War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Bluster and bullshit go hand-in-hand: Reportedly, there’s some kind of big game this weekend, don’t know myself, but a lot of hype out there about it — Sunday’s a good day to get some good sleep, though. Of course, there’s so much chatter about that particular sporting event, but not much on really what’s happening…
In an era of supposed enlightenment, marijuana still remains on the fringe — Dude, that needs to change. Newt Gingrich, however, does appear even worse after a couple of tokes — some changes require way more. Pot is the weaker sister — the big headline in this story was marijuana, but alas… A Rhode Island…
Any half-sane person is by now sick to the bowels of the GOP — Mitt Romney won the Florida primary, but the question posed: Who gives a shit? Although President Obama is most-likely the most-disappointing leader in US history, he’s leagues above Romney and the rest of his half-assed, ignorant Republican buddies, as the above-mentioned…
Evening into morning — and everything is still dark. Some overriding health issues have caused me to have not a good night, thus, creating less-ability to compose coherent thoughts, and way-harder to transfer to blog lines (was about to write paper, but that’s so 1970s). There’s plenty out yonder in the big, wide world to…
Monday morning, and getting close to the end of another month — time flies when all kinds of shit are hitting the fan. Including this horror show in Florida — and I don’t mean the upcoming GOP primary: “As it was happening on the northbound side, it was happening on the southbound side as well,”…
Sunrise this morning was a cool blue eastern sky here on California’s northern coast — so far a much-warmer winter, and a much-drier season than normal. Old-time local folks say a throwback to the 1960s. And as a guy working a liquor store, people do discuss the weather. Comments border on the incredulous for the…
Yesterday after work, I put another $20 worth of gas in the old Jeep Comanche, now back up at $3.89 a gallon for regular — up three cents since the last time we visited the pump, less than a week ago. And in line with the rest of the US, pump prices rose nearly 3.5…
Using Osama bin Laden as a kind of verbal bookends, President Obama jumped on reality with a touch of a man-up pose in his state-of-the-union speech last night, calling on the US to “restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of…
A horse walks into a bar in South Carolina, the bartender asks: Why the long face? A newt peed on me, answers the horse. The chaotic mess of the GOP primary is finally over and Newt Gingrich urinated on everything. In shame of Republicans, half-crazed Steven Colbert humiliated the entire process by shoving the way-ugly…
(Illustration found here). In the US today, apparently all collective eyes were glued to South Carolina where intelligence-deficit Republicans held their primary to select from among a short-list of bullshitters a warm body to run against President Obama this November. And Newt Gingrich is now the man of the hour — a later laugh is…
