  The Tennessee ConserVOLiance — Authority: 113
  Back on 3 Dec, I put up a post about the FCC and their game of hide and seek for the ‘field meeting’ that was suppose to be held today, but was changed to the 14th.

  The League of Ordinary Gentlemen — Authority: 682
  Well, this is the trajectory of the modern Christian right.  Its leaders have signed this declaration , further entwining religion and politics, and further entrenching the culture wars in the useless “us against them” language that has proved so ineffective for so long.

  WesternFront America — Authority: 140
  The White House adorned itself with a giant red ribbon for World Aids Day. Will there be a Christmas wreath this large placed on the front of the White House? If I was a bookie, Id start a betting pool as to whether or not Obama will be able to say the name Jesus at the tree lighting ceremony.
