Wednesday Read 'ems

Hump-day top 5 is coming shortly, but in the meantime, here are some good reads from elsewhere.

Firedoglake has all you need to know about recent developments in Plamegate.

Lance Mannion has an very interesting post about Dear Leader, ADD, and alcholism.

Jesse Jackson writes an extremely impassioned and important op-ed piece for the Sun-Times on why progressives need to keep paying attention to Katrina reconstruction efforts.

Read and learn, read and learn.
