Fear the Turtle

National Journal offers up their take on the 2008 Presidential Candidates (less than 30 months away!). The sleeping Edwards giant awakens in Iowa, Mitt Romney still sitting pretty (those eyes!) and John Kerry is still wearing the Laverne sweater.



I have a feeling about one or two candidates not on these lists but whom are discussed in greater detail at National Journal.

Rather Bored, Rather Sad


Among the places he had sought solace, he said on a recent afternoon, was in "Good Night, and Good Luck," George Clooney's homage to Edward R. Murrow and the CBS News of old, a film that Mr. Rather said he had seen five times in theaters, most recently alone.

Rock n Roll and Politics: Better Together

In honor of My Morning Jacket's epic 31-song set at this past weekend's Bonnaroo (thank you jeebus for streaming internet), here is a clip of MMJ rocking Conan's socks off from a couple years ago.



1. The Devil really does wear Prada.

2. Bobby Kennedy Jr. puts his JD where his mouth is.

3. Not since we met the President's nephew, Pierce, has the staff here at SSA liked the blood relatives of an elected Republican so much. We present: the MySpace pages of Congressman Bilbray's kids.

Wil-Wear or birth of Hipster-Hop?

From Reuters:
Wal-Mart has taken numerous steps in that direction. Artists such as Ashanti, Destiny's Child and Jennifer Lopez are among those with branded perfumes available at the mass merchant. Additionally, the retailer started a major promotion last year with BET, in which DVDs carrying the black-oriented cable network's imprint are packaged with CDs from select artists. And this summer, Wal-Mart will roll out Exsto, an "urban sportswear" fashion line being overseen by Jeff Tweedy of rock band Wilco, a former partner in Sean "Diddy" Combs' Sean John clothing line.
Too funny.

Almost Half of Americans are Idjits

Almost Half of Americans Believe Humans Did Not Evolve Religion is major predictor of attitudes toward human origin
by Frank Newport GALLUP NEWS SERVICE PRINCETON, NJ -- A recent Gallup Poll shows that almost half of Americans believe that human beings did not evolve, but were created by God in their present form within the last 10,000 years or so. These conclusions are based on responses to a specific Gallup Poll question that provides respondents with three alternative explanations for the "origin and development of human beings": 1) Human beings have developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life, but God guided this process. 2) Human beings have developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life, but God had no part in this process. 3) God created human beings pretty much in their present form at one time within the last 10,000 years or so.

Make the worst booing noise you can


Reason #2094 why I'm no longer an Orioles fan. And yet I still want to go Hevesi on this kid.
