KBR: unremitting never ending criminal murderous stupid Defense contractor KBR may have exposed as many as 100,000 people, including US troops, to cancer-causing toxins by burning waste in open-air pits in Iraq, says a series of class-action lawsuits filed against the company. Pretty bad, a Cheney crony/contractor showing standard level of contempt for humanity and everything else [...]

McCaskill – Stupak isn’t so bad !! Anyone remember how Claire McCaskill couldn’t get enough of the progressives and Liberals in the Democratic Party before she was elected to Congress? May have had something to do with the amount of contributions they made to her campaign and the legwork done on her behalf. She has since [...]

The American Catholic Church and Health Care Whether we like it or not we may have to take on the American Catholic Church to get good health care reform. They have stuck themselves into this debate with a a vengeance, spotting the likely fissure between the proper Democrats and the opportunistic Blue Dogs and Conservadems. These [...]

So, Today is the anniversary Of the day when St Ronald (Reagan not McDonald) woke up one morning, thought ummm – lets do something different, hopped on a plane to Berlin and with his bare hands and alone tore down the entire Berlin wall, only pausing to put the rubble in neat piles and deliver [...]

Leiberman Katrina and Fort Hood

Leiberman is doing his best to stir up anti Arab sentiment in the wake of the tragic Fort Hood Shooting. The incident where the shooter happened to be a Muslim and much to the deep joy of the Right Wing Nut Jobs and I suspect, Senator Leiberman, he had a really Arab sounding name. The Senate [...]

Health Care Reform House Debate In a few years historians will watch the tape of this and wonder jusy how the GOP lasted so long. Every argument they put forward would get laughed out of a debating forum for 8 year olds.

CIA agents guilty of Kidnapping

steve — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 14:48:11 +0000

This is a story that hasn’t received anywhere near as much attention as it should have: An Italian judge has convicted 23 Americans – all but one of them CIA agents – and two Italian secret agents for the 2003 kidnap of a Muslim cleric. BBC Article for a good medium length summary. The CIA personnel were involved [...]

Billionaires for Wealthcare Another video from the wonderful people who comprise Billionaires for Wealthcare. Satire is a vastly underused tool in the ongoing war on idiocy. This one is a compilation of different events. Unfortunately, unlike their last offering the song isn’t captioned. I’ll try to find a transcript. Billionaires for Wealthcare is a grassroots network of [...]

Tancredo throws his toys and Markos (Daily Kos owner) gives an object lesson as to how a Democrat should handle a cable news slot. The segment centered around the sick signs on display at yesterday’s idiots march on Washington but Markos implied, correctly, that right wing thug Tancredo was a chickenhawk.

Teabaggers,Washington DC, Fort Hood and Empathy

Yesterday the idiot Teabaggers marched on Washington or rather arrived by the paid busload. I know nothing about what the morons got up to and I really cannot be bothered to read up on it. Bachman and her ilk probably spewed hatred, bile and idiocy, Fox News probably bumped up the attendance by a few [...]

steve — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:54:03 +0000

If you think bipartisanship or finding some middle ground with the GOP is the way forward then you really need to read this. The author looks at the political dynamic in terms of a personal relationship. The analogy clarifies the whole issue beyond belief. A longish, very well written piece and highly recommended. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/w-hunter-roberts/obama-abuse_b_333041.html

Good to see certain pundits and bloviaters slowly beginning to realize that maybe yesterday wasn’t such a great day for the GOP. The punditocracy and SCLM just cannot understand stuff that doesn’t play out to their script despite the fact that said script is usually based on little more than water cooler chatter.

Bloomberg scrapes by in his vanity project $100m+ is obviously NY City’s price. Deeds was a truly awful candidate. Dems- hedging on the Public Option and change will get you kicked [...]
