Draft Hillary – New Hampshire ??? »

As a loyal Clintonista and New Hampshire resident, I’m trying to get my hands around this idea. At first it seems ludicrous to try and pull off a write-in. This is the USA, not some backwater little country, but then I think, maybe the time is right? As the writers point out, this is the [...]

Why I hate to visit my own website and … »

Author’s foreword. My dear old friend Bronwyn wrote today and asked me what I’ve been up to and what I think of the prospects for 2012. My short reply got me a suggestion to cross post something I wrote at Partizane back in July. First, let me assure you that I no longer hate to [...]

Clinton Family Values »

I wonder if the family values of Bill and Hillary Clinton will give pause to the right, to FOX and others.

Flu Scare – The ADHD Administration never wastes a good crisis »

We are the ADHD electorate that keeps getting played and distracted by the masters of distraction.  To paraphrase the President’s Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel "Never waste a good crisis". Now I don’t think they started this flu epidemic, nor do they control the WHO, but they do control the media that is trying so [...]

Touching me Touching you – So many ways to meet a swine »

Don’t Touch that dial!  Use your sleeve to open that door!  Use Purell, wash your hands.  Don’t touch your face.  Stay at home locked in a bubble.  Touching me, touching you.   How many ways are there to touch each other? Seriously.

Independence Day »

Yes folks!  I finally did it.  I’ve been saying since last June that I would change my registration to “Undeclared”, the New Hampshire version of Independent, and today I finally had the time.

Will the NRA say he could have used a knife? »

(Bumped up by Administrator) CNN, in the url, calls it a “Shooting Spree”. You know, like a fun time shopping before the wedding. http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/03/11/alabama.shooting.spree/index.html Personally, I think these insane incidents involving guns are completely avoidable. I also know that we have a mixed crowd here and I’m pissing off some friends. Too bad because I [...]

California must be rescued. It really is too big to fail. »

I’m no economist and this is just my personal un-educated opinion, not the Noquarter management. But that’s never stopped me from writing about other subjects I take seriously.  I take California seriously and sometime early this morning I awoke with a thought I can’t get rid of.  California must be rescued at all costs. This [...]

I Refuse to Participate in Obama’s Recession »

I wish I knew who first said “I refuse to participate in a recession”.  I hear it from the guy I work for almost every week.  And you know what?  With all his typical, pain in the ass business owner faults, this is one strength I admire to no end and the one idea that [...]

Don’t all rush to the magazine aisle at once »

Please, Please, No Stampede to get the March Issue of Vogue with your favorite fashion icon on the cover. As I’ve said before, I think she is off limits until she does something worthy of our writing.  She is an intelligent woman I will not denigrate, without damn good reasons. Here I just wanted everyone [...]
