"Food and gas prices sharply up in US"
Wait, didn’t Sarah Palin warn this was going to happen? HOPE AND CHANGE! AP: Gas prices jumped 4.7 percent in February, above January’s increase but below December’s rise. Oil and gas prices have risen sharply since the beginning of the year due to political turmoil in the Middle East. Food costs increased 0.6 percent, the most since September 2008.

"Two Democrats Charged in Tea Party Election Fraud"
This is outrageous! How can dedicated, principled activists for good be charged with felonies when all they are really guilty of is working to ensure that SOCIAL JUSTICE isn’t strangled in its crib by election results that favor those who are demonstrably evil enough to do the strangling?

an open letter to anyone I may have emailed

Trading the optics of meeting your (tiny) cuts to the budget for an agreement to raise the debt ceiling and keep the government open —

sigh, redux [note: this post answers charges made publicly that I am in receipt of a cease and desist letter, sent me because I (knowingly) "serially" "harassed" someone by email. Feel free to skip it if it doesn't interest you. Lord knows it doesn't interest me.]

The New Civility, 45
Yet another reason to end public unions. Upon arrival, members of the recall committee were encircled by union protesters carrying signs and a leader with a mega phone who began chanting and ranting loudly. They packed in tightly around the petition collection table so as to prevent those attempting to sign from doing so. At one point, a pro union protester, pretending to be interested in signing the petition, wrote
