Op-Ed Contributor - Goodbye to All That - NYTimes.com
I certainly agree that the fact that we have only two political parties in America is a big reason why our system of government has become completely dysfunctional and is failing before our very eyes....
Old People Getting Stoned More
In her 88 years, Florence Siegel has learned how to relax: A glass of red wine. A crisp copy of The New York Times, if she can wrest it from her husband. Some classical music, preferably Bach. And every night like clockwork, she lifts a pipe to her lips and smokes marijuana.

Ron Paul Wins CPAC 2012 GOP Presidential Straw Poll
In this sense, Paul's renegade campaign looks startlingly similar to that of Ralph Nader's run against Al Gore and the establishment Democrats in 2000.
We all know how that turned out....

The Onion: Tiger Woods Announces Return to Sex
"Not being able to get out there and have sex has really been tough on me," Woods said. "I've missed it. I love fucking with all my heart."
America Shuts Down for Tiger Woods TV Apology
Let's see: we've got a ballooning multiple trillion dollar national debt that threatens to bankrupt not only this generation but about the ten subsequent ones as well.
We are fighting two full on, vicious, bloody wars in far away places where the locals want us to leave. Yesterday.
The environment is a smoldering clusterfuck with species after species dwindling (except humans, of course) in number or going completely extinct, and natural habitats being destroyed by millions of acres every day...
The nation's health care system is completely off the rails with costs spiraling to the ionosphere and beyond--
And last but not least, it's becoming increasingly apparent that our nation's entire system of government--founded ostensibly on the principles of democracy and majority rule. Is completely, utterly...patently. Dysfunctional.
But Tiger Woods cheated on his wife. And now he's finally apologizing!
Fake Weed Hits US Streets
This is interesting, and it's only a matter of time I'd say before its banned in the StatesMy question is, is the stuff harmful?
Maniac Wingnut Dunce Flies his Airplane Into IRS Building
I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest this idiot watched Glen Beck on TV and listened to Rush Limbaugh. Yes, chances are Joseph Stack was a wingnut.
Raging against the government and taxes is really easy to do, you see. We pay too much! It isn't fair! Our government is oppressive and large!!
I don't want to study, improve myself, read, go to school, or do anything that might actually take effort and discipline to get a job or get ahead in life....It's the government's fault!

CPAC Speaker Criticizes Obama in Racial Terms
Boy, the freaks sure are out in force at this year's CPAC....
Will America vote en masse for such a group of angry white men in November?
Cooler GOP heads are sensing a potential political disaster in the making right about now, me thinks....

Falklands Friction Heats Up
Lots of people forget that two seemingly harmless, friendly US allies--Argentina and England, fought a nasty full on war back in 1982 over a few small, rocky islands located in the middle of nowhere.60 Billion barrels of oil??....so that's why they fought in the first place!!
England, of course, kicked Argentina's ass--a humiliating loss Argentina has made up for, at least partially, during numerous World Cup matches against England since then.

Iowa Republican Handicaps 2012 GOP Field
Wow, this article--ostensibly authored by a GOP 'insider' has Sarah Palin and Mike Huckabee as the most likely candidates to win the GOP caucuses there in 2012.We all know that neither Huckabee or Palin has any realistic chance whatsoever of becoming elected president (as Tina Fey said, if Palin wins "I'm leaving earth"...)
Which means that the Iowa GOP caucuses will be nearly completely irrelevant in 2012 just as they were in 2008 when Huckabee won and the eventual nominee John McCain didn't even run a campaign there.
Which happens to be a good thing: Iowa, a tiny, overwhelmingly white, totally unrepresentative rural state has no business having the type of influence it has nearly every presidential cycle due to it being the first state to hold its caucus or primary...
Rothenberg 2010 Senate Update
When it comes to American political prognostication, Stu Rothenberg is the gold standard. As he states, the chances are infinitesimal that the GOP takes control of the Senate in 2010--however it is equally clear that they will make big gains.
The Senate was intractably deadlocked and dysfunctional with the Democrats having a 60-40 majority this past year. So much so that anything might be an improvement next year....that's what voters seem to indicating, at least--

Arnold Schwarzenegger Has A Question For His Golf Partner: "When Was Your Last Blow Job?"
Only in America folks.... Only. In. America...My friend played in a Pro-Am with California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. They introduce themselves and walk up to the first tee. Arnold has this huge cigar in his mouth as he puts the tee in the ground and asks my friend, "When was your last blow job?"
My friend chuckles a little bit and says, "A couple nights ago, I guess." Arnold doesn't say anything, pulls back the club and mid backswing (in his "Terminator" voice) asks, "How did it taste?" and swings through and shanks the ball 50 yards dead right out of bounds.
Bayh Announces Retirement
Wow, this is big...My initial thought is that he's doing this because he believes it will help him win the presidency one day. Bayh was Obama's close second choice to Joe Biden to be his VP choice. If his sole political ambition is to win the presidency, this is probably a smart move....get away from the partisanship morass that is today's DC and get above the fray...
Boy there hasn't been a lot of good news for the Democratic party over the past few months though...
The Indiana Senate seat just went from being safe Democrat to lean Republican takeover....

Joe the Plumber Goes Rogue
this is one of the funniest stories I've seen recently...
Wurzelbacher touched on several different points during his speech, and many of them were surprising. He said he doesn’t support Sarah Palin anymore. Why? Because she’s backing John McCain’s re-election effort. “John McCain is no public servant,” he told the room, calling the 2008 Republican nominee a career politician.
I pointed out he’d just be plain old Sam Wurzelbacher of Ohio — Joe the Plumber wouldn’t exist – without McCain. His response was blunt. “I don’t owe him s—. He really screwed my life up, is how I look at it.”
