Marching though Georgia

“The problem of this war consists in the awful fact that the present class of men who rule the South must be killed outright rather than in the conquest of territory.” You people of the South don’t know what you are doing. This country will be drenched in blood, and God only knows how it …

$6 Trillion Scam

Everything so far has been a bad deal. Put restrictions on the types and size of the Businesses being bailed out? They will ignore them. Get money for the Post Office? They’ll seize it and jack up the Rates 400%. Put in specific provisions against Graft and Self Dealing? Well, what are you going to …

Route 66

This is kind of a House/Cartnoon mashup. I know I’ve done the Depeche Mode Behind the Wheel/Route 66 Mix before as it was one of my DJ partner’s favorites though I can’t recall a single time anyone danced. It’s really quite good. See? What put me in mind of it is this new piece by …

The Need For Speed

Oh, I totally hate them. Right there next to Jug Handles. They’re confusing and you end up going around in circles. What’s wrong with a nice Left Hand Turn? I’d much rather take a Train and the Subway anyway. We are exceptional.

The Flavor Aid Moment

Readers, I invite you consider the Power of Flesh. Shall I tell you? It’s the least I can do. Steel isn’t strong, boy, flesh is stronger! Look around you. There, on the rocks, a beautiful girl. Come to me, my child… As my Doctor friend tells me you can easily survive a fall of almost …

The OpEd the Washington Post Wouldn’t Publish

Gotta love Fred Hiat, Jeff Bezos, and the WaPo (or as I prefer to call it, Pravda). Michelle Wolf was asked to do a piece and they decided that it was ‘surplus to their needs’ which is the polite way Book Publishers tell you to get lost. Gee, I wonder why? Do you think it …

Too Close To The Bone

Priorities USA (the Joe Biden Super PAC) is not the only organization that’s been the target of an attempt at Prior Restraint. American Bridge has an Ad up in Michigan that Republicans are attempting to quash with a cease and desist order delivered to WOOD, an NBC affiliate in Grand Rapids Michigan (actually pretty reliable …
