Rum and Coke Newsletter
I wish I had the money to hire someone to take over for me when I want to sit down at the end of the day, take my head off, set it down and have a rum and coke, but I don’t. So here’s my end of the day, rum and coke, things you’ve got to see and know newsletter:

Watch Romney’s point man — the guy who’s was sent out to put the ahem, lie to the Republican war on women — treat Rachel Maddow like a child.
••• Read about how a police chief in Wisconsin begged the state senate not to allow habitual criminals to have gun permits. The response he got?
“Here’s the phone number of the National Rifle Association lobbyist in Washington, D.C. If it’s O.K. with him, it will be O.K. with us.”
••• Really important and informative article: Far Right Conservatives Invent New Language. Longish but worth it. This photo included:

••• The Economist freaks out about the possibility of a Socialist becoming France’s next president. Monsieur Hollande is “rather dangerous” it says. Yeah, “dangerous” to the corporatocracy.
