- And Michael Tomasky just says libertarians are wacko.
- Rent boy-hiring anti-gay pseudo-scholar George Rekers is a monster who performed sick "therapies" on children.
- Campbell Brown should run for Senate against either Kirstin Gillibrand or Chuck Schumer, according to a bored person and Bill Kristol.
- The Pennsylvania state attorney general who is issuing subpoenas to figure out who is being mean to him on Twitter claims to be doing so because of an ongoing criminal investigation.
