"Hell No (I'm Not Alright)"

Nanci Griffith-- "Hell No (I'm Not Alright)"



God how I do love Nanci! She's so on point.

Don't listen to the douchebags

Love it. Sometimes you need to haul out the big guns and no matter how nasty the word use it. There is no other word to describe this guy.

Teens React to Rick Perry's Strong

This is almost like beating a dead horse at this point given Rick Perry's irrelevance to the GOP race, but this video posted a few days ago is priceless:




But the traditional conservative base is dying off and it isn't coming back. These kids are all right.

OCCUPY Your City

Brave New Films has produced a great video. Pass it on:



The growth of this movement is generating mounting concern within American ruling circles. This was expressed Tuesday in an article by New York Times financial columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin, who quoted a Wall Street CEO worried about his “personal safety” and warned that the protest constituted “a warning shot about the kind of civil unrest that may emerge—as we’ve seen in some European countries—if our economy continues to struggle.”

It is not the bankers who have to fear for their personal safety, but the demonstrators, who have been subjected repeatedly to police brutality and mass arrests for exercising their free speech rights.

Nonetheless, Sorkin’s warning about civil unrest is entirely justified. These are among the first prominent social protests in the United States in more than 30 years. Most of those involved in the occupations have never seen significant struggles for social change in their lifetimes. Coming on the heels of the mass demonstrations in Wisconsin last February, they signal the reemergence of open class struggle in the United States, the center of world capitalism.

Jimmy Kimmel unveils 'Michele Bachmann's story of America'

ABC's Jimmy Kimmel announced Tuesday a new educational film by Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann.

The Minnesota Republican has recently mistaken John Wayne for John Wayne Gacy and insisted John Quincy Adams was a Founding Father.

"I like when politicians who screw up go find like a single sentence in the back of a high school history book and then use that as their defense, as if that's what they meant the whole time," Kimmel said. "And that's what she's doing. And not only is Michele Bachmann sticking to this Founding Father thing, she's working on -- I don't know if it's a documentary or some sort of educational film, but it's something to teach kids about American history."

"In 1775, Thomas Jefferson and John Quincy Adams set sail across the Delaware River to tell the King of England they had enough of his liberal agenda," an actor posing as Bachmann explained in the film. "King James called Napoleon and together they decided to kill America."

"They sent the Nina, the Piñata and the Santa Maria to fight. But then, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln gathered an army to turn back the big government dictators. They told Paul Revere to ride his horse to Frodo. But then, John Wilkes Booth showed up and killed Lincoln. But there was still hope, because Jesus appeared on the face of the Liberty Bell and he froze John Wilkes Booth in carbonite. And the liberal homosexuals sailed back to their gay country, while Americans claimed their land and drank beer. And that's how freedom was born."

Undeclared GOP candidates debate

You can't tell the comedians from the real politicians anymore.

And that's NOT a joke!




"Michele Bachmann, when MSNBC wants to scare liberals . . .into caring about elections, they have you on as a guest."

The Word - Mutally Assured Coercion

Can we put out a 'cease and desist' order on calling the site of the WTC 'sacred ground'? We don't have sacred ground in this country. That's one of the founding principles of the nation. Separation of chuch and state, and all that.

The World Trade Center was mostly a building dedicated to commerce, filled with a lot of Wall St. firms, among others. There was an Islamic prayer center there, and probably similar things for other faiths, but it's still not sacred ground. It's the site of a terrible tragedy, and not to diminish the lives that were lost, that makes it historic, not sacred.
