Dirty Rotten Scoundrels The Shadow Knows
Another Republican perv
Oh, and he was a Disney “Teacher of the Year,” too. This one’s in Somerville, NJ: Winning coach. Beloved school administrator. Politician. Civil Air Patrol veteran. A father of two stepsons and a daughter. These are accomplishments and accolades on Patrick Lott’s resume. So it came as a shock to those who knew him that Lott — who for so many years had been entrusted with students and athletes — had been arrested and charged with videotaping naked teenage boys [...]

New reason to ‘unlike’ Facebook
Any corporation running a venue that prompts you to “like” something is looking to violate your privacy, probably in order to make money but possibly for more sinister reasons. Only the truly naive will be shocked by Facebook’s latest transgression: Bookmark It

BP
What do you suppose are the odds of substantial charges being brought? And this pisses me off, anyway, because you know that these guys are given the unreasonable standards (low budget, short deadline) and told “do what needs to be done.” Of course, the people at the top never pay: U.S. prosecutors are preparing what would be the first criminal charges against BP PLC employees stemming from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon accident, which killed 11 workers and caused the worst [...]

GMO
Oops! (AP) One of the nation’s most widely planted crops — a genetically engineered corn plant that makes its own insecticide — may be losing its effectiveness because a major pest appears to be developing resistance more quickly than scientists expected. The U.S. food supply is not in any immediate danger because the problem remains isolated.

Well, somewhat. Do you vote for the party that boasts of destroying America or the one that tells you they won’t, but deep down you know is going to fuck you just like the other guys? Americans are an optimistic bunch. We really, really want to believe the lies we’re told.

Now that we know both of these parties have the same agenda (corporate), what of ‘elections’ going forward. i’m out of politics after the Obama Dupe and won’t vote in this next one because every candidate is a Republican (most far right with Obama being moderately right by comparison). Until they get the corporate/Wall Street money out of politics, we can expect it only to get worse.
i’d like to see the OWS movement change this before election time next year so that nobody shows up at the polls because we’re all too busy doing the real work on the ground, locally all over the country.
