Lightning Round--Palin Toked Up, The Bridge of Lies, Governors Suck, RIP Richard Wright, More

Pensito Review: Palin inhaled. Or so she says. I don't believe anything she tells me anymore. I think she's just saying that to try to sound cool.

Tom Toles: McCain's building a bridge of lies right into the White House (cartoon).

Crooks and Liars: Governors and Mayors don't know JACK! Well, that's how John McCain made it sound during the primaries. But who remembers that stuff anyway?

Les Enragés.Org: RevPhat has the word on the street.

New Scientist: There's something out in space, and no one has ever seen anything like it before. Don't Panic.

Ecorazzi: Jenna Fischer is a cat person.

Unconventional Conventionist: Richard Wright of Pink Floyd died Monday of cancer. Attention is paid by UC. Great work, UC. Mojoey weighs in as well. I saw the man play back in 1992 and it was legendary.
