Howdy. I'm having a discussion on facebook, with a teabagger cousin of mine, about Media Matters' article choosing Glenn Beck as misinformer of the year. He claims the article has no facts and doesn't back up it's claims with "references" like Beck does. He wants me to go through and provide "references" for him. I might do one better, I might provide evidence.

Anyway, I might spend the weekend googling for more to show him, but I was wondering if anyone has come across any more articles with evidence proving Beck to be nothing but the lunatic conspiracy theorist that he is. It probably won't do much good influencing my cousin, he's already too far gone, but maybe it's worth a shot?

Thanks for your help. :]

The reconciliation bill only needs majorities to pass. Therefore, the leadership can stick a public option and Medicare expansion in Lieberman's eyes, if it wants. We don't need his vote anymore, am I right?

I am part of a multi-fandom RPG game, plentyofroom (I play Kate Austen) and we're in need of some more LOSTies! A couple people specifically mentioned wanting a Sawyer in the game, but any and all LOST characters would be more than welcome. I've put the info about the game under the cut:

( Welcome to the Hotel California )

Title: Days of Becoming, Chapter 41: “Spending Our Days Waiting for Tomorrow”
Author: Talktooloose
’Verse: X-Men movieverse
Betas: mofic and lux_apollo. It needed to stand on its own.
Disclaimers: Marvel and 20th Century own the X-Men, I own my original characters. The People own the Internet.

Series Summary: This novel focuses mainly on the paths Iceman and Pyro take on their way to adulthood and how they discover and deal with their love for each other. It is a novel about what Joni Mitchell calls ”the dream's malfunction” and how we can learn to make our own dreams when our heroes fail us. Other X characters (including ones from comicverse and elsewhere) and OC's play prominent roles and the action begins before X1, continues through the events of X2 and X3 and concludes in the aftermath of that movie. This novel does not take X-Men Origins: Wolverine as canon.

Previously in Days of Becoming: Bobby and John are holed up secretly in a San Francisco hotel while John recovers from his concussion (having been aided by an old healer named Caducea). John plans to leave as soon as he's well. Bobby hopes his money holds out that long and that he can somehow convince John to stay with him. Meanwhile back at the mansion, Kitty has developed an interesting nascent relationship with Warren Worthington III. Charles Xavier, in a new body has returned from Scotland. Will he be able to resume the life he had?

I LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU. Please use the comments link at the end of the chapter to bring you back here or drop me email to talktooloose CAT toothdemon FRAUGHT net. That oughta fool the spambots for now.

Here's the chapter!
