Hey, remember when President Obama got Chief Justice Roberts all chuffed with this State of the Union rebuke? With all due deference to separation of powers, last week the Supreme Court reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests –- including foreign corporations –- to spend without limit … Read More “The Public Option Never Had a Chance” »
Click to view at full size. Anyone following me on Twitter or Facebook has probably gathered that I am mourning the loss of Alex Chilton, great American songwriter, guitar player and singer. For reasons why, click the image above and play the YouTube videos I embedded. I think they speak for themselves.
My slowly proceeding plan to take over the world has taken a significant step today: my first podcast interview was published at the Becky & Joe Show. Joe Wilson is a Molalla-based journalist who shares a weekly podcast at pdx.fm with Becky Bergman. They take on a lot of different topics. In my case, I … Read More “First the Interview, Next the Centerfold” »
Roger Ebert on Glenn Beck’s latest, um, crusade? What are the words “social justice” code for? Why, Nazism and Communism, says Beck: “Social justice was the rallying cry–economic justice and social justice–the rallying cry on both the communist front and the fascist front.” Beck even went so far as to cite Jesus Christ, saying, and … Read More “Glenn Beck versus Jesus Hitler” »
…but I know you didn’t.

The big news in bated breath anticipation of outcomes hopefully serving American geopolitical interests is the Iraqi election on May 7. The stakes are high, whoa-ho-ho!, so CNN sits down with its resident foreign expert guy, Fareed Zakaria. The main question on every Americans mind is, Will the trillions of dollars spent and thousands of … Read More “Weekend Round-Up of U.S. Global Power Games” »
Because Bart Stupak wants to screw over poor and middle class women and risk the fate of health care reform in Congress, I have decided to fight back the only way I know how — by drawing mean pictures of him.
Once again I go inside baseball with a political caricature. Today it’s Liz Cheney and Bill Kristol as dung beetles, which I fear unjustly insults dung beetles. After all, they roll balls of shit into perfect spheres, a truly impressive accomplishment for creatures with no geometric sciences to speak of. I was going to say … Read More “Caricature Friday: Liz Cheney & Bill Kristol” »
Karl Rove has learned his lesson: Mr. Rove adamantly rejects allegations that the administration deliberately lied about the presence of weapons in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq.
