Wednesday Stuff

I thought this was a good report by Rachel Maddow on the legacy of the Confederate flag throughout the South and what it really tells us about that area of what passes for Western civilization (oh, and according to some numbskull named Bill Dorris, slavery was supposedly the first form of Social Security here – sure it was, you nematode)...



(Oh, and I have another message for the person(s) behind the web site of that supposedly liberal network MSNBC – where the hell is Chris Hayes' interview with Ari Berman over the Dems' introducing a bill in Congress to restore the Voting Rights Act? More is here, by the way.)

...but speaking of the host of “All In,” gee, I wonder if former DHS head Janet Napolitano and the author of that original report on right-wing terrorism are going to get an apology now? Don't hold your breath (and I'm sure law enforcement is taking the threat seriously too – I don't consider these characters to be down and out under any stretch of the imagination)...



...and speaking of racism (which I guess is the theme so far), Thom Hartmann tells us just what kind of a hold the Council for Conservative Citizens really has on Not Your Father's Republican Party (more here)...



...and the weather was really nice in these parts today, with much less humidity after the recent T-storms – kind of made me want to hear this song.
