Cult Leaders: Human-Induced Climate Change is Real - 11 months ago

→ Is this insult? Or irony?

13

Bend Over for GM - 11 months ago

→ I agree. Very clever, well mocked and nicely mashed. Snaps to Britethorn.

Face the Nation: Cheney’s Denial - 11 months ago

→ Nice piece C Rich. Balanced.

8

Bush, The Real Success - 12 months ago

→ That's a thoughtful post, and overdue. Collecting his successes in one place helps us see the positives which, in and of themselves, are hard to deny and should be celebrated as vigorously as his failures are demonized.

McConnell Puts the Brakes on Stimulus Plan - 12 months ago

→ It's surprising we haven't seen more about this. All we've been hearing is how big, when and who will be the winners, while the "if" has been forgotten. Obama is still subject to the checks and balances (though not by a lot), and the filibuster...

Hitler Adopts a New Theme Song - 12 months ago

→ Wow that is just so twisted. I don't usually do speechless, but ya got me!

14

Gay Scientists Isolate Christian Gene - 12 months ago

→ Very interesting! Heh.

1

Please Don't Divorce Us - 12 months ago

→ This is just a transparent appeal to the heart, probably directed at those immune to reason, science, fact, and constitutional imperatives. It's come to this.

2

White House accuses New York Times of 'gross negligence' - 12 months ago

→ I completely agree. I saw this "legacy tour" once, for a band called Spinal Tap. They had great plans to build a mighty Stonehenge replica, but things didn't work out and they had nobody to blame but themselves. And as the tour drew to a close, the...

Rice says Obama likely to follow Bush on foreign policy - 12 months ago

→ And oh yes, how do I know this? Because Dr. Rice went to great lengths yesterday morning to implore us to believe that America's standing in the world had been greatly enhanced by our recent foreign policy. I don't think she's been any more the problem than...

Rice says Obama likely to follow Bush on foreign policy - 12 months ago

→ "Ms Rice’s words could damp expectations that the incoming administration will represent a complete break with its predecessor on foreign policy." Well, the only people I know who ever expected a "complete break" are the haters who claim to believe that somehow: nuclear weapons proliferation will be...

White House Philosophy Stoked Mortgage Bonfire - 12 months ago

→ Apart from the president-elect preaching unpopular messages of personal responsibility during the campaign (which were more social than economic), the best consumer advice may have come from the Pope. Opening a Synod of Bishops in the Vatican the Pope referred to a passage from St Matthew's...

1

Bush-Era Abortion Rules Face Possible Reversal - 12 months ago

→ These lame-duck decrees lack the ring of democracy. As a president's option pricing approaches zero the office's powers might decrease accordingly. Just an idea. The very notion of midnight-hour regulation I find troubling, all the more so when overtly controversial.

5

Time: Person of the Year- Obama! - 12 months ago

→ Would you please add a decoder ring to your profile? Or is this message intended only for your cell?

Iraqi journalist hurls shoes at 'dog' Bush - 12 months ago

→ Did either of the shoes have a phone in the heel?

12

Green Eggs and Ham Jesse Jackson - 12 months ago

→ That is simply hilarious. Great post.

9

The Three Detroit Stooges - 13 months ago

→ Another terrific piece. I failed to connect the dots to conclude that if Cerberus won't invest in its company, why should we? If there's a bailout (and I reluctantly agree there should be) then the privately-held Chrysler should be subject to different terms than the...

1

get your barrie souvenirs heeeyah! - 13 months ago

→ I don't comment much, but am moved to say I think that's an excellent post!

3

Biological terror attack likely by 2013 - 13 months ago

→ Hah. Must be a ghost in the machine!

3

'Big 3' bailout: senate showdown looms - 1 year ago

→ That would risk pushing the restart button on the whole industry. When my cpu is hung and i shut down hard as a last resort, i do so with fear of what might result, and that's the case here. The legacy costs could be overwritten, the...

2

Spam back in the can, for now - 1 year ago

→ I don't know - not my thing - but would also like to hear from anybody who can explain why this switch wasn't flipped off a b-billion terabytes ago. Lemme plug a site i've enjoyed for a while, with users who tell the most twisted,...

2

Alan Keyes Sues for Obama's Citizenship Documents - 1 year ago

→ I thought he got an official response when the Hawaii officials came forward in the last week of the campaign and said they had examined the cert and that it is legit. It's never over 'til it's over, though, and i still wonder why he...

5

CNN Hologram TV First - 1 year ago

→ They did it bcuz they could, and I've enjoyed the sense of humour they've brought to their coverage, mostly AC-induced. His floating pie chart graphic during the primaries got the ball rolling.

5

Obama faces the nation - 1 year ago

→ OK Wandler - here's a vote against 'the robotization of Barack Obama', which I am happy to second. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/albert-brooks/lighten-up-america_b_142287.html.

14

Eisenhower Campaign Ad from 1952 - 1 year ago

→ And then the Mad Men found Obama Girl. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
