This story, via Atrios, is breathtaking:
FLORENCE, Ariz. — Thomas Warziniack was born in Minnesota and grew up in Georgia, but immigration authorities pronounced him an illegal immigrant from Russia.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement has held Warziniack for weeks in an Arizona detention facility with the aim of deporting him to a country he’s never seen. His [...]
Looks like crazy liberals (like myself I guess) werent the only one’s pissed off by the New York Times hiring Bill “Are you ever right?” Kristol. Today The New Republic has a piece by Gabriel Sherman that sheds some more light on things.
In summery: all the people who work at the Times, except for [...]
Some how over the holiday’s I missed the fact that known moron and neoconservative Bill Kristol had been hired by the NY Times to write a weekly column. Here’s Yglesias:

Less then 24 hours after a judge had thrown out a ban on gay marriage in Iowa Sean Fritz and Tim McQuillan, two college students, were married by a minister. To wit:

Jordan, my college roommate, left a comment in the previous post stating that the D.C. madam, Deborah Jeane Palfrey, is in fact a Rollins graduate, much like myself.
