Bush�s speech on Tuesday night fell somewhere between dreary and soporific. His attempt to link Iraq to al-Qaeda was akin to watching a 5-year-old stubbornly try to make two mismatched puzzle pieces fit together.

Salon has long been one of my favorite web mags. The articles cover a smorgasbord of issues and the writing is usually excellent. I haven�t been reading as much of it recently because I was reluctant to subscribe to something that might shut down any day. But now it�s possible to access all of the articles by clicking through some ads. It takes ten seconds and it�s really worth it. Warning: the magazine is decidedly on the left of the political spectrum, with the occasional token conservative columnist.
