I’m not even going to bother linking to the latest round of stories about the planned government bail-out of banks. Suffice it to say that the news today makes it almost impossible to avoid the thought that the economy is in the tank. Now the very people who put it there are going to take […]

Everyone’s a Terrorist
February 1st, 2007 · No Comments
As I’ve mentioned a few times recently, it’s been difficult for me to find a reason to blog. I’m somewhat overwhelmed by the inanity of the situation in the United States these days. What kind of people have we become? Just how stupid are we, really? “It’s almost too easy to be a terrorist these […]

Freedom of Speech Okay: “Out There”
September 29th, 2006 · No Comments
These are really sad times in which we’re living. It’s gotten so bad that, frankly, I see almost no reason to blog anymore. Too many of us “ordinary people” who never commit crimes or do anything wrong are willingly moving ourselves closer to the day when that won’t matter. Yesterday, an ordinary American, Ryan Bird, […]

Really, this pretty much says it all: And recently, two former AT&T workers told The New York Times that the company’s facility in St. Louis had a separate room, protected by double doors and retinal/fingerprint scanners, where “a government agency” monitored network traffic. — Levine, “What Does the NSA Know About You?” (July 24, 2006) […]

Are We Safe Yet?

This is the sort of thing people just don’t understand about the new wave which allows for the abrogation of constitutional liberty and flips the Constitution on its head. Here is a guy who spent a lot of time hanging out in Iraq, potentially getting mixed up with terrorists. And when he arrives home on […]

As my wife said, “I don’t think Soledad was ready for this.” And, really, there’s nothing I need to add to it. Berg’s father said it all. ? ???Special thanks to my wife and friend, Bunny Chafowitz, for emailing the link for this story to me. Update: Bob Marcotte found another interview involving Mr. Berg. […]

Stealing America
June 2nd, 2006 · No Comments
The more time goes by, the more it appears to be true that the Republicans — who may control a bare majority of the electorate at times — have stolen more than our nation’s resources. Yes, I know we don’t care that they’ve stolen many American lives by tricking us into backing their war for […]

Promises, Promises

President Bush had vowed to re-assess the need to keep killing Americans in Iraq — nevertheless stopping short of promising withdrawal of them — after the Iraqis set up their own (hehehe) government. Today, it appears, he has completed that task. Yahoo!’s AP news feed reports: U.S. moves 1,500 reserve troops to Iraq. While it […]

The Art of Distraction
May 15th, 2006 · 1 Comment
It may be about time to change this category name from “The Bush Regime” to what the Bush Regime goal for America is quickly becoming: “Police State.” Yahoo! News today reports that President Bush has decided to militarize the United States borders — well, the one between us and the brown people, anyway. What many […]

Well, Peter Goss has been given the ax. Oh, sure, I know, I know. The White House and Mr. Goss are telling us that he resigned willingly. Uh, right. Mr. Goss had to go; he wasn’t enough of a patsy, apparently. Stand up to the Administration’s Bad Boys and you’re going to get your ass […]
