We are all consumers. It could be argued that we can more readily recognize major corporate brand symbols, such as Nike’s Swoosh, McDonald’s Arch and Apple’s…well, apple than we can recognize the current president, George Washington, how many Senators there are, or just about any other benchmark of Americanness. We are fast becoming less American [...]

Welp, as predicted, it’s Barack ‘Osama’ Obama vs. John ‘Survived-the-Civil-War’ McCain fighting for the title of El Presidente of the once-great US and A.
Predictions?
This pundit-in-training is calling this one for Obama, and here’s why:
The average voters, aka ‘Joe and Suzy Six-Pack’ are heavily influenced by the media to determine which candidate he/she would like to [...]

Despite what Hillary says, I’m moving on. We now have both of the nominees for the general election (and don’t forget Bob Barr, Libertarian! Ooo, and Ron Paul…something.) and it’s time to start making a decision.
So, who’s it going to be, America? The guy on the left or the guy on the right? It’s not [...]

I am hoping against hope that today will bring an end to the Never-ending Democratic Primary That Technically Ended Two Months Ago But SHHHHH Nobody Tell That To Hillary Clinton Because She’ll Get Super Pissed. I’m hoping for a definitive ending, but then again, I’m not stupid enough to actually believe it’ll happen, being that [...]

I am intimately familiar with the Angry White Man(1), and I have been inspired by Gary Hubbell to lend a voice to this forgotten and silenced voting bloc(2). The Angry White Man is, as Gary so truthily puts it, “almost in fear of losing [his] constitutional rights through political correctness”.
This election, we have the historic [...]

Man, what an exciting weekend! I mean, it had everything- pageantry, excitement, suspense and even the requisite cathartic release. Wow. I’m still trying hard to recover.
Of course, I’m talking about the lead-up to what politicos call “Super Tuesday” and what New Orleanians call Mardi Gras, which is French for “let’s get shit-faced and throw colorful [...]

As the Presidential race narrows, it’s starting to look like it will be Obama v McCain in November. Sounds great, right? The better candidate from each party duking it out for ownership of the once great nation we call U.S. and A… Not so fast!

What if the McCain ticket reads ‘McCain/Giuliani - 911 Foreva’?
and not [...]

I’m not going to pretend that I’m about to give you some in-depth political observations that you couldn’t find over at Salon.com or the New York Times or The Daily Kos or The National Review. I’m most certainly not smart enough to crunch all of the numbers and I’m not enough of a seer to [...]
