All else will probably have to save these for the weekend. Which is a shame as they are all excellent reads.
First up, is Xavier’s piece titled “An Encounter at WalMart”. Keeping your eyes and ears open for danger is a Good Thing. Hope that you never need to do what he had to. Found via Sailor Curt.
Next up, I keep reading trashings of Jonah Goldberg’s book “Liberal Fascism” by the leftosphere. They’ve gotten nothing but worse and less coherent as the book has risen up the NYT Top Ten book listing (currently holding the #1 spot).
Geek w/a .45 does a very open minded, though not so open that his brain falls out, “Initial Thoughts” review of the book here. It explains why the leftists hate this book very well: It teaches them the truth about the world’s “liberal” and “progressive” histories, and they don’t like what they read because it tarnishes the finish of their silver plated prior teachings.
Lastly, and as Kevin puts it “Short Attention Spans Need Not Apply”, Sir Smallest Minority pounds out a 13,000 word primer on the history of the Second Amendment. Grab a couple cold ones. It took me over an hour to read it.
But, I’m thinking of cutting and pasting it into Word and printing it out to had out to friends.
Thanks for slogging through it. It took me about twelve hours to write it.
Well, thank you for those twelve hours, Kevin. My 90 minutes or so was noting.
