Laura Richardson Strikes Again
As reported by Steve Lopez in the Los Angeles Times, Laura Richardson is back at doing what she does best, wasting taxpayer’s dollars bestowing useless, expensive perks on herself and her cronies.
She flew her entire Washington, DC office staff of 20 people, including herself out to Long Beach, put them up in a four star [...]
Klanservative Education: the Re-Segregation Movement
The Rushpubliscums are always claiming that they want to “take us back” to some kind of American Utopia that they claim existed before them damn libruls came around with their COMMANIST notions about tolerance and economic justice.
I know that Rushpubliscums often lie, but in this one particular case, they’re telling the [...]
By request, my thoughts on former Congressman Eric Massa…
Morgan from Vancouver, Chris from Hot-lanta and Jaime from Chi-Town requested a bitch’s thoughts on Eric Massa.
You asked for it, so let’s jump right on in.
I didn’t know who the fuck Eric Massa was…or that the House Ethics Committee was investigating him…or what the hell he was being investigated for…merciful heavens…until Eric Massa lost his [...]

apologies to david bowie….
i had a conversation with a blog buddy of mine the other day about the rapidity of change that feels as if it occurred over the past decade. in fact, we both agreed that it felt as if we missed a couple of decades somewhere and ended up here. now, [...]
And Still…Nothing Makes Sense
Folks griping about some redneck in Tennessee (well actually he was a CEO of Nashville’s tourism) comparing Michelle Obama to a chimpanzee. Makes sense if he was a politician but I suspect there are other things happening that need to have the public’s attention turned to this “outrageous behavior” and away from what we should [...]
Liz Cheney- douchebag McCarthyite
This nasty skank really takes the cake. She has the audacity to go after the lawyers who upheld their oath and provided the best representation they could for their clients. She is a lawyer and therefore very familiar with the oath. The following video from Friday’s Countdown show, hosted by Lawrence O’Donnell, [...]
The MSM Is Hyping Caribou Barbie? Say It Ain’t So!
I find this story to be quite plausible, if taken in the general context of the media’s attempts to make Caribou Barbie into something she isn’t.
You know what I mean. They have been her faithful servant every step of the way as she’s tried to portray herself as intelligent, down to earth, “just like you,” [...]
The Perfect Game
In baseball, a perfect game is defined when a baseball pitcher goes an entire 9-inning game without letting any player from the opposing team to reach base (there are 8 ways to reach base). It is one of the most remarkable feats in all of sports. Not only does the pitcher have to prevent any [...]
Health Care Talkie Thingy May Have Done Some Good
“I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems. On the cross, he forgave the people who crucified him. Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving. I don’t know what makes people so cruel. Try being a gay woman in the Middle East — you’re as good as dead.” -Elton [...]
“Centrist” America
As any non-kool-ade-drinking observer would see over the past years, the US Government has drifted radically to the right. The right wing, Big Money, Neocon interests of the past three decades have given us two corporate influenced parties to run our, or should I say THEIR, government.
The present Democratic Party occupies the same part of [...]
The Ass-Backwards Logic Of a “Compassionate Conservative”
I think even children can probably understand the concept of having enough money to pay your bills. If you are an established person, being able to stay where you are depends on being able to pay your bills. The inability to pay your bills means that you are quite likely to find yourself a transient, [...]
Political analysts serve whom exactly?
The Political analysts that appear on Fox, MSNBC, CNN and other news outlets will have you believe that they are all fair and balanced in their analysis of specific issues or incidents.
Nothing could be farther from the truth in most cases. Many times, these folks have another job as a Lobbyist, Consultant or sit on [...]
UCSD Teach-In is today and the home training fail that inspired it…
So sorry for the delay in posting this, y’all!
As you may already know, a group of UCSD students executed a rare synchronized home training fail of massive proportions when they decided to post the following Facebook message to UCSD’s Greek Community “in honor of Black History Month.”
Description
February marks a very important month in American society. [...]
of tempests and tea parties
i have been thinking in broad strokes lately— and conversely, i have been hunkering down and working on personal issues. it would suffice to say that i am just plain exhausted. i have a feeling many folks are worn down and worn out by life- and it just shouldn’t be that way. [...]
Lies of Omission, Or Just Plain Lies: FOX “News” In a Nutshell
Like most of you, I was aware of a significant investment in Murdoch’s “News” Corp by a Saudi investor. I wondered what that might cause at the FOX “News” Channel, because FOX “News” has been virulently pushing the “scary brown Muslim murderer” meme for some time (and trying to tie that meme like hell to [...]
