Yesterday I fell further behind, because I co-facilitate a therapy group for former prisoners, so I have two of comments needing replies and visits needing to be returned.  I’ll get on that today.

Jig Zone Puzzle:

Today it took me 4:10.  To do it click here.  How did you do?

Fantasy Football:

Tonight is the first game of the regular season.  Players, check your line-ups.

From Politico: Spending by conservative third-party organizations surged in August, as Republican-aligned groups plunged millions of dollars into key Senate races, potentially neutralizing the strong financial advantage Democrats have enjoyed this campaign season.

Republicans have no shortage of corporate campaign cash.  They’re just end-running it around Michael Steele.

From Right Wing Watch: In February, four Religious Right activists in Michigan – Levon Yuille, Rene Ouellette, James Combs, and Gary Glenn, president of the American Family Association of Michigan – represented by the Thomas More Law Center filed suit against Attorney General Eric Holder over the Shepard-Byrd Hate Crimes Prevention Act, claiming that protection for gays "creates a special class of persons who are ‘more equal than others’ based on nothing more than deviant, sexual behavior."

Yesterday, U.S. District Judge Thomas L. Ludington dismissed the suit.

A win for our LGBT friends. 🙂

From Crooks and Liars: Why to vote.

People who do not vote deserve Republican government.

  1. And they (the Repubs) are using it. Latest polls show a dead heat between Rs and Ds.

    Another win for our LGBT friends! Woo-hoo!

    See, I’m making good use of the emoticons. 😀
