Okay, I don't think I'm the first person to Fave this, but this blog is too funny for me not to share with everyone... Did you know that the nacho, the margarita, and boxed macaroni and cheese are all younger than John McCain?
Quoted: Things younger than Republican Presidential candidate (oh, and did I forget to mention war hero?) John McCain.

Good point
Quoted: From my perspective, watching alone from a hotel in Florida, I found it refreshing to have a political candidate who finally talks to us as mature adults and also appeals to what Lincoln called “the better angels of our nature.”

We have become so accustomed to political “leaders” who treat us like children, spoon feeding us with platitudes and playing upon our prejudices, that we forget what it is like to have a serious conversation about our challenges as a people.

Topic: The Internets are making us stupid. Discuss...on the Internets.
Quoted: I don't like that Rush Limbaugh listeners call themselves "dittoheads." It's funny, but it's kind of horrible. Fox News is a self-identified conservative outlet. The more extreme elements on the left treat their fellow citizens as if they're idiots, or as if they're rich people who don't care about anybody. So, I look at some of our culture, I see demonization, and I think, where does that come from?

Agreed. To be clear, I think he could make a good president. I just don't have enough information yet.
Quoted: join the dialog and be specific. the time of big rahrah 'born in a town called hope' speaches is way past. if you want younger voters, you better talk to them and with them. hold the paper up and talk about how different the world will be with you and ask for their input in many ways. point to policy ideas and discussions that came from your participation in the blog world.

Excellent article! Begins by examining the competing economic viewpoints in the Democratic Party- personified by Bob (Reich) and Bob (Rubin)- and goes on from there.

Quoted: "a country’s health can’t be measured simply by its economic output. That output, he said, “counts special locks for our doors and the jails for those who break them” but not “the health of our children, the quality of their education or the joy of their play.” .... The current concerns about the state of the planet, he said, required something of a paradigm shift for economics. If we don’t make serious changes soon, probably in the next 10 or 15 years, we may find that it’s too late. - btreloar - 3 days ago2 FaversViewed: 3 Times
