I couldn’t resist. In the interest of fairness, this one is from the Republicans (psssst! Boner! The answer to your final question is YES!): Who says I can’t be fair? But the proverbial cherry on top? Check this out: RNC Clown College Click on the photo or the above link to see all 28! Uploaded [...]

History! – Part 3

“As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, [...]

History! – Part 2

Photo courtesy PDPhoto.org Its… Finally… Almost… Over…. Where will you be when President Obama takes the oath of office? Me? I’ll be at work, dammit.

Rahmbo

On Rosh Hashana (the Jewish New Year), several weeks ago, MJ and I went to my brother’s house for the traditional holiday dinner. I discovered several nasty things about my family that evening. Not about my brother, mind you, but his wife, her sister, and her husband. Namely, that my sister-in-law’s sister’s husband is a [...]

I have a favorite antagonist – normally the sweetest guy on the planet – who, if you were to judge solely by the e-mails he forwards [...]

Be Afraid. Be Very Afraid.

“Opening up the health insurance market to more vigorous nationwide competition, as we have done over the last decade in banking, would provide more choices of innovative products less burdened by the worst excesses of state-based regulation.”— “Better Care at Lower Cost for Every American” by John McCain in Contingencies (Magazine of the American Academy [...]

P.S. – I Love You, Too

So, if you’ve been following along, on Tuesday, I posted about some pro-Obama mass e-mails I had received from a friend. Those e-mails had been replied to by someone else on the mailing list, a woman who had obviously imbibed the Republican/fundamentalist/right-wing Kool Aid. Repeatedly.
