The Debble Made Me Do It!

I saw this event on Facebook and it really pissed me off. You rightly assume that I will not be in attendance. Though  not really knowing (or caring) that much about what the event is actually going to be putting forth, I freely admit I could be in error about the event that I will... Read more »

The Tea Party is like crack for the Republican Party

It is the perfect metaphor. At first it was fun, watching the party get ‘energized’ on Sarah Palin and Joe the Plummer. The Repub party would get all high and start talking crazy, but they were still managing to function. Although the neighbors were pointing at them and looking at them funny. So then the...

Hilary would have done a better job? Not really!

There are many, many progressives, liberals and centrists who are now regretting having supported Obama’s presidential bid over Hilary Clintons.They think that her experience in dealing with the right winged conspiracy that antagonized Bill Clinton’s presidency would have been better prepared her to deal with the current right winged conspiracy to destroy all things American...

To our local main stream media, these stories are so far apart that sets of commercials come between them, lest the most foolish among us are able to connect the dot.

Anybody Got a Millstone?

And a sea to throw it in? Yes, this is one of those attacks on the church kinda’ things. Three words, Bishop Eddie Long. Three more words, not an anomaly. Okay, I need to frame this discussion. First off, I am not a Christian, I used to be, but changed my mind. That said, I... Read more »

What is Fatherhood?

I was reading this note posted on Facebook by Monroe Anderson’s page called Daddy Fearest. I totally understand why the brother went off on those kids. I can not say I would not have done something similar. Picking on my child would be bad enough, but picking on my child who has cerebral palsy really... Read more »
