Headlines, The Catching Up Edition
Gah, sorry I've been so sporadic with the postage this week. It's been a crazy past couple of days. I've been so scattered I haven't even gotten around to watching one of my favorite downloaded tv shows, if that makes you feel any better.
Sidenote: What's going on with the psycho snow storms? First Colorado got slammed all December and January, now Upstate New York got 110 inches in a week. Now, I used to live in Upstate New York, so this isn't really all that unusual, but... still.
Anyways, have some linkspam.
++ Earlier this week disgraced former minister Ted Haggard claimed he is cured of his evil gayness and is now "completely heterosexual". Uh huh. Mike Jones, his former prostitute, responds.
++ Wikipedia could shut down withing 4 months unless you DONATE NOW OMG. Sounds like a fundraising scheme to me, but if there's truth to it, how on earth would I survive without Wikipedia?
++ Congress finds ways to avoid lobbyist limits.
++ In New Hampshire, Clinton owns up to her vote on Iraq War. Kinda sorta.
++ How green was my wedding.
++ Soft landings for departing CEO's.
++ States fund anti-abortion efforts. That's not disturbing or anything...
++ Obama forged political mettle in Illinois capitol.
++ In case you missed it, Obama "officially" declared his candidacy yesterday. I like his redesigned site with the "Dashboard" feature. I signed up, as "Luna" of course. You can add me, just like on MySpace! Nifty.
++ For the record, I'm still a Hillary girl. But I'm realistic, and I really like Obama, so I'm keeping my options open at this point. I also like John Edwards, for what it's worth.
++ Rolling Stone has a great, long feature on Obama in their current issue.
++ WaPo says Obama sets lofty agenda.
++ I really don't like the Australian PM. But I do like the Obama camp reaction, which is basically if this dude likes the war so much why doesn't he send more Australian troops? Heh.
++ Dixie Chicks could bring political edge to the Grammys.
++ Blogs you should be reading (even if Markos isn't).
++ How they do universal health care in other countries.
++ Making it easier to form unions.
++ Wal-Mart, SEIU collaborate on health care. There's a sentence I never thought I'd see.
++ Youth suicide up after decades of decline.
++ Fruitcake polling higher than Bush. HA!
++ Somebody buy me this t-shirt please?.
