Liberal Stance: Top Five

Liberal Stance

But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal." --John F. Kennedy

Top Five

A quick rundown of the posts I have read during my travels around the series of tubes,.

- The Nation: What's up with Republican politicos getting arrested by undercover cops for soliciting sex in public restrooms?

- Think Progress: As always, Ari Fleischer is full of it.

- Crooks & Liars: Conservative activist and past this prime rocker Theodore "Ted" Nugent is a filthy draft dodger.
Except when it was time to register for the draft during the Vietnam era. By his own admission, Nugent stopped all forms of personal hygiene for a month and showed up for his draft board physical in pants caked with his own urine and feces, winning a deferment. Creative!
- Swing State Project: Democratic State Treasurer of Louisiana John Kennedy turned possible Republican Senate candidate is full of it.

- Foul Balls: Chicago Bear linebacker Lance Briggs might be in the market for a new car, yet again.
