ReadRight Overflow: 300 Blogs a Day

I track about 300 blogs a day via Google Reader (If you don't have it, get it.) using a customized interface. Most of the time, items that I think are worthy or interesting are posted in the ReadRight sidebar. Today, my capture buffer overfloweth... hence the following.

• The Anglo-American Interregnum:

  "Said Interregnum, which we are of course still in, has been a period of global monotonic decline in official authority. As in the late Roman period, declining official authority, declining personal morality, and increasing public bureaucracy are observed in synchrony. This is not in any way a coincidence. The combination is an infallible symptom of the great terminal disease of the polity - leftism. Leftism is cancer. At least in its present adult, sclerotic and non-fulminating form, it is extremely slow in its progress, but the end is not in doubt."- Unqualified Reservations: Patchwork: a positive vision (part 1)

• NATO For Sale "Red Storm Rising," the Remake.

• Belmont Club » If no intent, why the capability? "Some will argue that neither the West nor Israel have anything to worry about so long as it "reaches out" to Teheran; so long as it keeps the Ayatollahs happy. The problem with relying on pure diplomacy while allowing Iran to acquire an offensive capability is that if diplomacy fails, it fails catastrophically."

• Overly-Convenient Narrative: "A bullshit narrative tends to be more believable than regular bullshit, because whereas regular bullshit meanders randomly toward and away-from what’s true, the OCN narrative is formed around a kernel of truth." - House of Eratosthenes (4 years old today)

• Hiroshima: The Lost Photographs @ Design Observer

  One rainy night eight years ago, in Watertown, Massachusetts, a man was taking his dog for a walk. On the curb, in front of a neighbor’s house, he spotted a pile of trash: old mattresses, cardboard boxes, a few broken lamps. Amidst the garbage he caught sight of a battered suitcase. He bent down, turned the case on its side and popped the clasps.

• They're (sigh) back. Return Of The Girly Men

• bioephemera : That ain't really mist, is it?

• Unqualified Reservations: Barack Obama America's new anchorman

  "The past relationship between Barack Obama and America's most dangerous and powerful nest of murderous political psychopaths, the so-called "progressive" movement, is not of any practical importance for the future. Basically, they thought they were using him, whereas in fact he was using them. It is never too hard to con a progressive."

• Claim: 'Chris Matthews Once Put a Potato in a Blond Wig at His Desk For A Week and No One Noticed' @ The New York Observer

• International Con Man Barack Obama Leaves U.S. With $85 Million In Campaign Fundraising "I'm devastated," Pennsylvania resident and Obama donor Denise Bell told reporters. "I just hope he comes back soon so he can be our president."

"Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him." "A seven-page questionnaire being sent by the office of President-elect Barack Obama to those seeking cabinet and other high-ranking posts may be the most extensive — some say invasive — application ever."
