Dear Readers: I have not been a big fan of Meg Whitman. However, she is beginning to grown on me after the grand diva of narcissism, Gloria Allred, decided to trot out an undocumented worker in an attempt to undermine Meg’s candidacy for Governor. As far as I am concerned, Whitman joins the ranks of [...]

TEA PARTY CIVIL WAR? I think not!
Posted in California, Current Events, Tea Party, tagged California, Current Events, Tea Party on September 29, 2010 | 12 Comments »
I normally don’t discuss the behind-the-scenes world of Tea Party organizing, but an email I received yesterday attacking an American I admire greatly compels me to respond. I don’t often write about organizations besides the Southern California Tax Revolt Coalition (SoCal-TRC) or Tea Party Patriots (TPP). Both of these organizations are NOT Political Action Committees [...]

Dear Friends: Proposition 23 is the measure that, when passed, will delay the implementation of California’s Global Warming Solution Act (AB32, or the state’s version of Cap&Trade) until reasonable employment levels are achieved. As I mentioned yesterday, a friend to this site notes that Governor Schwarzenegger and the elite legislature are threatening business-supporters of Prop. [...]

Dear Readers: Due to some work pressures, I may have to try a new style of opining. Short, sweet items that deserve more attention. According to Big Government, THOUSANDS OF UNION EMPLOYEES ARE TO BE GIVEN FREE BUS RIDES TO THE ONE NATION DC RALLY!!! I have a question: Who, exactly, is footing the bill [...]

Dear Readers: This weekend I read an inspirational piece about dealing with New York’s “Parasite Party” in HillBuzz; as a Californian, it really spoke to me. The money quote is here: The interests of NYC are not the interests of the rest of the state. Outside NYC, the chief business is agriculture. Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, [...]
Is it a RECESSION End? Or, a DEPRESSION following PANIC?
Posted in California, Flaming Capitalism, General History, tagged Economics, History on September 22, 2010 | 8 Comments »
Dear Readers: Like many of you, I read with complete skepticism that the Recession of 2007 is over. In my quest for more information, I went to Professor Athena for answers. I was jazzed to learn she had prepared an important essay on this very subject, which is below. I can stress how ESSENTIAL to [...]

…and it smells like the decaying carcass of irrelevant, corrupt elitism. Dear Readers: I have a compendium of interesting links and remarks, the theme being the tired tricks that are opponents are using (or are planning for) to stave-off total defeat in the November 2nd election. The first item is from WC Varones, who notes [...]

Dear Readers: The San-Diego Local Order of Bloggers (SLOBs) had the semi-quarterly gathering last night. Per a request from my compatriot Beers with Demo, I have developed the Mad Men Passion Index for our group to help us rate the November election. I also wanted to share other key points that our local “Mad Men” [...]
In DEFENSE of WITCHES!

Dear Readers: Many of you recall that Halloween is my favorite holiday. So, it is with some interest that I learned that Delaware Senate hopeful Christine O’Donnell, in 1999, mentioned she dabbled in witchcraft — like a lot of high school and college age kids. Even in these times, it seems a lot more chic [...]
