This blog is now read by more machines than humans: RSS robots, spam-laying insectopoids, echoes of blog-gathering .edu projects. This essentially is the state of affairs that all human activities w

If Air America were a conservative radio network its corrupt funding trail and cynical abuse of a poverty program would be front page news at the NY Times and full-time mega-scandal at

Fallujah Fonda

Jane Fonda is returning to anti-war activism and embarking on a cross-country tour to call for an end to US military operations in Iraq.

John Pilger: Partner in Terrorism

Meet the New Year
So it's a new year. It's one of those years divisible by four, giving us the bounty of an additional day, the Summer Olympics, and a US Presidential election. The extra day is ok (but why couldn't it have been in the summer- who needs an extra day in winter?) The Olympics are boring- and I know- I was in Atlanta in '96. But it looks like it'll be a take-no-prisoners election. That means fun! Start practicing your chad-punching now! Don't wait 'til election day. Foreign readers of this blog who are otherwise left out are invited to illegally contribute to the Democrats and then publicize the fact. (Although Aliens for Kucinich is probably redundant.)
Will this be the year we finally take on the Saudi entity? My worthless prediction is yes! Will reality TV start its inevitable wane? My worthless prediction is yes! Will the Gallic entity collapse into a soupy miasma of alternative polism, fascism, and brie? Answer cloudy- ask again later.
Happy New Year!

Fraudulent Diplomacy
So let me get this straight. Kerry is claiming that he'll be better at diplomacy than President Bush has been. In fact, as regards the Iraq war, that's the only factor where he differs from Bush in a

Steven Den Beste has been doing some cold, Jacksonian calculating about what it would take for the US to go nuclear in this war, and what the consequences may be. A guy (?) from Tehran later wrote Den
