I Have A Dream
that some day Condi and Karen Hughes will write a joint tell-all book about their days in the White House, mixing political expose with sexual expose and that it will contain Karl Rove b&d as well as racy lesbian three ways with Condi, Karen, and Crazy-eyes.
Ahhh, a kid can dream, can’t she?

Dream a Little Dream With Me
Please accept my apologies, my lovelies, for my extended failure to post. My own blog has been neglected as have my friends. However my place of employment has seen much too much of me. And unfortunately I still require a paycheck to enable my habit of buying groceries.
This will be a drive-by […]

America and Iran, a game of “chicken”?
I think all of us who can recall the 1950’s (OK, I was a little tyke, but I saw the movies) know what the game of “chicken” is. Two cars full of screaming teenagers go at each other at high speed, the first one to pull the wheel and steer out of the […]

Have you heard “the news”?
In The Assault on Reason Al Gore writes,
Consider the rules by which our present public forum now operates and how different they are from the norms our Founders knew during the age of print. Today’s massive flows of information are largely in only one direction. The world of television makes it virtually impossible for individuals […]

Your Money or Your Vote, Or What’s Fair?
Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen asserts that all political systems present themselves as fair. But “fair” can mean either of two very different things: one citizen-one vote or one  dollar (or share or other currency unit)-one vote. Both models are currently popular. One is the basis of democratically elected government; the other is the basis […]

The next comeback kid…
Maybe some readers like watching BoB devolve from a platform that created a community of a million vistors of all stripes into a milquetoast circle jerk that is simpled down to the political flavors of an effete few.  I am not one of them. Which is why I’m posting an item about Eliot Spitzer. Nobody put blinkers on […]

clip it, zip it, ship it… President McCain
The only thing left for the MSM to predict is their own job security. And Howard Dean thought the long march to the convention would benefit his potty. The unofficial innaguration takes place in about 12 hours. All’s left to predict is how much money will it take to get Chuck Berry to play an innaugural shindig. Why did Hanoi John win? […]

A Blast from the Past
Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great. (Mark Twain)
Amen.

Mobetta open space… 1984 in 2008
As a founding blogger of BoB, humbly beg to report I am thoroughly disgusted at the recent narrowing down- and simpling down- of the subject focus here. Hilla should this, Barack should that. The Dems this, the Dems that. While my observations and transgressions in such areas are duly noted, the mashup of “engagement” and […]
