So much to do...I have a guest post up at Firedoglake and am in the comments right now.

Also go see my usual Cliff's Corner piece at Americablog where I am also lurking in the comments (multitasking my friends), and I will be hosting the Book Salon at Firedoglake this Sunday at 5PM EST..

You need to fix the link to your blog at Firedog

It needs a dot between 'schecter' and 'blogspot'.

How's the baby?

Cliff, I saw your post over at the Lake and thought you might be interested in reading this. He's a blogger from KY, the one the governor indicted for tax evasion after he had already paid the taxes. Kind of an interesting back story, that. Anyway he's talking about Geo. Clooney. I was actually thinking of maybe his dad Nick when I ran across this post.

Ed you are a trouble starter we know that. It's why we love you. You're not going to get me with 17. 13 or 14, we have a problem (let's throw in 15 for good measure).

I know they're a convenient target for O'Reilly and exaggerated as an enemy for his purposes.

But we must draw the line somewhere. And as a social libertarian, I try and draw it for everything, whether it be abortion rights, owning a hunting rifle, choosing to go fight in war or engaging in sexual relations, where there are consenting ADULTS. Now as I said at the opening, I am open to what the definition is (maybe 17 should be it), but I know 14 ain't it.

This will sometimes piss off those some of my friends on the left, but at least I am consistent across the issue spectrum.

And there you are entirely correct Ed. O'Reilly has blown them up (no pun intended) for his own vile purposes.

The Right 1) needs enemies to exist as it is based on resentment 2) projects many of their own desires onto the rest of us (see Ted Haggard, Newt Gingrich, Don Sherwood, 10K other Republicans and yes, Mr. O'Reilly).
