Is your candidate an Armageddonist?

December 19, 2007

Belief in the The Apocalypse of John posits peace as unattainable
until the second coming of Christ:

until there is worldwide conflagration and a Christ based theocracy – peace is impossible.

How can you conduct sane foreign policy when you believe in such inevitabilities?

I heard “oral sex”

August 19, 2007

I heard “oral sex”
ten thousand times more
than “terrorism”.

I saw her face
ten thousand times more
than bin Laden’s.

If only it had been otherwise…

it feels like America again
like a flag snapping high and proud

who oversees the lines
and says – yes! you can speak for me

How Not To Lead

March 22, 2006

Put the maximization of profit above all ideals
call it the American dream.

Invite lobbyists to secretly make policy
declare it executive privilege.

Listen only to people who agree with you
pretend you do otherwise.

Paint all who dissent with a broad pink brush
label them a problem.

Intimidate rather than dialogue
blame it on evil.

squander a surplus
build a deficit

outsource torture
ignore law

fatten the rich
squeeze the poor

call yourself a Christian.
