Morning Glory: First Things First, Bayh of Pigs, Valley of Browser, Neo Geo, Iron Man 2

• First Things gives a refreshingly honest review of Sarah Palin's coloring book from the Right.  More impressive? I'm actually sourcing something they wrote on this blog. [Politics]
• Glenn Greenwald serves up Evan Bayh's* credibility for a post-Thanksgiving feast.  Knowing his voting record, it probably goes great with pork. [Politics]
• Browsera tests your site's loading time in eight different browsers.  I never get tired of watching IE come in last. [Apps]
• Tweetdeck adds maps to pinpoint your geolocation.  Though the concept is far from revolutionary, I can't help but be impressed and frightened at the same time. [Twitter]
  
• Yahoo debuts the Iron Man 2 poster art.  Don Cheadle has some biiiiiiig shoes to fill. [Movies]

Morning Glory: CP+B Baits Bill O'Reilly, Amazon reviews Palin, Contra Remake, PETA Claus, etc.

• Reddit loves the most popular review of Sarah Palin's ghostwritten book. Hilarity ensues. [Politics]
• Warning: Nerd Alert!  Someone re-made Contra in Half-Life 2.  It's as good as it sounds. [Nostalgia]

• ESPN issues a two-week Twitter suspension to Bill Simmons for calling a spade a spade. [Twitter]

Morning Glory: Google Phone Announced, Palin Book in Bargain Bin, Facebook & Myspace Have a Kid, Mel Watt Sucks, etc.

• Michael Arrington "unofficially officially" announces the launch of a Google-branded phone. Considering all the recent developer backlash directed at the app store, Apple should be very afraid. [Gphone]
• Slate decides Sarah Palin's new book needs an index.  Everyone else decides not to buy it. [Politics]
• It turns out Nicholas Cage's financial problems were due to overspending and not starring in The Rock. I'm skeptical. [Movies]
• The Oatmeal attempts to mash up Facebook and Myspace.  Needless to say, it isn't pretty. [Cartoon]
• Congressman Mel Watt (D-NC) is a fucking tool.  You can tell him so here or call his Washington office at (202) 225-1510. [Mel Watt Sucks]
• Bonus: Further coverage on Mel Watt, America's next Sarah Palin.  All's not lost though, North Carolina.  You can vote him out in 2010!  Oh, but you won't. [Mel Watt is an Embarrassment]

The Instant Read: Scathing Review of Palin's Autobiography

You can check out the entire review, but here's my favorite line:

Millions of copies will be sold of a book written by someone who can't write, intended for an audience that doesn't read, about the thoughts of a person who doesn't think. God is dead.

Glad someone else took that bullet.  I'm too busy reading books by actual conservatives.

Sarah Palin may actually be able to see Putin's house if she was at the tip of Antarctica-overlayed-on-the-United-States.

Wait....still no.

The Instant Pic: Daily Beast Commenter's Response to Sarah Palin's Speech in Hong Kong

Our illustrious IT department isn't happy with me right now. Snapple Iced Tea + Sarah Palin mockery + expensive keyboards is the leading cause of my office technology "accidents."

Update: Here's the link the commenter references in his post.
