The League

That’s this dude from youtube. He’s going to be on the TV box. He’s really funny, I hope you enjoy him singing a happy birthday song to kids about what happened 5 years, 9 months before that date.

Vote for McGinn!

So after watching the debates I finally heard everything I need to make my decision. I’ve liked much of what McGinn has said but this last debate sold me on this very point.
McGinn – Broadband would be an upgrade to our internet infrastructure, national studies and city studies show that laying fiber optic cable [...]

Alex Jones is Fear Mongering

Ok so in trying to understand the opposition to…well…everything I watched the new Alex Jones movie. It’s got a really scary title “Fall of the Republic – The Obama Presidency”. It takes a few good shots at the president, analyzing the rhetoric of the campaign to the actions, or even in actions, he [...]

Medicare For All

Here’s an idea, drop this “public option” stuff. Medicare for All.
I read today More than 200,000 people called congress Tuesday in an attempt to sway their opinion on health care reform (and I’m assuming the vast majority of them were for the public option). Silly American people, Congress doesn’t answer to you anymore [...]

Beck is a Dump Truck

Now he wants to attack net neutrality because….it will lead to free internet for everyone?
BECK: OK. I want to start just real quick – Net neutrality, because it happens on Thursday. This is that everybody should have free Internet, right?

The Progressive Legacy of Slavery

I want whatever Glen Beck this Straw man is smoking. I don’t know what progressives he’s referring to but since the beginning…
Progressives such as William [...]

Baby Behave, We’ll Make It Work

You’re not golden
And I’m getting tired
Act like you own the place
When really you’ve only just arrived
Looking at the last 600 years of a corporate dominated society, you’ve only just arrived.
I’ve tried patience, but
You always want a war
This house won’t tolerate any more
Stop this right away
Put that down and clean this mess up
End of conversation
Put your [...]

Mike McGuinn for Mayor!

I’ve watched the mayors race since it started, Joe Mallahan continues to prove he’s an idiot while McGuinn has great new answers every time I find a clip of him.
Jobs and Economy – President Roosevelt created the CCC. Seattle can learn from history. We need a jobs program to put people to work on things [...]
