What’s more fun than writing your own blog post? Writing about what other people are writing, that’s what. Even more fun is just linking to what they write and letting you read them for yourself. Thus, please consider reading the following:
Laurie David and Gene Karpinski at Huffington Post musing about Tim “My Dad Sure Was a Great Guy” Russert’s inability to ask candidates any questions addressing the issue of global warming.
Chris Hedges (a writer I admittedly envy) at Alternet on why our last, best hope to forestall an attack on Iran isn’t the Democrats in Congress, its CENTCOM Commander Admiral Fallon, Army Chief of Staff General Casey and Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
Terrance of The Republic of T on the gay/Lesbian/transgender “panic defense” raised by the murderer of Thalia Mosqueda as his excuse for killing her.
Pam Spaulding at Pam’s House Blend on the fear factor campaign tactics of Tom Tancredo.
Gavin at Real Climate on the lack of consensus among global warming skeptics.
Jill at Brilliant at Breakfast on Barack Obama’s spineless attempt at bipartisan centrism.
Managee at Latino Politico discusses the insanity of fence building at the border.
Jill at Feministe reminds us what a cry baby Jonah Goldberg can be when it comes to taxing poor little rich people like him.
Dave Johnson at Seeing the Forest on the willful blindness of Democrats.
Mahablog on the best case against Universal Health Care.
Dave and Sara at Orcinus on when a smear of Ron Paul isn’t a smear: when it’s all true.
And, last but not least, Brad Friedman at The Brad Blog on why The U.S. Election Assistance Commission is succeeding at failing when it comes to electronic voting machines.
Bon appetit!
