123beta: Good Stuff Thursday

About once a week or so I like to highlight interesting posts I've read in the blogosphere. This week is no exception...

Today's buzz: The Bobby Calvan fiasco. This is the 'journalist' from the Sacramento Bee who published his most arrogant thoughts about a U.S. soldier in Baghdad that dared to question him and his lack of identification at a checkpoint. His blog is now off-line because he received roughly 200 negative comments... But thanks to blogger DocWeasel his entire morally corrupt post along with the accompanying comments can be read. Thanks DocWeasel!
- UPDATE: Dan Riehl digs deeper...

More Ted Rall lunacy from Weasel Zippers. I wonder if his mom is proud of him...

Illegal aliens (undocumented immigrants my butt!) are stealing aid meant for wildfire evacuees via ChicagoRay. Why am I not surprised? MEChA claims responsibility for starting the California fires. Has this been confirmed?

New York moves closer to becoming a sanctuary state - via Redstate.

And lastly, something pretty spooky. I don't believe in ghosts, but this video from the Sun is quite spooky and so far scientists have no explanation for the swings. H/T Ace
