Through a glass darkly

By Libby

I have a really busy day today so I'm giving you the links and you'll have to supply your own analysis.

Bill Kristol makes his debut at the NYT today. I hope the Grey Lady has the good grace to be embarrassed by this tripe.

The effects of expensive gas. People are driving less reducing pollution and demand. Accident deaths are diminishing. All good. Revenues from federal taxes for highway and bridge maintenence are down. Not good.

McCain is a clueless dork and a liar and his latest campaign tactics show us just how petty and mean a person he really is.

All you highest common denominator readers already know the surge was not a success really. Now how do we get the talking heads to figure out that nobody loves a wall.

I hate to link to the AP but I have no time to find the source for this. Some 22,000 vets called a suicide hotline. Thankfully it prevented some suicides. I worry about happens to those who didn't call though.

And finally if you got through all that, you could probably use some awesome photos of Jupiter to take the bad taste out of your brain. [via]
