Sunday Must Reads 4/3

-From the front page of the NYTimes; an article showcasing a corporation, Talx, that makes its bones trying to fight unemployment claims on behalf of employers. This will quickly remind anyone who saw “Up In the Air” of the sickening nature and lack of loyalty to anything besides money that corporations possess as a defining characteristic.

Must Read Op-Ed’s 4/3

- Frank Rich looks at president Obama as a rosarch test and the affect winning has had.
“What a difference winning makes — especially in America. Whatever did (or didn’t) get into Obama’s Wheaties, this much is certain: No one is talking about the clout of Scott Brown or Rahm Emanuel any more.”

- Maureen Down Continues to hit the Vatican.
“The exorcist also said that the abuse scandal showed that Satan uses priests to try to destroy the church, “and so we should not be surprised if priests too ... fall into temptation. They also live in the world and can fall like men of the world.”Actually, falling into temptation is eating cupcakes after you’ve given them up for Lent. Rape and molestation of children is far beyond what most of us think of as succumbing to worldly temptation.”
