    Random Recitals

    We've arranged a civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for awhile, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.

    Go Sestak

    Actions have consequences…

    Wouldn’t it be great if Specter had his petuddy(sp) handed to him by a challenger that actually acts like a true Democrat in the primary?  We need a massive amount of new blood in Congress.  This will be a test if people in Pennsylvania value seniority over Democratic issues.  There is no way anyone can [...]



    this is a great time to block obama’s health & science nominees, dontcha think?

    At Sunday afternoon’s White House press briefing on the administration’s efforts to combat and control a potential swine flu outbreak, press secretary Robert Gibbs was joined by Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, deputy national security adviser John Brennan, and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention acting director Dr. Richard Besser.

    Noticeably absent on stage was a fully confirmed federal health care official: There was [...]



    Let’s Bailout Paris Hilton Too

    Given the state of the Federal budget deficit, this just makes me sick (from Think Progress):

    Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) and Sen. Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) have a $250 billion proposal to cut estate taxes for the children of multi-millionaires even more than George W. Bush already did, and it’s attracting a disturbing amount of support.

    Their $250 billion proposal would raise the [...]



    oh, fer crissakes

    Senate Democratic leaders conceded yesterday that they do not have the votes to pass the stimulus bill as currently written and said that to gain bipartisan support, they will seek to cut provisions that would not provide an immediate boost to the economy. … For weeks, the measure has grown to meet a worsening economic crisis with the largest possible infusion of government [...]



    Democrats Eat Their Own

    Harry Reid

    As expected, the US Senate stopped Roland Burris from lawfully taking his Senate seat this morning.  The Democrats cannot stand up to Bush or Cheney.  They cannot stand up to the Republican MINORITY. They cannot stand up to Joe “Kneepads” Lieberman. But they sure as heck can stand up to one of their own.  I would not even believe this was [...]



    in which the atheist quotes the bible

    to ask why it’s necessary for the Inauguration Committee to flash Obama’s & Biden’s participation in a prayer service the day after the inauguration:

    Matthew 6:5-6 says

    When thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men…

    But [...]



    Pelosi and Reid Must Go

    Just read this from Judith Shattuck, the Washington State Coordinator of the Progressive Democrats of America. Nice to be reminded there are many others that see what I see, think what I think and feel what I feel:

    My note to Pelosi ….

    Quoting: Pelosi: US must stand strongly with Israel Published: 12.28.08, 03:13 / Israel News …Speaker of the US House of [...]
