Welcome to Casting the net, Liberal Conspiracy’s daily web review. As always, please feel free to share your own recommendations in the comments

Enough
Democracy Now! – Winter Soldier
En masse, veterans from the Afghan and Iraqi theatres speak out on the truth behind the propaganda.

Highlights
Blood & Treasure – as opposed to humans
What is it about the Hollywood cause célèbre, Tibet, that so animates the “liberal intelligentsia”?

The Daily (Maybe) – Jim Jay’s Political Power Act
You’ve just been elected PM with a stonking majority (elections? Pah! I always dreamed of a bloody coup). What would be the first law(s) you would introduce? Jim Jay indulges in the fantasy.

NHS Blog Doctor – Nadine Dorries – the “MP nurse-specialist”
Oh dear, even old Dr. Crippen is on Dorries’ case. Quote: “God knows, I am no fan of late abortions, and there is indeed a strong case to be made against them. But not like this. This is utter garbage.” Heh.

Chicken Yoghurt – Porcelain Gods
Despite being the all-powerful creator of everything, he’s a touchy bugger.

And finally, The Sun gets its knickers in a twist here and here. [warning: this involves the twin evils - see predictable tabloid outrage - of immigration and paedophilia].

Elsewhere
Sunder Katwala/CiF – Neocon tricks
Seumas Milne/CiF – Blowback all over again
Schneider Home – Russia’s 2nd Parliament
James Graham – Is Nick Harvey happy being the unacceptable face of Parliament?
Liberal England – Is the European project still internationalist?

The latest Realpolitik podcast is up.
