"Self-Radicalized"

December 28, 2009

If a prominent national event happens…..the arrogant, narcissistic chump Joe Lieberman, of the Lieberman-4-Lieberman Party, usually runs to stand in front of the nearest Fox camera. Recently, during the buildup to the Senate vote on health care reform, Holy Joe was as pleased as he could be with himself for making himself the center of [...]

Very Disappointing

December 11, 2009

What if The Reverend, at the end of 2009, were to start defending the George W. Bush presidency? That would be quite a turnabout, wouldn't it?
Pigs will fly, of course, before I would even consider doing anything so irresponsible. However, for President Barack Obama….defending the George W. Bush presidency is becoming a full time job.
Here's [...]

Dangerous National Threat

August 19, 2009

Much has been said about the young black man outside of an Arizona health care reform town hall. The one who had an AR-15 semi-automatic assault weapon strapped to his back.
Some rather imaginative conservatives have suggested that the assault weapon toter was an Obama plant. The man was black and Obama is black, so, [...]

Pride In Our President, Part 1

June 6, 2009

The Obama speech from Cairo, Egypt…
The relationship between Islam and the West includes centuries of co-existence and cooperation, but also conflict and religious wars. More recently, tension has been fed by colonialism that denied rights and opportunities to many Muslims, and a Cold War in which Muslim-majority countries were too often treated as proxies without [...]

The Republican War On Empathy

May 27, 2009

When Republicans first declared their National War Against Empathy From the Court (NWAEFC), I found it amazingly out of touch with basic common sense. But it's Republicans we're dealing with here.
Bitter conservatives instantly attacked Obama's mention of empathy as a quality he would be looking for in a new Supreme Court Justice. Of all [...]

President O-bush-a

May 23, 2009

First, let me state without reservation or qualification, that having Barack Obama as President is a far superior situation for America than if John McCain, with his full-throated, neo-conservative military and foreign policy ideology, were guiding the ship of state.
That said….not only has Obama followed Bush/Cheney footprints on state secrets, transparency, and, now, indefinite [...]

Leaks In The Senate

May 21, 2009

After refusing to limit the interest banksters can charge credit card holders, the Senate went on to pass a more bankster-friendly credit card bill Tuesday. The bill was a lame effort, barely a wrist slap to an industry who regularly bribes our politicians with campaign cash to do it's bidding. The bill passed 90-5.
The Senate [...]

Pelosi: The New WMD

May 16, 2009

As the country was being deceptively propagandized by the Bush administration during 2002 and early 2003, the focus of the propaganda boiled down to Saddam Hussein's alleged possession of dangerous weapons. WMD. The Bush administration pushed the WMD message repeatedly. Chemical and biological weapons……mobile weapons labs….smoking gun mushroom clouds…..nuclear program….it was a constant drumbeat.
But that [...]

The Reckoning

April 23, 2009

Today's Akron Beacon Journal editorial has it wrong. That comes as no surprise to me. Those who write the editorials for the Beacon have been way behind the Bush curve for years. There would be no reason to expect a change now.
The editorial calls the Bush-Cheney torture regime "a failure of imagination". Sorry…. [...]

GOP: Still A Criminal Enterprise

April 7, 2009

Nothing really new in the New York Times article today entitled, "Report Outlines Medical Workers' Role in Torture"…..
Medical personnel were deeply involved in the abusive interrogation of terrorist suspects held overseas by the Central Intelligence Agency, including torture, and their participation was a “gross breach of medical ethics,” a long-secret report by the International Committee [...]
