A None Too Subtle Shift
[ by Michael T] [Rantings & Ravings] October 02, 2007Readers of this website may have noticed a none too subtle shift in what we’ve written about in the past year. As we have watched in horror at the ineffectiveness of Democrats to both get out their message and effectively prove countermeasure to the Bush Administration, we have come to the conclusion that our government has gone past incompetence straight to criminal negligence. As such, OutrageNation has begun to take a new direction, one where we are less than sympathetic to hapless Democrats even though at least 2 of us are registered in that party.

OK, NOW can we talk about partition?
[ by James Linkin] [Rantings & Ravings] June 06, 2007Finally, there seems to be some broad recognition that partition in Iraq is inevitable. But General Petraeus is still pursuing counterinsurgency. How many more will die before our policy aligns with reality?

A Simple Solution to the Tyranny of Spam
[ by Michael T] [Rantings & Ravings] December 07, 2006I remember when spamming was a big topic of discussion. The government even weighed in, in its patently useless way. These days we don’t hear anything about how to solve it. Meanwhile, we slog through piles of it every day. So I have decided to reignite the debate. Simply put, we need the death penalty for spammers.

Dinosaur Ready for Extinction [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]

The Grand Insult Party [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
September 03, 2008So I watched Sarah Palin’s speech and I came away unimpressed. She hit the notes but they seemed rote to me. However, I did feel extremely insulted for myself and for the Democratic Party.

August 25, 2008The Beijing Olympics are over and potential protests never occurred. So were the games a success? If you’re China, absolutely. If you’re the free world, not so much.

Media Narratives [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
August 22, 2008So this is what it comes down to - Barack Obama announcing his VP pick at some point today. On a Friday in August. Here’s why I think it’s a boneheaded idea.

Topped Off [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
August 04, 2008Well, we’ve heard rumblings and now it’s confirmed - the US government can seize your laptop without probable cause when you enter the US and hold it for a long time. And you can’t do bupkus about it.

Rangel Wrangles Out of Censure [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
August 01, 2008So Charlie Rangel had four rent-stabilized apartments in one building in New York City - a city where most people struggle to pay their rent. Was that a cause for censorship? I certainly think so but the Democrats punted on criticizing one of their own.

A Dose of Reality [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
July 28, 2008Is it really too much to ask for that our presidential contenders start dealing with fiscal realities? After all, the AP just reported that next years budget deficit is projected to be $482 billion. That would be a new record.

China: Terrorist State? Depends on Your State of MInd [ by James Linkin] [News You Can Abuse]
July 27, 2008I’m in one of those moods today. I’m reading an article about a group of Muslim separatists from western China (or “East Turkestan” as the separatists want it to be known) who are promising to attack the Olympic Games and pleading for everyone, especially Muslims, to boycott the affair. The more I read this article, the more I worry. But not about any fucking terrorists.

Future Liar-in-Chief McCain and his BS Express [News You Can Abuse]
July 26, 2008The fear that Republican Presidential candidate will be soundly defeated by Obama in November has generated a massive barrage of outright lies and some very smelly BS. Some of the lies and BS come from the usual disreputable sources like Right Wing talk radio hosts, Republican bloggers, Ann Coulter clones and certain Fox News commentators. These are to be expected.

Remember the Latinos? [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
July 24, 2008The GOP has been losing Latinos for years. It was thought that John McCain would have a better chance of staunching that loss due to his formerly moderate immigration stance. As it turns out, that is not the case at all.

Two Faced Express [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]

Palin Express Derailed [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
July 22, 2008The GOP has long been dominated by old white men so it was interesting when the future of the party suddently seemed to be centered on two dynamic newcomers - Gov Sarah Palin of Alaska and Gov Bobby Jindal of Louisiana. Unfortuntely for the GOP, the shine has come off the Palin wagon this week. That’s the last thing the party needs.

Brother, Can You Spare a Buck? [ by Michael T] [News You Can Abuse]
July 03, 2008Yesterday our demented commander in chief again proclaimed his belief in a strong dollar. Unfortunately for Americans, this isn’t the first time we’ve heard this line from Mr. Bush. As usual, it adds up to a load of bunk.
