“Logic” in Campaign-speak


On yet another primary Tuesday, one without drama or intrigue though, I feel the need to point this out. Hillary Clinton has argued (amongst many other dubious things as she skillfully ignores the numbers working against her), that HER victories carry more impact that Barack Obama's because they are in historically critical General election swing...

This Week in Politics – quick book reviews


I'm stealing from my Goodreads reviews 🙂 Here is what I wrote in December after finishing Hillary Clinton's Living History: I am so glad I read this! For a non-fiction book, it almost reads like a fictional story. Hillary dose a great job describing the people and places in her life. Those eight years in... Continue Reading →

Sometimes the voters get it right


..and Tuesday night, voters in the Dem primaries AND American Idol got it right! It looks like both of these contests might end at the same time.  I missed this while watching possibly because I was typing away, but did Jason really mouth "don't vote!" when they were giving his numbers? Clearly he was relieved... Continue Reading →

American Idol Top 4


I hab a cod. (sniffle). Yes, I got through the entire flu season unscathed only to catch a cold this week. Blech. Good thing there was so much on tv to entertain me with the Padres tanking yet again, yet another primary and now this. Can you believe there are only two more weeks of... Continue Reading →

And more on Wright


** I have a really cool poem from Sportsboy that I will share hopefully tonight or tomorrow, but I forgot to bring it with me to work so today's lunch time post has to be more politics. Sorry 🙂 ** Bill Moyers commentary as highlighted by MOMocrats. He makes note of the same comparisons I... Continue Reading →

Follow up to yesterday


On presumpstions, associations and elitism. So nicely done and one of my favorite Dem sites. I decided to add a set of links for the political sites I visit every day now during this election year too.

This week in politics


My plan this week had been to do book reviews on the candidates' books. But I still have a little more to go to finish Obama's Dreams of My Father and besides, Robin asked for my impressions of this week's PA primary 🙂 As I sit here typing this though, I am feeling really dragged...

This week in politics part 2 – I love YouTube


This week in politics – the media descends further into the gutter


I was really bummed that I would not be home to watch the debate though of course I thoroughly enjoyed going to the Padres game. I did record it was planning to watch it this weekend, but apparently I need to be prepared to get even more disgusted with the media. Or perhaps just not... Continue Reading →

He said, she said, he said


I did an image search on 'he said, she said' looking for a cute cartoon and found this: It isn't cute, but it made me giggle! So topical for so many reasons! Just be careful out here in the land of 1s and 0 s my friends. You can *never* be too cynical on the... Continue Reading →
