Yesterday I devoted most of the day to catching up.  I replied to all the comments, which took most of the morning.  Then I visited half of our blogroll.  I’ll stay caught up today.

Jig Zone Puzzle:

Today it took med 4:03.  To do it, click here.  How did you do?

Fantasy Football:

Because it was clear that we will not get enough players, and CBS will not let us publish the league to get players from the general pool, I moved the league to Fox Sports, because they will let us go public.  I have sent an email initiation to everyone who was in and two have responded, so far.  If you would like to play, sign into Fox Fantasy Football with any MSN ID.  The League ID is 1023560.  The Password is nogop

Short Takes:

From TPM: Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-VT) has declined to hold another hearing on the New Black Panthers case, which had been requested by the committee’s Republicans.

Thank you for refusing to allow more GOP distraction.

From Public Policy Polling: One of the interesting dynamics occurring in the Nevada Senate race right now is that Harry Reid is outrunning his approval numbers- about 10% of voters who don’t approve of his job performance are planning to vote for him anyway.

The automatic assumption would be that those are folks who think Sharron Angle’s too conservative, but only 40% of them actually hold that opinion. When you ask them whether Reid or Angle would be more effective as a Senator though 87% of them say Reid to only 10% for Angle.

See?  We coulf have dumped Reid as Majority Leader.  People who don’t think Angle is a wing nut thing she’s a dingbat.  A progressive could have beaten her easily.

From Think Progress: Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who many previously thought would co-sponsor comprehensive immigration reform this year, is considering radically changing the 14th amendment. Graham may introduce a constitutional amendment that would overturn the portion of the Constitution which states “[a]ll persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” In other words, Graham wants to end the practice of granting citizenship to the children of undocumented immigrants born on U.S. soil.

And people wonder why I say thet the Tea Party and the GOP are one.
