More News and Notes on the Newtown Massacre
We’re a couple of days removed from the Newtown Massacre, and it is no less horrifying today than it was Friday. As a follow-up, I have posted on my Scribd site a PDF file of the NRA brochure that I… Read More ›
Same Shit. Different Day.
Yeah, I know. That’s an overused phrase. I was thinking of using The More Things Change, The More They Stay the Same, but that’s overused too. And, frankly, I feel as though I sound like a broken record. However, there’s… Read More ›
It’s Officially “A Sigh of Relief”
It’s Wednesday, November 7, and I’m officially breathing a sigh of relief. I went to bed last night knowing gleefully that the only thing Mitt Romney is president of is the Wicked Losers Club. Yep. If you’re from Massachusetts, things… Read More ›
Will We Breathe a Sigh of Relief Tomorrow, or Will We Be Scared Shitless?

The 2012 Election Goal: Keep Romney-Ryan Out of the White House. Period.

Why You Should Wear a Bag On Your Head If You Plan to Vote GOP
I’m on a roll. I keep saying this and I will keep saying this: I am not an Obamabot. Nope. However, there is no way — and I mean NO WAY — I would ever, ever check a box next… Read More ›
Twenty-Three Days and Counting

Barack Obama: Missing in Action
I’ve had a full week of debates. I attended the Elizabeth Warren-Scott Brown debate on Monday at the University of Lowell. I watched the debacle last night between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. In this article, I want to talk… Read More ›
Toot! Toot! All Aboard the GOP Train Wreck!
I’m definitely not gloating here. It’s waaaaay too soon to gloat. There’s plenty of time left before election day, and the times are decidedly weird. How anybody in this country (who isn’t millionaire status) could even be considering voting for… Read More ›
Asshats and Weasels and Liars! Oh My! (Or, Dispatches From CrazyTown)
So, yesterday was a banner day in CrazyTown, USA (formerly known as Tampa, Florida). Hurricane Isaac saw the GOP coming and got the hell out of town. He got out just in the nick of time, it turns out, because… Read More ›
CrazyTown (formerly known as Tampa, Florida) is Now Officially Open for Business

Romney-Ryan 2012: The One Percent Ticket is Now Complete
Nobody should be surprised that Mitt Romney has chosen Paul Ryan as his running mate. The consummate candidate of the one percent had to fill out his ticket with the appropriate sidekick. If elected, you can be sure of the… Read More ›
Pity the Misguided Voters of America
I was driving home from work the other day behind a car that had three bumper stickers on it. Here’s what they said: Nobama 2012 (The “No” and the “2012”) were in red. God Bless America. Mitt Romney: Believe in… Read More ›
A Little Trip to La La Land With Pat Buchanan
There are so many crazies in and around the GOP that it’s hard to pick the craziest, but Pat Buchanan is certainly up there with the craziest of them. In a piece published on Town Hall, Buchanan has declared that… Read More ›
Is Anybody REALLY Excited About This Election?
I’m not. I’ve been a political junkie ever since I can remember. I had an FBI file when I was very young. I used to go around to colleges in the Boston area and talk about the killings at Kent… Read More ›
Mitt-Witt: The Consummate Candidate of the One Percent

Mitt Romney’s Personal Billionaire Boys Club
Mitt Romney is a pathological liar. There’s no question about it. According to Mitt, he doesn’t care about the very poor because there are safety nets in place. If they’re broken, he’ll fix them. (Uh huh.) What Mitt cares about,… Read More ›
Hey, Mitt! Size DOES Matter.
There’s no question that the American public school system is operating in the danger zone. While we fight trillion dollar seemingly endless wars, bail out banks that continually play fast and loose with other people’s money, and maintain a bloated… Read More ›
Third Party? We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Third Party!
The whole idea of a third party is something I’ve been trying to wrap my head around for a long time. I don’t think I’m sure how I even stand on the issue. What I have discovered in my travels… Read More ›
The Conservative Love of War
Why do conservatives love war? This is one of those questions that can’t be answered in simple terms. I’ve spent a bit of time researching the plausible answers to this one. I also know people on both sides of the… Read More ›
Mitt Romney Forsakes His Past and Plays Footsie With the NRA
Okay, let’s talk about Mitt Romney. I mean, I’d rather not but it looks like he’s the GOP nominee. Nobody really likes Mitt Romney. That’s why he hasn’t really been able to put the hammer down on the other GOP… Read More ›
A Look at the 2012 Elections: Fun Times With the GOP

The Weekly Ying and Yang: March 19, 2012
Well, it’s been another couple of weeks of interesting events. Just when I think I’ve seen it all, I see (and hear) crap that’s hard to believe. Sometimes I have to pinch myself to figure out if I’m really experiencing… Read More ›
Take a ride in the crazy Mormon clown car
You know, aside from being an asshat of major proportions, it’s no wonder Mitt Romney has had difficulty gaining traction in the 2012 presidential elections. Fact is, the Mormons are just plain loco with this whole ‘baptism by proxy’ thing…. Read More ›
The Weekly Ying and Yang
Oh, it’s been a banner week for sure, and I’ve got plenty to say. There’s (mostly) good news on marriage equality. We had CPAC. And she’s baaaaack (yes, Ann Coulter). So, without further bullshit, let’s begin. The Spin Doctor is… Read More ›
Rick, Mitt and Newt. Nyuk, Nyuk, Nyuk.
I don’t know about you, but at least when Michele Bachmann was still in the hunt I found some comic relief in the GOP clusterfuck of presidential politics. Not anymore. Now we’re left to endure three of the biggest asshats… Read More ›
The Weekly Ying and Yang
Welcome to the weekly Ying and Yang, a weekly roundup of events that may not require a full post but are certainly noteworthy in their own right. Some of the news is good. Some of it’s bad. But I try… Read More ›
Mitt Romney a progressive? You must be joking.
In case you hadn’t heard, Mitt Romney is a moderate with progressive views. He’s also not partisan. At least that’s what he told us in 2002. I don’t know about you, but I completely missed that about him even then…. Read More ›
