Some comments in the blogosphere:

Olbermann has finally said what millions have already known: Bush is "playing politics" with terrorism", exploiting terrorism for political purposes and endangering American lives by doing so. Olbermann, at last, openly questions and documents the curious and statistically questionable timing of a series of phony terror alerts:
Now someone is going to warn me that my toothpaste could be a bomb? That is such a looney idea as to make my crazy rants look sane.

Did anyone see Brazil? If not, I highly recommend this masterpiece (be sure to first read 1984).

Yeah...I know: I should post this on TSP. :twisted:

In case anyone's been wondering why I haven't posted here lately, I've been working to improve labor conditions and low income communities 54 hours a week for Rhode Island acorn, a local office of a national group as active as the sierra club. I love it to death but it's incredibly hard work.

I'm a community organizer. I organize low income neighborhoods and empower them to make a difference by joining our organization, knocking on their neighbors' doors, voting, and doing direct actions of civil disobedience. I am so lucky to be able to fight the good fight for a living. And one of our goals nationally is raising each and every state's minimum wage to ten dollars an hour or more. Massachusetts is at eight. Some states are still at five and change.

My boss is actually really into the slip, which is not a huge surprise as most of the fans from providence went in to some kind of work for the good of everybody. But it's really cool none the less.

I recommend people who need jobs in our area take up canvassing for Rhode Island acorn. You can find our contact info at this site: www.acorn.org under offices. My friend who runs the canvass is really cool and it's a well payed position with rapid growth potential.

The inner cities are becoming superdomes as the shit continues to flow down from the presidential sphincter. And we have to stand still and zen as statues and not one of us sit down until it flushes. This election is going to be huge, and if you want to be involved with increasing your voter turnout in your community, get registration cards and hit the streets, then call everyone you register to remind them to vote!!

Okay, seacrest out.
:D
