Out of Town and Offline

Friday, September 28th, 2007

I’ll be in Los Angeles Monday through Wednesday of this coming week, so I won’t be posting for a while longer. Yes, this is a trip to UCLA, and hopefully it’ll result in my being put on the transplant waiting list. Wish me luck. Thanks to everyone for their comments on COUNTDOWN TO MYSTERY and […]

The Filibuster: now painless and more convenient than ever!

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

From Daily Kos: “So why aren’t the papers reporting on the Republican intransigence in the Senate?

Rudy Patootie

Monday, September 17th, 2007

As you may have heard, Rudy Giuliani got up a fine dudgeon over MoveOn.org’s “General Betray Us” ad and took out an ad of his own in the *New York Times* attacking both MoveOn and Hillary Clinton, who had nothing to do with the ad but, in Giuliani’s view, failed to condemn it enough. Okay, […]

I strongly suspect that in his final attempt to have all things his way until 1/20/09, George Bush grossly overplayed his hand Thursday night. I also have a horrible hunch that a lot of people whose names aren’t Bush may pay for his arrogance, cowardice, and messianic zeal with their lives. I hope to fucking […]
