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. But scientists fear potentially risky farming practices could be blunting the hybrid’s sophisticated weaponry. When it was introduced in 2003, so-called Bt corn seemed [...]

This is how revisionism works. digby is reconstructing digby’s memory about Obama from the getco. Now digby doesn’t know what digby thinks, remembers or feels. That is what it means to live in simulated reality. No true and false, no opposites because no dialectic. All opposites are melted in the inside, just strengthening each other. Every Dominating Discourse has as its structural bedrock: opposites, and in this way the Dominating Discourse continues dialectically. BUT now that we are very much in simulated reality, all there is is credibility.
Digby has ignored the fact that there are those who remember. Why? Because it doesn’t matter. Those who remember can point it out until the election, and it won’t make any difference to digby or anyone else. Because all is credibility. Nothing is ever true or refuted. All alternatives are out there, circulating globally like the numbers on Eric Packer’s screen in Cosmopolis. Hey! DeLilllo to Earth, Are you listening Earth?

Uh, yeah, sure . . . anyway, the only thing I’ve learned about politicians during my life is that words don’t me shit. Actions count and Obama’s actions have been that of a Rethug shill.
