What Change Looks Like

Change looks like this:
Not a bad first day's work...

What's it all about, Normie? Give it up already so that the people of Minnesota can have two senators...

Boston icicles:


The photographer (my son who lives in Boston) tells me that the icicles are "pointing down, but the width of them at the top of the picture is how wide the drain itself is. Anything wider than that is ice freezing on ice..."

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em in the most superficially possible way. The thing is, where are the Republican going to find another Barack Obama?...

ESPN's Keith Law ranks the major league farm systems. RGG, the future is so bright for the Texas Rangers that you gotta wear shades. Not that you don't have to wear them anyway down there in Cowtown...

In this picture, the French Quarter looks like a quiet Irish town...

Blogging while listening to Aretha Franklin's Rare & Unreleased Recordings from the Golden Reign of the Queen of Soul is the way to go. Why this got such mixed reviews upon release is a mystery to me: It's a gem...

Great post! Isn't he something!! Now that's what I call a super productive day! I've been following much of it on MSNBC. Have to admit, I missed my TV the past few days! Thanks for all the info!

I'll be interested to see whether Bush and Cheney or some front organization fights the first effort to get their papers. Of course, maybe they've already burned anything incriminating.

It's so great to have an intelligent adult with strong work ethics in the White House for a change.

BTW, thanks for the Newsweek link. I enjoyed the article and agreed with this point:

But effectively adopting language relies on political credibility. Luntz argues that politicians can't just borrow Obama's phrases about organizing communities if they aren't able to back up their words with deeds.

Republicans just don't understand that it's not enough to talk the talk.
