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.

We thank them all. What did we come up with?


Heidi Boghosian gets a truest.
Bob Somerby does as well.
This could have been a longer editorial but really, a longer editorial on the press reducing Iraq to less than a minute of 'coverage'?  

Ava and C.I.'s instant classic lets you know that not only is The Awesomes anything but, the fact that it is so awful may say something about Seth Meyers and his planned stint (starting next February) as the host of NBC's Late Night with Seth Meyers.
Dona takes a look at a Senate hearing with Ann, Cedric, Wally, Kat, Ava and C.I.
Dona found the photo.  What could we do with it?  Rebecca wondered "steal this look" and we thought about that but Ava and C.I. said "Yes, to the dress!"  We weren't aware of what that meant.  It's a reality show.  So have Susan Rice be the host of her own little reality show.
"Victory for Bradley Manning"?  When he's convicted of 20 out of 22 charges?  Ay-yi-yi.
We found this and thought, "How typical."  On another week, it would be a much longer piece.

Senator Murray press release.
Repost from Workers World.
Senator Murray press release.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it. 


We'll see you next week.




Peace.

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