So if you look off to the left side of the blog there, you'll see my shared Google Reader items. But you know what I just noticed? My snazzy, snarky comments don't appear. Which is a shame, because that's the best part -- my opinions. So if you want to see what I think, either click on "Read More" at the bottom of the box, which will take you here, or just start using Google Reader and be my Google friend already.
I only mention this because my most recently shared item is for Republicans for Single-Payer Universal Healthcare, and I didn't want anyone to think, by seeing that link without my comment, that I am a republican in support of universal healthcare. Au contraire. I am about as liberal as they come, but this guy is right; universal healthcare is a bipartisan issue.
And, while I'm at it, I had to re-share from my shared items this bit of commentary on Sarah Palin's pregnant daughter: In the Slate article Do as We Do, writer Linda Hirshman shares this about Palin's son-in-law-to-be: "In the one part of the MySpace site about children, prospective father Levi Johnston wrote, 'I don't want kids.'"
That says it all.

"That says it all."
What does it say?
I think when a 17-year-old guy posts on the Internet that he doesn't want kids, you have to take reports that his 17-year-old girlfriend is pregnant and they are planning to get married and everything is hunky-dory with a grain of salt -- the everything being hunky-dory part, that is.
It's sad. It makes me wonder about what happened behind closed doors, how the decision to have the baby and get married was reached. I don't particularly care about it from a political standpoint, but I have to think Palin's political career played a part in all of it, which is also sad.
