Take a Little Time This Thanksgiving Weekend

Take twenty minutes or so to visit the New York Times website, where they have the video of Barack Obama's Chicago acceptance speech on election night, along with an interactive transcript that makes the speech even more meaningful.

This year we have a great deal to be thankful for, and we can't forget it. What a difference the past three weeks has made...can't you just feel it?

Go! Watch!

Talking Turkey with Conservative Relatives at Thanksgiving

You will enjoy and learn from this delightful and informative article by Sara Robinson, originally from the website Campaign for America's Future but reprinted on AlterNet. "Worried About Thanksgiving Rights with Right-Wing Family Members?" is a series of tips and topics to counter any of the arguments that desperate Conservatives will no doubt start slinging around at the dinner table as they bemoan the results of the recent election.

Sara's entertaining insights will be worth remembering far beyond Thanksgiving Day. She nails the Right's greatest fears and most specious allegations with wit, grace and intelligence, so that you can, too! Liberals have a proud record of achievement and it's time we were starting fighting back against the lies and stupidity.

Happy Thanksgiving!
