Joe Biden… Joe Tynan… Joe Clinton

What kind of “united” Democrat front will emerge after this 48 hour Clinton stinkathon is unclear. What is clear is that Joe Biden projects Clinton “attributes” walks and talks K Street and that’s “the right stuff” for the bad makeover DLC krewe. Its even better stuff for the GOP, already lobbing in heavy artillery on […]

Shalom=Salaam,Barak=Baruch

Recently I was having lunch at the Club Homs on the Avenida Paulista in Sao Paulo; its the Champs Elysees and Fifth Avenue of Brazil. For the unannointed, the Club Homs is the preferred gathering place for old-line Brazilians of Syrian origin who emigrated during the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Names on the Club […]

Again, With The Taser

by Sasha
This time, in another stunning (ha ha!) example of police incompetence and willingness to use a Taser for no damn reason we have the police responding to a call about a young man lying on the ground under an overpass. In their zeal to subdue the young man — yes, the one lying […]

The Philosopher King

If America had philosopher kings, George Carlin would have been one.
Carlin looked at the same world all of us do, but saw it differently. He saw connections we didn’t, as in his famous comparison of football and baseball. He could boil down everyday life to an essence that eluded the rest of us, as when […]

I’m just saying…

For the past couple of weeks, I’ve watched the McCain Misdirection America Tour take flight and have been really frustrated that neither of our “dream” candidates have taken the obvious opportunity to define McCain before he gets up and running. After all, this guy is as much bait and switch as Bush’s compassionate conservative […]

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 […]

Probamastance: Wednesday

At best, CLINTON INC succeeds only by making Americans think Obama is as shitty as Americans think Hillary is. And if people think Hillary Clinton is a liar, denouncing Che Obama as a marxist/nigger-theology radical/sleeper muslim terrorist/effete San Francisco fag elitist helps Obama doesn’t it? I mean, who thinks the American public is stupid here?
The […]

The Inquisition at Messiah U.

In Brazil for a couple of weeks, a nation where religion does not infiltrate retail politics. I am watching CNN, where Hillary is getting the Torquemada treatment from a crew of media trained whitebread fundamentalist Christian cuthroats. An event billed as the Compassion Forum… While I am no fan of the former co-president Mrs. Clinton, […]

Put Your Heart in the Sky Fairy or Get Your @%# Out

God is undoubtedly pleased to know that the religious have been putting atheists in their place this week. First, an Illinois state legislator lost it while questioning one of ‘em during a public hearing. Here’s Representative Monique Davis, who is, unfortunately, a Democrat: “What you have to spew and spread is extremely dangerous . . […]
