Potpourri for 500

1. Noli Irritare Leones does the part of the Wikileaks story that's not about Assange.
2. Shark-fu flays the No Labels movement at Angry Black Bitch.

   Anyhoo, all of these examples contain a common thread…getting along and doing “something” tends to require fucking one group or another over.
   
   And that is the giant unsaid in this newish No Labels movement – who among us will get fucked over in the name of civility.

3. Via Shakesville, Kate Harding on the contortions around the Assange rape charges.
4. Via The Sideshow, the history of marijuana criminalization at DrugWarRant.
5. Jill at Brilliant at Breakfast has a selection of Stan Freberg commercials!  (I've mentioned him before.)
6. Anna Van Z at Mills River Progressive has one post commemorating this anniversary of powered flight and another (somewhat rude and not for puritanical workplaces) exhibiting contempt of Congress.  I mean Congress's contempt for non-lobbying constituents, of course.  (She got it from Father Tyme.)
