Twenty-three new RSS feeds from Reuters in the UK. 

NY Times: "Microsoft announced today that it will bestow on its shareholders a windfall totaling $75 billion." 

I listened to most of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity on AM radio today, driving from Santa Fe to El Paso. Sandy Berger sure gave them some ammo. After listening to them gloat for a total of three hours, in the end, I couldn't come up with a rebuttal. I agree with the caller who told Hannity the reason Berger did what he did is that he's a dishonest man. Exactly right. If you read this site during the Lewinsky scandal, or the Communication Decency Act, you'd know I won't go down the moral abyss with the Dems when they screw up. I think Clinton was every bit as corrupt and ineffective a President as Bush is. I don't buy the Limbaugh-Hannity idea that there's a great philosophical battle going on. That's a bunch of bullshit. Both parties are cut from the same corrupt cloth.  

Josh Marshall: "Why didn't Sandy Berger step aside from his advisory position for John Kerry some time ago?" 

Economist: Unix's founding fathers. 

How Peter Rukavina applied for and got DNC creds. 

Engadget: "Apple is now trying to convince everyone that there isn’t a 60GB iPod around the corner." 

How to dress the modern Convention Blogger? 

Jay Rosen to Alex Jones: "Do your homework."  

With all the lightning here in Santa Fe, I was wondering how I could take a picture that captured it. Chris Heilman figured it out. 

The Democratic Party's official convention blog. 

I'm reviewing all the convention blogger's sites, and surprisingly so far only one has asked for financial help to get to the convention (of course I might have missed one).  

Of course as soon as I wrote that, I found another.
