The incivility of the right left
Remember this? It’s from an entire website that was developed solely to apologize to the world for re-electing George W. Bush. Say, that right-wing incivility that the pundits are all decrying? Backatcha, pals. In this one, “get the bastards” is … Continue reading

Lori Berenson: a nice Jewish girl from a nice Jewish family? You bet…
The CNN article Peruvian court grants parole to imprisoned U.S. citizen caused me to do some surfing. I didn’t know anything about Lori Berenson. The mere fact that a US citizen was imprisoned for 20 years in Peru – not … Continue reading
