Political songs – P!nk’s “Dear Mr. President”

Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

What can I say, but wow, wow, wow… I am doing some work from home, and hit up some new stuff in iTunes. I really haven’t heard much in the form of protest music, and then I stumbled upon P!nk’s “Dear Mr. President”. All I can say is WOW. She did an awesome job, as [...]

Conservapedia: A place for the intellectually incurious

Friday, July 20th, 2007

I admit, I like to play with the conservatives from time to time. It just reinforces in me that they are the intellectually incurious; they refuse to look at the world for what it is, and instead make up their own facts and own reality.

I’m doing what I can myself, to help put a stop to global warming. Now, though, I’m a bit distressed that I missed Live Earth New York. Specifically, Melissa [...]

Republicans HATE OUR TROOPS

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

Newcomer Virginia Senator Jim Webb offered an amendment, known as the “troop protection amendment”, that would have put limitations on when troops could have been pulled back to combat.  It basically guaranteed that when a soldier was on leave from the war, that they would have a guaranteed time at home before they were deployed.

Wow, wow, wow…

Monday, July 9th, 2007

Did you see the news that Cindy Sheehan is threatening to run against Nancy Pelosi, if Ms. Pelosi does not introduce articles of impeachment by July 23rd? WOW. Honestly, I think this is a GOOD thing, for two reasons.  First of all, I know Nancy Pelosi is very well known, and is respected in her [...]

Olbermann is so damn articulate

Wednesday, July 4th, 2007

As I sit here stewing in the events of the past few days – events that have gotten me so upset that no amounting of writing or primal screaming will help ease – I saw a link about a special comment made by Keith Olbermann.  The man is an articulate genious, and you can hear [...]
