Yesterday's Leftovers

     Liked There is Only one Issue in America for it's insight and that he admits how addicting following this stuff can be.

     Not Really sure I liked What is Crony Capitalism Anyway? as he never really finished answering his question. Still worth reading.


     Liked Obama's New Focus on Democracy, Human Rights not for the partisan stance, but a couple of cool quotes. First from Hilary Clinton's speech "It is a violation of human rights when people are beaten or killed because of their sexual orientation, or because they do not conform to cultural norms about how men and women should look or behave. It is a violation of human rights when governments declare it illegal to be gay, or allow those who harm gay people to go unpunished." Second from Obama himself "Ask Osama bin Laden and the 22 out of 30 top al-Qaeda leaders who've been taken off the field whether I engage in appeasement." Good stuff

     Finally Will Congress Ban Corruption is a great idea that will probably go nowhere at the moment.
