The Crucible

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

I’ve criticized Andrew Sullivan’s commentary before; on issues of sexuality, he’s one of the best out there.

This is What is Happening

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

The republicans are going to throw a temper tantrum (again) after the election if things don’t go enough in their favor. They are going to shout about Acorns and Voter Fraud. I know this for sure because John McCain brought it up in the last debate with Obama. He said the democrats were going to [...]

Taking Healthcare Seriously

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

I’ve been pretty open that I think the US should adopt a single payer plan. I’d probably run it at the state level (similar to Canada’s system which is administered at the Provincial level), but I think at some point the US will adopt a single payer system that pays for health care while [...]
