If this doesn’t move progressives to vote, I don’t know what will

When I was in college, my first year at University of New Orleans, I was a soda pop junkie. I always had a Coke waiting for me in the morning. My dorm roommate was an Appleton, Wisc. native who, of course, was also a dead head and Phish fan.  Needless to say, she was a [...]

CORRECTED: Wikileaks ‘spokesman’ confirms my suspicions

This is what I get for writing late at night, and this also corrects Spiegel to read Schmitt.  My apologies. I’m not going to work too hard on this one, I’m just going to cut and paste what Schmitt said with what I wrote. It’s just easier that way: This development is being blocked internally. [...]

More Tommy Christopher Heart Attack Oversharing

It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 days since I live-tweeted my heart attack, and I’ve been meaning to do a post updating folks on my condition. There are a few problems with that. Even at my best, this is an overwhelming subject, but in my current state, it’s that much harder to make any [...]

Kate’s Corner – A “Banana Split” for the Ambassador

Yes National Parks have rules, no you don’t have to be obvious about breaking them

Here we go again. Local Florida reporter Dan Thomas, as aired by CNN,  shows what may seem outrageous if you don’t really know the laws for national parks and preserves, and then goes on to ruin what could be a perfectly interesting story by making into, well, nothing. Now, while it’s tragic, horrible, deceptive, and [...]

Attention seeking Wikileaks

That is the fact. Wikileaks, as an organization are attention whores. There’s a certain amount of important information there, but with Julian Assange – an admitted liability – that’s about it. Wikileaks has proven itself useless for disseminating information. It has proven itself UNABLE to figure out heads or tails. It has proven itself nothing [...]

NYT you disappoint me

Well, I am emailing DIA (secretively of course), and I will call them on their oh so secret hotline tomorrow to ask them about this, but I think the New York Times just wrote about a book, written by a man who believes 9/11 was an inside job – who also is a frequent guest [...]
