DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Jennie Rigg

Peter Black AM reports on Gordon Brown’s vandalism. Somebody give that man an ASBO!

Alas, a Blog! discusses the Olympics, and their impact on sexism/racism/ablism etc.

Brad Hicks knows why McCain picked Palin. Best post I have seen on this so far.

Moments of Clarity has a brilliant article about Faith Schools.

The Yorkshire Guidon is amused by Tory embarrassment with being Tory in Leeds.

And finally, Mark Pack has an amusing typo on Lib Dem voice (which the Greens among us might find slightly less amusing than me)

Jennie,

If it stacks up, I’d have thought Brad Hicks analysis was brilliant. In the sense that he makes a superb prosecution case, but what’s the defence?

I loved the quintissentially American quote, apparently from some guy called Bill Kristol, quoted in the comments:

She’s fantastic, yeah. She was the point guard on the Alaska state championship High School basketball team, in 1982. She could take Obama one-on-one. It’d be fantastic.

Fucks sake.

Douglas: I am not quite sure what you’re asking me?

Jennie,

Sorry. I wasn’t actually asking you anything. I was just saying that I thought that Brad Hicks piece was excellent and I hoped he could back it up. The rest was just comment on his comments. Good pick though!
