The food police are at it again, this time in California where they’re eyeing your ribeye. This from the L.A. Times: For one day each week, the Los Angeles City Council wants residents to go vegetarian. In a unanimous 12-0 vote, the council approved a resolution Friday endorsing the “meatless Monday” campaign and asking residents […]

So, about that big sell off on Wall Street after the election… It turns out there were a lot of selfish, rich capitalist pigs who decided to take their chips off the table rather than gamble on dodging the proverbial soaking that the American electorate voted to commence. President Obama ran on a promise to […]

A newly released outside audit of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools’ communications department revealed comprehensive flaws in the division’s performance and effectiveness, tied largely to “inadequate strategic communications leadership.” So naturally, Superintendent Heath Morrison reacted to the $20,000 audit by firing the executive director in charge of the department shifting the chairs on the deck of a sinking […]

Wars are constant and pursued without Congressional declaration; deficits rise to the sky; poverty is […]

The idea behind keeping your moral integrity intact if you are in the military is that, if you don’t, you could be blackmailed into endangering the security of the United States. Right? So the FBI steps in on getting a sniff of General Petraeus’ extramarital affair some months ago and starts investigating him and his […]

All across the ‘net and on the news-fight channels you can see the typical “the GOP is outmoded/must change/reach out to this group/that group/make a new group” arguments.

Well, here we are, one week after the re-election of President Barack Obama. From almost the beginning of the 2012 Presidential race, Republicans, Tea Partiers, and conservatives of all stripes were confidently told by the likes of Karl Rove and Dick Morris that we had the weakest President since Jimmy Carter, and almost any Republican […]
