The Taliban

The Taliban- it's not about religion purity, it's about cruelty and control. It's about men who have no empathy, no respect, no compassion finding an organization that will shelter them. It's about raping, demeaning and killing women and harming children.

The Taliban is yet another example of the utter banality of evil. This is what we have failed to stop and what we must be able to work with the world to stop!

Taxing day

So, I paid the state taxes and I am expecting a refund from the Feds. It's rather all routine, now and I must accept the fact that my taxes will go towards such weirdness as subsidizing Major League Soccer. Sigh.

The so-called Tea Party protest happened today in Pioneer Place. Interesting that these people were not around when US treasuries started to ramp up sales to Asian countries ten years ago, when a costly and foolish war was started seven years ago, when credit card companies pushed forward the more stringent and costly bankruptcy laws that screw so many, not around for corporate raids on tax deffered status in their communities. And if John McCain was the President, none of these fools would have shown up.

But now, now, by golly, these people are hopping mad.

Whatever.

Happy Easter- and a bit of funny

Happy Easter, Guys- and check out that new Obama Poster!

Well, there goes my trip to Italy this year

Horrible news. At least 150 dead; 1500 wounded. Simply awful.
