Thom Hartmann on the ‘Party of No’ (video)
For nine minutes progressive broadcaster Thom Hartmann sums up the dynamics of the recent tragedy in Tucson and gives an historic overview of the conservative ‘Party of No’ beginning with President Obama’s uplifting message about our nation and that of Sarah Palin and her ilk.The Party of No has quite a laundry list of obstructionism to its credit (debit) and I shudder to think what this nation
SOTU Address Jan 25, 2011: Sun Aquarius-Moon Libra
It seems a bit early to locate the precise hour of President Obama’s State of the Union Address to a joint session of Congress scheduled for the evening of January 25, 2011 or perhaps the time isn’t yet settled, but an early peek at two possible horoscopes for 8:00 pm est and 9:00 pm est on that evening in Washington DC shows Sun in Aquarius with a 29th-degree Moon in Libra in both charts.Moon
Palin post garners interesting readers’ comments
That was a healing Tucson Memorial Service last evening and great to hear that Rep. Gabrielle Gifford has opened her eyes for the first time and reached for her husband’s hand. What a brave lady! And President Obama gave a moving performance with his oratorical skills shining and some good points made such as Americans’ need to "expand our moral imaginations" and with tinges of Scriptural comfort
Rhetoric targets Palin w Mars to her natal Moon
Is Sarah Palin the Victim?Sarah Palin on Wednesday leveled a charge of "blood libel" against those who’ve blamed the January 8, 2011 tragedy in Tucson on her violent rhetoric against her party’s Democratic opponents.Now I prefer not to blog much about Palin’s natal chart but it may be time for SO’W to record a current look at transits to the former Alaska governor’s natal placements. As you know,
Capricorn season 2011? Pass the Twinkies! And explain the dead birds
Today I’ve pretty much been hibernating and reading, partly due to the snow and ice still on the lawn and bitter cold in the forecast, partly from recent shocking events which my natal Moon in Pisces often absorbs a little too deeply. Regular breaks from Politics are needed to maintain (or attain?) emotional health and sanity, as most people agree.Yet I’ve not been wholly inactive and have spent
Moment of Silence: Moon = AP at Ic of US natal chart
Thinking of Tucson as Left Blames Right, Right Blames LeftOn C-SPAN just now, neoconner Bill Kristol just asked if Palin isn’t responsible for the violence in Tucson on Saturday (better her blamed than him, I guess.) Now he’s defending George Bush and the ‘attacks’ on Bush while he was president for "consciously" lying and getting people killed (in his wars – his, Cheney’s, and Kristol’s.) As if
Horror in Tucson, plus the Spring EQ 2011 Horoscope
Though we’re in the Winter Solstice 2010 season now with its rare Lunar Eclipse (both at crisis or critical degrees which presaged Saturday’s Horror in Tucson), recent events in the political realm such as the time and money wasting 112th Congress opening on January 5, 2011, the mystery of thousands of dead birds and other animals, Phosgene and the possibly related murder of bio-weapons expert
112th Congress = "Swords" vs "Torches"?
In his weekly radio address today President Obama has called for Republicans to stop their symbolic battles, battles which seem to this blogger to be meant in part as a salve to the Tea Partisans watching GOPers closely for backtracking on their promises to do things differently than Congress’ previous sorriness.And the millions of dollars that GOP ‘symbolism’ has cost the US taxpayer during only
Matt Taibbi on corporate shill John Boehner
Whether you expect major improvements under the House leadership of John Boehner or not, you don’t want to miss Matt Taibbi’s current piece in Rolling Stone, The Crying Shame of John Boehner!At least someone in America still engages in what was once called ‘journalism’.And Mr. Boehner’s oft-remarked-upon tendency to well up with tears? Sentimental, self-pitying perhaps, with a possible Moon/
