Lots of posts in the California blogs in the last 24 hours, almost all of them on Bush commuting Scooter Libby's sentence (it's good to be the king -- or his friend). Actual California stuff I found below the fold. As always, if I missed something, post it in comments.

Incidentally, I noticed that for some reason the links sometimes appear as plain text in the RSS feed. They do seem to show up as hyperlinks in the emailed roundup. I'll see what I can do about that. Until then, just click through for hyperlinking.
