Thought Provoking

Wretchard, over at Belmont has a couple of thought provoking pieces. First, a bit about George Orwell which includes a couple of videos. (note that the embed has been disabled, but you can click on the "Youtube Direkt" link below the video and watch it at youtube). Second, a piece about Michael Jackson. Now, I know you're probably sick of hearing about Jackson, but this is truly a bit different take on the whole affair.
