Bad ass, no?

Blogojevich, whining Republicans, errant bird attacks, artic chill, a stimulus package, and an Inauguration have all clutivated into this Weekly Blog Digest. We live in a strange times when Democrats have won a majority in this nation, yet Republicans still reign supreme and someone with a name like Boehner is making jokes about stimulus packages.

Welcome to the United States of America.

From Daily Intel: Senator Schumer wants a posse.

From Talking Points Memo: All the good, liberal things in the stimulus package. We seem to forget that this bill is not entirely evil and not entirely corrupted by Republican. Take, for example, the massive funding for eduction!

From Slate: Answering the great questions of our day: Why are there so many brawls at karaoke bars?

From The Huffington Post: PARTY AT W.H. 7:30!!!!!!!11!!!1!!! THEME: STIMULUS HOES AND TAX CUT BROS

From The Huffington Post: Al Gore.

From Indexed: A pictoral explanation of the inauguration.

From KANYE WEST: Kanye West reports in from Paris fashion shows… AMAZING (Video)

From Salon: The Obama Administration enters a White House technologically equipped for the Carter Administration.

From Lifehacker: the most ticketed cars on the road.

From Youtube: Watch this.

I do not want to seem like I am stepping on Ariel’s toes with posting this video. I found this on the Kanye West blog. I do not know what the message is. I do not know why it was made. I just know that this embodies many things I love about The World, The United States of America, and Kanye West.

Enjoy.

Barack Obama and General Petraeus over Baghdad… read (BAMFs)

Barack Obama is in Iraq – Al Gore wants 100% renewable energy in 10 years – According to John McCain…. both Iran and Afghanistan have disappeared….

~ From Michigan Liberal: our fearless leader, Jennifer Granholm, not only braves the streets of Lansing to bike to work, but now she has been photographed riding the bus to work at the Romney building.

~ From Talking Points Memo: Why al-Maliki’s endorsement of Obama’s 16 month troop withdrawal plan is a big deal. A contributor writes a long piece explaining why Al Gore is correct, which I already knew. TPM is also posting cute pictures of Josh Marshall’s, the blog’s owner, young child.

~ From the Politico: World Hot Spot hotness helps Obama. Also, those massive fundraising numbers last month for Obama were due in part to his massive one day haul… a $25 million dollar haul.

~ From Kanye: He bought a new backpack.

~ From the Huffington Post: first John McCain expounds on how Russia is abusing Czechoslovakia, which is hard since it has not existed since 1993. Secondly, McCain rearranges Central Asia even before entering office.

~ From the Harvard Dems: a passionate Harvard undergrad sounds off against McCain’s stance on school vouchers and school of choice. Also from Harvard…. the best campaign site EVER.

~ From UCLA Dems: a video I saw on John Stewart…. I would vote for this Republican just because of this.
