No Diversity
Forget that you see an all-white crowd. Although that presents a problem for the GOP as minority populations continue to grow, the big problem is that it's an all-old crowd. Where are all the young people? Where are all the angry college students?
Read. The. Damn. Bill.
I just finished reading the transcript of Ezra’s interview with Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.). I thought Senator Alexander’s responses were thoughtful and intelligent … until this: Ezra: But you liked at least part of it. The Senate health-care bill seems like Wyden-Bennett on the margins. If you were willing to build on Wyden-Bennett, which is [...]

Listen, Assholes. Quick Reactions To The SOTU.
This is going to be about style more than substance, because, unfortunately, I think it was more important for the SOTU to motivate people than it was to outline policy. So a few points.

What Needs To Happen In The SOTU
So, tonight, Obama doesn't need to hit a homerun. Well, he can, but he doesn't have to, at least not a walk-off homerun.

Communist, Liberal, Muslim, Nazi Astronauts
Man. Looks like NASA’s in on that communist, liberal, Hollywood conspiracy known as “global warming”. Well, now that I think about, NASA also staged that fake moon landing back in the 60′s. So maybe they’ve been a part of communist conspiracies this whole time. But then again, the moon landing was part of the Space [...]
HOUSE – Pass The Senate Bill
Alright, so the title is actually a play on an inside joke I have about a former employer (quite a quirky guy) showing off his home in a local news segment. Particularly when he says “HOUSE – lower the attic stairs” at around the 1:45 mark: Guess you had to be there. But seriously. It’ll [...]
Plouffe To Return To White House
Awesome. I wish he had never left. This shouldn’t just be about campaigning for 2010 midterms. It should be an ongoing campaign of policies so we can drown out the noise coming from the teabaggers.
