The Reaction in Review (September 13, 2009)

A weekend's Reactions that deserve a second look:

Sunday

By Capt. Fogg: "Bye Bye Norma Rae" -- Fogg writes a wonderful in-your-face piece about what happens to someone, in this case the real Norma Rae character, Chystal Lee, when her insurance company's "death panel" denied her treatment for brain cancer.

By Michael J.W. Stickings: " 'Unhinged hysteria': More tea party extremism" -- Michael posts chapter and verse (and another photo), that illustrate the breadth of the current Republican right wing buzz. See also: "Photo of the Day."

By Creature: "Truth in Comics" -- Hilarious: Joe the Plumber to Joe the Wilson.


Saturday

By Capt. Fogg: "The dogs do bark" -- The Captain's cutting-edge post regarding the tea party protesters gathered in Washington generated a lengthy and lively comment thread.
