Good Reading

Wed, 12 Jan 2011 11:41:17 -0500

Besides the occasional posting at Backstage w/ Supak, you can see all the best of what I’m reading at my shared items feed. Example? How about this from Thers of Whisky Fire:

…wingnut rhetoric has directly led to mind-boggling numbers of deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan; it’s ruined the American economy; it’s made torture routine; it has succeeded in preventing the nation from taking effective action to prevent environmental catastrophe.

Busting wingnut rhetoric for these latest shootings wouldn’t be like busting Al Capone for tax evasion. It would be like busting Al Capone for fucking jaywalking.

I try to share at least a few items a day, often more. Here’s the feed.

Blaming Bush's Budget Busters on Obama:

Not only did we make money on the bail outs, but Obama’s spending is dwarfed by Bush’s. Stopping runaway spending by electing more Republicans is like stopping a runaway train by putting grease on…
