Links of the Week
Woo-hoo! It’s that time to dig what was on this past week’s Series of Tubes!
Politics
It’s only been a couple weeks since Bush said SHIT over a reporter’s microphone, and I still haven’t chimed in. That’s because I don’t care. However, were I to add anything, zefrank covers it quite nicely.
Because the moral high road wasn’t high enough, Rove bolstered the White House’s case against federal stem cell research by lying. Well, maybe “lying” is a bit harsh. I mean when you just make shit up, then your reality is quite clear. So here’s Rove telling it like it is (except to the rest of the world that has a fact-based reality.)
Probably the best summary and commentary on net neutrality was featured on The Daily Show. Seriously. If you want to get the five-minute low-down on net neutrality without developing narcolepsy, you can do it here.
Watch This
If you click on any link and watch a video this week, this is the one. This isn't Oliver Stone style conspiracy theory. Here is a sworn testimony from a programmer involved in voting programs and machines who explains how he was asked to write code rigging a hypothetical election. I’d love to know where this hearing happened, who was involved, and so on. Nonetheless, this is a quantum leap in exposing our new-fangled voting machines and potentially how the hell monkey-boy got elected (again!)
Fun stuff
Um, this... uh. Well, just click the link and see for yourself.
And here’s an interactive time killer of greatly useless but quasi-creative proportions.
