How Racial Profiling Gets It Wrong All Of The Time

March 15th, 2010 · No Comments · Democracy, Politics, Racism, War on Terror, america

I’m, for one — I know it’s not politically correct to say it — I believe in racial and ethnic profiling. I think if you’re looking at people getting on an airplane and you have X amount of resources to get into it, you get at the targets, and not my wife. And I just [...]

MEEP MEEP– December 23rd, 2009: I will freely admit that I am in the tank for Barack Obama.  I believe his combination of pragmatism, measured cool, intelligence, and willingness to find the common ground–were exactly what this country needed after eight years of the Bush administration’s feckless policies, and unilateral bullishness.  I am not in [...]

Republicans Lament II

December 24th, 2009 · No Comments · Democracy, Democrats, Health Care, Republicans, america

From the Confederate Yankee: Robert Byrd has been around a very long time, and his many decades of service have made West Virginia a wonderful state in which to manufacture methamphetamine or frame the locals for murder. But it’s time for Senator to do the right thing, and expire. It isn’t too much to ask [...]

Friday’s Funny Politics

December 18th, 2009 · No Comments · Democracy, Health Care, Republicans, america

This isn’t quite that funny.  It’s more amusing, in a David Cronenberg sort of way (He’s not really amusing).  I’ve often wondered why some conservatives believe that God and religion are the sole province of their party.  Does God love Republicans more than Independents and Democrats?  Anyone with half a brain cell would say no, [...]

The Genius That Is Kevin McCullough

December 15th, 2009 · No Comments · Democrats, News, Politics, Republicans, Uncategorized, america

I’ve written very little about the Tiger Woods’ imbroglio, but I never considered it significant–  thus, I wrote about it with my tongue firmly planted in my cheek– refusing to prattle on like the rest of the civilized world is.  Then I came across this article by Kevin McCullough of Townhall, a conservative political and [...]

Cheney Accuses Obama Of Treason

December 1st, 2009 · No Comments · Democracy, News, Politics, Republicans, america

Andrew Sullivan thinks Cheney is speaking treason: “Here’s a guy without much experience, who campaigned against much of what we put in place … and who now travels around the world apologizing,” Cheney said. “I think our adversaries — especially when that’s preceded by a deep bow … — see that as a sign of [...]

Whatever

November 30th, 2009 · No Comments · Democracy, News, Politics, america

This is a comment from my boy Ta-nehisi Coates’ blog: If she didn’t have a good chance you liberals would not keep running stories daily headlines about her not being qualified, nor would your supporters spend most of their time responding or commenting on how she doesn’t have a chance.  Funny how an attractive, intelligent [...]
