Hi there! I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind signal boosting this tumblr my friend created for people with disabilities who support Obama for 2012.
It’s called ‘Rolling Foward,’ as a more inclusive version of Obama’s slogan, ‘Forward.’ As far as we know, there are no other blogs on tumblr that specifically cater to people with disabilities for...

wilwheaton:
So I read this, and I got mad:
The U.S. Justice Department said it will not pursue criminal charges against Goldman Sachs Group Inc or its employees related to accusations that the firm bet against the same subprime mortgage securities it was selling to clients.

The laser-like Republican focus on jobs continues:
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) is floating legislation that would name most U.S. coastal waters after former President Ronald Reagan.

parislemon:
I just quoted Roger Ebert’s excellent New York Times op-ed about the Aurora shooting, but really, you should read the whole thing. The entire thing is quote-worthy.
Another key excerpt:
