A note to our readers

Hey --
Another Sunday.

First up, we thank all who participated this edition which includes Dallas and the following:

The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Ruth of Ruth's Report,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.


What did we come up with?

Glen Ford. No, we didn't mean for words to be underlined. The whole thing messed up. If links don't work, use the link to Ford's article at BAR (which you should anyway to read the article in full).
Howard Dean on Nouri al-Maliki.


Technical issues and other things ended up putting us behind. We had already agreed that we'd use this piece C.I. wrote somewhere. Dona's the one who decided to make it an editorial.

Ava and C.I. praise Revenge again and take on the Water Cooler Set.

When so much was falling apart this edition, I (Jim) mentioned how much I enjoyed the third season of The Bionic Woman on DVD which led to us b.s.-ing about our favorite super hero TV shows which eventually led to this article.

We sample two kinds of snacks.

This may be it for Diane Rehm. Ann is sick of the show (we don't blame her). So she joins Ava and C.I. for a 10 month look.

A UN diplomat is supposed to conduct themselves in a diplomatic manner.

Press release from Senator Patty Murray's office.

Repost from Workers World.

Press release from Senator Patty Murray's office.

Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.





That's it for this week.


Peace.

-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
