Your one stop pundit shop.

Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) took his talking points on Barack Obama straight from yesterday’s column by Charles Krauthammer. Seriously, Rep. Cantor, if you don’t have an original thought to share, than at least have the courtesy to cite your source.

Deborah Howell thinks that the Washington Post’s political coverage could be better. So does everyone else.

James K. Robinson rebuts a previous op-ed that had Leonard Boyle, the director of the federal Terrorist Screening Center, defending the terrorist watch list.

Dan Ariely thinks that we should stop obsessing over the price of gas and think about how much more we’re paying for other necessities.

While we concentrate our anger on gas prices, we are ignoring increases in electricity, food and health insurance — expenses that might actually have a greater effect on our budgets.

Joel Stein provides a guide on how to make jokes about Obama. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), they’re all pretty lame.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) gets straight to the point:

There is no quick fix to $4.50-a-gallon gas, no way to provide instant relief to consumers we know are hurting. Yet President Bush and others continue to push the false promise of offshore oil drilling.

KnitSonya did a fantastic job refurbing these old theater seats with fresh upholstery and so on:

The surly teenager, with great ingenuity, broke them down and hauled them to the car. My friend Kobi brought the fabric back from a trip to Finland. (I provided the address to the Marimekko outlet) Pasha serendipitously used upholstery batting as packing material when she mailed the loom. And finally Mr. Knitsonya helped put them back together again. (There was that brief 45 minute window today where I thought I had thrown away all the hardware) It was like some epic craft undertaking: Cast of thousands! Years in the making! But aren't they gorgeous?

Simon sez, "We did a free Summer of Love mashup compilation/album to tribute the first (1968) and the second (1988) Summer of Love revolutions in one. So we mashed Flower Power hits with acid house and rave stuff. As a bonus each artist created a custum vintage VW Bus paper model and we give them away in a handy print ready pdf file. The Summer of Love 2008 is a featured torrent in the Mininova so its ultra fast. There is a wacky alternate download as well, plus straming and track by track download too. Fans can find an empty VW bus sablon in the pdf so they can design their own bus and send it to us, we will post them in a gallery at the WHA!? site." Link (Thanks, Simon!)

I think my friend Joanne spotted this one last year when we visited the Bahamas.

Random street in Vegas. What. We are walking.

What.
