Missing The Point
You know, I sort of resent being lumped by Millennials into this category of “Boomers” because I’m way, way older than that. Held Orville’s coat at Kitty Hawk I did. I would sort this slight in the bucket of all Blacks and Asians and Lesbians (and especially Black Asian Lesbians) look alike and must therefore …

Why You Should Never, Ever Vote For Andrew Cuomo. Ever.
Did I mention ever? Look, I vote Working Family Party every time I can, strategically. Connecticut can’t hardly get more Blue (Statewide, there are local pockets and we are heavily gerrymandered and white, white, white) and while Greens are not particularly strong or organized WFP is and my consistent advice to Democratic candidates is to …

Ebola Again
It hasn’t really changed much. About 2 to 21 days after you’re exposed you basically decompose into a puddle of vomit, diarrhea, and goo from internal and external bleeding following fever, sore throat, muscular pain, rash, and headaches. It has a 50% fatality rate. So you would think people would be happy for whatever help …

Socialist Cat Fight!
Because that’s just what you want to hear about during CPac. First of all Socialism is not about Modern Monetary Theory and MMT is not about Socialism. Socialism is about how you spend State Resources and MMT is about what State Resources are. Unlimited except by your imagination incidentally, the same as any fiat money …
