The Same Racism Used To Justify White Supremacist Violence Was Used To Make Cannabis Illegal
I’ve searched Google & Wikipedia. I’ve searched the whole internet (every single tube of it). I even cracked an actual book. There’s no evidence anywhere that racism ever did anything good for anyone. Yet here we are, hostages of America’s racist soul. I’ll warn ya right now — there’s a whole shitload of irony coming.…

Dear CNN & MSNBC – Virtually All Of Your Talking Head Analysis is RUBBISH Or Worse – Here’s Why
Stop me if this is too familiar: you’re watching a cable news show — they show Trump on the White House lawn pitching bullshit so bullshitty it hurts your ears. They cut back to the studio where the show’s host introduces three or four regulars to poke at what they just heard. Now, some shows…

Racism – Like Beauty – Is In The Eye Of The Beholder
Asking a racist if he’s a racist is like asking a stupid person if he’s stupid. Guess how he’s going to answer. In fact, even having to ask if someone’s a racist usually means the person asking the question either IS a racist himself or has no idea what racism is — which means he…

There Is Only One Answer – Election 2016 Must Be Completely Voided
It’s taken almost 3 years for the Main Stream News Media to broadcast things that, when loons like me used to say them, got eye rolls so hard they nearly burst out of the heads rolling them. Russia — or any other bad actor — COULD ABSOLUTELY hack into voting machines — in real time…

Why America’s News Media Sucks — The “Nicolle Wallace” Exception
By all rights, a left wing loon like me should detest Nicolle Wallace from a thousand miles away. But I adore her. I adore her show, Deadline White House on MSNBC. If you aren’t watching it or listening to it, you’re missing one of the few bright spots in the American News Media firmament —…

Why Our News Media Sucks — Steve Kornacki Edition
I consume a lot of news — not so much for the news as because the storyteller in me hates watching the story of all our lifetimes get fumbled so completely by America’s Main Stream News Media. As I’ve blogged here, American journalism is infected with a number of diseases, “Both Sides Do It-ism” being…

Donald Trump Is The American Caligula… That’s Not A Good Thing
Not A Revelation: Donald Trump thinks he’s King… or, in German — “Kaiser” — the Germanification of the name “Caesar”. But Donald Trump is such an incompetent, that he can’t even get being a “Caesar” right. He’s gone and modeled himself after another Roman emperor — Caligula. We keep reaching for the words to describe…

I Made A Terrific New Friend Yesterday — My Diametric Opposite
I am not making this up. I met my diametric opposite a few days ago. We kinda it it off. By yesterday, when we parted ways, I couldn’t get him out of my head. Come the fall, my daughter will matriculate at UC-Davis. Despite the havoc Prop 13 wreaked upon California’s educational system, our state…
