Jon Swift gave bloggers the chance to choose their own best work, which is just perfect. Incidentally, The Agonist chose wherein he pointed out that the financial meltdown was predictable. Many liberal blogs, indeed, predicted it.

The very best part about the Swift link is the funny as hell cat pics and captions.


Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.

...of the Repug obstructionists: ain't it nice to know that in a time when our economy is tanking, the monetary system is on the brink of collapse, millions are losing their jobs and their homes, Mitch and his buds are really, really, really concerned about inappropriate government spending??!!!! Give me a freakin' break.

cat and mouse. Whoever is governing, the other party has to take an opposing stand, or you end up with War on Terra, War(?) in Iraq, Bailout Scams, Patriot Act, spying on citizens..........hmmmm...oh wait...something is wrong here.

It didn't seem to bother them for the past years as we shelled out zillions of dollars in wars.

I was expecting that maybe with all of the problems we face as a nation and a planet, that at least some ADULTS would show up and do what is right - not what is in their own best interests. I must be thinking of another country/world.....

Here Comes The Reslug Obstructionists just like always. Americans know that the Reslug bedwetters are back to do absolutely nothing, just like the last eight terrible years.

The roundup of a roundup... Meanwhile, the GOP continues to be nothing more than an obstructionist party.

So here it is...

Anyone who has talked to me in depth knows i am an Atheist. In the US i have the right not only to be an Atheist, but at least in theory the right to not worship, not pray and not believe in anything i want to.

I am also a believer in freedom of Religion and if you want to sing nursery rhymes to a rock garden, be my guest.

That is why i have to state my objections to a lawsuit being aimed at stopping Obama from taking the Oath of Office with a bible or having any prayers said during the swearing in Ceremony.

If as President you can not be allowed to be sworn into office the way you want to be sworn in when it comes to your religious beliefs then that would be a violation of the Constitution. No one else will be sworn into office. No one else is forced to repeat the oath.

we will have an atheist President and no one will care just as long as we all have jobs to go to.

There are a lot of people talking about the brutality of Israel's retaliation on Hamas, my question: how should they attack hamas, with flowers? After six months of having rockets launched at them because Hamas chose not to use suicide bombers, what were the Israelis to do? Continue peace talks? why?
Hamas completely failed as a governing body here in failing to protect their citizenry from harm. By mingling with populations of Palestinians, did they think that was going to help their cause? What do you think war does? It kills people and Hamas just doesn't care about anyone, only itself and its wretched hold on people's lives they don't care about. If they really cared, they would see to it the Palestinians under their care would get proper health care, electricity, jobs, water, etc. What they bring is death and that's about it.
What has Hamas done for its people lately? Not much.
