If you’re reading this, then there is little statistical doubt that you agree with me that the election of our 45th president is both alarming and deeply shameful. If you don’t agree with me about that, I’m unable to process that information – and from what I read, that is precisely the problem. We’ll get […]
When the conventions came and went without a noticeable peep from Occupy Wall Street, I had written them off for dead. But when it was reported that there would be a 1 year anniversary event (an occu-versary, if you will), I wanted to go see it. My office is only a 15-20 minute walk from […]
Many things have been said about Paul Ryan lately … including that he is good looking, which boggles my mind. But the one that is beginning to make the most sense to me is the description of him as the “intellectual soul of the Republican party.” Originally meant as a compliment, the statement resonates deeper […]

(Aside: how is the number 1 cable news […]
I do not think the shooting in Tucson is Palin’s fault … anymore than I think John Lennon’s death is J.D. Salinger’s fault (and there is certainly more of a direct connection to the assailant in that case). Although the fact that Palin’s site and Twitter have been scrubbed demonstrates that people in her camp at least sense a connection. […]
a) The factually unsupported narrative that government spending is out of control (made even more irresponsible when it’s coupled with blaming the current administration for not creating more jobs). b) The fact that the underlying argument of the Right has a modicum of merit … that it appears that even a supposedly game-changing movement like […]
Clearly, this is a piece of political theater. It’s still sort of breath taking.
