Truly Scary
July 28th, 2003 · 1 Comment
Creative Loafing Atlanta | NEWS & VIEWS | CAREFUL: THE FB-EYE MAY BE WATCHING Remember that freedom of speech includes the freedom to read. This is a story that’s, quite frankly, both difficult to believe and not difficult to believe at all these days. And that’s what makes it so scary.

Face Lift

The Winkola website (a.k.a. “Unspun™”) is about to undergo a facelift. The first movement in that direction is that (as you can see) the blog is currently the main page of the site. I haven’t decided whether to leave it that way or not. But, for now, that’s how it is. After all, it’s the […]

There’s no way that can be said without sounding partisan. “Partisan”, though, is exactly what the rush to make […]

July 7th, 2003 · 5 Comments
Tonight, on that bastion of intellectual thought, Hannity & Colmes, I learned that I’m unpatriotic because I embrace some liberal ideals, such as participatory democracy. This is a terrible thing because some liberals attempting to engage conservatives in a debate over contemporary issues have also used provocative language, claiming to be embarrassed to be Americans.
