I've been extra lazy lately. Too lazy in fact to turn on the computer and drop in here to find out whats REALLY going on in the world. Now I get why some seemingly otherwise inteligent people could vote for candidates who so clearly oppose the basic concepts of democracy and the ideals of our nation.

While surfing the trash heap of the msm I came across a sloppy talk show host. He was for some reason trying to make it sound like a put down that a senator was actively monitoring the interests of the people who elected her and then (oh the horror) representing those interests in the senate.

Then I happened upon a speech by Mr Lie himself. What did Iraq have to do with 9/11???? "nothing". OH! grab the fucking Tivo remote. Did he really say that out loud? Guess he forgot to stay on coarse with his trail of lies. Read More

Well, here we go with Mr. War Preznit's peace plan part two. Anyone really think he's trying to bring peace on earth? Here are some puzzle peices I've not noticed mentioned together.

Let's start with a link to this http://www.dailykos.com/... story about how Hezbollah had not killed any Isreali's for 5 years prior to Isreal declaring war and promptly bombing the shit out Lebanon. And oh yeah, you can flip over to BBC news and look at their maps and diagrams that show that the 2 captured Isaeli soldiers were actually picked up by Hezbollah in an Israeli occupied chunk of Syria.

So here I was about to write a dairy about the potetial of escalation to the nuclear level in the latest war in the middle east and I notice a tapping on my screen. I didn't open the page after the initial response to my who is it was blogshark. But he tricked me with the old "candygram" and I opened it up...

Now that I've wiped the snot filled iced tea from my monitor, showered, put on dry pants, and cleaned my desk chair with that urine removing spray intented to neutralize pet urine (and not my own), I am back to my original plan, but in rare form. Read More

The notice is on the front page today. We have lost 2500 Americans in the "war" in Iraq. These soldiers gave thier lives following orders in an undeclared? war. If it was declared I don't remember it. mabey I was asleep.

Now on page 89 thousand something (my uid) here the numbers from the GOP's war on women and their war on babies. The war on women thing is a bit meta for me to post, but since the beginning of the Iraq war, over 3700 women have been killed right here at home. Here's the REALLY bad one. The GOP war on babies has left 84,000 babies (children less 1 year old) dead. Read More

The new GOP sex ed class. The class is a new requirement for the "loyalty oath". It is divided into male and female classes so as not to be made into a mixer. The classes are led by prominent GOPers. one a recent author, the other a radio personality.

(Dubya) is FOR (the war against) Women

Not just dubya, but all of his twisted little minions are still engaged in supporting the war against women. The casualty rate is astonishing. Every "conservative" judge, newspaper, DA, police officer, state and federal legislator, court employee, social worker, lawyer, and supporter of the "conservative movement" plays a part in the death of an avergage of 1232 women a year. Compared to the 2400 plus US soldiers that have been killed in 3 years of fighting in Iraq, thats alot.

Each word here is a link to articals written in the last week about women who were killed by their husbands or boyfriend . Read More

I want to know what what concerns Democratic women. Not only what is your opinion on the hot topics of the day, although these are critical as well, but what pisses you off that no one is even bothering to address. What is marginalized as a side issue? How can a candidate get to those women you know who aren't interested in voting?

There are an estimated 40% of women who don't vote. We all know that just as there are male feminists, there are mysogonist women. I recently heard one particularly vicious one just put a book out. But these women are not the majority, and a surge in women excercising their rights to vote could marginalize them easily. Not to mention turn the tables on the GOP. Read More

The swirling cauldron of shit in my head has reached its capacity and is now spewing forth onto my keyboard. Guess it was just some 6-6-06 crappy timing or something, but I was raiding the rec list and watching TV while my ssssllloooooowwwww ISP switched pages. I just happened to click on bonddad's diary about why the market is tanking at the same time that TIME BOMB came on.

TIME BOMB is a documentary warning about how close the economy is to crashing like-russians-waiting-in-line-for-bread style. Some of the warnings in it were described today on the rec list as current events. FUCK.

That's just what's put me over the edge though. Here's what's been adding and adding and adding to my if I had health insurance I would know for sure if that was an anxiety attack. Read More

Women as Voters Part II

Yesterday I was wondering why the idea that women as voters are a minority is so prevalent in our society. This only seems to be true for Republicans (where women voters ARE a minority)who it seems have a dirty record when it comes to making, keeping, and releasing funds for laws that protect women in this country. According to Women's Voices, Women Vote, more than 40% of single women don't vote.

Comprising one of the electorate's largest and most reliable voting blocs, women are a natural target. They make up 54 percent of the population, 55 percent of registered voters and 60 percent of the electorate

I got to wondering why the msm and a big majority of people in general consider women (as voters especially) to be minorities.To add to the confusion you can throw in the 2 million plus prisoners held in American jails, around 90% of which are male. Then there are the close to 6 million probation/parolees who cannot or beleive they cannot vote who are also above 80% male. That should, in theory make the female vote the most sought after in any election.

This is sort of an update of events from previous postings about an ongoing case (or set of related cases). What pisses me off is the way WaPo spun the awwwww poor wittle judgy-wudgy had to put up with the negative press while being investigated for misconduct (in more than one area mind you.) To bring anyone who missed the beginnings of this mess up to date, here is a re-cap. This is the judge who lifted the protection order on a woman who was subsequently set on fire by her pig of a husband.
