Incidentally, I googled "bleeding heart liberal" out of curiousity. #4 on the list was this astonishing Best of Craig's list posting.
I love this list! All of it!
ReplyDelete(ok, to be honest, I'm not a fan of number 10, but I have lot of friends in entertainment and publishing who make a living this way. And they buy me wine. :))
Excellent... and I love the countdown clock in your sidebar as well.
ReplyDeleteNot sure how to respond to the craigslist post, though.
We'll have to agree to agree on most of those items, especially the first one. I applaud the Court for having the courage to make the right decision. I live for the day that other piece of judicial fiction, nonsense, garbage is overturned.
ReplyDeleteHey, it's America and we can have divergent opinions. Rocks, doesn't it?
Yes, I am a lawyer. I don't just play one on tv.
I adore bleeding heart liberals. :)
