Yesterday I managed to catch up on comments and returned visits from two first time visitors. Otherwise, I worked on the computer all day. I have reinstalled and reconfigured most of the software I use regularly. I recovered all my documents and pictures from a Documents backup I made on a CD. Otherwise, I would be weeks behind on my volunteer work, not just days. I hope to get some visiting in today.

Today it took me 3:41. To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From Open Left: All speculation to the contrary aside, U.S. Rep Bart Stupak says he has every intention of running for re-election this fall.
That starts the day with bad news. I hope someone will take out this coat-hanger mavin in the primary.
From TPM: North Carolina Republican Party Chairman Tom Fetzer has called upon Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele to resign — an event that is believed to be the first time a state GOP chair (and first RNC member) has openly called for Steele to quit.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! π―
From Think Progress: With a deadpan, Beck insists that he is not political: βI could give a flying crap about the political process.β Making money, on the other hand, is to be taken very seriously, and controversy is its own coinage. βWeβre an entertainment company,β Beck says.
Even thatβs a lie. Fox does have an infotainment factor, like when they talk about how evil hooterlicious ladies are, while displaying enough of them to cake Bubbaβs beard with drool. But what Beck does is not infotainment. Itβs infoganda.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
We can’t let Steele resign – he’s too much of an asset – for the Dems!
Amen, Lisa!!
