a slight correction on the earlier post.

Posted on July 1, 2017 by Brother Jonah

OK so I lost a neat little correction. So here I go rebuilding it. The hot dog thing was a 100th anniversary of the hot dog maker and their annual eating contest. Still worthless, stupid… still gluttony in the name … Continue reading →

American voters want to make America great again. So let’s.

Posted on November 12, 2016 by Eric Verlo

Yes America was never great for Native Americans, or slaves, or those without property. Indeed capitalism is ony great for those with capital. But I think the pride behind American Exceptionalism comes from more than nostalgia about 1950s prosperity as … Continue reading →

Ray Charles died the same day as Reagan

Posted on October 16, 2016 by Brother Jonah

Damn, I sure do miss Ray Charles. Some people say that Black folk protecting their families and communities is equivalent to the Klan. Which is bullshit. Let me quantify that. 93.7 cubic kilometers of bullshit. One group that fought against … Continue reading →

Nother Kase of Killer Kops

Posted on August 22, 2016 by Brother Jonah

Yeah, I do use the KKK theme when discussing Kops. They taught it to me. 5 on one, while I was helpless. Many times. “to teach me a lesson”. I learned the real lesson early. Not the one they wanted … Continue reading →

Ask the candidates: who, as president, vows to jail Obama, Clinton and Bush?

Posted on April 11, 2016 by Eric Verlo

If Americans really want to differentiate which presidential candidate represents change, a good question would be, which will prosecute America’s celebrity war criminals? Who, among them, will jail past leaders guilty of crimes against humanity? Obama 2008 didn’t do it. … Continue reading →

Posted on January 11, 2015 by Eric Verlo
