Glenn Greenwald Is So Right It Hurts
Salon blogger Glenn Greenwald has nearly every quality I like in a man: he's pretty, smarter than me, righteous, and he hates both that Washington Post ass Richard Cohen and Gawker. Glenn's crusade against The Politico—they're in bed with Matt Drudge (Mmm! Tasty!) and their barrier-to-print is too low and therefore error-full—has become a war against the shallow right-wing internets newspaper-destroying conspiracy of which we are a part! According to Glenn, there is a war on overseas! This is no time for "The Gawker cool guy" [Ed Note: Hasten Doree's gender transformation] to be shallow and petty about how The Politico is destroying everything the First Amendment holds dear. Cynicism is the end of us! Has he been to New York City lately? If he had, he would know just how seriously we in Manhattan take the permanent war of on terror.
In spotlight, 'fair taxers' push cause
Since 1999, a radical but intriguing plan to shred the patchwork-quilt federal income tax system in favor of a hefty national retail sales tax has languished in Congress. But as one of its champions, former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, emerges as a serious contender for the Republican presidential nomination, the so-called consumption tax has moved into the national political debate. That has energized a grass-roots movement looking to seize the moment for its cause. In the days before Thursday's Iowa caucuses, Americans for Fair Taxation has raised its profile, traveling around the Hawkeye State in a colorful bus, parking outside presidential candidate events, and handing out T-shirts and literature. Critics have long dismissed the consumption tax as a partisan nonstarter (of 71 sponsors in a Democratic-controlled Congress, 70 are Republicans), and contend its marketing understates its cost and potential side effects.
Senate Bill 1959 to Criminalize Thoughts, Blogs, Books and Free Speech ...
Paul has a weak, at best, stance on environmental issues, and denies the basic civil rights to some minorities including the GLBT community. How can we have a president who should act as an instrument of peace and justice and freedom for ALL, when he singles out some groups.

One thing that jumped out at me was the following definition copy/pasted from the bill itself:
Violent radicalization.The term violent radicalization means the process of adopting or promoting an extremist belief system for the purpose of facilitating ideologically based violence to advance political, religious, or social change.
To me, this means that the bill itself is in violation of itself.
Currently we have a belief system that allows us to be able to speak out about what ever or whom ever we like.
