Grow Your Own...

I haven't looked at my newsreader in three days. I've been busy planning three gardens (ordering seeds, plotting paths, trying to find room for 38 tomato seedlings arriving May 15..) and getting ready for our trip to New Zealand. So, loyal readers, I apologize for my lack of posts in recent days. I will now attempt a marathon read-and-post session. Do not expect Pulitzer material, I'm just trying to catch up.
Orcinus on Fascist Hatemongering toward Liberals

Digby on new Bush tapes:

This man who pretends to feel such empathy for gays is the same man who ran on a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage, told James Byrd's family to take a hike, signed off on 150 plus executions without looking up from his gameboy and now claims that the constitution gives him the total power to order torture and execution in the name of the War On Terror.

This goes beyond hypocrisy. It's downright pathological. The Republican coalition consists of a racists, homophobes, dupes and the rich selfish bastards who tell them whatever they want to hear in order to get elected. I hope their religion is real because if it is they are all going to spend eternity in the ninth circle of hell.

What to do with the digital video camera your parents got you so you could send them video of their grandchild: Use it to document your kid's participation in anti-war activism to support his future Conscientious Objector claim.

More soon...
