Korea Shuts Down Universities to Send Students to Work – FoxNews.com<\/a> – The GOP is taking notes …<\/li>\n
  2. Competition Through The Courts<\/a> – “When Google and Apple compete with one another in terms of designing better products, they\u2019re both trying to enrich themselves. But their efforts spill over and enrich consumers at large. When Google and Apple compete with one another in terms of designing better lawsuits, they\u2019re both trying to enrich themselves. But in this case, their efforts spill over and enrich law firms.”<\/li>\n
  3. Daily Kos: Anti-racism: DoJ sues modern-day sundown town in Wisconsin<\/a> – We’ve come so far — and we have so far to go.<\/li>\n
  4. Daily Kos: Michele Bachmann rejects the whole of conservative economic theory in one typed sentence<\/a> – Please save this. Bookmark it. Flag it. Favorite it. And remember it every time, from now on, either Michele Bachmann or a Bachmann supporter gets all hissy-fitty over the idea of government spending, of government intervention in troubled industry, of government pork projects, or of politicians lining up at the Washington trough on behalf of their constituents. A few reporters asking a few follow-up questions wouldn’t be amiss, either.<\/li>\n
  5. The Complete Breakdown of Law Regarding Home Ownership: The Essex County, MA Edition [Mike the Mad Biologist]<\/a> – When the law is made ridiculous through its abuse, it ceases to be effective as a law. All those conservatives so hep about “property” as one of the God-given Biblical rights of Man ought to be utterly outraged by how the banking \/ mortgage \/ title system has been gamed, abused, and is now called into utter question. Do you own your property? Maybe. Can someone else claim to own it and foreclose on you without your even knowing about or being able to fight it except after the fact? Certainly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
