So we’re finally almost there. Decision Time 2016. The lines have been clearly drawn. On the right we have Trump – the unhinged, egomaniacal, sexist, racist, pumped-up contractor-cum-reality-TV-host. Also on the other right… we have Hillary Clinton – heir apparent to the Establishment’s 30+ year reign, protector of the American Empire and faithful servant to the its corporate, […]
The corrupt political machine which controls our elections has done an amazing job this season.

It begins in kindergarten, when we are taught to Pledge Allegiance to the flag – well before we have any idea what the flag represents, or […]
I suppose it was inevitable… I’m talking of course about the passage of the bill allowing the Trans Pacific Partnership trade bill to be Fast Tracked through congress.

I’d like to take a moment to look at Hillary Clinton – the presumptive next President of the United States. Now calm down conservatives, I know you all have a million reasons why this woman will not – and should not – win the next election. But that’s not the point here. I’m not as concerned […]
