From the Atlantic two weeks ago:
Three of the five Justices in the majority — John Paul Stevens (age 88), Ruth Bader Ginsburg (age 75) and David Souter (age 68) — are widely expected by court observers to retire or otherwise leave the Court in the first term of the next President. By contrast, the four [...]

I think I just posted on how the American people dislike politicing as a reason why they don’t get more involved… It doesn’t help when you have mass media fuck up the whole process and promote superficial gossip and pedestrian issues in their “debate” that have already been hashed out for months and of which [...]
Many of the reasons people dislike politics include: 1) the exorbitant amount of money paid on “campaigning” for the job including advertising both for your points and pointing out your opponents “flaws” when even a fraction of which could feed, cloth and educate not only Africa but much of our own country, 2) attempt to [...]
Larry David has a spot on Huffington Post to blog about his thoughts and whatever. In three years he’s written 4 posts, so most of the time, his wacky genius ends up on the most hilarious tv no longer on cable television (Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm : “Hear the birds? Sometimes I like [...]

One of the catchiest campaign commercials I’ve heard in some time:

I sing this corrido with all my soul
He was born humble without pretension
He began in the streets of Chicago
Working to achieve a vision
To protect the working people
And bring us all together in this great nation
Viva Obama! Viva Obama!
Families [...]

You would think for a person that spent 5 1/2 years as a POW (three of which he spent in solitary confinement), being tortured with nonstop brutal beatings, refusal of medial attention and other technique; he would come to the conclusion that torture is probably a bad thing. If McCain was as strong a [...]

What is experience? Much of the Hilll campaign against Obama is that he doesn’t have the experience and that her tenure in the big House is a big advantage to her credibility as the future president of the US (”I was in the White House for 8 years.” - HRC). Well yeah, and [...]
