You can call me crazy – call me irresponsible – even call me late for dinner – but I don’t think I’m wrong about this ~   Lately, the Republicans have been nearly losing what’s left of their collective pod-like minds over the supposed cover-up of the attack on

The good and noble General David Petraeus has apparently gone all in with a woman or two (or maybe more) who isn’t his wife.  I wonder if this might not turn into a Tiger Woods moment with women eventually crawling out of the woodwork like termites eating their way through

Post election I’ve heard a lot of talk from political pundits and writers.  But two refrains seem to be repeated endlessly and by an assortment of people – from the Right to the Left.  This isn’t the first time these topics have been analyzed and grumbled over – I remember

Recently a bunch of celebrities have taken to the airwaves to encourage or bully us into voting.  Well…not just vote in general, but vote specifically for Obama.  This is despite the fact that there are several interesting third party nominees to vote for – Rocky Anderson, Jill Stein, and my

It’s somewhat disturbing to me that so many liberals and progressives that I normally see eye-to-eye with, today I am at cross-thoughts with.  Instead of a sober and multi-faceted reaction to the recent killing of bin Laden, people are whoopin’ it up in jubilation.   “We won!” and “Obama rocks!” –
