* In Wisconsin, they have caught yet another right wing domestic terrorist planning to kill people at Planned Parenthood. Luckily, he was incompetent and shot his gun off in his hotel room before he could commit the mass murder he told police he was planning to do this morning. Charming.

* Serbia finally arrested General Ratko Mladic, a war criminal responsible for massacring 8000 unarmed people. He was not bothering to hide and appearing openly at public events. Because the want in to the EU, they decided to arrest him after all. My contempt is huge.

* A vote to accelerated draw down on the wars failed by 11 votes in the house.

* In Libya, government troops are engaging in systematic rape, likely as a matter of policy.

* I just got my first poll for the Fall election.

* The Tuscon shooter has been found unable to stand trial due to mental illness. I'm not surprised at all. They will be reevaluating in Fall.

* Elizabeth Smart's kidnapper had been found legally insane in state court, but was found guilty in federal court. It's been something like nine years.
