There were a lot of things over the past couple of days that I read and wanted to write about but couldn't quite fit into a post. So then I remembered that I could do a link roundup for you folks to read while you're pretending to work on this Wednesday.

Derek Shearer, an old friend, has written a thoughtful, documented and
moderately-scary essay about the state of politics and environment.

* Happy Birthday to Capitol Weekly. The new version preceded us by a few days back in 2005. It is kind of scary to look back at some of those old diary posts from back in the day.
* Prop 23 Miscellaneous Notes: Another $250K for the No on 23 campaign based upon the opportunity for new green jobs. Koch Industries, an oil company, is a big supporter of Prop 23. Oh, and they like to fund climate denial "studies." FInally, HuffPo has a good story on the Texas oil companies and the Adam Smith Foundation.
* Jerry Brown and Meg Whitman have been squabbling over pay and pensions for a while.

Democracy for New Mexico
This is a post by contributing writer, Stephen Jones, who is a progressive political activist and a resident of Las Cruces, New Mexico.
It is another week and with it, yet another grating message of intolerance from the Republican Party. Fast on the heels of last week’s assault on the 14th Amendment of the Constitution and birthright citizenship, the party of “no” now aims to overturn the 1st Amendment and trample upon the most deeply held conviction of the framers of the United States Constitution, cast at the very inception of the nation’s founding, the individual right of conscience.
The national group EMILY's List, an organization "dedicated to building a progressive America by electing pro-choice Democratic women to office" is
targeting Republican gubernatorial candidate Susana Martinez.
The Wall Street Journal reported earlier today:
[EMILY's List President Stephanie Schriock] cited three races that are prime targets for warring Mama Grizzlies, in which EMILY's List supports the Democrat and Sarah Palin has endorsed the Republican. They include the California Senate race between Sen. Barbara Boxer and former Hewlett-Packard executive Carly Fiorina; a Minnesota House race that pits GOP Rep.
