Cool news on a hot day

The New Yorker has a link to a Ron Paul groupie's interrogation by TSA over the money has was carrying from selling stuff at Paul events. The intrepid young man recorded the whole business on his cell phone.

The Conservativist has a link to Christina Jeffrey's campaign website's announcement Alan Keyes is coming to the Upstate to support her campaign. Keyes, who whiffed swings at the Republican and Constitution Party's presidential nominations before finding intellectual congress with George Wallace's American Independent Party, is also a Birther and won Savonarola's praise for being a eral conservative ( they share a penchant for vituperative homophobia as well). Now we know if Jeffrey wins the 4th district seat, we'll have our own, deep-fried, Michelle Bachman.

Anaconda is hoppin' mad about a Florida child-placement screw-up. "Two Florida children who should have been placed with their South Carolina relatives in 2007 were instead returned to their mother, a mentally-ill exotic dancer and “escort” with a history of alcoholism, drug abuse, violent behavior and a rap sheet a mile long - a woman who within months illegally tried to leave the state with the children and who just days ago was arrested yet again." Kids get results like that, or age out of foster care without ever having been adopted, but gay couples can't adopt them. Strange, the rituals of straight privilege.
