Afraid No More

A little more politics and comment on the national scene. Bear with me, and I’ll go off to take some more great New Mexico photos for you. But first, I need to get this off my chest:
The Democratic health care bill as written by the Senate is an abomination and will not stand. They say [...]

All right, I’m in this. Let there be opinions. At the risk of turning away those of you jonesing for a fresh New Mexico fix (oh, I got more for ya), I’m going to say a few more words about the Great Insurance Industry Bailout Act of 2009 and why the mandate stinks so [...]

“USA! USA!” (Having So Little)

You may have noticed a lot of tweets about the Great Health Care Robbery in the “TaosJohn Feed” over in the sidebar. I’m not going to take up any of your time here with arguments or exposition, but I did find this fascinating list published in an article at Huffington Post by Evan Handler, in [...]

As the Head is Bent

I suppose you think this is funny. But look closely, if you dare!
Now I know why my glasses always seem to be tilted: one of my eyes is lower than the other, yow! I just took three photos and they all look like this. Pretty horrible, isn’t it? (No, no, no, the EYES, dammit, [...]

Insult City

I seem to be doing remarkably well this morning, with people yelling at me from several blogs at once.
It all started with a silly post at AmericaBlog where the author felt compelled to insult all Grateful Dead fans, and I insulted him back. Then I insulted the blog publisher as well, who promptly insulted [...]

Could it be any more bizarre? What did we do to deserve this?? Oh yeah, right…
Be that as it may, I say keep your eyes on McCain. Whenever I see a video of the guy, I can’t believe how warped he is from the pressure of all the lying. He needs a new career as [...]

What a Show

Too dark, pre-occupied, self-critical, and cranky to write much this week. That, and watching McCain disintegrate against the backdrop of the Great Unwinding is so engrossing and entertaining, who has time for anything else?
This is all just amazing. There IS a God, as the saying goes, and she’s winding up for the big pitch. What [...]

A Fine Day in America

What’s not to like?
First off, not everyone is stupid! In fact, most of us aren’t, and this morning it’s bringing a smile to my face. Not worried about the economy, either. Our way of life is unsustainable: if things are falling apart, that’s why, and they need to fall apart. So let’s run this by [...]
