Useful Links

What follows is a list of links that I keep around for reference purposes and general interest; they encompass many viewpoints from left-to-right, and my linking to it does not constitute an endorsement in any way. I do not link to any blogs on this list; that is reserved for my blogroll. If you would like me to add your blog to my blogroll, please send me an e-mail and I will do so.

If any of these links are broken, please notify me so that I can correct it. Thanks!

NOTE: Links with asterisks (* *) are ones that I consider to be either extremists or possible extremists.
