THE GREY LADY: taking the ‘new’ out of news.

Linked from Instapundit.
DEATH OF THE POSTMODERN DREAM: “Bankruptcy, not politics, is the final arbiter ....”

Read it all.
SOME INTERESTING COMMENTS on the meaning of “ObamaCare”. If you’re in favor of health care reform, how can it be pejorative?

Instapundit notices, too.
A NEW LOW: Obama’s Presidential Approval Index, as tracked by Rasmussen Reports, has dropped to a new low of -22 today.


Gulf oil spill, perhaps?
BLACK PANTHER REDUX. A trial attorney with the Department of Justice’s Voting Rights Section has resigned, citing concerns about the government’s refusal to prosecute a case involving voter intimidation by the New Black Panther Party.

I would like to believe this won’t be swept under the rug, but it will.
SEX LIVES of Supreme Court justices. Some people have way too much time on their hands.
HOW LONG does the Most Transparent Administration Ever plan to play dodgeball with the public?

As long as it takes to gain full control of the country.
OIL SPILL INSIGHTS from a retired manager of an offshore underwater service company. A clear and concise description of the technical aspects of deep-water drilling.

And a bit of an odd post, as well, since from the comments and other posts the Oil Drum appears to be something of an "environmental survivalist" web site.
