Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Fact Sheet: Gov. Rick Perry\u2019s Extremist Allies | Right Wing Watch<\/a> – Lovely.<\/li>\n
  2. Antibiotic resistant gonorrhea and the future of oral sex – Boing Boing<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. News Corporation Backs Out of Sky Bid | ThinkProgress<\/a> – HA-HA! \/Nelsonvoice<\/li>\n
  4. Boehner refuses Obama\u2019s latest budget deal, now “only” wants a few trillion in cuts, no tax increases<\/a> – “We may all be being played here.”<\/li>\n
  5. Is Bradlee Dean Michele Bachmann\u2019s Rev. Wright?<\/a> – The fact is, pretty much the entire GOP presidential slate at this point can be associated with multiple instances of hanging out with, supporting, praising, and being “proud to be on stage with” a variety of lunatic homophobes who think gays should be reprogrammed, imprisoned, shot, or otherwise “dealt with.” I am confident that will be pointed out repeatedly in the run-up to the 2012 election … the question is, will it actually hurt them among GOP voters (caucus\/primary ones in particular) or help them?<\/li>\n
  6. House GOP balks at defense cuts – POLITICO.com Print View<\/a> – Because they are sooooooo serious about cutting the deficit.<\/li>\n
  7. Civil marriage is for Caesar to decide, not the church<\/a> – “We need to give it up. This is not defeatism. This is simply following Jesus in the Gospels, who besides telling us not to act on our fears, also told us to render to Caesar what is Caesar\u2019s and to God what is God\u2019s. Civil marriage is Caesar\u2019s. If Caesar wants to say that you can only get married on Tuesdays, wearing a blue suit and a red tie, that is Caesar\u2019s call. The sacrament of matrimony is God\u2019s. It is valid only when invoked between a baptized man and a baptized woman, in the presence of two witnesses and the spouses\u2019 proper ordinary or pastor or his delegate. Caesar has no say in this.” A spot-on point. Though the writer loses his way over what’s a civil obligation to Caesar (employment law) in the very next paragraph.<\/li>\n
  8. What Would Jesus Cut, Cap, and Balance?<\/a> – Funny, I don’t recall anything in the Bible where Jesus recommends fiscal conservatism and a balanced budget.<\/li>\n
  9. The Voter Fraud Con Comes to Kansas [Dispatches from the Culture Wars]<\/a> – For voter fraud to be effective, it needs to be massive, making up multiple percentage points of the votes cast. There’s no way that’s happening at present in all those localities where the GOP is cracking down on voter eligibility, voter identification, etc. But their efforts are making it easier to reduce, by percentage points, the voters who might support the Democrats.<\/li>\n
  10. Friday Fun: Band recreates Prisoner opening shot for shot\u00a0|\u00a0The Beat<\/a> – Not my cuppa regarding the music, but a nicely done recreation (just watch the second video, which does a picture-in-picture for comparison).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
