Who Should I Vote For?

I have been listening to the pure bull pucky of the Republican presidential candidates and combining this with the things I sincerely dislike about the the Progressives and the pretend Democrat Obama and this has resulted in two sentiments.

First, anyone who compromises their speech for the sake of electability is traitor to his or [...]

They Are So F.O.S.

Take a read of this article: Republicans Offer Their Agenda for Midterm Elections – NYTimes.com and then read some of primary documents.

Then sit back for a moment and recall the Republican The Contract On America [sic] from 1994 and then recall Newt Gingrich, the dirtbag who left his wife while she was in the hospital recoputertaing from [...]

More Proof: Americans Can’t Do Math

Reading along in the NYTimes today about these closures in Arizona – a state where no people should live anyway. It would seems people are up in arms that their rest stops are closed due to budget cuts.

Two things came to mind

Pee in the woods/side of the road/sand dunes/cactus patches If you want [...]

World’s Smallest Political Quiz

In talking with people about what is mean to be a true American conservative leaning into Libertarianism, I frequently challenge people to think about where they stand on the spectrum. I learned where I stool by taking this quiz many many many years ago: World’s Smallest Political Quiz.

Memorial Day

When your armed forces are seen more as an illegitimate arm of a neo-fascists regime it is hard to celebrate.

But we Americans find a way. To quote my local Israeli, “You celebrate your war heros by running huge sales on cars and crap you don’t need, then go on vacation, BBQ something and sit in the car for 6 hours?”

Yup, we are The Americans.

One More Time: I Told You So!

This from CNN.com:

Seventy percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey say things are going badly in the United States. The last time the public gave the country’s condition such a bad rating was January 1992 in the last year in office of the last president named Bush.  

Really? Huh. I would have [...]

One More Time: Being Right Is SOOOO Nice!

As you might be reading about our President’s recent speech in which he continues to show his detachment from reality.

From the Wash Post:

Historian Robert Dallek, who has written about the comparisons of Iraq to Vietnam, accused Bush of twisting history. ‘It just boggles my mind, the distortions I feel are perpetrated here by [...]

Why We Are Doomed

Today is a bad day for Jews. Traditionally we are all sad because we lost our Temple. In general, the more, well, modern amongst us, see this as a time to be insightful and think about the big plan as manifested through events then, now and in the middle – we are talking about 2000+ [...]

Can We Try To Get This Right?

Short and direct:

Fossil fuels are bad for us, bad for the fish, bad for the GWOT.

We need to reduce our dependency on them.

We also have a labor/farm/immigration issue here in the US of A.

How are these related?

Well, as we need more grains and crops to make alternative fuels, we increase [...]

We Were Right, er Left!

HAHAHAHA – Do a little dance, we were right:

After offering a bleak assessment of the Bush administration’s strategy in Iraq, Senator Richard G. Lugar of Indiana, the ranking Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee, said today that he was urging lawmakers and President Bush to change course quickly to protect a further erosion of [...]

Fall Guy

Listening to the verdict made me laugh, G-d Bless America, please we need every blessing we can get.

Libby obstructed justice, committed perjury and made false statements when he told FBI agents and the grand jury investigating the leak that he had possessed no official knowledge

I appears that Libby is the fall guy for [...]

This Is So Much Fun! Nuclear Annihilation & Climate Change

G-d Bless Rand:

President George W. Bush’s most recent address to the American people on Iraq may be the scariest presidential message since Ronald Reagan announced that he had launched a nuclear strike against the Soviet Union. Reagan was just kidding. Bush is not.

Immediate reaction to the president’s speech has focused on the intended [...]

Yes, We Are Not All Stupid!

We win. America Wins. The World Wins. Thank G-d we finally showed the world we are not all idiots. Democrats are on the way back.

Now!!!! No blow jobs, keep the curruption down, and fight for America. The America we all want, open, free, equitable, Christian right wing bullshit free, and a better world citizen.

[...]

Please Vote Republican

Yes! Please do. Why? Because only if we let them make this country the worst place to live in the world will their corrupt idiotic ideology be exposed for what it truly is.

It simple isn’t enough that people are doubting the war. Why should they? Is isn’t like we were lied to. It isn’t [...]

UPDATE: Do we need election monitors?

Take a listen to today’s The Brian Lehrer Show (podcast):

Back to the Future, Mark Crispin Miller, professor of media studies at New York University and author, Fooled Again (Basic Books 2005) accuses George Bush of electoral fraud in Ohio

And if that is not enough, check out his blog.

Not bothered yet? How about [...]
