I've Got No Love for Seven Out of 10 Black Voters in Californianew
Yes, Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2008, was a day when you truly felt proud to be an American. But then, on Nov. 5, I read something that changed all that. I read that California's black voters favored Proposition 8 by a margin of 70 percent to 30 percent, which means seven out of 10 black voters voted against gay marriage.

Americans Aren't the Only People Who are Due Due Processnew
I really hadn't planned on writing about this decision. It seems so utterly obvious why Guantanamo Bay detainees deserve due process; I just figured it would be argued, re-argued and over-argued a million times in the opinionsphere before I could ever publish a single word about it. Instead, I watched and listened as the right-wing blubbermongers blubbered on about how the court's decision puts the rights of foreign terrorists above the safety of Americans.

Spreading Democracy?new
This shit should be obvious to everybody: Going to war to spread democracy? Talk about missing the point. The only acceptable way to spread the kind of democracy that's worth spreading is to be the best damn example of it we can be. Everything else is hypocrisy.
