  1. Wise Confucius<\/a> – For the record, several of these (the milder ones) were popular back in my own pre-Internet childhood (I remember scratching them in cuneiform onto clay tablets as I was hiding from dinosaurs …).<\/li>\n
  2. Man Charged With Possessing 4,000 Pounds Of Explosives, Saying ‘We Will Be Mercenaries’<\/a> – Looks like one of them dangerous Muslim extremists to me …<\/li>\n
  3. Rights Clash as Town Clerk Rejects Her Role in Gay Marriages – NYTimes.com<\/a> – If she’s actually delegating all<\/b> marriage license signings to someone else, by appointment, that might stand. If she’s only delegating same-sex licenses that way, then it’s clearly discriminatory, and her religious beliefs should lead her to resign.<\/li>\n
  4. Matt Gertz: Fox Mainstreams Blogger Who Incited Vandalism Of Dem Offices<\/a> – Hey, it’s Fox, what do you expect?<\/li>\n
  5. REPORT: Big Oil Clings To Tax Breaks While Hoarding Cash | ThinkProgress<\/a> – We need more money! Because … well, um … you can never have enough!<\/li>\n
  6. EPA $21B rumors ‘comically wrong’ – POLITICO.com<\/a> – Lovely. Not only is it unfactual, but the original purveyor of the rumor defends it through eyebrow-waggling inuendo. And we’ll be hearing about it for years.<\/li>\n
