Mike's Blog Round Up
January 22, 2014

As I write this, I note that the Village is all a-flutter over the news that Ezra Klein is now a free agent. At Mock Paper Scissors, we say goodbye to him.

First Draft looks at the meanness of David Vitter's latest poor-people shaming: picture ID to buy groceries.

In a related note, Vizual Statistix shows us homeless statistics in a whole, new way.

Gin and Tacos wonders what could go wrong when Michelle Rhee does a little unscripted Q&A on the internets. Heh.

Bonus Track: Plastic Jesus proves that art is truth, and that truth is art.

Round-up by Tengrain of Mock, Paper, Scissors who also blogs at Dependable Renegade. Send tips, requests, and suggestions to mbru@crooksandliars.com (with "For MBRU" in the subject line).
