Random RecitalsFor centuries we have been spoon-fed by our teachers, by our authorities, by our books, our saints. We say, 'Tell me all about it, what lies beyond the hills and the mountains and the earth?' and we are satisfied with their descriptions, which means that we live on words and our life is shallow and empty. We are secondhand people. We have lived on what we have been told, either guided by our inclinations, our tendencies, or compelled to accept by circumstances and environment. We are the result of all kinds of influences and there is nothing new in us, nothing that we have discovered for ourselves; nothing original, pristine, clear.

Article by missy on September 4th, 2008 at 9:37 am The fevered dream of the GOP continues. I was going to quote some of Sarah Palin’s odious speech, but its Dr. Laura sarcasm and patina of lies made it impossible to stomach. The GOP has nothing but god, guns, abortion and war. There was nothing in last night’s speech – or in this entire convention – about how a McCain/Palin administration would solve the credit crisis, [...]
Article by John on August 30th, 2008 at 1:00 pm Watch the last part of this video where Rove talks about how Obama is likely to pick an “unqualified” candidate such as Tim Kaine and you will understand the title to this post. Is this reverse psychology on Rove’s part? Did he already know the McCain VP pick and was therefore taunting Obama to also pick an unqualified VP? Or is it [...]
Article by John on August 1st, 2008 at 10:56 am Dear xxxx, I need your help: My strong and vocal stands in favor of impeaching President Bush and Vice President Cheney have made me a target. I am now under siege by the right wing, who are working hard to defeat me and silence the causes that we believe in. In the eyes of the right wing, I am seen, along with Rep. Kucinich, as one of [...]
Article by John on July 23rd, 2008 at 8:49 am (ItS aLL AbOuT LoVe) — JoVi RoCkWeLL Rove McCain does good work here. He even gets Couric to edit his interview so that we do not find out once again about McCain’s faulty memory with regard to our illegal, immoral occupation of Iraq. But the media is biased towards Obama, right? Always accuse others of what is actually true with regard to yourself and you [...]
Article by missy on June 24th, 2008 at 9:06 am “Even if you never met [Obama], you know this guy,” Rove said, per Christianne Klein. “He’s the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by.” It’s classic Rove: Plaster over the racist truth (that many country clubs in the U.S. still won’t admit blacks) by [...]
Article by missy on November 28th, 2007 at 12:42 pm Rich says he’s found the shittiest person on the face of the earth. While I admit his candidate does rise to a level of cruel douchebaggery rarely seen outside the Oval Office these days, I have to differ. Karl Rove last week on Charlie Rose: [O]ne of the untold stories about the war is why did the United States Congress, the United States Senate, vote on [...] | |
