You can blame the Greeks, but how does that play out with the French, Spanish, Irish and Portagese none of whom had any of the Greek problems.

Why would you have any respect for Graham? On the two major moral issues of his life he was wrong. He said essentially nothing about segregation and was in favor of the Vietnam War.

He is evil and corrupt and always has been.

What Savage said that there were parts of the Bible that are bullshit. He probably could have used a term that was more “politically correct,” but his point was that these christians ignore parts of the Bible that they want to, but believe the part about homosexuals for no good reason about being inconsistant.

How was that wrong? Further, why was it ok for people who claim to be journalists in trainig to walk out without hearing the entire thing and then resonding to it in one way or another.

Finally, where is the bullying from Savage? He said mean things about a book the kids who walked out believe in. How is that bullying?

Ok, I didn’t see any bullying there. What am I missing.

Hardening of the arteries. Hmm, back in the 50s when my parent’s elderly relatives would get weird as they got older it was explained to me that the reason they seemed so crazy was that they had hardening of the arteries.

Good career move.

Isn’t this more or less what you are saying about Breitbart

The Hangman at Home by Carl Sandburg

WHAT does the hangman think about
When he goes home at night from work?
When he sits down with his wife and
Children for a cup of coffee and a
Plate of ham and eggs, do they ask
Him if it was a good day’s work
And everything went well or do they
Stay off some topics and talk about
The weather, base ball, politics
And the comic strips in the papers
And the movies? Do they look at his
Hands when he reaches for the coffee
Or the ham and eggs? If the little
Ones say, Daddy, play horse, here’s
A rope—does he answer like a joke:
I seen enough rope for today?
Or does his face light up like a
Bonfire of joy and does he say:
It’s a good and dandy world we live
In. And if a white face moon looks
In through a window where a baby girl
Sleeps and the moon gleams mix with
Baby ears and baby hair—the hangman—
How does he act then? It must be easy
For him. Anything is easy for a hangman,
I guess.

For some time we’ve been told that these peaceful deminstrators were being attacked and murdered by the Syrian government forces. Has the government captured Homs yet? If not how are these unarmed demonistrators keeping them out and even if they have captured it why did it take so long?

I would think that at this point news from the middle east would be looked at with quite a bit of disbeleaf given what happened in Libya. But appearnetly not.

You are right, cops lie all the time and convictions are upheld. So what is Gleick appoligizing about. If it isthe only way to get that information out there, then do it.

I have believe for some time that the goal is to keep birth control safe and legal for wealthy women.

There is no change. Koman will simply not give PP as much money next year and less then next and then none. We have won nothing, if people continue to give their money to this organization, instead of elsewhere.

Come on can anyone really have believed that Obama was really going to do something to help the average person and hurt banks?

I am so tired of acronisms, or STOA.

That’s cute. Where do you get that idea?

I’d suggest that that is Obama and most of the democrats at this time: Killing progressive organizations just like republicans only slower.

Well the earlier post here about the attempt to force a completely inadequate settlement of the foreclosure crisis comes the same day as this. Obama is kind of willing when push comes to shove to allow movement on social issues. He is never willing to give when it comes to money for the big boys.

These social moves are all nice enough, but if the economy keeps diving you can be sure that the neanderthals will be back in power and most of what has been accomplished in the social area will go the way of the Dodo bird.

Take the crumbs from the table that our betters are offering us, cause if we don’t we might not get anything? Do I translate correctly? Also, of course make sure that those who knowingly stole the money from a generation are maintained in their positions of power.

Dang I read that piece on Karen’s liaison with the doctor. That is just icky as my wife said. No wonder she’s so messed up.
