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

In the news… Is BJ-the-mayor-bear being muzzled? Wall Street: Crisis? What Crisis? Mugabe about to walk?

Highlights
OurKingdom – UK5
The disaster at Terminal 5 is representative of the cancer at the heart of our state: grand visions undermined by incompetence and vacuity.

nosemonkey’s EUtopia – The state of British EU news coverage
A humble blogger has been nominated for the UACES-Reuters Reporting Europe Award. Nosemonkey argues that his own nomination is proof of the MSM’s EU-myopia.

e8voice – Immigration
Anthony Painter points out that the Lord’s immigration report’s most interesting factor is the effect immigration has had on our lowest paid workers.

Harold Meyerson/WashPo – Bailing Out the Reaganites
Meyerson wishes the Reagan GOP love-in was still going on. After all, it’s the politics of Old Gipper that have caused the current economic crisis (or is it?).

Elsewhere
Earthpal – Our Kids
Westmonster – Clinton and Obama unite against McCain
The Yorksher Gob – Stupid BNP member is outed as writer of Stupid blog
Dave Cole – The Counter-terrorism Bill and coroners
Chicken Yoghurt – Newspapers and personal data: a level playing field at last
Mark Steel/Indi – You couldn’t make it up (unless you’re Hillary, that is)
Zoe Williams/CiF – A very liberal lover
Lee Griffin – Unfair green taxes, and how Cameron is *not* “flip-flopping”
