Atrocity

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

The Not so Innocent Huckabee

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

The Great Pencil Sharpener War

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

A few days back, the inestimable Blue Gal did a great post about sexism, harassment, and what constitutes those things. It referenced a series of posts (more here, here, here, and here) about whether a pencil sharpener with the body of a woman doing it doggie style with a pencil ...

Regulation

Friday, December 14th, 2007

The enemy of Corporate Capitalists is regulation. The freedom to do whatever needs to be done to make a buck is the most efficient way to make that buck. Regulations, by the very nature, put a roadblock into that process. On the other hand, the goal of regulation is to ...

The New Hip Military Recruiter: “Dude! Yo, ‘Sup?”

Friday, December 14th, 2007

Military Recruiter must be the most thankless job in the country right now. If you don’t meet certain recruitment quotas you go back to the front lines. But who in the F#$%&!#! would want to enlist now? Even those ever-reliabl e minorities are staying away in droves. They keep raising the ...

While the President is busy demonstratin g how much he doesn’t like children, we find that his “freedom spreading” experiment in Iraq is still stuck in the you’ve got to bleed for freedom mode. Three car bombs exploded in quick succession in Amarah on Wednesday, killing at least 41 people and ...

Des Moines Register excluding Kucinich from final Iowa debate

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

And they are doing it on a lousy technicality  : He didn’t open an office in the state with paid employees..o nly volunteers apparently. But Keyes was allowed in the Rethug debate yesterday? Hell I didn’t even know that fuckwit was running, although according to Eugene Robinson last night on Countdown ...

News From The Campaign Trail: Working To Change Florida

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

Hey gang. It’s been a busy month or so since I last wrote about working on a campaign this election season. Holiday Parades, meet-and-gre ets, and all the things that keep a campaign busy are in high gear. I have to say it’s more fun than I ever imagined. If you ...
