Some interesting commentary

The breakfast conversation this morning briefly touched on politics/politicians and the question of can this country ever be taken back/governed again by the people and not giant corporate interests. I think not, and not because I am being a pessismist out of hand, but beacause it just seems that there are underlying social conditions that will not change (the influence of television and the complete failure of the public education system are a couple of examples).

Anyway - here are links to a couple of recent things that while maybe not addressing the issue directly have influenced the the way I think about it:

Unbelievable... from Riverbend and Goodbye Columbus from Billmon (the Whiskey Bar).
