DADT’s Days are Numbered

well, they seem to be coming around now. I don’t think it can be understated just how huge The CJCS and Colin Powell’s endorsement is for the death of DADT.

» Posted By SanityNow On February 9, 2010 @ 2:31 pm

I was in the USAF before DADT and I knew many, many gay and lesbian service members. They served as well or better than all. Most everyone knew and most everyone made no issue of it at all.

DADT is on its deathbed and there will be no DNR for it.

“Undercover Boss” Indeed

helpless yet completely dependent

» Posted By SanityNow On February 9, 2010 @ 2:25 pm

LOL, I worked at Frank Gehry’s studios in Santa Monica and then Marina del Rey, and he actually has someone print out his email so that he can read them each day. His assistant responds electronically for him. He could not stand even looking at a computer and this coming from a man whose success is fully enabled by the bleeding edge of design technology. priceless.

Thanks AdLib, great post.

the grooming has been going on for quite some time but I can’t escape the feeling that the effort has been exponentially ratcheted up with the SCOTUS ruling. The most obvious example of undue corporate influence on public dialogue is clearly Murdoch’s News Corp in general and Faux Pneus specifically. Our fifth estate has been almost entirely subverted. Faux is the worst by far, allowing their “journalists” to mc partisan political events and hiring partisan pols to be the face of the network.

The fact that CBS allows their network to be the mouth piece of Focus on the Family’s reactionary message, I think, heralds the comming of the challenge to Roe v. Wade. The SCOTUS seems all to willing and eager to reverse more hard earned precedent.

And I think your take on Undercover Boss is wholly accurate.

The grooming of America continues.

Why Conservatives are Always WRONG

deceptively simplistic, emPHASis on deceptively

Auntie,
He really does break it down nicely, no? That passage is a chillingly accurate encapsulation of the Right mind.

I have been liking to counter the “enhanced interrogation” meme with: Torture is not an interrogation technique. Torture is the desire for revenge.

share his article.

peace,

BDM,
I am happy you appreciate his work. This is something that needs more exposure. He did a great deal of work in his research and analysis. He wasn’t planning to do anything other than let the interwebs take it so pass it along if you think more people should be exposed to this rational perspective on an irrational problem.

in his email reply, he mentioned this:

The Presidents We Imagine
Two Centuries of White House Fictions on the Page, on the Stage, Onscreen, and Online

http://uwpress.wisc.edu/books/4516.htm

I haven’t read it but I am a sucker for American history. I’ve read most of the presidential biographies and eat that stuff up like candy.

Choice, your welcome. I was lucky to have found it. Mr. Smith put a goodly amount of effort in to this and I feel it needs the light of day.

» Posted By SanityNow On February 8, 2010 @ 8:18 pm

thanks Sue.I am very glad to have stumbled upon it and am pleased to pass it along.

» Posted By SanityNow On February 8, 2010 @ 8:16 pm

it is exasperating to say the very least when the other side of the debate refuses to acknowledge shared history and facts of all persuasions.

Jefferson Smith’s article, while lengthy, is packed with rational logic. I would say it is irrefutable, but as we see these days, the Dark Side will refute its own existence (which is the whole point of the article) if they think it would get them back in power.

» Posted By SanityNow On February 8, 2010 @ 8:15 pm

that certainly seems to be a consistent part of the persistent, tired conservative argument for preserving the status quo.

» Posted By SanityNow On February 8, 2010 @ 1:37 pm

Good. It’s long but not too long. I think you’ll enjoy it.

» Posted By SanityNow On February 8, 2010 @ 9:10 am

sure. it’ll give you some good ideas…
