Ah, yes, totally equivalent. I often consider the mass extermination of a group of people to be of equal importance to the survival of a business entity. Can’t you just see Bono and the rest of the world’s aid organizations holding some sort of NYT Relief rally? In fact, I would suggest that they hold such a relief rally IN Darfur so as to show those people that there are people in the world whose suffering FAR exceeds their own. [From TIME Quote of the Day] Seriously, at what point do you become so deluded in your own self importance that you believe that saving a NEWSPAPER compares to the rape and murder of entire populations of people? On to your weekly romp: The sad … Continue reading

Weekly Romp Through The MN Blogs
So there is this brand new blog in Minnesota that is all the rage. The build up to the big roll out has been dramatic due in no small part to Dusty Trice pimping himself out all over the Twitterverse. It is particularly amusing to see that Mr. Trice has chosen Norm Coleman and Michele Bachmann as his subjects of choice. I hate to rag on Trice so early in his blog career & I certainly don’t want to pick a fight with a self described political ninja (I tried that one time and got the beat down) but is this really what we have been holding our breath for? Another examination of just how crazy Bachmann is and more content about the Coleman v. … Continue reading

A recent tweet from SCSUScholars (On the show today, we’ll ask the question, what would Reagan do (if he lived in these times)? #finalword) got me wondering about a few things. First, isn’t one of the core principles of conservatism a fervent belief in self reliance? The idea that you should be able to do things on your own without the assistance or interference from any other person or government? Second, If this is one of the core principles of conservatism, then why is the above question about what Reagan would do asked so often? A party which prides itself on self reliance and decries the reliance on others really ought not be relying on Ronald Reagan for its ideas and solutions. Perhaps I am … Continue reading

Let me be clear, I am NOT suggesting that this image is the visual representation of the current Republican Party. I would NEVER suggest that their party is so far out of the mainstream that to any regular person their appearance is jarring and perhaps somewhat comical. There is certainly NO correlation between the blank vapid stare of this woman and the empty black hole that is the Republican Party. Once again, I am not suggesting anything of the sort and anyone reading some deeper meaning into this image is OBVIOUSLY not reading the carefully worded disclaimer associated with the image! On to the weekly romp: I received a package in the mail this week with a horse head in it! My only conclusion is … Continue reading

So, apparently this week marked the birthday of some former President whose mere mention sends conservative hearts all a flutter. For a party dominated by homophobic tendencies, you really have to admire how openly these conservative men express their love for another man. So, to help them express their secret man love for Ronald Reagan, I put up a sweet picture of Reagan in a swimsuit. Enjoy it boys! On to the weekly romp: Representative Walz decided to sign on to some boring legislation about some 19th century technology that no one really cares about. Come on Tim, you can do better than that! Isn’t there a ‘We Love Puppies‘ Act or ‘Make Congresspeople Beg For Food‘ Initiative that you could be sponsoring instead? That … Continue reading
