The Above Linkblogs Might Contain "Borrowed" links.
Linkblogs do not substantially contribute traffic to my blog that I can discover. They all go offsite, and are often accessed from my blog. It's possible to access them from the RSS according to my settings. Still, even if I were to get ads clicking on a linkblog from the RSS won't drive more people to my blog than otherwise because they leave my resources. (Note to self, do more posts, less LBs with sources I find). I explain because I sometimes borrow links from people at Twitter, and often forget who put them up. (To fellow Twitterers: If you have a link to your blog, I will point it there, but Twitter, being impermanent, cannot hold your link for people to discover from there. I only 'borrow' them to get news out to as many people as I can who might not have seen the reports and videos found by the smart people I follow at Twitter or find in search rooms.RSS Add-Me
High Court Refuses to Uphold Civil Rights
As anti minority intimidation is increasing the US Supreme Court led but Chief Justice John Roberts has refused to uphold the protection of civil rights in an important challenge to the Civil Rights Act. A Texas district has won the right via a lower court to opt out of the 1960s law, and the high court refused to overturn the decision, but left the matter for a later day. (Good, as long as we can keep the War Party out of control we could have a chance to uphold the original law later.)
Justice Thomas (RW puppet that he is) dissented with the refusal to rule on the case obtusely saying he'd stash that thing in the round file as fast as he could.
With the right cooking up new schemes every election to keep minorities from vote we need the voting rights in all its strength to be upheld and honored.
See details of orginal report on today's action on the voting rights bill at AP "High court rules narrowly in voting rights case ".
