Smacking those with their head in the clouds back down to reality with my right hand and flippin 'em the bird with my left. Thursday, May 25, 2006. Have I Told You How Much I Hate These Guys. Title of this post respectfully plagiarized from Mike Malloy). Bush orders documents seized in Capitol Hill search sealed. So all of a sudden Bush is concerned about the separation of powers and wants to make sure all relevant materials are made available? Pardon my French, but HOLY FUCK I hate this man. A student b...

Grounded In Reality: June 2006

Smacking those with their head in the clouds back down to reality with my right hand and flippin 'em the bird with my left. Friday, February 24, 2006. What I Would Have Done If I Had Won the Lottery. Of course I would quit my job and blow some of it on myself, my friends and family. But being the generous person that I am, I would also want to use my good fortune to help those less fortunate. And there are plenty of well established charities and organizations out there to donate to. I would of course ha...

Smacking those with their head in the clouds back down to reality with my right hand and flippin 'em the bird with my left. Sunday, December 17, 2006. The Wizard Has Been Exposed. Qualifications be damned, as long as you voted for Bush in 2000 and watched Fox News, you too could get a well-paying job in Iraq. Pretty impressive resume, huh? OK, so Bush wants someone who sees eye-to-eye with him on Iraq. I'm sure the replacement is a well-qualified individual. 1 Lowering of Iraq's tax rate. I'm sure we've ...

Smacking those with their head in the clouds back down to reality with my right hand and flippin 'em the bird with my left. Sunday, August 27, 2006. I recently stumbled across a post at needlenose.com entitled "The True Face of Abortion Opponents". No released eggs means no fertilization, no fetus, nothing. So this leaves these groups with three options: 1. Concede that science may have finally found a way to eliminate abortions, pack up their bags and go home. Go ahead and outlaw abortion. Nobody wi...

Smacking those with their head in the clouds back down to reality with my right hand and flippin 'em the bird with my left. Tuesday, January 02, 2007. Money Can't Buy Me. People who are willing to pay for health care can't get it at any price. As it turned out, Svonkin was rejected by not just one but three of California's biggest health insurers, which cited his history of asthma, among other things. Now apply the health insurance logic above: "Sorry, we are no longer going to cover your house for theft...
