Steven Soderbergh Has One More Che Guevara Movie in Mind
FirstShowing.net (Free subscription) | 01/10/2008

Racism in Magic Valley Again
The MountainGoat Report (Free subscription) | 12 hours ago
... Holy cow, you would not believe the murals, uh, de-depicting, depicting Obama to be this messianic Che Guevara all over the slums, and in people's windows and posters and bumper stickers on their car. Those people could not tell you where Iran is or anything about our, um, economy. They just see him as a messiah. So we can shine the light of truth on Obama as much as we want and it's not...

Guilt by Radical Association
Fore Left! (Free subscription) | 04/10/2008
