The Liberal Doomsayer
My blog deals primarily with national politics in the U.S. as well as, on occasion, local politics in Pennsylvania. From time to time, I may have something to say about sports and entertainment as well. I try to interpret information that shapes the news and provide context to current events. I am definitely left of center politically, but I believe no one knows everything.

Return Of The Knuckle Draggers
2007-08-11 00:06:24
I don’t have much to add to this Inquirer online article, except to say that Diane Gramley and her fellow fascists at the American Family Association should crawl back to western PA and keep their noses out of our business…Schools drop recognition monthsObjections to Gay and Lesbian History Month led the district to remove other tribute months as well.By Susan SnyderInquirer Staff WriterDogged by public controversy and "phone calls that bordered on terroristic threats," the Philadelphia School District has removed recognition of Gay and Lesbian History Month from its 2007-08 school calendar, and - in an effort to be fair - similar months, including African American, Hispanic Heritage, and Asian Pacific American.Other designations, such as the International Day of Disabled Persons, also are gone from the calendar mailed to about 200,000 parents and other affiliates, district officials said last night.The only days that get recognized now are the ones that mean a day off from school, ...

Where The Rubber Meets The Road (8/10/07)
2007-08-10 23:17:18
As reported in last Sunday's Philadelphia Inquirer, here is how Philadelphia-area members of Congress were recorded on major roll-call votes last week.HouseSoldiers' rest. The House passed, 229-194, and sent to the Senate a bill to set minimum periods between soldiers' tours in Iraq and their time at home. The bill would require at least as much time back home as at war.A yes vote was to pass HR 3159.Voting yes: Robert E. Andrews (D., N.J.), Robert A. Brady (D., Pa.), Michael N. Castle (R., Del.), Chaka Fattah (D., Pa.), Tim Holden (D., Pa.), Patrick Murphy (D., Pa.), Allyson Schwartz (D., Pa.) and Joe Sestak (D., Pa.).Voting no: Charles W. Dent (R., Pa.), Jim Gerlach (R., Pa.), Frank A. LoBiondo (R., N.J.), Joseph R. Pitts (R., Pa.), H. James Saxton (R., N.J.) and Christopher H. Smith (R., N.J.).To every Repug who opposed this (with the notable exception of Mike Castle), I dedicate this post from Digby, particularly this excerpt…I hear so much from the right about how they love t ...

Who's Their Inspiration, I Wonder?
2007-08-10 06:11:10
Gee, let me think; a children's book about a boy who doesn't want to read, huh?(Oh, right, it's based on "their experiences as teachers" - suuuure.)Well, if Laura and Jenna Bush want to write it based on what they know (or should know about our country's recent history, anyway), it could go something like this...Once upon a time, there was a little boy who was very incurious about the world. He lived a sheltered life of prosperity and only knew a few people like those in his own family. They all had similar beliefs and were equally incurious about the lives of people other than themselves.The boy's father had served our country in the military and government service for years, and the son served in a peacetime national guard position, though there are records missing that would probably answer questions about what exactly he did when he was supposed to be defending our country (oh, and he managed to avoid fighting in a war, like many other sons of privilege at that time).After tha ...

Not The Comic Relief I Had In Mind
2007-08-09 18:56:30
The New York Times reports today that 600 Washingtonians (not “Washington- ites” – reminds me of that episode of “Taxi” with Jim and the T.V.s…never mind) were asked who they would want to see immortalized in wax at Madame Tussauds from a list of area notables.So many people to choose from, as noted in they story; they could have picked Steroid Man also, since he just hit Number 757 to widen his lead over Hank Aaron last night.So who did they choose?None other than former mayor and prison inmate Marion “Bitch, Light Me Up” Barry.Actually, I think the survey should have been clarified for those polled. Apparently, they believed the figure of the person selected would be made not from wax, but crack cocaine.Maybe they don’t deserve the vote after all (snark). ...

Another Reason To Boot Him Out?
2007-08-09 18:33:36
It turns out that (according to Atrios here), President Clouded Vision was checked by a physician for symptoms of Lyme disease a year ago (apparently, he might have picked it up while he was bicycling in the Maryland woods – I mean, he might as well engage in physical activity since anything mental would probably be too challenging for him).Aside from the fact that, as Atrios says, we should have known about this long before now, Dubya should be monitored for this frequently. Lyme disease is not something that you can get rid of by applying an analgesic cream or regular doses of Robitussin or something like that. It can turn into a serious neurological disorder.All you have to do is read about the sad case of Fraserburg university professor Alasdair Crockett (here) to know what’s at stake. And if I wonder whether symptoms may have progressed affecting what precious little good judgment he actually has, I promise I’m being serious. ...

A Request Of My Brethren
2007-08-09 00:25:39
I have to admit that I saw this poll on The Daily Kos this morning and I was taken aback somewhat.I know we all here do what we can to communicate to people in a forum that, don’t forget, is maturing each day along with other means of promoting ideas, causes and points of view, but I think it’s a mistake for us to forget about trying to communicate to people who still read ink output on dead trees.I think we should embrace whatever opportunity we can to get people on board with us. And my guess is that there are people still reading the traditional corporate media who may or may not know of bloggers, the netroots, the progressive movement, etc. and could be truly enlightened if we took the time to reach out to them via some kind of a Letter to the Editor or a Guest Column of some type (one of the reasons why I think it’s so important to publicize David Sirota, among others).So please consider scribbling something along the lines of what we post about here and sending it off to a ...

Gathering The Political Roadkill
2007-08-08 21:49:00
Out of a truly perverse sense of curiosity, I visited the White House web site to find out how President Don’t Call It A Vacation (h/t HuffPo) spun the evisceration of FISA by the congressional Repugs and chicken dems (lower case intentional) a few days ago…I commend members of Congress who supported these important reforms, and also for acting before adjourning for recess. In particular, I want to thank Mitch McConnell and John Boehner for their strong leadership on this issue, and Senators Kit Bond and Dianne Feinstein for coming together in the Senate on an effective bipartisan solution. In the House of Representatives, Pete Hoekstra and Heather Wilson were instrumental in securing enactment of this vital piece of legislation before the August recess, and I thank them for their leadership.As far as I’m concerned, Dubya manages to do something here that is almost artful in its utter repugnance (almost). By congratulating Dianne Feinstein (the only Dem, of course), he draws atte ...

Following Patrick's Money
2007-08-08 20:47:00
In today’s Bucks County Courier Times, reporter Brian Scheid takes a look at the composition of the nearly $1.2 million in funding that Patrick Murphy has raised to date for the 2008 campaign (which, despite Mikey’s absence at the moment – no doubt trying to ratchet up whatever drama he can generate for his return on behalf of the knuckle-dragging faithful – is very much underway).Yes, it is symptomatic of the crassness of our politics that this is a legitimate issue. But until the vast majority of this country gets serious about campaign finance reform, this is the status quo.What Scheid found out (here) was that about $670,000 of the money came from individuals. Nearly $280,000 came from PA residents, meaning that slightly over half of the individual donations came from outside of PA, in a fairly diverse spread across the east coast and California (and in diverse amounts as well).The rest of the money came from political action committees, which included labor and defense int ...

Today's News of C.E.O. Abuse
2007-08-08 17:14:00
(A non-political post coming up here having a lot to do with Philadelphia – by the way, posting will be sporadic for the rest of the week after today.)A family member communicated to me that the Philadelphia Inquirer practiced actual journalism in its “Magazine” section today (having to do with People/Lifestyle/This Week’s Beautiful Celebrity In Trouble stuff), and what is even more unbelievable is that the person responsible was Karen Heller, who, to my mind, is one of the worst features writers who has ever lived.I am quite sure there will be a response to her column today, but she states that Bill Marrazzo, the CEO of WHYY, Philadelphia’s public radio and television station, earned $430,786 in salary and an additional $56,250 in benefits during fiscal year 2006 (as Heller observed, pulling in a “for-profit” kind of salary for a non-profit operation).(Her column is actually a follow-up to the criticism by Arlen Specter of Matt A. Peskin, who makes $255,000 in salary and ...

A Down-Home Whacking
2007-08-08 00:34:00
I guess there are a whole bunch of newspaper columnists in remotely rural areas of this country aspiring to dispense with sage advice disguised as commentary on current events that they hope will be useful (I probably just explained the media existence of J.D. Mullane, among others).This admittedly obvious observation occurred to me when I read this post by Brad Warthen, editorial page editor of TheState.com, South Carolina’s Home Page (don’t know anything else about it except what’s on the masthead). Warthen, though, tries to imagine himself as a “mover and shaker” of opinion, though (like Mullane also, and – truth be told – your humble narrator to a certain degree, though I at least aspire to provide substance).And Warthen has it in for John Edwards. You see, he thinks Edwards is a big phony.Hey, I’ll admit that no politician is perfect, but let’s look at the “evidence,” OK?His face was impassive, slack, bored: Another crowd, another show.

Holding The Betrayers Accountable
2007-08-07 22:32:00
As I continue to figure out just how in the hell I’m going to support a political party that cowers and capitulates at every turn to our criminal ruling regime, I happened to come across this editorial in the New York Times today which should be required reading for every single member of the Democratic Party (regarding the shameless sellout by Congress on FISA, aided and abetted by a handful of “Democrats” including Sideshow Bob Casey).Yes, I’m still angry. I’m going to be angry for a little while.And with this in mind, I should let you know that I came across the following letter in the New York Times recently from Marc Dunkelman, whose title is “Director of the Ideas Primary Democratic Leadership Council” (?) written in response to a column by Noam Scheiber called “The Centrists Didn’t Hold”…Mr. Scheiber’s contention that the Democratic Leadership Council believes that the “teachers unions endanger the republic” must have come as a surprise to the teacher ...

Honoring Our Military
2007-08-07 20:26:00
The following letter appeared in the Bucks County Courier Times on Sunday (I'm not familiar with the original letter Ms. Fulton is referring to - so many of its type to choose from)…Your recent "balanced" report is precisely why so many Americans mistrust the mass media. Next time you report on a rally against governmental injustices and illegal wars, end the article with a quote from the U.S. Constitution, not from some blindly obedient militarist!Every active duty military person, including the quoted Marine, took an oath to preserve and protect the Constitution. He has a right to express his opinion - and I would sacrifice my life to ensure that both he and I retain that right. But his opinion is factually wrong on all counts.Look up the language on impeachment in the Constitution. Impeachment is mandatory for the kinds of high crimes and misdemeanors committed over and over with utter arrogance and claims of "privilege" by draft dodgers Cheney and Bush.Article II, Section 4 read ...

More Plame Blame
2007-08-07 18:52:00
By the way, how many other people besides me noticed the fact that Valerie Plame got hosed again recently?This story notes the following…A federal court last week accepted a Central Intelligence Agency argument that the date on which former covert officer Valerie Plame Wilson's employment at the CIA began should remain classified even though it is irrevocably in the public domain.The date in question appeared in a seemingly unclassified letter sent by CIA to Ms. Wilson and published in the Congressional Record. But when she sought to include the information in the manuscript of her forthcoming memoir, the CIA objected that it is still classified. Now the Court has agreed."To be sure, the public may draw whatever conclusions it might from the fact that the information at issue was sent on CIA letterhead by the Chief of Retirement and Insurance Services," wrote Judge Barbara S. Jones in an August 1 ruling. "However, nothing in the law or its policy requires the CIA to officially ackno ...

Lending A Hand To "The Man"
2007-08-07 17:36:00
This is one “echo chamber” post that I am more than happy to publish.David Sirota notifies us here that he was asked to write a column for Creators Syndicate, to, in essence, fill the shoes of Molly Ivins; I’m sure David and anyone else would admit that's impossible, but all we can do is try our best.He also is asking that we lend a hand on behalf of his column and ask newspaper editors to include his well-written and highly detailed observations amidst the ever-growing volume of right-wing bile that they inflict on us at every opportunity. I will attempt to communicate this to Chris Satullo of the Philadelphia Inquirer shortly; I don’t know who has replaced him as editorial page editor, but I’m sure it isn’t asking too much for him to publicize David’s existence. I will also contact Guy Petroziello at the Bucks County Courier Times and make a similar request.(Oh, and I should point out that I may not have much success with the Inquirer since we cancelled our subscriptio ...

I forgave you for taking a total pass on that so-called “Justice Sunday” farce that took place in Philadelphia featuring Senator Man-On-Dog during the campaign last year (while your primary opponent Chuck Pennacchio rightly opposed it in person).I looked the other way (tried to, anyway) when you resurrected one of the all-time “zombie lies that never die” about your father being denied the opportunity to speak at the 1992 Democratic Convention because he opposed abortion (he opposed Bill Clinton for the nomination, so he wasn’t given a chance to speak from the podium; that’s as old a tradition as politics itself).I cringed over your opposition to federal funding of embryonic stem cell research because a lot of that scientific study has now moved offshore along with the jobs that go with it, though I made an attempt to understand how you could seriously think that such funding would actually lead to an increase in abortions.I seethed while you refused to support the Reid-Fei ...

Uh, AP?

I have a question for reporter Amy Lorentzen based on this story; tell me where John Edwards criticizes former president Bill Clinton by name (or even Sen. Hillary Clinton).I mean, that should be the case, right? That is in your headline, after all.You can’t do it, can you? And especially because Edwards states in your story that this is not about any one politician in particular.No, it’s more important for you to create some imaginary dustup between Edwards and the Clintons than it is to analyze or pay more attention to what it is that Edwards is saying.He’s talking about how both of our major political parties (but especially the Repugs) are beholden to corporate interests that continually shut us out of any benefits from this supposedly glorious global economy. I should note, though, that Bill Clinton has said in the past that he tried to ensure worker safeguards in NAFTA, but they were stripped out by congressional Republicans (and is that really so far-fetched of a possibili ...

Broder Piles On
2007-08-06 18:20:00
Believe me when I tell you that I am in absolutely no mood to defend the 110th Congress at this moment, but I am compelled to do so because of this particularly awful column by David Broder that appeared in the Washington Post and the Bucks County Courier Times yesterday.The distinguishing characteristic of this Congress was on vivid display the other day when the House debated a bill to expand the federal program that provides health insurance for children of the working poor.Even when it is performing a useful service, this Congress manages to look ugly and mean-spirited. So much blood has been spilled, so much bile stockpiled on Capitol Hill, that no good deed goes untarnished.How artful of Broder in ultimate “concern troll” mode to heap blame like this anonymously, attacking the Democrats through implication since they’re running the show. And Congress was not ugly and mean-spirited towards Clinton while his administration produced 22 million new non-farm sector jobs and deli ...

Pot, Meet Kettle, Presidential Candidates Version
2007-08-05 05:00:00
Via Atrios, Juan Cole chides Barack Obama for talking about using nukes in Pakistan, reversing his original position, and Hillary Clinton for saying that "all options should remain on the table" (would that Nancy Pelosi felt that way about Dubya and impeachment).I am not pro-nuclear war, but actually, I think Clinton's phrasing is the way to go here. Since she is a grownup, unlike anyone in our current presidential "leadership," she would understand that that language is bland enough to virtually rule out the possibility of a pre-emptive strike with nukes on our part.And I don't feel that Obama committed any particular kind of a faux pas with his reversal into not ruling anything out, staged Pakistani outrage aside (giving up bin Laden would put an end to it, bin Laden's "protected" status notwithstanding). Unlike Cole, I don't think Obama made a "serious error." If this ends up as an "issue" somehow, it will be because our corporate media made it so to reinforce some kind of "craz ...

Chertoff No "Top Banana" Here
2007-08-03 21:16:00
(I know this is disturbing, even by my lax standards – sorry…).Via McClatchy, I have an update to this post from March that told of how Jeffrey Taylor, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, filed charges against Chiquita Brands after the company admitted paying protection money to a Colombian paramilitary group that happened to be on our government’s terrorist organization watch list. The Department of Justice is now conducting a criminal probe into the matter.As noted here (from yesterday - registration may be required)…(Chiquita board member) Roderick M. Hills, who had sought the meeting with former law firm colleague Michael Chertoff, explained that … he knew that such payments were illegal, according to sources and court records, but said that he needed Chertoff's advice.Chiquita, Hills said, would have to pull out of the country if it could not continue to pay the violent right-wing group to secure its Colombian banana plantations. Chertoff, then assistant att ...

Broken English
2007-08-03 19:26:00
I’m trying to play catch-up a bit on the story that broke earlier this week of Repug U.S. House Reps. Phil English (Erie) and John Peterson (Pleasantville, Venango County) doing their best to fight the proposed tolls along Interstate 80 in Pennsylvania. The purpose of the tolls, backed by Gov. Ed Rendell, would be to fund bridge and highway improvements as well as mass transit.(By the way, as noted here, I-80 was one of the roadways impacted by last February’s severe snow and ice storm, along with I-81 and primarily I-78. Is it too much of a stretch to imagine that money could be used to make those highways easier to access or exit in the event of another weather emergency of that type?).The stupidity of this exercise by English and Peterson is matched only by the horrifically bad timing of their antics; the recent bridge tragedy in Minnesota (pictured) only underscores the importance of trying to repair the crumbling infrastructure in this country, particularly our highways.Anyway ...

Gosh, it seems like those pesky little voting troubles for little Annie Coulter just refuse to go away, don’t they? As noted here...(The Palm Beach Post's Jose) Lambiet wrote that the sheriff's office "punted a voting fraud probe in April" but "the Florida Elections Commission now is investigating" the February 2006 incident in which Coulter -- who's also an author and lawyer -- allegedly cast her ballot in the wrong precinct in a Palm Beach election after registering with an address that wasn't hers."The Coulter voting saga is now known as FEC Case No. 07-211," Lambiet continued. "The investigator assigned, Tallahassee's Margie Wade, wouldn't confirm she caught the case; FEC complaints are supposed to be confidential. Still, [I'm] told Coulter already has been notified she's under investigation.…'I actually saw her vote at St. Edward's (Church), and she looked in a hurry,' [Campaign consultant] Richard Giorgio, whose stable of candidates includes mostly Democrats, said ...

As you can see from the headline in the photo, it looks as if Our Man Arlen Specter is calling definitively for the ouster of Abu Gonzales as Attorney General at long last.The problem is that, when you read the story from the link, you find out that that bears not the slightest resemblance to what Specter actually said.This excerpt tells you what you need to know…Democrats, who control Congress, would allow the messages from foreign targets to be intercepted, but only after a review by the special FISA court to make sure the surveillance does not focus on communications that might be sent to and from Americans.They reject the Bush administration's proposal to give Gonzales speedy authority to decide if the surveillance properly targets people overseas _ and not in the United States.In a counteroffer, the White House proposed that Gonzales share that power with the national intelligence director, Mike McConnell. That proposal, however, did not appease Democrats. They want court revie ...
