Here is an ORIGINAL song, "Redwood Woman" by singer/songwriter Gale Mead of Napa, California. Governor Palin, if you don't like Ms. Mead's song, "kiss my grits!" Gale's website is www.galemead.com

Governor Palin is certainly one heckava expensive redneck woman, shopping at Neiman-Marcus and other such establishments.

Michelle Obama, wife of Senator Barack Obama, was featured as "cover girl" by National Review on its issue dated April 21, 2008, with the headline Mrs. Grievance and Her Discontent.

We (at the www.publictransit.us blog) know rather little about the writer, Mark Steyn (a self-described "conservative polemicist" and "talk radio" host) and not as much as many Kossacks about the subject, Michelle Obama. But we do know a thing or two about the "structural dishonesty" practiced by National Review.

A large portion of the current tax burden should be shifted to energy and other resource use. This has been advocated by Paul Hawken in his book "Natural Capitalism" and by others. Nothing has yet happened however.

I agree with Sparhawk that this could be part of a Democratic platform, and we need a political strategy to go along with this.

Laundry list under the fold. Read More

(Energy Security = National Security = Economic Security = Societal Security, etc.).

If you see Darth Vader at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles, you should know that something is wrong. That's because our favorite movie villain is a brainchild of George Lucas, who releases Star Wars through 20th Century Fox, not Paramount, the home of Star Trek.

Also, don't go looking for Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck at Disney World. Bugs and Daffy work for Warner Brothers, not Disney!

Also don't expect coherent, rational national security and economic security plans in the Bush Administration's cartoon world. LIke Wile E. Coyote, they think they can "Catch The Security Roadrunner" by pursuing the same sort of tired, shop-worn, ineffective, and just plain wrong Republican strategies tried and found wanting in the Hoover and Reagan Administrations.

Sometimes letter writers to lesser known newspapers prove to be exceptionally eloquent. Alun Wittaker of Vallejo, California responds to a local neo-fascist wing-nut:

A true conservative

I strongly believe that personalities have no place in a political debate, but I must protest Mr. Jack King's letter ("What are they thinking?" Dec. 16) that joins previous writers in accusing me of being a Democrat or even, as he goes on to suggest, worse. He offers me a choice of admitting my "carelessness" for choosing to use the disgusting and loathsome word "egalitarian," or confessing political alignment with Marx, Engels and Mao. Worse yet, he suspects me of being "progressive."

"Insanity is continuing to do the same things over and over again and expecting a different result.

I. The 2004 presidential election was lost not by John Kerry over the last several months but by the Democratic Party over the last serveral decades. Democrats have lost control of all three branches of government for the forseeable future. We are now a minority party. Read More

Kerry should consider breaking Bush's pantywaist "debate" "rules" within 5 minutes of the start of the debate, to annoy Bush but also to give the SCLM a "hook," e.g., like when one goes fishing. Perhaps addressing Bush directly eye-to-eye, or providing a followup answer even when that is "prohibited" (sic): "Mr. Bush, the future of America is at stake in this election, not some pantywaist rules dreamed up by Karl Rove to protect you and your failed policies from the scrutiny they demand. You are currently the President of the United States. The "buck stops on your desk" for all your failed policies. Given the stakes in this election, I couldn't give a damn about Rove's pantywaist "rules." Read More
