Nothing Important
I’m having one of those weeks were I can’t focus on the news. My bleeding liberal heart can only take so much. I’m sure I will become sufficiently outraged again when the Senate confirms Alito for the Supreme Court. Do those pro-choice Republicans seriously believe that Alito will uphold Roe? Pffffff. I have been paying enough attention to learn that the White House has a new name for it’s (illegal) domestic spying program. Warrantless wiretapping is just too cumbersome - "Terrorist Surveillance Program” has a much nicer ring to it, don’tcha think?
In happier news, the Seahawks are going to the Super Bowl, Nick Collison may be in the starting lineup again for the Sonics (but maybe not), Veronica Mars is back tomorrow night, I’m spending the weekend with my 2 best friends, the sun came out today – I was almost blinded, I discovered podcasts by Ricky Gervais, did I mention that the Seahawks are going to the Super Bowl?

Your comment on how your, "bleeding liberal heart can only take so much" reminded me of this Onion article, "Nation's Liberals Suffering from Outrage Fatigue".
Personally, though I am a typical crybaby intellecutal also, I really can't follow the news EVER. It's just too much information.
Politics, civil rights, the environment, science, media, technology, business, education, etc. - WHO CAN KEEP UP WITH IT ALL?!
Indeed, who can keep up with it all? For example, I've completely ignored the "real" news this morning and instead have focused on the new broadcasting agreement for the Seattle Supersonics. Clearly, I need a vacation.
