Daily Links for January 29th

  • The South Vs. Obama – The Daily Beast – The votes against Obama’s stimulus package came from a southern confederacy of Republicans and conservative Democrats. Their message to America? Drop dead.
  • Philadelphia Magazine: 1978 Called.

In his "Suburban Manifesto" column in this Sunday's Inky (amusingly filed under Philly Women), he starts off predictably, stating that the editorial page is "[too] liberal too often", and that he is in not a "Kool-Aid drinker".
