The National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) is arguably The US Military-Industrial Complex, and it is worried... really worried about sequestration and other budget games being played (largely by the GOP) and what it is doing to the military's ability to do its job. Now, I hear you saying "that's nothing new" (and it isn't), but I was interested to see how direct military leadership is being in calling out the current situation and policies as being supremely bone-headed and dangerous in the last issue of National Defense magazine. Behold! After the very small orange mushroom cloud, I'll point you at several selected articles that expose just how dire the Pentagon thinks the situation is.

As the wrangler of the reconstituted "Top Mojo" feature of the daily "Top Comments" diary series, I am often called upon to ~~defend~~ explain how it works. This diary is an attempt to memorialize that need for an interested audience, soooo.... if, sometime in the future, you publicly rant something along the lines of "Why the @(&# didn't my most awesome comment in the history of the blogosphere make it into the Top Mojo list?!?", then you've hopefully been pointed here, where the answer likely lurks below the little orange sponge thingy:

In the few days leading up to the November elections, I posted a series of Facebook updates to my friends and family, more or less laying out how I was going to vote and my reasons for doing so. Sure, I was hoping to perhaps influence the... er... more conservative viewers of my stream, but several people said that I should have posted earlier... posted more often... or even diaried at here.

Now it is December and we're in the throes of the insane posturing over The Fiscal Cliff. Finally Obama and the Dems seem to be winning the argument... though perhaps not enough to get the Repubs to swallow their pride in the name of averting disaster. I started writing another missive on Facebook and was about to press send when I heard those little voices in my head, "Diiaryy.... DIAAARRRYYYYyyyy.." and now my lunch hour is over.

I'm not exactly a pro wonk, so I'm sure I've got plenty wrong. Follow me below the squishy ball of pizza dough, and correct me so I can argue better with my well-intentioned but even less well informed friends.

Yesterday, I posted a visual wrap-up of the YKos 07 Interfaith Service from Sunday.

Today, I bring you a set of candids from KY07...

P.S. Numbered for your convenience, if you'd like to out yourself. Also, there are larger versions of all these photos if you click through.

crossposted at Street Prophets
In the interest of not waiting until they are totally irrelevant, here is a set of photos from Sunday's Interfaith Service at YearlyKos 2007. I thought about just adding comments to PD's diary, but I think I've got enough content to be worth putting up a stand-alone.

I've generally left the people unnamed as a nod to privacy, but of course, feel free to out yourselves!

Do also see Pastor Dan's Diary at Street Prophets for the majority of the text of the service and a few more photos.

The fun starts below the fold.

So, on Saturday last, a smallish group of frequently Cheering and Jeering folks had an informal meetup in New Hampshire.

Following is a smattering of photos I took of people (and assorted others)... Looking at them, I'm wishing I'd been more obnoxiously intrusive and taken more pictures. sigh. Read More

With today's recommended polls on age and education, there is clearly a need for more polls! Given that it is the Friday afternoon of a rather tense week perhaps something light is in order, sooo....

So how tall are you? Read More

From Saturday's Boston Globe, there was a fascinating story by Michael Paulson on the subject of (some) evangelical Christians getting increasingly uncomfortable with right-wing politics at the same time they're getting more interested in what ought to have been big issues for them all along (e.g. poverty, enviroment, etc). One great paragraph below the fold and the whole story here. Read More

Appropriate penalties for election fraud

For purposes of discussion, let's assume that election fraud was rampant on both GOP and DEM sides. So what is the appropriate remedy? We need penalties that are severe enough to discourage small fraud altogether, and make large-scale/coordinated attacks counterproductive.

So, here are my suggestions for changes to federal law:

Any individual convicted of election fraud in any degree loses the right to vote permanently.
Minimum incarceration is based on the term of the post influenced (senate races become the biggies!). 1st-degree = double term, 2nd-degree = term, 3rd-degree = half term, etc.
Similarly, organizations losing tax-exempt status as a result of fraud are barred from re-applying for status for the term of the post influenced.
Tax-exempt status will not be granted for organizations led (president or directors) by anyone convicted under election-fraud law.

Am I missing anything? Over the top?
