- I argue that there's a difference between ecological interactions and natural selection.
- At Effect Measure, revere describes the politicization of the CDC and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. On a related note, see here too.

- Rick Perlstein recounts the long history of Republican voter suppression, which stems from the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1964.
- That shudder you felt in the earth's axis of rotation is because Rush "Big Pharma" Limbaugh might actually get in a little trouble for something he said (in this case, a skit referring to Senator Barack Obama as "Barack the Magic Negro").
- Digby illustrates how Democrats will never do right by the Washington Mandarin Class.
- Terrorism against U.S women in the U.S. isn't really terrorism according to the mainstream media.

I know you really don't get comments on these all that often, so I'll just say this: I really appreciate these Sunday links. You find a lot of really cool stuff, and I find myself looking forward to the commentary you find each week.
