Yep, Orwell’s Bastard has it right. I will go further in guessing that President Obama is not just a wimpocrat, he’s actually a Rethuglican who only became a wimpocrat, probably because he wanted to become America’s first black president. Simple as that. He would never have been able to do that as a . . . → Read More: Now, I Think I Understand Why Obama Ran as A Democrat

Tea-Baggin’ Congressional Rep, Joe Walsh Believes in Austerity, All Right
Including imposing it on his own children. Before I go into that, Let’s tune into some typical tea-baggin’ swill of his:
“I won’t place one more dollar of debt upon the backs of my kids and grandkids unless we structurally reform the way this town spends money!” Walsh says directly into the camera in . . . → Read More: Tea-Baggin’ Congressional Rep, Joe Walsh Believes in Austerity, All Right

Seems Sen John McCain had it and he ain’t a takin’ it anymore. He’s mad at fellow Rethuglicans and tea-bagger hit parade. Don’t worry, folks, he ain’t crossin’ the floor to the Democrats–he had no kind words for them neither.
In a Senate floor speech laced with sarcasm and stings, the Arizona Republican . . . → Read More: John McCain Throws The Tea-Baggers Under The Bus

CK told you earlier today about the vile, unprofessional, and despicable conduct of Rep Allen Watts. Well, the idiot has done himself one better, telling a female Democratic Representative to in effect get back in the kitchen and shut the fuck up.
Here’s the email that speaks it all about Allen Watts and . . . → Read More: Allen West to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz: “You are not a lady”, “shut the heck up”

Rookie Rethuglican, Allen West (R-Florida) has perhaps just made Michele Bachman look like a Rhodes Scholar in his latest diatribe. He says, get ready for it, boys ‘n’ girls, supporters of President Barak Obama are “a threat to the gene pool”.
I believe we are headed towards the ultimate ideological clash in America. . . . → Read More: Perhaps The Most Outrageous Statement Made From a Rethuglican Tea-bagger To Date

There are only three clinics that provide abortions left in the state of Kansas. That is three too many for the Rethuglican Kansas governor. like many other state governors, this winner is finding new fangled, creative ways of circumventing Roe v Wade. They’re doing it by taking a new liking to red tape . . . → Read More: Rethuglicans Despise Regulations Except To Regulate What They Don’t Like & Andrea Mrozek Says That Roe V Wade is Anti-Democratic

Yes, I will probably need brain bleach for having suggested the idea, but honestly, I think the she/he devil in a cocktail dress may be on to something here!

At the time of his death, apparently so. According to his personal assistant, Fred Seaman, Lennon was a ‘closet’ Rethuglican and fan of Ronald Ray-gun. Mr. Seaman also says that Lennon was also a tad embarrassed over his ‘former radicalism’ and apparently, in 79 and 80, not the same guy who wrote “Imagine”. . . . → Read More: Did John Lennon Sell Out Before His Death?

This is a status message seen on Facebook by a family member who normally doesn’t utter political statements:
So let me get this straight…Kelsey Grammer can end a 15yr marriage by phone, Larry King is on divorce #9, Britney Spears had a 55hr marriage, Jesse James and Tiger Woods, while married, were having sex with everyone, 53% of Americans get divorced and 30-60% cheat on their spouses. Yet, same-sex marriage is going to destroy the institution of marriage? Really?
THat would be referring partially to some of the statements coming from New York State opponents of same-sex marriage, which was legalized yesterday.
Just look at Canada. Has the institution […]

Given we seem to be stuck in fairly heady economic times it seems worthwhile to me to put out another post on the subject of employment, labour force growth and unemployment. In this post I am going to revisit the … Continue reading →

Remember that gawd awful image below? Is it just me? Or does he really look diabolical? He looks like he’s about to devour that invisible baby.
Yes, #gregfultzisacreep, that billboard boy has been ordered to take down his billboard immediately.
But Fultz’s attorney said his client is adamant about protecting his . . . → Read More: Fetus Billboard Boy Would Rather Go To Jail Than Take Down His Billboard

I have to disagree with my blogging colleague Jymn over his way about the different ways the Democratic Party and Republican Party handle scandals.
I’d rather a party not lower itself to the level of the other guys and say “well – they did it too!”. It’s not on the same scale of this sex scandal, but the Conservative Party up here has often whined like that about “the Liberals did it too, or were far worse” when pointed out their various indiscretions.. not exactly inspiring stuff for a party that promised to do better and clean things up. It didn’t affect them this election, but it will […]

These are odd times. Not one policy seems to get floated these days which does not include in the tag line that it will be good for economic growth. And it is not just tax cuts for the rich or … Continue reading →

So what’s it like to be an activist from afar? In short, it’s not easy. It does, however, bring into relief some of the reasons why I helped to create Antigone Magazine. Expressing oneself politically is a right and a privilege AND a responsibility. I remain convinced now more than

I am still in shock and have been pinching myself to make sure I am awake after watching this O’Reilly video here at the Raw Story. When O’Reilly starts making sense on Iraq we can be sure it’s really over for Bush in Iraq. Meanwhile two leading Repub Senators have
