Unconscionable Greed FTL

April 6th, 2009

Check out this really well-written Rolling Stone article on the unchecked greed which led to the current economic catastrophe in this country.

Food Democracy Now

January 6th, 2009

Poor management of our food industry has contributed to the growth of food-related illness in the United States and the deterioration of our soil and environment.

Food Democracy Now supports a rational, sustainable food policy at the Federal level by encouraging the selection of forward-thinking appointees to government positions.

Two things

December 20th, 2008

One:

I went to a Rush concert a while ago. (This is part of some sort of karmic penance I have to do. Look, I don’t want to go into it. Just bite me. I went. Let’s leave it at that, right?) The way these things go is they play a bunch of new crap no one has heard of before while we, the ticket buyers who paid a metric ass-load of money for the privilege, stand around getting drunk waiting to hear Red Barchetta or Spirit of Radio. That’s how these things work.

This is what people at Cure concerts are waiting for:

UPDATE: Had to replace broken link with “Lullaby”, hope this is what Cannonballer intended–if not he can fucken fix it his own damn self when he logs in sometime on 2011 or so.
Nice guess, but it was “Primary.”

If you’re not doing that stupid goth dance by the end of that, congratulations, you are not old. Also, too bad for you.

Two:

I like this number by The Duke Spirit:

That is all.

TOP 5 REASONS OBAMA SUPPORTERS SHOULDN’T REST EASY

October 21st, 2008

MoveOn.org wants me to post this, and I needed something to push that other Libertarian post off the front page, so here you go:

1. The polls may be wrong. This is an unprecedented election. No one knows
how racism may affect what voters tell pollsters–or what they do in the
voting booth. And the polls are narrowing anyway. In the last few days,
John McCain has gained ground in most national polls, as his campaign has
gone even more negative.

2. Dirty tricks. Republicans are already illegally purging voters from the
rolls in some states. They’re whipping up hysteria over ACORN to justify
more challenges to new voters. Misleading flyers about the voting process
have started appearing in black neighborhoods. And of course, many
counties still use unsecure voting machines.

3. October surprise. In politics, 15 days is a long time. The next McCain
smear could dominate the news for a week. There could be a crisis with
Iran, or Bin Laden could release another tape, or worse.

4. Those who forget history… In 2000, Al Gore won the popular vote after
trailing by seven points in the final days of the race. In 1980, Reagan
was eight points down in the polls in late October and came back to win.
Races can shift–fast!

5. Landslide. Even with Barack Obama in the White House, passing universal
health care and a new clean-energy policy is going to be hard. Insurance,
drug and oil companies will fight us every step of the way. We need the
kind of landslide that will give Barack a huge mandate.

This fails to mention the transfer of $trillions to the private company pumping oil out of Canada

Mission Accomplished Yet Again!*

May 17th, 2007

Looks like plucky online retailer amazon.com (anyone heard of these guys before?) will offer DRM-free downloads of music from 12,000 record labels. Did you even know there were 12,000 record labels left in the world? I thought the big three had bought everyone out.

At any rate, it looks like our boycott worked! Nice job, everyone!

*Previous Mission Accomplished


What wrong that needs righting will we unleash our terrible power onto next?

The Only Real Difference between Bush and Hitler

May 9th, 2007

The Onion has a list of the 15 Things Kurt Vonnegut Said Better Than Anyone Else Ever Has Or Will up at their avclub.com site.

The Only Real Difference between Bush and Hitler is not one of them, but it is mentioned parenthetically under item number 7:

Vonnegut (who often said “The only difference between Bush and Hitler is that Hitler was elected” [emphasis added]) was righteously skeptical about war, having famously survived the only one worth fighting in his lifetime. And it’s never been more true: Left or right, Christian or Muslim, those convinced they’re doing violence in service of a higher power and against an irretrievably inhuman enemy are the most dangerous creatures of all.

Go now and read the rest of the article!

And, like, hell-oooooo peeples, the Real Reason Littleton Sucks is because all suburbs suck. Like, holy hell, Batman, at what point does redundancy equal prison and/or death, when gas hits $4.00/gallon?!? Shaaaa - get a clue already!
