For decades, it has been obvious that there are irreconcilable differences between Americans who want to control the lives of others and those who wish to be left alone. Which is the more peaceful solution: Americans using the brute force of government to beat liberty-minded people into submission or simply parting company? In a marriage, where vows are ignored and broken, divorce is the most peaceful solution. Similarly, our constitutional and human rights have been increasingly violated by a government instituted to protect them. Americans who support constitutional abrogation have no intention of mending their ways. Since Barack Obama's re-election, hundreds of thousands of ...

Is Grover Finally Over?

I once took a long train ride with Grover Norquist. This wasn’t intentional. We found ourselves next to each other on the line to board an Acela from Washington, D.C., to New York, and we fell into a conversation, by which I mean that he did a great deal of talking, in that faintly maniacal way of his, while I presented a captive audience. He continued to talk as we walked along the platform and was still talking as we entered the train, so it was more or less unavoidable that we sit together. Besides which, I was genuinely fascinated, which is a very different adjective from amused. This happened earlier this year, around the time that pundits galore were weighing in on whom Mitt ...

Yes, it’s time to talk about Israel. By this I don’t mean that we need to go through yet another round of who-did-what-to- whom rhetoric in the shrill tones of moral absolutism that pervade the subject these days. There’s a point to discussing ethical issues surrounding the origins, conduct, and future of the nation-state of Israel, to be sure, but that discussion is already happening elsewhere, or more precisely would be happening if most of the potential participants weren’t too busy shouting past each other. What gets misplaced in all the noise, though, is that this is not the only discussion worth having. In particular, the central theme of this series of ...

Why it’s cool(er) to be liberal again
Post Date: 2012-11-25 16:51:48 by Ferret Mike
2 Comments
The L-word is quietly working its way back into the political lexicon. The number of voters identifying themselves as “liberal” jumped three points on Election Day, from 22 percent in 2008 to 25 percent this year. That’s the highest that number has been since at least 1976, according to exit polls. The term “liberal” has long been somewhat of a pejorative in American politics — or at least been less popular than the alternative. When Ronald Reagan was reelected in 1984, just 17 percent of Americans identified as “liberal.” And even back when the founder of the New Deal, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, took 61 percent of the vote in 1936, it was more ...

GOP Needs To Dump Tea Party, Religious Right

I don’t exactly feel sorry for Republicans, but I wonder how they will ever shed their two biggest anchors. They have become beholden to both the social agenda of the religious right and the silly rhetoric of the Tea Party. Catering to these two inflexible and nasty groups of close-minded people is why they lost so big in this last election. In order to go forward Republicans are going to have to find a way to minimize the impacts of the Tea Party and religious right or abandon them both completely. The funny thing is that not so long ago these two groups had very little if any power in a party I once considered myself to be a part of. It’s really interesting to see the reaction ...

News outlets are reporting that GOP Senator Saxby Chambliss is ready to cave into Democrats and go along with their tax increases. As predicted, the Republicans will agree to immediate specific tax increases in exchange for some unspecific promises for some unspecified spending cuts at some undetermined future date. Of course, the spending cuts will never materialize. The GOP has done it before. They will do it again. This is why the GOP is known as the Stupid Party.

Obama Can No Longer Afford To Give Israel Blank Checks

The transformation of America away from a white European-dominated society to a multi-ethnic mosaic is ending the United States’ romantic interlude with right-wing “Judeo-Christian” political leadership. The election of 2012 has proven that America that has backed right-wing dictatorships around the world, as well as the theocratic and woefully undemocratic regime of Israel, is changing its political hue. The demographic change in the United States will have a severe impact on the domination of Israel’s pressure groups, namely the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), and the American Jewish Committee (AJC) over American ...

Bizarro World logic vs. Israel

A cartoon image comes to mind. A mother breaks up a fight between two children, one of whom offers this defense: “It started when he hit me back.” Remember that mentality when you hear Palestinians call Israel “the aggressor.” Hamas fired hundreds, perhaps 1,000 missiles into Israel from Gaza. They hit schools, apartment buildings, streets and vacant lots. The aim was to kill and, if not to kill, at least to terrorize. Mission accomplished. Finally, Israel responded, first by “droning” the Hamas military leader, then by airstrikes against the terror group’s ammunition dumps and rocket launchers, some intentionally placed near mosques and houses. So, ...

I Was David Petraeus's Bitch in the 90s and I Hated Every Second of It

I WAS DAVID PETRAEUS'S BITCH IN THE 90S AND I HATED EVERY SECOND OF IT Over the weekend, the media went into a feeding frenzy over the big, juicy, red-meat news that David Petraeus, the former head of the CIA and onetime adored four-star general, had been banging his fawning biographer, Paula Broadwell. If you’ve been following this somewhat-less-than-Shakespearean tragedy, you’ll know by now they were getting it on under his desk—that giant oaken hunk of power that no doubt displayed a miniature American flag and framed photos of his family. When I read about this, I imagined those photos jumping around on top of the desk while the great conqueror of Iraq invaded that ...

There has been much talk of late about America’s “fiscal cliff.” As troubling as our impending (Obama-spurred) economic collapse may be – and it is more troubling than even our most pessimistic economists are willing to admit – I’m even more concerned about fast-mounting tensions worldwide. As the world government ship of fools drifts unmanned amid a sea of unparalleled global volatility, we, her passengers, behold – brewing on the horizon – an economic and foreign relations “perfect storm.” As so often is the case, the hurricane swirls around the Middle East. Historically, the president of the United States has captained the ship. He has, heretofore, been duly regarded “leader of ...

Lately there has been all this talk about a fiscal cliff. Hey folks if you haven't noticed we are already on a fiscal cliff. Have been for a long time with all this debt the government keeps giving us. So I don't see what is so bad about these cuts that are supposed to go into affect. Let it happen it is just a baby step in the right direction. We will still have huge deficits even if these miniscule cuts go into affect. Yeah there are some increases in taxes too but so be it.

The Middle East this week? Think Colorado in July and the movie megaplex massacre - but instead of a lone gunman on the lose in cinema nine, there's a gang shooting it up in all 16 theatres. New noises from Cinema Gaza pretty well mask an emerging reality in Cinema Jordan - after a year and more of tap-dancing to avoid the Arab Spring's rapier tip, analysts detected blood on the garments of King Abdullah II and his Marie Antoinette queen - Rania. Like Bashar Al-Assad in Cinema Syria, Abdullah thought he might - and here, please, excuse a seeming contradiction - finesse his way through the irritation of the Arab Spring with a series of crude gestures that have failed to head off a ...

I’m sure by now regular readers are well aware that Texas Congressman Ron Paul is serving out his 12th -- and final -- term in the House of Representatives and will soon retire from public life. Somewhat unexpectedly, however, during his humble and moving final speech on the House floor a few days ago, I was surprised to hear him speak, among other things, about his “failure” to rein in the size and scope of government during his long and distinguished political career. To some extent this is undoubtedly true -- after all, the United States is headed straight for a debt crisis that lawmakers in Washington seem utterly incapable of averting, let alone reversing. On the other ...

The Unforgivable Republican Racism Against Ambasador Susan Rice

The Republicans twice proved that they were a racist party when they ran, not once, but twice, against Obama, hoping to deny an entire generation of black children a chance to grow up with a real role model who can teach them responsibility and good spending habits. And let's face it, the Republican attacks on UN Ambassador Susan Rice are another reminder that the Republican Party is a bunch of crazy racists who rush to blame a black woman when she spends days lying about an attack on a US consulate. If a white man had lied about the murder of four Americans, then he would have gotten a pass on it. Unless he’s a Southern European brother like Leon Panetta or a Mediterranean ...

At his news conference Wednesday, President Barack Obama postured as the young Galahad striding out onto the schoolyard to stop a pair of bullies from beating up a girl. Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham had charged U.N. Amb. Susan Rice with misleading the nation when, five days after the Benghazi attack in which Amb. Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed, she appeared on five TV shows to say it had all resulted from a spontaneous reaction to an anti-Muslim video. Susan Rice, thundered Obama, "made an appearance at the request of the White House in which she gave her best understanding of the intelligence that had been provided to her. "If Sen. McCain and Sen. ...

Mitt Romney now joins the long list of the kinds of presidential candidates favored by the Republican establishment-- nice, moderate losers, people with no coherently articulated vision, despite how many ad hoc talking points they may have. The list of Republican presidential candidates like this goes back at least as far as 1948, when Thomas E. Dewey ran against President Harry Truman. Dewey spoke in lofty generalities while Truman spoke in hard-hitting specifics. Since then, there have been many re-runs of this same scenario, featuring losing Republican presidential candidates John McCain, Bob Dole, Gerald Ford and, when he ran for reelection, George H.W. Bush. Bush 41 first succeeded ...

I realize receiving a letter from a time traveler can be confusing, and you may believe this is some kind of a prank. To verify my time-traveling skills, I have enclosed within this envelope a tuft of white hair from a man of African descent. It is yours and it’s from the floor of your favorite barbershop ten years from now, by which point you will appear to be much older than 61. Please have it carbon-dated after verifying the DNA. Shocking, yes? I’m here to tell you something. In short: I am impressed. As a propagandist, you have achieved everything I set out to do. You soared to victory this week like a Bundesadler in a Leni Riefenstahl film. I’m amazed der Juden and ...

The GOP's Media Cocoon

A long-simmering generational battle in the conservative movement is boiling over after last week’s shellacking, with younger operatives and ideologues going public with calls that Republicans break free from a political-media cocoon that has become intellectually suffocating and self-defeating. GOP officials have chalked up their electoral thumping to everything from the country’s changing demographics to an ill-timed hurricane and failed voter turn-out system, but a cadre of Republicans under 50 believes the party’s problem is even more fundamental. The party is suffering from Pauline Kaelism. Kael was The New Yorker movie critic who famously said in the wake of Richard ...

The election results have caused me to rethink how we all can help the country get back on track without relying on politics and elections. Back in the 1980s, my ex-wife boycotted McDonald's for two years because Ray Kroc's wife gave $1 million to the Democrat National Committee after Ray passed away. It was a good idea then. It's a better idea now. No more paying $9 to see any more Hollywood movies in theaters. I can wait until they show up on the basic cable channels. No more paying for songs on iTunes from leftist musicians. I can listen to the radio or Pandora for free. I have a Jeep and a Chrysler van. No more buying GM or Chrysler bailout cars. In fact, no more buying ...

After its second defeat at the hands of Barack Obama, under whom unemployment has never been lower than the day George W. Bush left office, the Republican Party has at last awakened to its existential crisis. Eighteen states have voted Democratic in six straight elections. Among the six are four of our most populous: New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and California. And Obama has now won two of the three remaining mega-states, Ohio and Florida, twice. Only Texas remains secure — for now. At the presidential level, the Republican Party is at death’s door. Yet one already sees the same physicians writing prescriptions for the same drugs that have been killing the GOP since ...

Only in America can a president who inherits a deep recession and whose policies have actually made the effects of that recession worse get re-elected. Only in America can a president who wants the bureaucrats who can't run the Post Office to micromanage the administration of every American's health care get re-elected. Only in America can a president who kills Americans overseas who have never been charged or convicted of a crime get re-elected. And only in America can a president who borrowed and spent more than $5 trillion in fewer than four years, plans to repay none of it and promises to borrow another $5 trillion in his second term get re-elected. What's going on here? ...
