This guy for instance seems to have a lot of time on his hands.

In the YouTube video, Jon Ritzheimer explained tearfully why he was going to miss Christmas with his 3- and 5-year-old daughters in Arizona to protest on behalf of ranchers in a remote corner of Oregon.

Don't worry about it Jon. I'm sure your wife has found someone else by now and your kids are calling him Daddy. I love that whole Tokyo Rose thing. You have to go and read the whole thing to get a feel for what a paranoid, neurotic, psychotic dickhead this guy is. 

From Oregon Live, what we need to know for Friday. The hostage takers were supposed to announce plans for releasing their hostages today. So far. Not so much. 

For anyone interested in doing so, here's a petition asking President Obama to please arrest these assholes and charge them with something. Anything really.

Here's Charles Pierce on the shipment of dildos to Oregon:

What is wrong with you people? Do you think people sent candy penises to Washington at Valley Forge? Do you think the Constitution was written with a dong-shaped quill pen? Do you believe Button Gwinnett was into vibrators, or Stephen Hopkins into leather? OK, you might have a point with old Ben Franklin, but that's no reason to take the fight against the tyranny of bird sanctuaries as lightly as this. They hand you freedom and you hand them a dildo? Ungrateful bastids, the lot of you.

I have no problem with the Gang being made a laughingstock, but I'd still like to seem some actual charges as well.
