Quick News, Silly Pictures and Open Thread (With Quick Wednesday morning update)

Well, shut my mouth (update): Freyne says he didn't make the blogger BBQ, not because it wasn't worthy, but because the World Cup finals were on. Fair enough! I rescind my yellow card.

Over at the Dorian Grays, Tarrant earns himself a new blemish with his latest web-based attack that calls Bernie a "liar" in particularly desperate fashion. This guy's internal polling must just be in the toilet to be going so sleazy so fast. In any event, at this rate his picture will be unrecognizable by Election Day.

An excellent op-ed reprinted in the Rutland Herald by Thomas Mann and Norman Ornstein about Bush's unlimited grab for power, focusing on the Hamdan case - while Kagro X's diary at dKos brings us crashing back to Earth reflecting on the continued impotence of every other civil institution to rein him in, regardless of a simple Supreme Court decision.

The definitive blogger BBQ post is at Vermont Daily Briefing, although a lot of the major Vermont blogs have good stuff about it (I like Haik's fun-house style pix). Lots of folks got pictures and have posted them, but I was too much of a loser to bring a camera. A participant (Anita) was kind enough to cc me the three pics she sent to Philip, but just reprinting them here as my own would be tacky. I've tried to spice them up to make them my own, though. Click on the link if your curious, but don't expect much...
