Sit Back and Relax

Here are a couple of links to entertain you on a Sunday evening. You've probably seen the first one already, but if you haven't, take a look now. Keith Olbermann is even more outspoken than usual, and although his Thursday night commentary has been getting some notice, it seems mostly of the acknowledgment and moving on variety. Is it the elephant in the room no one wants to notice, or is it at this point such an obvious observation that the reaction is, "Yeah, and?" Regardless, Olbermann has come up with the line of the week, something I can't stop laughing at, even though I can't quite tell you why: "You’re a fascist — get them to print you a t-shirt with 'fascist' on it!"

The second link is a Mark Fiore flash cartoon that went online before the House took on the administration. Snuggly the Security Bear explains why the Protect America Act (the actual name of the surveillance legislation that's been all the rage lately) is vital to our emotional well-being (not to mention saving us from the terrorists). Do you think we should reconsider our opposition?
