clik on chart for full-size………

Here’s the teaser quote clik on it for the full post:

When discussing real income growth one of the points often made by
conservatives and libertarians is that the average data on real income
is irrelevantly because it does not measure the same people over time.
There is some validity to this point….’

Yep, about now is when I propose that Webster’s redefine ‘conservative’
as: ‘having or pertaining to being brain-dead, no perceivable brain wave activity.’


Very Good Brunch Discussion Today!

March 23, 2008

Turnout was modest. Around six or so.

Where the hell were you?

Topics ran from our upcoming progressive author series, if you know of a good book by a real progressive coming out this year email me and we’ll take a vote on inviting same to talk with us, to sustainable energy, Peak Oil, Liquid Fuels…the housing crisis, consensus is that you and I will pay….education, the kids are getting shortchanged. Wilma Chan is coming soon to talk with us. The corruption in Congress and how important cleaning that out is to the Progressive Agenda. The Federal Reserve….Brittany, no not really…..slavery, then and now…. And as always…..

Obama vs. Clinton.

Did you know that the Clinton’s are Racists? No?

Hell neither did I.

We kept it cool and had a pretty good discussion about how this divisive campaign was not a good thing for us. One thing that was asserted, I’ve been hearing this for over a year, was that The Magic Man, Obama will help the Democratic Party win a whole bunch of down ticket races for the party and that his makes him the more desirable candidate. Well, I’ve never seen any evidence of this that was convincing but today proves that old saw, ‘Every cloud has a silver lining’. Having been banned by Chris ‘BoneHead’ Bowers from his site OpenLeft, I was not being sufficiently respectful to him and his sycophants, I’ve been over at Corrente a lot lately. And saints preserve us I found this:

Many Obama voters ignored other Texas primary races

Yep, Chris that line of b.s. you been pushin’

It’s b.s. pal.
