A “Bad News / Good News” Situation

Filed in National by on January 6, 2008 5 Comments

First the bad news: Worldwide economic train wreck. Now the good news: No more Republican money grubbing trying to pass as economic theory. Also, far less DLC corporate asskissing* from toadies like Tom Carper. Too bad we’ll have to endure the first to get the second – but I’ll take it. *Asskissing grossly understates the […]

Government Logic

Our commerical aircraft were attacked by guys with box cutters, so we decide to put anti-missle shit on them to ….uhhmm protect them….from box cutter brandishing terrorists. It’s the same kind of awesome logic that we used when we invaded Iraq as a result of being attacked by people from Saudi Arabia.

I’m sitting here watching “Man of the Year” with Robin Williams, Lewis Black, and Chris Walken.  It is a great movie believe it or not.  Essentially an Independent tired of big business runs for President.  It is full of things you wish a politicians would say.   It also seems to have the conspiracy theory slant […]

Josh Marshall at TPM found this little nugget on Huckabee. If you remember and know Bush and the rest use little “code” words to reassure their base it’s nuts to say that it doesn’t happen. But the more research you do the more you learn about how it infects his speech. So onto Huckabee. Go […]

Okay. Here is my thinking, Johnny D is taking part in this ongoing Mike Castle, Tom Carper circle jerk. So why has he been left off the hook when our failure to replace Castle is His failure? As party chair he should be: – Recruiting, – Training, and – Supporting a top challenger. Castle is […]

Of course it probably isn’t very hard to sound smart when your foil,  that complete nit wit Rick Jensen,  keeps yammering about the fact that the crime of phone jamming is  “funny.”

Boy. And I thought I hated Iowa for giving us John Kerry

Dear Iowa Republicans, I’ll put this in language even your tiny little Iowa brains can understand: What the f*** is wrong with you people? The news coming out of Des Moines (literally, French for “tell me about the rabbits, George”) tonight is distressing in the extreme. 32 years ago, your Democratic brethren took one look […]

It said, among other things, that: It is vital in a democratic society that the public business be performed in an open and public manner so that our citizens shall have the opportunity to observe the performance of public officials and to monitor […]
