Mañana.

Why There Is No Blog Today
Frankly, I have been scanning the various information streams, and the news is universally stupid.
Rome is burning and we seem to be in the middle of a fiddle festival, so it would be pointless — not to mention fundamentally rude and insensitive — to make sense during such an unadulterated soufflé of dumbassitude.
Therefore, in the name of civility, I leave the day’s field to the barbaric yawp.
Courage.

Walpurgisnacht: How Dumb Are The Democrats?
Walpurgisnacht, 2008.
You know, according to Pope Sextus the Fifth (or by his Borg name, Pope 6 the 5) or, Yogi Berra (I can’t remember which), the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
I have been watching seemingly every sane body in America throwing the Reverend Jeremiah Wright to the jackals, including — at April 29’s press conference — Senator Barack Obama.
And while I appreciate the inevitability of the press conference — a chess move he’s been trapped into by the “rules” of the game as played — I understand that unless and until we stop allowing this cycle of demonization, denunciation and distraction to continue in all its satanic, bullying glory, Keep reading →

NEWSWEEK’s Southern Accents, or, Told ‘Ja So!
And call me Cassandra ….
Long time readers are familiar with my concern over the whole Neoconfederate/Old South direction of national (and especially GOP) politics. Keep reading →

BLOG ENTRY: “GOP Smoking-Gun ‘Wright’-Wing Hypocrites” 25 April 2008

ABC = KKK?
You need to recall something important in the whole “Reverend Jeremiah Wright” “controversy”: ABC’s Brian Ross and his Burka Babes* launched this INTENTIONALLY. They purchased all available sermon tapes and found the sound bite heard ’round the world.
[* BRIAN ROSS, AVNI PATEL and REHAB EL-BURI, see "Barack Obama as Nat Turner" from March 19.]
And when has any preacher to any candidate been accorded this level of scrutiny?
Did Mitt Romney’s entire CHURCH receive this sort of attention? (The MSM and the blogosphere, you might recall, were still very ginger about attacking Mormonism, “magic underwear” notwithstanding).
No: This was an intentional attack on someone ASSOCIATED with a political candidate for reasons that, increasingly, appear to be purely motivated by racial antipathy. And what the HELL is this? If we’re supposed to pay attention to religious “weirdness” in all of this, what is Rehab El-Buri’s part in this, and WHY did Brian Ross draw a Muslim reporter in, specifically to dig dirt on a Christian minister?

GOP Smoking-Gun ‘Wright’-Wing Hypocrites
[Note: back from spring cleaning, sort of. Mostly done. More to do this weekend. But the blog is back from hiatus -- HW]
Why didn’t they walk out? On September 17, 2007, less than one week after the 9-11 anniversary, America was damned in front of the GOP candidates — and they sat there and never said word ONE.
Why Should God Bless America? (their title)
When the “Values Voters” coalition had a choir sing a song insulting America as a godless country, why did Keep reading →

Today’s the big day.
The world will look different tomorrow.
(Unless, sadly, it manages to look the same.)

Spring Cleaning!
OK. Major spring cleaning underway. This means maintenance of hard drives, defragging, archiving, etc. Installation of a new CD burner. Major renovation of office. Moving two computers. Restoring network. Major house issues. Etcetera. Most services off line: minimal email, etc.
So, there will be a hiatus of approximately a week. Sorry for the inconvenience, but nothing big is happening right now, anyway.
Thanks for your forebearance.
Courage.
