Untitled Post
This photo appeared at Balloon Juice earlier today. How true…and the most staggering thing is the way the Top 1% has funded a bunch of know-nothing Tea Partiers whose only function is to make sure that the everything that the … Continue reading
Union
Kevin Drum, in a post from last week that I’ve been meaning to link: Every single human institution or organization of any size has its bad points. Corporations certainly do. The military does. Organized religion does. Academia does. The media … Continue reading
Galtification
Tales of right-wing political figures who rail against the evils of government on the one hand while happily accepting its benefits on the other are a dime a dozen — I especially liked the Teabagger recently elected to Congress who … Continue reading
Tippecanoe and….
