Zombie-Brained Cultists Are Annoying...

A Ron Paul fan just helpfully informed me that I work for:

• the federal government; and/or

• Big Pharma; and/or

• Monsanto...

because I'm not a Ron Paul fan.

Geez. And you Paul-Bots wonder why we find you so damn annoying?

Get a grip. Not everybody has to agree with you; I promise the sky won't/…

Power To The People


I believe the rebirth of class consciousness in the United States -- and across the world -- is one of the most important political events of my life.

I believe that this new dawning of economic awareness will inevitably lead to empowerment of those who, heretofore, have been largely shut out of/…

Teabaggers Have A Short Memory

Here's What The Tea Party Is REALLY Saying


"Don't Tread On Me."

Instead, tread on: the poor, the unemployed, the uninsured, the gays, the Muslims, the Hispanics, the lower/working classes, the liberals and progressives, basically, everybody but us, because we're rich and white.

This Bong Hit's For You, China.

But then, man oh man, did they make up for lost time!

Y'all Gotta See My New Checks


I'm not a check-using person. Normally, I conduct all my banking online. But since the IRS isn't into that type of thing, I was forced to cough up 40 bucks or so to buy a batch of the old-fashioned, paper kind.
