The Conservative Case Against Mitt Romney

    The Conservative Case Against Mitt Romney should actually be called the Radical Rights Case Against Mitt Romney. Romney is a conservative, he just is not far enough to the right to please the radicals on the right who yell the loudest in the Republican Party. Just how conservative do you have to be to satisfy people when your current stances are to the right of Barry Goldwater and you are to liberal. What a party.

The Mark of Cain is a partisan hit piece of the worst kind.

Women's Lives at Risk

     Very partisan Women's Lives at Risk? is guaranteed to piss of any pro life person as she doesn't understand that pro choice and pro life are not actually opposite positions.

Ohio's War on the Middle Class

    Ohio's War on the Middle Class is in the Ugly column because it is just not happening in Ohio. In 48 of our 50 states cuts to government workers at the state, county, and local level have left people in the lurch. People with good educations who thought they were safe. People take government jobs for 2 main reasons: they want to give back to the community or they want a safe job that guarantees a paycheck and a secure retirement. They don't expect to get paid as much as the private sector but they want job security. They will take less as long as it is hard to lose their job. Someone along the way has forgotten this rule and politicians need to be reminded of it.

America's "Primal Scream"

      Kristoff often pisses me off, partly because I am jealous he gets to travel so many places. In America's " Primal Scream that traveling pays off as he has something more recent to compare the Occupy Wall Street movement to, and does a good job of elucidating his points.

Good News! No Really!

     Good News! No Really! is nice little look at some political bright spot in a world filled with fear and failure.

Ode to the Right

Saw this poem worth sharing:

Graphs and charts and meaningless words
Matter not to right-wing birds
They fly in circular patterns each day
To land at the same spot where they pray

"Oh lord, deliver U.S. from evil
From science, altruism and blue boll weevils
Holy father we pray in your name
Ask U.S. not to be progressive, humane

Allow to bask in mythological glory
The wine of superstition to sweeten your story
Forgive U.S. our trespasses, our prejudice then
We'll "bathe" on Sunday and start over...again
