Manipulation of the Right: money and ratings

Many devout, sincere and decent people on the Right continue to be manipulated by a few cynical groups and individuals in search of money, with a touch of racism.
Over the last few years there have been many instances where spokesmen of the Rabid Right have created controversies out of whole cloth in order to energize the GOP base or to increase ratings and income for themselves.  A few examples (more. . .)

Living in Love

Soul Mates?

I don’t think I have the perfect husband, but he is perfect for me. I love to talk with him, look at him, and just spend time with him. It’s true that too much time is no good, but I never get sick of him. Unless he’s acting annoying, of course, which sometimes he does on purpose just to get me in a tizzy. But anyway, he is a gem.

Debtor’s Prison

One of my friends, Robert ~ who just happens to be a staunch Obama supporter, got a first hand lesson in the reality of the Obama driven economy yesterday.
This real person and friend is an industrious individual, and works for himself. His income is consistent with other start up businesses and to say it is spotty is kind, but the truth is, it’s more like a long drawn out (more. . .)

Why Alaskan Women Shop Alone

Last month, I was unceremoniously deposited into the ranks of the unemployed early retirees, my lovely wife insisted that I indulge her whims and accompany her shopping ~ even to them Lady Things stores.

Alaskan Women

When those sophisticates in California and parts back east look into the mirror to view their mental image of high chic, what is it that they are viewing besides a rail thin wraith in designer clothes, mustache, attitude and padded everything?  Many of those elitist fashionistas are highly educated, sexually frustrated, shells of womankind that seek to find a purposeful life via serial affairs, political alliances, mate choices, careers as (more. . .)

Bush (43) stopped Cheney — once

I, and many others, have written about the willingness of the Bush-Cheney administration to expand the authority of the president to beyond the imagination and fears ever before imagined.  We witnessed torture, extraordinary rendition whereunder a person would be secretly transported to foreign countries with even fewer scruples against brutality than Mr. Cheney possessed and warrantless wiretaps of conversations of United States citizens, warrantless because there was nothing to present (more. . .)

I was on my way home from work, and I passed a little shop called “Abundant Treasures.” I wondered what was in that shop. Some kind of gift shop filled with cards and trinkets and teddy bears? Or maybe a thrift store, smelling dank and dusty with lots of stuff on the cheap. Whatever it was, I didn’t stop to look. I wondered, but I didn’t pull the car over (more. . .)
