14. I wonder how Shepard Fairey feels about the President today?
He did make a boat-load of money, so who knows?

5. Yeah.
I had a feeling that was going to turn out to be prophetic rather than an exaggeration.

7. He doesn't have to change parties...

There is only one party.

I read about it here:

Time to turn it into a book, auto...

16. Now that's a thought

Time for action. This should make the point while I'm hard at work...

8. After Today

9. Here is genuine SATIRE:
In Latest Compromise with GOP, Obama Agrees He is a Muslim
Place of Birth ‘Negotiable,’ President Says

http://www.borowitzreport.com/

The other is lame and tiresome, and all to typical of so many posts here lately. (sigh!)

11. My friend, my best hope is that
this is about sharpening the national debate, where the lines between the plutocrats and the teabaggers are stressed so that their artificial, inherently clumpy coalition is rent asunder.

12. I think they're done after about the first day of the new Congress
When the "less regulation, less taxation" assault begins, all but the Armey bots will know they've been had. Brown has to get some breaks and make the right moves. He's the only progressive out there in charge of anything.

15. And he knows.
After a life of public service, his focus is sharper than ever. I think he's poised to fulfill some of the California dreaming that hasn't yet reached fruition.

18. Not that much, although it is important to note this
The powers behind the throne are the enduring affliction.
