A note to our readers

Hey --


Another Sunday.  First, 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?


One for The Daily Beast which was one of the few outlets to grasp that there was no deal.
Barack's targeting of Venezuela isn't surprising.  The silence from so many on the left is surprising.
Saddam's hometown is 'liberated' by Shi'ite militias who quickly burn and loot the city.  And we're supposed to pretend this wasn't warned against or predicted?
I (Jim) haven't seen Daredevil.  But reading Ava and C.I.'s review really makes me want to.  If they're right, this is going to be event viewing.
No deal, despite the lies of so many.
Ayad Allawi.
We watched her speak on the video to get the screen snap.  None of us had seen her at that appearance before we streamed it today.  We were shocked by how bad she looked and how much make up she was wearing.
Short feature!
Kenneth Roth of Human Rights Watch.
So they fix the error we pointed out last week but fail to note that they've done a correction.  Way to go, Mary Sue!


Short feature!
What we listened to while writing this edition.
ACLU press release.
Repost from UK Socialist Worker. 
Press release from Michigan's Green Party.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.




Peace.
