The truth is I am afraid is that is no longer the case. It seems as if many of us not only tolerate those who now regularly lie to us ,but also have come to accept them in some measure as well… Religion,politics….the two biggies my friends….subjects that are said never to be discussed with […]

We’re about a week away from Election Day here in the USA, the first Tuesday following the first Monday of November. It’s an off year, with not as much at stake nationally. There’s an referendum to repeal Ohio’s anti-collective bargaining law, and an anti-choice measure in Mississippi that will define a fertilized egg as a […]

I may not have been down at the Occupy Seattle demonstration this week, but I did do something to improve my community today. I complained about a broken crosswalk button at an intersection I use almost everyday. I tried to refrain from writing an entire blog on the city of Lynnwood’s Public Works complaint page… […]

The Byrds Eight Miles High Corridor of Time The Five Obstacles by James Clair Lewis There are five obstacles that you will have to overcome on The Path. The first four are obvious, because they are physical conditions. However, any of them is completely capable of derailing your progress, and consuming all of your time. […]

Echoes of Distant Idealism You’re probably familiar with multi-axis interpretations of an individual’s take on reality. I think my very first exposure to this easily understood plotting of attitudes and impacts came from the old game Dungeons and Dragons. Who here remembers this graph? The idea is simple. You take two continuums, two spectrums […]

We elected him
in times that weren’t great.
Things are still tough now
but they’re better than they were in ’08
yes they’re better than they were in ’08
He promised hope and change
Things are still on track
We may still be in Afghanistan
but at least we’re out of Iraq.
Well, we’re mostly out of Iraq.
Is it because he’s black?
or because he’s a Democrat?
HE could be for rescuing kittens
and the Republicans would oppose that.
The Tea Partiers would oppose that.
2012 is coming.
Time for an election.
I’m gonna do what I can
because I’m voting for Obama again.
Yes I’m voting got Obama again
(guitar solo)
IN his second term
We’ll take away all your guns
We’ll get those death panels rolling
and set up those internment camps.
Yes, we’ll set up those internment camps….what?
I wasn’t suppose to talk about
that part of the plan? Oh. I can edit it out….
because I’m voting for Obama again.
Yes I’m voting got Obama again.
Why don’t you join us now
the future we will win
He’s leading our recovery
and you know he got bin Laden.
Yes you know he got bin Laden.
I am not one
to be scared and glum
I think our future’s bright
and our best is still to come
Yes America is number one!
So I call on you my friend
to all the women and men
It’s time in 2012
to be voting for Obama again
Yes, we’re voting for Obama again.

I suppose the moderates and conservatives can play too, if they so choose. I’ve been working all day on my first pro-Obama music video of the new election cycle! Back in ’08, I had a lot of fun using my meager musical and media skills to post whimsical political videos in favor of my candidate, […]

If women ran the world, there would be no war.
Or far less war… perhaps.
I spent some time trying to find a feminist thinker who had expressed this sentiment, hoping to start this blog off with a nice quote. I couldn’t find such a quote. Instead, this idea that if women ran things there would be less conflict is something that has just sort of wormed it’s way into the heart of feminist ideology.
