| You Are 68% Democrat |
![]() You have a good deal of donkey running through your blood, and you’re proud to be liberal. You don’t fit every Democrat stereotype, but you definitely belong in the Democrat party. |
| You Are 12% Republican |
![]() If you have anything in common with the Republican party, it’s by sheer chance. You’re a staunch liberal, and nothing is going to change that! |
Bush’s antics during his trip to the Middle East has sickened and infuriated me for many reasons, but I hit a new level of revulsion after I read Bob Cesca’s blog entry in the Huff tonight.
In other news, its 1:30am, and I want a burrito.
‘The candidate says he wants to unite the country. But in a 1998 book, Huckabee was a fierce culture warrior, equating environmentalism with pornography, homosexuality with necrophilia, and nonbelievers with evildoers.’
Mike Huckabee: Playing Both Sides of the Pulpit by David Corn, Mother Jones’ Washington bureau chief.
Am I the only one that thinks his presidency would be the harbinger of the End of Days? Even moreso than this current bullshit administration?
Richard Honaker, President Bush’s latest radical nominee to the federal bench, is far outside the US mainstream when it comes to reproductive rights and freedoms. He’s devoted a good chunk of his career to fighting to deny women access to safe, legal reproductive-health services. He tried and failed to pass a state law banning abortion in Wyoming while serving in the Wyoming House of Reps–three times! He’s publicly stated that abortion is “wrong, and no one should have the right to do what is wrong.” No stare decisis for him–and certainly no open mind either.
Honaker seems much more activist than jurist given his public dismissals of the decisions of US District Court judges as unimportant and forgettable, an extremely troubling position, especially when held by a man on the south side of sixty nominated for a lifetime appointment to the District Court.

People often talk as if there was an opposition between what is beautiful and what is useful. There is no opposition to beauty except ugliness: all things are either beautiful or ugly, and utility will be always on the side of the beautiful thing, because beautiful decoration is always an expression of the use you put a thing to and the value placed on it.
~ Oscar Wilde
