It has to be an unbelievable rush for anyone to command the attention and control that Tom…I mean Ted Cruz has stumbled into. I can’t say that I, (and probably most people), if suddenly in a position to make big things happen, wouldn’t at least take that power for a…
Anybody ever have a medical insurance issue, (I’m intuiting a unanimous show of hands)? Let me first explain that all of those problems, from the disallowed coverage of the one drug you needed or the denial of your life-saving liver transplant based on…well, nothing really other than your insurer’s arbitrary…

They have always warred; for territory and property; for ideology; out of cruelty and bigotry and madness; for freedom, liberty and justice; on the offense and in defense; and people die by the thousands,…
Wednesday is the fiftieth anniversary of the “March on Washington”, (actually, The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, but we tend to abbreviate over time), and therefore the fiftieth anniversary of the “I Have a Dream” speech, (the actual transcript of which, we now know, did not contain that…
I’m thinking, that buried deep in our DNA, (probably descended from Cain), is a universal, overpowering urge of denial in the face of undeniable complicity.

I’m just going to believe the majority of the reported profiles of Eddie Snowden, that he was one smart cookie. I’m going to assume that his job required some pretty thorough background checks, some sort of psych evaluation and some years of loyal experience to achieve the level of clearance…
