Fun with Politics (112)

The media seems to think we’ve missed something, as they keep yapping about how expensive the gas is. Do they think we haven’t noticed? Talking about it doesn’t make it any cheaper anyway. Just remember that it can always be worse. My father, who lives in the Netherlands, pays (we did the math) $8.79 per gallon. I don’t know about you, but all I have to do is think of that number, and I’ll whistle while I pump. 156,463 homes have so far been foreclosed in 2008, so I’d say that the price of...Read Full Story

If you’re wondering what to throw on your BBQ tonight, I would suggest leaving the shrimp at the supermarket. I know, beef has gotten a lot of bad press, but it’s peanuts compared with the report that was recently made public. The Solidarity Center, an organization that investigates human rights of workers, found some less savory practices in several South Asian Shrimp processing plants:   “Sexual and physical abuse, debt bondage, child labor and unsafe working conditions are common in...Read Full Story

Many people are wondering why Rev. Wright doesn’t keep his mouth shut. He has decided to finally speak out, and he doesn’t know when to stop. Why is that? Oh, that’s right; Free Speech. Of course, Reverend W. has forgotten the cardinal rule today: we only like Free Speech in theory. Whoever has the audacity to actually make use of that right, will be punished faster than you can say sorry Massa, did I forget my place? Reverend W. makes people uncomfortable; the truth tends to do that...Read Full Story

While speaking out about Reverend Wright today, Obama looked beaten down. I feel a little beaten down myself, just watching this unfold. Obama is finding out first hand that running for office is no picnic, and that he’s hit quicksand. Once you are in quicksand, you rarely get out; the harder you try to escape, the deeper you sink. The reason he is where he is: he tried to solve this with a soft approach. He tried to be nice, and in the electoral process, there is no room for nice. There is...Read Full Story

Every once in a while, I read a news story that tastes about as good as a dish of Gumbo that’s been sitting out in the sun for five hours. While visiting New Orleans and making a ton of empty promises, McCain was asked about the comments of Texas televangelist John Hagee. Hagee has said, “Hurricane Katrina was God’s retribution for homosexual sin”. Because, you know, everyone in New Orleans is gay. When my husband and I lived there, we magically turned gay too. It’s the real reason Bush...Read Full Story
America’s fiscal situation appears grim. The “supercommittee” was unwilling to make tough decisions, mostly because voters won’t support the necessary mix of tax increases and spending cuts. Few politicians want to acknowledge that somebody’s standard of living will have to fall. It’s hard not to look at the current crisis in Europe and wonder if the United States might someday find itself in ...
