• The Economist echoes our theory that the GOP is imprisoning itself in the South, while the Democratic Party expands nationally.
• I'm no expert on what Jesus would do, but I'm pretty sure that he wouldn't be pushing Congress to cut funding for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, like some Christian conservatives want to do. They're mad because they're not getting enough money. Waah.
• The third biodiesel plant in Memphis opened this past week, as Memphis Biofuels opened one of the nation's largest biodiesel plants on Thursday right in the heart of the inner-city community of Orange Mound. Congratulations to the city of Memphis for getting to the forefront of what we believe will inevitably be a renewable energy revolution.
