Speaking of people who should be in prison, have you seen the new list published today which concisely breaks down 99 Problems created by the Bush Administration since 2000? This is an awesome resource that includes at least one source next to each item. It's a MUST read to be passed on as much as possible:

PS---For non-boring State Of The Union Coverage tonight, check out www.theyoungturks.com and or http://bravenewfilms.org/network . They will be simulcasting awesome progressive coverage from 8-11pm EST with TYT and Robert Greenwald, the man behind BNF, Fox Attacks and various awesome documentaries including Outfoxed, Iraq For Sale and the Wal-Mart movie. I'm not sure if BNF will keep the same format from previous live events, such as live blogging, live polling (of viewers) and a live chat but I assume so.

Seriously though, just watching the entire SOTU without commentary is not very interesting and having all of the BS go unchallenged might make you want to punch your TV, assuming you don't fall asleep first! And watching the TV Talking head commentary is also a questionable prospect (I doubt they'll be especially honest, insightful or funny, or call out Bush on the likely BS in his speech).

1. It's True About TV
A lot of parents these days seem to use TV as a cheap baby-sitter.

2. Well, I Don't Have Any Kids
If I did, I'd like to think I wouldn't let them turn into TV zombies, but I'm sure it's incredibly hard to work 40+ hours a week and always have the energy to keep your kids mentally and physically engaged most of the time. Not that they can never relax, but you get the idea.

3. Cops and criminals
Interesting observation at the end. What more do cops and criminals have in common?
