I’ll just leave it here because it has to be seen in full to appreciate how disgusting it is.

There’s lot of push back on Twitter with people rightly pointing out that none of this is corroborated by facts.

The Oregonian: Bundy planned for months

There’s a lengthy article on The Oregonian website describing

Oregon occupation planned for months by Ammon Bundy and Montana militia leader

and it’s sobering, to say the least. I fear we’re going to see a page has been turned, largely because the group has been given so much latitude.

Bundy and Ryan Payne seem to have gone rogue in not abiding by Hammond’s rejection of help once things got real. They did in deed case the joint while in the area the last couple of months and not entirely unnoticed. There is a lot there. While I don’t trust anything Bundy tells the press, they interviewed local and Federal officials too. There’s really no excuse for them to have been caught off guard given Bundy’s history. Sheriff Ward, Greg Walden, and all the other people who are essentially giving approval of this should note a comment by someone who initially rejected the occupation but is now impressed. The last sentence of the article:

This is history here. It shows the government that we made the government and if they don't get smart very soon, we might dissolve that government.

Hotlist-like option

The Hotlist of DK4 is not an option in DK5. But it’s not all bad news.

Your old Hotlist is still accessible just as it used to be. It wasn’t certain that was going to happen so I am very happy.

Credit goes to Elfling for figuring out this workaround.

To archive stories in DK5 you’ll need to make yourself a group. Click on your name in the upper right corner and select My Groups from the dropdown. Then create a new group. This area of the blog appears as it did in DK4 so it will be familiar. Now whenever you think “I’d like to Hotlist this if only those %#&%#*@!% devs hadn’t ruined DK” you can. In the upper left area of the sidebar under Comments and Recs you’ll see “Add to blog”. Click that and you’ll get a pop up that allows you to select the group, write a note if you want, and then put it in the Queue. I don’t know what happens if you publish it but it might be something to do with antimatter and black holes.

You’ll have access to the stories from any device (as long as you’re logged in, of course). When you go to your groups select the one you’re saving to and then go into the queue which is clickable from the top of the right hand sidebar. There they are!

I hope that’s enough information for people to manage this. Once you set it up it really isn’t any more clicks than the old Hotlist.

Wee Mama has also got a community project going. You can join that group and save stories to it that everyone in the group will be able to access. Read about that here: Join Wee Mama's hotlist group

Roseburg resident politicizes mass murder at UCC with help from Fox “news”

Another useful idiot in Fox's quest to inflict its anti-Obama pro-gun agenda on the nation. David Jaques, publisher of a small-time right-wing Roseburg newspaper, has been making the rounds on FOX and having his comments spread by RW sites indicating he's interviewed citizens and local elected officials who hate Obama for saying we ought to politicize gun control. They are pushing the notion that the people of Roseburg don't welcome the President.

They're also giving the impression Jaques’ rag is the main local newspaper when it is in fact a small publication with an extremist political agenda. I will not link to it but it’s easily found online.
