Every few weeks, whether by design because it gets damn difficult to write thoughtful commentary once a day or more, or by accident because it’s, well it’s damn difficult to write thoughtful commentary once a day or more and sometimes we repeat ourselves, someone in the Puma/Disenfranchised Dems/Under-the-Bus-Liberals camp writes a blog post about the [...]

What’s on everyone’s mind? Health care? Deflation? The fact that Al Franken did something very good for women in America? Excitement about the first woman winning the Nobel Prize in Economics? (Her main area of study is actually quite fascinating and acessible — it’s about how people use common resources (like fishing ponds and grazing [...]

Hanging On

in PUMAsphere, open thread

 
It’s not easy being a Puma this month. This is like Mile 9 in a marathon — we’ve come a LOOONG way but there is still so far to go; we’re not halfway there yet; and the possibility we might not make it to the finish line is very real.

Overnight Randomness

Cinie hates everything and everyone, but I like her a lot.
Which reminds me, I wish Persephone would get back home soon, but on the other hand I don’t want her vacation in Paradise to end.
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is a pretty damn good book, but I don’t think I’m going to buy the [...]

Nope, we’re not Republicans. The fact that we’re also not Democrats anymore is apparently too difficult for some to comprehend.

Good takes on Palin’s announcement HERE and HERE. See, BOIZ, you really CAN write about Sarah Palin, even if you dislike her politics, without using sexism or misgyny. Martin does a good job and Greta is always excellent. I think Greta had absolutely NOTHING to apologize for to that jackass Greg Jarrett on Fox News and [...]

Still feeling the GLOW from last night’s success? Well, if you’re one of many who are not satisfied with Letterman’s personal apology to Governor Palin and her family, there is a protest planned for tonight outside the CBS studios in NYC. I agree that Letterman’s apology, though obviously sincere, only goes part of the way [...]

First off, via Violet Sox, here’s Sarah Palin on contraception:
“I’m pro-contraception, and I think kids who may not hear about it at home should hear about it in other avenues. So I am not anti-contraception. But, yeah, abstinence is another alternative that should be discussed with kids. I don’t have a problem with that. That [...]
