Week of August 16, 2009 - August 22, 2009

Rot


I am sure everyone has seen the story about Novak , who died today or yesterday.  I just want to say, "May he rot in hell."  No hard feelings.

Mystery


I have two posts right now (this one makes the third).  The first one is a typical irritated post yelling at political operatives who do not visit these pages.  It has 12 recommendations at 9 pm on Sunday.  The second one, which I posted probably an hour later, provides very practical guidance for how to take specific concrete action about the same irritating matter.  It has 4 recommendations at 9 pm.

To my mind, the second one is more worthwhile.  The first one is feel good, but provides no help to anyone.

Why do the blowhard posts get the most recommendations?

Sell Outs


Senators and Congressmen generally do not care about messages from non-constituents.  But, they also do not like receiving large piles of messages that tell them they are wrong.  They can be shaken.

Here is Kent Conrad's webform.  He is this week's public option sell out.  Tell him what you think about that.

Not about Electing More Democracts


Here is a headline at Raw Story:

Carville: Let GOP kill health care -- then run against them

And that is why Carville is so stupid.  We have elected enough Democrats.  It is time for them to make the decisions we elected them for.  If they cannot, it will be time to elect some Green Party members to remind Democrats they are not the only option we have.

Bio

I live on a small island in the Atlantic Ocean, not far off the coast of New York. Not far, at all. I did not always live in the Nawth. In the state where I grew up (which does not know it is a state), *every* American cultural practice began. It is in their history books.
