George Bush in Just Six Words

http://www.democracyctr.org/blog/2009/01/george-bush-in-just-six-words.h...

"Blog From Bolivia" is written by a leftie, big-government American expat who lives in a town called Cochabamba.  Although I almost never agree with his take on things, he does provide the news.  (My wife is from Bolivia, hence the interest).  A few months ago he asked the readers to describe Bolivia in exactly six words.  It was actually a lot of fun to see what the readers came up with.

Promoting Liberty Conspiracy

I found the podcast through a review of an epidsode on some random blog I visited once. I've been listenting ever since (3+ months) and it's really great. I'd like to promote the podcast on my site more (riseuprochester.org), but I was wondering what the best way to do it would be. Perhaps someone could make a graphic that's a link to the iTunes podcast that could sit on my home page. I'd just do it myself, but I figured by posting the idea here others might do the same.

El Paso Mayor Vetoes Resolution Backing Legalizing Drugs

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/010608...

EL PASO, Texas – Concerns about the bloody drug war being fought just across the Mexican border led to a short-lived resolution Tuesday asking the federal government to consider legalizing drugs.

Mayor John Cook vetoed the resolution hours after it was unanimously approved by the City Council.

Beto O'Rourke, an El Paso city councilman, pushed the resolution that asked the U.S. government to start an "open, honest, national dialogue on ending the prohibition of narcotics."
