The Newt Gingrich Circus (A Re-Published Work)

by Erik the Red December 15, 2011

Update: I wrote this piece almost exactly 2 years ago. However, now that Gingrich is supposedly leading the GOP gang of presidential hopefuls, I thought there was no better time to re-publish the article as a blatant reminder to any people out there who may think that this man is somehow worthy of the nomination.

A Message to Obama – the House – the Senate

by little tboca December 12, 2011

by little tboca Listening to John Boehner’s address today was not just disappointing; it was disgraceful that Republicans are once again playing American’s like a worn out fiddle.

Is THIS the Voice of the Democratic Party?

by Erik the Red September 30, 2011

If any of you think I am a conspiracy theorist, consider me dethroned by one Janeane Garafolo, except that I am perfectly sane, of course. She has already proven that she is “out there”, but when I watch Keith Olbermann         (a big dolt in his own right) enthusiastically embracing her crazy views, I can’t help but to wonder how [...]
