Heads up!

I really should stop reading editorials because they have a tendency to upset me, but I have found some that I think everyone would be interested in, so I have included them.

Enlightening the stupid, God-fearing Georgia redneck. Trust me, that is sarcasm, it's really an interesting editorial about the treatment of deeply held religious beliefs on liberal campuses. And speaking of religion, here's an article about nature-worship being anti-thetical to reason. And, while we're on the subject of religion, an editorial about religious 'retards' (it's actually a satire and quite funny - well worth your time - plus there's a great comment at the end about the author: "he plans to raise Cain as long as he is Abel.").

Preschool politics. This is one that I agree with completely. I think that what has been coming out of Washington lately is atrocious and absurd.

This one has the funniest line I've read in a while: "The bipartisan divide exists because those chromosomally damaged right-wingers aren't going away until we find a cure." If anyone read the NY Times article saying that some political beliefs may be in our genes, you'll understand why I think this is funny (he describes that and some other stuff in this editorial).

Wow. This is one scathing commentary on stem cell research. I'm not sure I had ever heard much less made this analogy myself.

I retract just about every Guantanamo comment I've ever made. I apparently don't know enough about it to make any comments. So, I have included three editorials by persons who seem to know more about it than I do (disclaimer: I don't necessarily buy into any of these - especially Ann Coulter's).

Ok, sorry to burden you with all this reading (I just found this great site with all these great editorials and I thought I'd pass them along), but most of what I have included really is worth your time and includes many interesting views as well (feel free to pick and choose, I think I did an ok job of describing what each is about). Enjoy!

Mike Adams is one of my favorites! Thanks for the round-up of must reads.

It is entirely possible that no one reads my comments to my own posts, but I couldn't think of a better place to put this, so I thought I'd add it in here. Rove speech exposes fundamental split
. This is pretty good editorial on what I have identified as 'preschool politics' and it includes some interesting comments on the liberal media (I really don't like Michael Moore).
