Lou Harrison
Lou Harrison, an important American composer, who was a sweet gay artist and activist, has died at 85. I had the honor of meeting him and his lover a few years ago.

Cheney / Confederate Flag
The Right Wing has been all in a tizzy over ANSWER sponsorhip of anti-war rallies. In short, the argument is that protesters are tacitly endorsing ANSWER’s leninist ideology by attending those rallies.
Well, in that case, VP Cheney endorses the Confederate Flag and thinks Janet Reno is a child butcher. [Daily Kos]
