Highlights

This piece is written by Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude, Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix, Kat of Kat's Korner, Betty of Thomas Friedman is a Great Man, Mike of Mikey Likes It!, Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz, Ruth of Ruth's Report, Marcia of SICKOFITRADLZ, Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends, Ann of Ann's Mega Dub and Wally of The Daily Jot. Unless otherwise noted, we picked all highlights.

The most requested highlight by readers of this site was not C.I.'s "I Hate The War" -- for the first time ever, we think. The most requested highlight was C.I.'s "Dumping The Political Voices of (faux) Women."

Isaiah's The World Today Just Nuts "Not A Clue" -- This is a great comic. And for the backstory, see Rebecca's "gulf, ted kennedy, fbi."

"Kat's Korner: Forget the plantation, who forgot to pack up the songs?" -- This is one of two album reviews by Kat going up today at The Common Ills. (The other is already written, it will go up later today.)

"Iraq snapshot" and "Iraq snapshot" -- C.I. reports on the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee hearing.



"Cucumber Salad in the Kitchen" -- Trina offers an easy summer recipe.

"And now I endorse Laura Welles for governor" -- Betty's pick for governor in the California race.

"trust the book, not the author" -- Rebecca captures an author making a fool of himself.


"Don't call him Keith Kos anymore!" -- divorces can be messy.

"Man's Favorite Sport?" -- Stan goes to the movies on Friday.


"Clarifing" -- We love it when Elaine can just barely contain how pissed off she actually is. (And we agree with her.)

"Idiot of the Week, Roy Gutman and more" -- Mike finds an idiot for the week and . . . it's . . .
himself! (We're not joking. He picked himself.) Also see his "Roy Gutman" for more on the e-mails he and Da Gut exchanged.

"THIS JUST IN! RECOVERY SUMMER HITS THE ROAD!" & "Tuning up for summer" -- How pathetic is the adminstration? Pretty damn pathetic.

"Lynne Stewart and Ralph Poynter," "NPR busts Thad Allen," "Brave Daniel Schorr?," "Barack flops and Queer Voices" -- radio coverage in the community from Ruth, Marcia, Elaine and Mike -- and don't forget Ann:



"Day 57" -- Betty on the Gulf Disaster.


"Barack Obama's Stepford Wives," "Cheryl Johnson, why didn't we listen to you?" -- Ruth and Marcia dig into the recent past to remind you of the warnings.



"Bob Etheridge belongs behind bars" -- Kat noted Bully Bob Etheridge belongs behind bars, not in Congress.

"E-mails" -- Stan covers e-mails.

"It's an honor just to win" and "THIS JUST IN! ACCEPTANCE SPEECH!" -- as is the case with any good acceptance speech, someone gets forgotten. Cedric and Wally note that they intended to thank Trina and apologize for the oversight.
