#OccupyWallStreet Class War
$422,320
I recently shocked someone by saying it may not be worth it for him to send his kid to college. He got quite huffy, basically saying it was important as a parent to bankrupt yourself for your children’s future. I said it didn’t make sense to me, especially now. I said if I had young kids now, I’d encourage them to be plumbers or electricians: That’s what The Daily, News Corp. and Apple’s daily news outlet for the iPad, calculated a college [...]

Politics As Usual The Regime
Dear Andrew Sullivan
I read this essay Andrew Sullivan did for Newsweek about why Obama’s critics are so dumb, and my reaction was, “Spoken like someone with a job and health insurance.” Now the Atlantic’s Conor Friedersdorf dissects it for us: To Sullivan, this is the big picture story of the Obama Administration: “the president begins by extending a hand to his opponents; when they respond by raising a fist, he demonstrates that they are the source of the problem; then, finally, he [...]

My So-Called Life
Update

I just finished a bowl of chicken noodle soup and so far, so good. I may even get around to taking a shower soon. The cuts are all very small, except for a three-inch one at the top. I seem to remember the recovery [...]

Full Frontal Feminism Scary Crazy Wingnuts Theocracy
God’s will
Just to show you how the wingnuts who are trying to get in power think about these things: In an article about the reasons Rep. Michele Bachmann’s campaign fizzled, the Des Moines Register points to “sexism among conservatives,” singling out an offensive email written by a staffer to Rick Santorum: Rival presidential candidate Rick Santorum’s Iowa coalitions director, Jamie Johnson, sent out an email saying that children’s lives would be harmed if the nation had a female president.
