Richardson’s endorsement of Obama (and less importantly, my own.)

As some of you know, I was the director of social networking programs for Bill Richardson for President and that Gov. Richardson was my choice to best lead the country among a field of very qualified candidates, despite the fact that his candidacy didn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell. Nonetheless we owe fact that [...]

A song to help find Vicki Iseman (remember her? McCain’s maybe-onetime-mistress?)

It has been exactly one month since the New York Times broke the John McCain/Vicki Iseman scandal, and since then the press has gone after Iseman with all the veracity and acumen of a dead hippo. What gives?
Don’t get me wrong – I think that if John McCain had an inappropriate relationship with a lobbyist [...]

Kiss The Ring (a song for John McCain’s magically disappearing principles)

Enjoy Kiss the Ring, [...]

New song – Mathematics of the Dead

The idea of that last blog is fleshed out in rock song!
This week’s song is about the mathematical problem with the war leading up to the election: the fewer casualties we take in the months before the election (and of course I’m all about fewer casualties), then the more likely it is that John “100 [...]

More funny math from CNN

“1 in 8 casualties from Iraq have been taken by residents of Texas and Ohio”.
US Population: 303,477,000Texas Population: 20,851,820Ohio Population: 11,353,140
This means that 1 in 9.4 people in America live in Texas or Ohio… and while I’m always glad to see the news media actually admitting that the war matters to people who actually can [...]

Death Math

1. It makes me sad that the casualty count in Iraq and the likelihood of a Democrat winning the White House are correlated and proportional, and that every day that an American soldier doesn’t die in Iraq makes a McCain victory more likely, which means more deaths for a longer period of time and pro-life [...]
