What that post describes is not discipline — it’s cruelty.

But for the record — I don’t think corporal punishment is right, either.

Even sociopaths can get a url.

Child abuse — and murder.

What is wrong with some people…

I have to take issue with the assumption that there is a “mass delusion that women in America have achieved equality.” I mean, we JUST passed the Ledbetter Act.

I can’t disagree w Greenwald on this one. But what I would love to see from him once in a while is a recipe for solving this problem. He’s a great complainer — not so good with the solutions.

If he would write a few articles on the primary process, primary challengers, how to counter big money, or explaining and promoting Instant Runoff Voting, I’d have a lot more respect for him.

Even if he would get on board with a letter writing campaign. Something proactive…

Yeah, it was kinda fun seeing the potential designs.

Usually it just means — do it over

I really like the look — the mag look is very professional. And much better for checking into the site from my computer at work.

I did like the look — I like the red…

Let’s hope this IS a redesign and not a hacking job.

» Posted By nellie On February 23, 2010 @ 3:11 pm

Thanks — I thought it was me. I think we are seeing a redesign in progress — pretty cool 😎

Anyone else seeing a redesign, or has my browser gone crazy?

For my fellow Californians:

California regulator finds Blue Cross violations

California Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner said Monday an investigation has turned up more than 700 claims-handling violations by Anthem Blue Cross, California’s largest for-profit health insurer.

I love Common Dreams.

This is a terrific article, Cher. Thanks for posting.

As a Buddhist myself, I was really proud of Tiger for talking openly about his beliefs and not caving into the conformity thing. And I guess that’s about the only thing I was proud of as far as this story goes! 🙂

I’m a cycler, too, javaz. I can’t call myself a cyclist because it’s totally recreational. But I ride to and from work — 7 miles each way — when we turn the clocks back and it’s light enough in the evenings.

I guess I look at this as a left-right allegory because here we have this guy minding his own business, trying to get where he’s going, and these bullies come along and try to give him a hard time. This is how I see liberal/conservative dynamics. Maybe that’s unfair of me, but that’s how it always seems to be.

I know this story, BT, and I think it may be true.

But I also have to add that some people in communities of color prefer it this way. They feel they are less likely to face discrimination if their schools reflect their communities.

A left-wing/right-wing allegory for today:

Really put a downer on my day to read that….

He is actually the second largest shareholder in Fox. It’s something their viewers don’t seem to know or, in usual double standard style, don’t seem to care about.

No — I just appreciate these behind-the-scenes notes. And I think it’s interesting that Voinovich voted yes with a relatively modest incentive.

See if this works:

It’s not a scandal — just an FYI. I thought it was interesting.

What a vague and totally evasive, missed the point entirely, answer. But what else would we expect from Darrell Issa?

The right wing’s capacity for double standards never fails to amaze me. How do they get away with it?
