Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:

 
Supposedly Bankrupt Greek Government to Reward Pedophiles with Disability Payments ~ And thanks to the IMF bailout, we get to help. The insanity continues.
 
Tea Partiers owed an apology for political Tucson narrative ~ Yeah, good luck with that. The genie’s out of the bottle and the msm wouldn’t put it back if they could.
 
Romney Against Gay ‘Marriage’ But OK With ‘Domestic Partnerships,’ Gay Adoption, Gays in Military ~ Can’t wait to vote for this flip-flopping unprincipled RINO.
Wonder if Mitt ever read the Gay Liberation Front Manifesto (1979):

“We must aim at the abolition of the family”, which was founded upon the “archaic and irrational teachings” of Christianity.

…And understands the part he’s playing in helping them achieve that goal?
 

Dead Man Voting ~ Video from James O’Keefe Exposes Troubling Ballot Policies In New Hampshire Primary (both parties). Just volunteer the name of a recently deceased voter that you found in the obituaries and you get a ballot… no I.D. required.
New Hampshire’s attorney general may be investigating the matter. But the governor is outraged… at O’Keefe. This would be the same governor who vetoed a voter I.D. bill.
 
Web of Grace ~ at World Magazine. A burgeoning presence on the internet is helping Christians spread the Word in China. Seems the more the Chinese government persecutes Christians, the more their people are drawn to faith in God.
 
“Ha ha Warmist losers. For you the war is over” ~ James Delingpole at the UK Telegraph. Too funny!
 
Patton Urinated on the Enemy: Ridiculous Hype About Marines Video ~ Great article by Robert K. Wilcox at Big Peace, putting some perspective on the peeing Marines story;

It’s so predictable, petty, and blown out of proportion by a media that largely knows nothing of the battlefield and why a crude but ultimately innocuous act like this might happen. What do they expect in war? Tea and crumpets and the Marquess of Queensbury rules? War is hell. Most of those fighting it are young, usually 18 to 22. They are inexperienced. They are sent to deserts and other uninhabitable places with stinging insects, maddening heat and sanitary conditions the Left would be screaming was child abuse. They forge a bond with each other few peacetime friendships can ever hope to equal. They have to. It’s the only way to get through. And some of them, if not more, see that bonded friend killed or mutilated as only war can do it.

Fellowship of the Minds has the actual photo of Gen. Patton relieving himself in the Rhine here: Americans cheered Gen. Patton when he urinated on the enemy
