Following on from the previous green onion post, I've just had hamburger made with chopped green onion mixed in. If anything, an even bigger difference than with the lambburger, somehow. And good. Reminiscent of some dim sum.
Which I've belatedly found a source for in Bloomington. Not fresh, oh no. But Obo's in Eastland Plaza had some frozen varieties, at least ha gao (shrimp dumplings) and taro buns, and they're quick and decent, at least to a deprived palate.
Oh my, it's been a while, hasn't it. A bunch of this will be out of date. Oh well.
* Tea Party crazy
* The law behind the emergency room mandate, what I've called "our prior committment to universal health care, which we refuse to admit or pay for".
* 4chan teaches us how to say no to socialism
* David Frum, conservative thinker, on the conservative Waterloo. He's since been fired from his think tank.
* Alan Grayson pushes for Medicare buy-in. Here's the actual bill.
* Relative cost of the health care bill
* Somalis turn against the Shabab
* Map of congressional districts by health care vote
* Chuck "death panels" Grassley starts taking credit for parts of the bill.
* Law-and-economics judge Richard Posner admits the errors of the Chicago School of economics aka Milton Friedman.
* Just how bad John Yoo, Bush torture advocate, really was: village massacres, crushing the testicles of a child, okay
* Irish Catholic Church asks parishioners to help pay child abuse bills.
* Scott Brown (MA-R) using Rachel Maddow as a fundraising threat, despite her not running for Senate.
* McCain and Lieberman Propose Bill to Strip U.S. Citizens Suspected of Terrorism of All Rights
* GOP eliminationist rhetoric

It says that Yoo advised that it was within the President's Constitutional war powers, which is not the same thing as "okay." And, rather obviously if you read the history of World War II, it is within the President's Constitutional war powers ... unless you want to argue that FDR and Truman behaved unconstitutionally when they ordered the bombardment of German and Japanese cities?
