Nothing very much going on in the world today, and I’m getting antsy to spend some time outside on what is proving to be a most unseasonably beautiful day out. Round that out with the something-or-other I think I’m coming down with, and it just hasn’t been the sort of day that makes me want to write. So, it can only be time for a link dump! (And yes, some of these are from yesterday; still worth reading).
–Brent Rasmussen, with a great takedown of a profoundly stupid creationist (the last paragraph is everything I failed to say in the atheism v. theism dustup we had here last week).
-Jill at Feministe has a meandering (in the best way) defense of Boomer activism and attack against the institutional racism of the GOP.
–David Broder defends the Gore speech.
-Various parties agree: the Democrats are fucking up. Plus a cartoon (hat tip to Cameron for pointing that out).
-Holden at First Draft with the President’s latest PR triumph.
