Edwards moistens stinger
It goes without saying, as an enthusiastic supporter of John Edwards, as someone who believes in him and his message, I am profoundly disappointed with the news today. I feel for his wife, his family...
You know, Scarlett Johansson……..
is ridiculously hot. What we have here, is a letter. A forged letter. A letter penned by our CIA at the behest of our White House. The letter was intended to allow Dick-in-Bush, both hands empty o...
Tapdancing Pancakes
I find myself again in position to beg your indulgence for the day’s most prominent issue. See, what I can’t quite digest is the idea that somehow Our Man’s biggest liability has b...
The Wrong Week to Quit Sniffing Glue
I used to see movies or television shows that depicted unbalanced people and think such a fate was impossible for me. I’d wonder at how it could actually happen. I imagined the unlikliest of s...
My Brain Itches
Happy morning. Oh, happy day. So I’m experiencing some synchronicity with the Wachowski Brothers. Watched The Matrix for the first time. Then, V for Vendetta. Now there’s some Matrix se...
Cognoscenti
The talking heads have coalesced on how to frame Our Man’s travels abroad. Roaring success with a foreign policy/national security bump vs. overstepping his station. His place. Gergen was be...
Numbers
Various sources. America closes in on one million foreclosures. Indymac is the third largest carp in our country’s history to reveal it’s pale belly in the polluted waters of American fi...
The smartest day
Yesterday we learned Dick-in-Bush would be sending one of it’s “most senior diplomats” to Switzerland to meet with Iran’s top nuclear official. Today we learned of the Pentag...
Dirty Dancing
The progressive blogosphere is ablaze today with speculation and outright dismay over Our Man Obama’s shuffle to the middle. The conventional wisdom is that it’s bad form and smacks of pa...
My Country ’tis of Thee
Remember the next line? We torture. Our government knows. Beyond complicit. They actively encourage and participate. This administration is guilty as fuck. These are very bad people. ̶...
Guess who’s introducing shit to the fan?
Why that would be our man. The Little Paste Eater. Dennis Kucinich introduced thirty five articles of impeachment against Dumbya in the House o’ Reps last night. He’s already delivered...
A recap of sorts
So, not a day of sartorial splendor for America’s once well turned out economy. We used to clean up well. These days the only thing clean is our clocks. Sorry. In a single day the market ...
Two days out…..
Nothing really happened. A good friend I haven’t spoken to in at least twenty years left a message on my cell the other day. I called him back. We talked for almost two hours just now. He&...
Ya gotta love it
I knew this bomb of a tome set sail some time ago. If I knew, they knew. Trust me. McClellan telegraphed both the book and the tone thereof, months ago when he was quoted on Plamegate. “The m...
Happy Holiday
I hesitate to bore you with the facts, but today is either Labor Day or Memorial day. That of course, means one of two things. Members of one of two groups will definitely get the day off. ThatR...
Everybody just take a damn breath. Maybe a bath.
The quote: “[…] and now we have what some are reading as a suggestion that somebody knock off Osama. Um, uh, Obama. Well them both, if we could.” Convenient that it happened on Fox...
Finally
The wave crests, then breaks, the national media plays a mind. In the two thousand election, Doubtfire labeled Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell as “agents of intolerance”. I liked him th...
You know, The Gays and terrorists and stuff
Every once in a while, a genuinely good thing happens in the world and I find myself smiling. Guess what kind of day today was? This, after a pretty good day yesterday. Today the California Supre...
Maybe it’s the economy stupid.
It’s not so simple. See, the war in Iraq is the eight hundred pound gorilla in the elevator. We wage this obtuse war on credit. The thick residue of it’s flesh, lives maimed and lost, ...
Talking points
Yesterday Dumbya, in an earnest impersonation of Alfred E. Newman, told us no worries, we’re not in a recession. Oil up over one hundred seventeen dollars a barrel. Up from thirty or so under...
ABC speculates about Condi as VP
Speculation bubbled over the weekend about the potential of Rice as a possible running mate for Doubtfire. On one hand, youth and and vitality along with femininity and well………̷...
Sheezus! It’s a rant!
Hey kids. Hope you’re all in the mood for a puppet show because I am. If you look close, you’ll see that many of the puppets have freckles and some even wear glasses. Be good to yoursel...
I’m at my best on a slow news day…..
So, The Joint Chiefs chairman tells us today we’re fresh out of cannon fodder. Admiral Mike Mullen admitted today that although additional US troops are needed in Afghanistan, we’re tapp...
