DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Douglas Johnson

Caroline Lucas - explains her vision for the Green Party.

Splintered Sunrise - Is Sarah Palin a closet supporter of Alaskan Independence? Now, that should matter more than her daughter’s pregnancy…

Feministing - Although, that matters; insomuch as Palin clearly feels her daughter should have a choice, but not other women.

Sandy Rosenthal - New Orleanians are not afraid of Gustav. They fear the failure of the federal levees.

Huffington Post - Palin’s polls, meanwhile, do not look wonderful. Perhaps a natural consequence of appearing to pick a VP to break the DNC’s hold on headlines for a week rather than run the country.

Tory Troll - Boris talks whiff-whaff.

Tygerland - brings us the Ann Coulter song.

Oh look, Brown and Darling to pump something in the region of 5-6% of all energy company profits in the UK (rough estimate) in to helping the middle classes out of a rut and re-allocating some of that £200m a year they’re thieving from social housing back in to social housing…isn’t it clear enough already now that Compass are fighting a lost cause when it comes to making this government realise they should give a shit about the poor?


Reactions: Twitter, blogs
