Headed to Santa Cruz for mountain biking, surfing and laundry.
I've seen this book before, but it just came up again and its still just as unbelievable. I mean, I'm a liberal guy but these books are ridiculous. They basically paint the Democratic party as the saviors of the human race without any kind of opposing view. And even if it had an opposing viewpoint, its targeted toward children. Children don't know why (as an example in the book) funding the fire department is important or what the trade offs are if you don't. These books are pure, brain washing, shameful propaganda. I'm reminded of the poor kids I used to see in college who came with the fanatical preacher who would talk in front of the student union. They would walk around with signs that said "Jesus hates fags". When you'd talk to them they'd give scripted, robotic answers back about what the Lord says. These books are full of scripted thought and are no different.
Big thanks to Papi Chulo and Secret Agent Scotch for the amazing tickets!

I was hoping to post the Eat to the Beat round up before going away for the weekend, but my schedule has been really hectic this week and I'm not going to get a chance. I promise I will post it first thing next week! We have some great entries, again.
Also, just a quick note to those of you who use a reader. Several months back, Vox randomly switched to a feed that only shows the first couple of sentences and small pictures in readers, which I found to be incredibly annoying. I was playing around trying to move my site (again) when I came across my full RSS feed. So, if you want to be able to view my entire post in your reader and not just the first few sentences, you need to subscribe to this feed: http://ellysaysopa.vox.com/library/posts/rss-full.xml
Have a wonderful 4th, all!
