Rage Against the Machine Rages the streets of Denver

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
The DNC is in Denver. So are protesters. Rage Against the Machine played a free show at the Denver Coliseum this afternoon, and then led a march right past my work. So I went outside to watch. About 75 […]

An Inconvenient Truth: The DNC is coming

Denver Direct posts a press release from Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper about the upcoming Democratic Convention. Hickenlooper says there won’t be much of a problem with traffic and the added 50,000 people who will be in attendance this coming August. I’d like to go to a protest to check it out, even if I don’t […]

Sinbad enters the political fray

That’s something I never thought I’d write. But Denver native Sinbad has conflicting reports about his trip to Bosnia with Hillary Clinton in 1996. Yes, ladies and gentleman, Sinbad. A B or C-list celeb has the authority to smash a campaign into pieces.

Going Viral (in an STD sort of a way)

Undoubtedly, you know about how the Governor of New York fucked a prostitute like 10 times and it cost him his job. The woman who whored herself out to the Guvn’r, it turns out, has a MySpace profile! OK, it’s not really that surprising. I just looked again, and it was taken down so I […]

Is America more sexist or more racist?

I should have posted my thoughts on this subject a while back, because I’ve been thinking about it for a while. When deciding on a Democratic nominee before the Colorado Caucuses, I decided that it’s important to endorse a candidate that has the best chance of becoming President. I feel that Obama understands the younger […]

Crying probably won’t get you any brownie points, but thanks for trying

Hillary Clinton showed some emotion on the campaign trail today. My guess is that she was crying because her hopes of getting the nomination are slipping away. Crying is also my last resort. Let’s say that I’m pretty much already getting dumped by someone (as Hillary is getting dumped by Iowans and the New Hampsters), […]

Al Gore, Venture Capitalist

Lots of people are thinking that Al Gore will run for President as a late entry into the 2008 race. CNN has an interesting article about Gore’s new job as a Venture Capitalist, specializing in alternative and green energy companies. I think that Gore seems right at home in this new job, and he’s got […]

Master Debaters?

Local politician Tom Tancredo is an idiot. Yes, I watched the Republican Debate on CNN. He just argued that it sucks to be on the phone with an automated system and you have to push 1 for English. Man, that sucks.

Worst. Candidate. Ever.

Well, Tom Tancredo isn’t a David Duke, but that doesn’t mean that he’s not still a prick. A Colorado Representative in Washington, Tommy “I Hate Immigrants” Tancredo was allowed to take part in the first GOP debate. Time.com gave him a D-*. And I’m happy about it. But maybe he could become the frontrunner and […]
