I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Tuesday Links

So, it continues to appear that the conservative cry of "Voter Fraud" is mostly because they're the ones doing it. That a link to the troubles Ann Coulter is experiencing, not her first either (you may want to click that link about the FBI getting involved in 2007).

Oh, and well, so much for Glen Beck's protestations to the opposite. I believe that's called, "incitement to violence." Not enough to make a federal case out of it, but enough to tell Glen to STFU about how these whackaloons have nothing to do with him and his show(s). And the "school teacher" thing is a highly cultivated imaged Glen has worked hard at (it's why he uses the chalkboard and started wearing glasses, it's intentional).

Oh, and before I start banging on the conservative for their wacky notions (like the Wisconsin Senate debate devolving into a literary club talking about Altas Shrugged - I haven't read it, but I know enough about the story to nominally support John Scalzi's interpretation), I'll point out that there are enough whack jobs on the left to be embarrassed about (that's an article where Roger Ebert takes on Andrew O'Hehir on Secretariat). It's just the conservative run their nuts for office, the liberals says, "that's nice" and back away slowly suggesting their compatriots may want to increase the dosage).

And finally, a run down on the cases against the HCR Act and where they stand. Not all good news for either side.

And with a few weeks to go, I'm tired of the political ad crap and may have to retreat to the Zombie Apocalypse Shelter for the duration.

Steve, I am so tired of the idiocy that I want to vomit. You got room in your Zombie Apocalypse Shelter? I've got chocolate and alcohol.

Hey Vince, there's always room for chocolate and alcohol. Especially if it's Frangelico.

Be careful, Vince. He never said there was room for YOU.
