More Proximity Politics

The little man rises up on his toes again.  It’s an uncontrollable urge to be bigger than he really is, if even for a split second. The little arms shoot out in tandem, fingers splayed as wide as they will go;  the gesture is brief, tentative, and awkward, out of sync with his emphasis:  “Sentor [sic] Obama took a very …

ANOTHER INSULTING ATROCITY!

You ASSHOLES may run but you can’t hide This bailout’s mission is to protect the OBSCENE amount of wealth that has been accumulated in the last eight years. It’s to protect the top shareholders who own and control corporate America. It’s to make sure their yachts and mansions and “way of life” go uninterrupted while the rest of America suffers …

McCain “demonstrated a greater command”?! What debate were you watching?
Will somebody give McCain a frakkin’ “seal” so he can move the debate into the realm of adult dialogue? And will the person(s) advising McCreep who laugh everytime he says “I didn’t get voted Miss Congeniality, you know” please have your lips sown shut?

Excerpts from Mark Crispin Miller:  (my emphasis) The choice of Sarah Palin has been widely and repeatedly assailed …

I Lived In A Box.

Guess who took this picture. John McCain still thinks someone wants to put him in a box. “When you’ve lived in a box,  you “only have time for right,” says a deep cowboy voice oozing authenticity, while the orgasmically large flat screen shows the aged maverick returning to his Vietnam prison cell and “forgiving” his captors— and their nation— for, …

Fish Love Oil Rigs

“The fish love to be around those rigs.”  This means they think off-shore drilling is not only safe but necessary. But will they love to be around China’s oil rigs off Cuba?  You need to ask?? More than 600,000 Americans have lost their jobs since January. Home foreclosures are skyrocketing, and home values are plunging. Wall Street is hemorrhaging like …
