Are we bored yet, Egypt? Hell, no!

Gallup says 82% of Americans are sympathetic to demonstrators in Egypt.  66% believe change in Egypt will be good. (Source) Ha, ha.  The people are smarter than the politicans. Egypt’s push toward democracy continues.  Yes, I said “Democracy” without a caveat for religious nutjobs seizing power.  After reading a metric shit ton about Egypt this [...]

Huntsville Hero Update

I have routinely checked for updates on the “idiot in the projects” who is wanted for attempted rape and hopefully a slew of other charges in Huntsville, Alabama.  The suspect remains at-large.  But things are looking up for Antoine Dodson and his family since the attack. The Gregory Brothers saw music in Antoine’s outrage and [...]

This Week in M-Effers

Apologies to the purists for “M-Effers.” I’m giving up the F-word and all its variety for Lent to see if I even have the ability to exercise brain-to-mouth/brain-to-fingers discipline. Slipped once yesterday. Slipped today….two five six nine ten times. (And really there were no other suitable nouns or adjectives!) Maybe I won’t slip tomorrow.  The [...]

Praxidice Visits with a Vengence

Just in case you’re not convinced I’m completely off my rocker, I’m offering you hard core evidence. Behold I had dreamed a dream around Thanksgiving time, and I couldn’t shake it. In the dream, I guess I was wandering around in a Van Gogh painting as dreamers are wont to do.  When lo, and holy [...]

Obama Like Nixon According to Rove

Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!  Projecting much???? After an eight year love affair with the Bush White House, the Fox News bed is now cold.  Chris Wallace of Fox News Sunday cried a good ten minutes over being a wallflower with analysts, former Bush senior advisor Karl Rove and former Clinton campaign advisor Terry McAuliffe.  The Obama administration won’t [...]

Dick.

Remember back in December of 2008 when Cheney Confessed to War Crimes? That was cool. Putting the Vice in Former Vice President, Dick Cheney took a break from sucking cheer and good will from the world to defend CIA interrogators who threatened to murder a suspect’s children and rape another suspect’s mother. Nice. Dick actually [...]

John Yoo Punked in the Classroom

I read that the legal archetect of torture John Yoo was met with protests as he returned to classes at Berkeley Monday.  I started searching the San Francisco TV stations for video since nothing was posted on youtube.  Apparently, the footage had the priority of a car wreck with injuries, but no deaths.  Might have [...]

Karl Rove All Up DoJ’s Butt

Documents released by the House Judiciary show Karl Rove told big, fat lies when he said to Congressional investigators, “Iglesias who?” That’s not an exact quote. Rove actually characterized himself as just the messenger in the political firings of several U.S. Attorneys in 2006. But Bush’s super awesome failed pick for the Supreme Court, Harriet [...]

DOJ: Hall of Dumbasses???

h/t firedoglake Attorney General Eric Holder is ready to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate CIA interrogation abuses. Yay!!! Except what’s that Keith? The inquiry will be narrow, focusing only on those who went beyond authorized techniques.  Only excessive waterboarding will be investigated.” Do these people even speak the same English? The abuse of informal [...]

So. What Up, DoJ?

Double click to hear the song.  It’s awesome! “Dem” Bones took on an epiphanic quality for me this morning as I began news gathering.  I saw White House Counsel Greg Craig may have the door knob hit him where the good Lord split him. Can we really trust a man whose name rhymes?  I don’t [...]
