The Latest Reality Show

This is the webcam at the Government Accountability Board Office where they are reviewing recall petitions.  So far nobody has jumped up and down to show a signature of Mickey Mouse to a friend, though the woman with the dyed black hair was making eyes at Kevin Kennedy about 9:00 pm on Thursday night.  The [...]

Life’s short….tell someone you love them

Earlier today a friend and co-worker lost her fight with cancer. She was a hell of a fighter and a hell of a person, and she’ll be missed. My friend was only a few years older than I am, reminding me just how short life can be and how suddenly it can come to an [...]

Common – part 2

We touched on the \"Common Controversy\" yesterday, and called it silly. After re-thinking it a little bit, I think the White House sends a message as to who they invite to visit them and who they associate themselves with. The Bush administration would NEVER do something like that: O wait!

In case you [...]

Show me what democracy looks like

I would think since they are paying the speakers so well, that the Koch brothers could afford better ones.

Who needs a Dr. when there is a Walgreen’s nearby

Taking a page from Ron Johnson, Fox and Friends recently were touting the wonders of Walgreen’s healthcare. Of course it is so ridiculous that Colbert could not even make fun of their stupidity with a straight face. (It is nice we elected a senator who is the intellectual peer of Brian Kilmeade).

Ms. Kitzinger is telling the truth.

Ramona Kitzinger, 80 year old Democratic canvasser and hero to the right(here, here and here). NOT SO FAST though. The lady who the right wing cheddarsphere held up as a true hero and truth teller, now has been given the chance to clarify her story:
