Craptacular Egomania!!!

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Maybe I'm just feeling a mite testy, could be that staring over the edge of financial upheaval has got me cynical, but frankly, the Clintons "me, me, Me, Me, ME!!!" has just got to stop. Does it always - ALWAYS - have to be about the Clintons? This is the question on ...

From His Mouth to God’s Ear

Monday, August 18th, 2008

Yesterday I was at Mass, and the Homily was about racism. Father Robert talked about how when Kennedy was running for president, the prevailing meme was that he'd doom the nation to Papacy, and once elected would follow the Pope's edict and make America a Catholic nation. Sounds ludicrous now, ...

Pot vs. Kettle: OMG!! They’re Black!

Friday, August 8th, 2008

This ranks right up there with ‘teh stupid'. When a weary and jet-lagged Barack Obama took the stage on the last day of the UNITY Journalists of Color convention in Chicago last month, most of the attendees had already left. But there was still a healthy crowd of over 2,500 there ...

The MSM, AWOL: Reason # 2,347

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

Isn't the problem -- well, one of the many, many problems -- with our awful president the fact that he never changes his mind about anything no matter how strong the evidence? Isn't one of the problems with the new John McCain the fact that he keeps changing his mind ...

Alaska: Looking Good in Blue

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Sitting Alaska Senator Ted Stevens was indicted today. Good. I think Alaskans deserve to know the whole truth, and I think they deserve a break from their ‘good old boy network’ chains. Stevens was trailing his challenger Mark Begich in the polls by 8-10 points prior to the indictment announcement. What’s ...

Power Tool

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

Digby nailed this. We are the vomiting sisterhood of the anti-brutality pants. A tool has no value when you don't know how to use it. It becomes dangerous when you refuse to learn how to use it safely, and when you completely disregard the knowledge of its safe operation, YOU become ...

Bat Shit Crazy, That’s What That Is!

OMG! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ...

About that Poll…

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

We have two new Senate polls, both surprising. In Minnesota, Al Franken seems to have caught up with Sen. Norm Coleman (R-MN), in contrast to many earlier polls showing Coleman safely ahead. Similar, in New Hampshire, Sen. John Sununu (R-NH) appears to have caught up to former governor Jeanne Shaheen ...

Rock Star Factor 10

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

Last night I hit 6th Steet in Austin to go the the party Kos hosted - free drinks and Zydeco. That is a wnning combination in my book. So winning, in fact, that when I looked at the clock this morning, I had to force myself to get moving to ...
