Unless otherwise noted, we picked all highlights.
"Iraq snapshot" -- Most requested highlight of the week. We may repost this here. It's C.I. covering the Friday Iraq protests.
"Kat's Korner: Radiohead, I'm going to need a cigarette" -- Kat's latest album review and it went up this morning.
"I Hate The War" -- C.I. digs into the e-mails for this popular one from last week.
"Wisconsin and Iraq" and "Oil" -- Trina talks the basics.
"Miko" -- At last we learn, yes, Betinna is alive and Miko is helping or her -- or we think Miko is helping her.
"Talk of the Nation" -- Ann explains she's done with Talk of the Nation, thank you very much.
"david thomson's an idiot" -- If you don't know Cactus Flower and you're a film reviewer should you really be reviewing a remake and should you not be aware you're reviewing a remake?
"Sexist Ray McGovern can't stop lying" -- Ruth calls out Crazy Ass Ray.
"Shame on the White House" -- Kat notes that the White House has no statement re: Iraq protests.
"Chris Hedges" -- Kat quotes Hedges and weighs in on the state of the internet herself.
"The Scar," "Date Night" and "You Again?" -- Stan and Marcia go to the movies.
"Breaking the No Ordinary Family code?," "Raising Hope," "Sexist Tina Fey," "Fringe, Leonard Pitts and more" and "Site warning" -- Stan, Ruth, Kat and Mike cover TV.
"Pathetic ZNet and lying Glenn Greenwald" -- Elaine calls out disgusting Glenn-Glenn. If we had the time, we'd do a feature on him (just to use C.I.'s hilarious one-liner when Rebecca proposed we write about Glenn-Glenn this edition).
"Spineless" -- Isaiah dips into the archives to revist the collapsable Dems.
"Don't call that the Motor City" & "THIS JUST IN! A WHOLE LOT OF FAKE ASS GOING ON!" and "Sheryl Crowe, get your tired ass of the stage" -- though big fans of Motwon, Cedric, Wally and Marcia are not fans of FauxTown.
"My pathetic political party" -- Ann notes how ineffective her political party is nationally.
"Jim Lobe and other friends of rapists" -- Betty calls out the Nir Rosen spinners.
"guess what just popped up" -- this is becoming one of the most talked about posts of the week. What will they do? They haven't decided.
"THIS JUST IN! HE SURE KNOWS A LOT OF CROOKS!" & "Did any of his Chicago friends ever make an honest buck" -- Wally and Cedric point out that Bad Penny's back and Barack's got her.
