The axis of right-wing extremism

Letter sent to Harry Reid by the wacko birds, et al.: Senator Harry Reid Majority Leader S-221, The Capitol Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Leader Reid: We write to express our alarm with President Obama’s announced intention to take unilateral executive action by the end of this year to lawlessly grant amnesty to immigrants who have entered the country illegally. The Supreme Court has recognized that “over no conceivable subject is

Ongoing

Some good news: my mother’s cancer isn’t in her bones, so the prognosis is a bit better. Maybe 3-6 months. So after her third round of chemo she’ll be released to a nursing home with a rehab facility, and my kids will be able to visit her. On the bad news side: My brother refused to send me the selling documents from the closing of the sale of my mother’s

California voters poised for a huge case of Karma [Darleen Click]

Just got home, glass of wine, shoes off and still pissed enough I could scream. Today was the first day of Prop 47 hell at work. As I ranted last night: AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAARRRRREEEEEEEGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!! There is no curse I imagine vile enough to thrust on my fellow Californians who are voting a big huge “Please come commit crime in our state! We don’t mind! Here’s a fruit basket” Prop 47 looks to

Election afternoon / evening / night / early next morning open thread

Rah-frickin’-rah.

Legal ease? Hardly

True to form, the real estate agent who sold my mother’s house wouldn’t release to me the closing / settlement statement. He told me to contact my brother. When I told him there was no reason to contact my brother — that he doesn’t have POA — he told me that it doesn’t matter because he had it at the time of the sale. So I faxed over the new

2 things [UPDATED]

First, vote. Even if this last time it means holding your noses. Reid must be removed. He’s suffering full-on dementia and he is handmaiden to a radical Marxist President. One exception is voting for Thad Cochran. Fuck him, and fuck all the establishment hacks who used Democrat votes and race-baiting to defeat the candidate the Republicans of Mississippi — not Mitch McConnell and Karl Rove — wanted. The truth is

People out west are higher than you know

This isn’t really a travelogue but I think you folks might want to know that people out west are super, super high. Just really, really high. Very high. At the gas stations, in the kitchens, at the campsites. Very high.

Morality surge

The facility trying to rob my mother of her security deposit is Angel’s Quality Assisted Living in Rosedale, Maryland. The phone number is 443-413-0163. The proprietor is named April Chambers. She’s not answering the phone now but tomorrow she will be. Most of you have cell phones. Many of you are in Maryland yourselves. If you have the time or inclination, perhaps a quick call to April during regular business

Update

Tests came back today on my mother: cancer is stage 4. She’ll do 3 days of chemo starting tomorrow, and depending on how that goes we’ll take it from there. Best-case scenario is a year; prognosis is 2-6 months if she can handle the chemo. Oh. And the assisted living facility that she’d been stuck in at $1500 per month w/ the lights out curfew at nine, sharing a room

Here’s why, even if we see a wave election, we should be more solicitous than giddy

And the reason is this: an omnibus budget bill that gives Obama 9 more months of control over the purse strings, with support of some Republican leaders. Who, let’s face it, are some of the very few people capable of consistently snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. At least, from the standpoint of those they putatively claim to represent. In their own minds, it’s all about political positioning and
