But remember, his crime was not as hateful as George Tiller’s executioner’s: Also Wednesday, The Associated Press, also citing an unnamed official, said some of the sites searched and mapped out on Google were Jewish organizations, a child care center, a Baptist church, a post office and military recruiting centers in the southeastern U.S. and New York and Philadelphia.

“Secured Debtholders” [Dan Collins]
Late Sunday, U.S. Judge Arthur Gonzalez, the bankruptcy judge overseeing Chrysler’s case, issued a ruling approving the sale following three marathon days of testimony and arguments. Gonzalez also ruled that the funds do not have standing to challenge the use of TARP money because they will receive their fair share of the $2 billion set aside for secured debtholders, which is more than they would have received if Chrysler had

Unbiased Science in the Age of Obama [Dan Collins]
Terrific article about what NASA and other agencies aren’t telling us about the correlation between solar activity and climate change. Hmmmm. I think the administration might have to step in to impose more regulation. Progress: administration keeps online transparency pledge.
Hate-F*ckGate [Dan Collins]

Dirty Dick Durbin [Dan Collins]
Had info disturbin’: In other words, Senator Dick Durbin has had since November some very significant corroborating evidence that Governor Rod Blagojevich really was corruptly auctioning off a Senate seat. This is information that would have been very helpful when it came to the timing of Blagojevich’s impeachment, seating Burris, and/or fixing the entire problem with a special election. And yet, Durbin did or said nothing.
