An Eclectic Mind

Here are a few links I found interesting from November 4, 2008 through November 6, 2008:

• Palin Didn't Know Africa Is A Continent, Says Fox News Reporter - This confirms what many people already suspected: that Sarah Palin's grasp of politics and geography are not up to minimal standards needed for a Vice President. If she expects to run in 2012, she'd better go back to school. This kind of ignorance is simply unacceptable for a presidential candidate — or a Vice President. Reported on the Huffington Post.
• Suddenly, it may be cool to be an American again - Wouldn't it be nice if we stopped being the stubborn, arrogant Americans and started being the Americans everyone used to love? I'm hoping. On Yahoo! News.
• Low-Cal Diner. A place to get Low Calorie & Low Fat Recipes! - In keeping with my dieting post earlier this week, this Web site should help you make dishes that are low in calories and still tasty. LowCalDiner.com.
• What Do We Have Here? TWINS? - After all this election stuff, it's time to have some fun. If these photos don't make you laugh, nothing will. On VoicingOpinions.com.
• Black Man Given Nation's Worst Job - Boy, the Onion has this right. Good for a laugh.
• ObamaBats - Oh, we've got it bad. You know we're stuck on a candidate when a bored designer comes up with a TrueType font based on the campaign. Cool, though. On JeffDomke.com.
• Letters - President-Elect Barack Obama - Stirring words from readers of the New York Times.
• Obama Elected President as Racial Barrier Falls - We've done a good thing. Im the New York Times.
• For Many Abroad, an Ideal Renewed - As I blogged earlier this year, this is one of the reasons I voted for Barack Obama. I think he'll help us regain lost ground in the international political arena by showing America as a place where anything is possible. Could the veil of hate have been lifted a few inches last night? I think so.
• Editorial - The Next President - NYTimes.com - Excellent opinion piece about the campaign, how Obama won, and the challenges he faces. In the New York Times.
• Didn't Vote For Obama Today - Read this. I dare you. On TalkingPointsMemo.com.
