Will Palin prez run 2012 bring Obama’s 2nd term?
Woot! As my friend American Patriot notes, if Sarah Palin runs for president in 2012, a second Obama term may be guaranteed.Me? Not as certain because a lot can happen between now and 2012/13 including Palin’s loss (or increase) of political influence. And even with Moon 1Gem26 (we-the-people) in 1st house with Jupiter 6Gem27 Rx, the Inauguration Horoscope of January 21, 2013 isn’t telling much
Obama speaks as 20Cap13 rises 11.3.10
President Obama is scheduled to speak today at 1:00 pm edt from the White House concerning yesterday’s midterm ‘rebuke’ of his presidency, policies, and legislation. In the US, the continued sorry job market (partially encouraged by the GOP-leaning Chamber of Commerce – this isn’t rocket science, folks) has soured many of the people who voted Obama in 2008 and his and his wife’s rhetorical
Got Obama Disappointment? US Neptune = Obama’s Mars
Writing in The Independent, Johann Hari presents The Real Reason Obama Has Let Us All Down (which translates into a Saturn vs Neptune face-off.)Now I agree with the basic ideas Mr. Hari poses yet it seems to me that GOP undermining from Day One has something to do with how the Obama presidency has not been as effectual as most of us wanted it to be by now. The legendary American impatience is
Impeach Justice Roberts over Citizens United?
Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-OR) is talking big about the potential of impeaching Chief Justice John Roberts whose only-an-umpire status touted (aka, lied about) at his confirmation hearing has been seriously undercut by 2010’s democracy-numbing Citizens United decision which has allowed the flooding of the November 2010 midterms with obscene amounts of money from unnamed, foreign sources and

Deja-vu: the Lehman Brothers collapse 2008 – 2010
September 15, 2010: it’s been two years since the stupid mistake was made to let the venerable Lehman Brothers firm crash into bankruptcy. This morning NPR did a 4 minute interview with Peter Chapman who’s written a book on the subject. The interview is worth a listen, if you missed it.Now here’s a post I wrote in September 2008 which details, among other things, the Lehman Brothers crisis of
Obama presser w/ his natal Neptune rising 9.10.10
Update 9.10.10: just read Paul Krugman’s piece Things Could Be Worse which addresses the economic measures of the president as mentioned in his presser today, R v D tactics and what would happen if Rs take control in November midterms, and compares our financial crisis 2008 with Japan’s response to their own financial crisis of the 1990s. A good read.And if you missed it, here’s a White House
Looking ahead to November midterms 2010
While Democrats pushed through a jobs bill that kept the doors open at local schools, hospitals, and senior centers, Republicans voted to lay off hundreds of thousands of Americans.While Democrats looked out for us, paying for this bill by eliminating corporate loopholes, Republicans looked out for CEOs who shipped jobs overseas.It’s a clear choice this November. Either we open doors to a better
Newt Gingrich then and now: (im) peaches and tea
Newt Gingrich last won political office so long ago the chads have whiskers.And though he’s up to something GOP-ish with the big corporation Koch Brothers funded Tea Party movement, this article comparing him in his political heyday (think ‘impeach Clinton’) to his current machinations leaves me sputteringly speechless. Almost.As I like to remind people whenever necessary: Mr. Gingrich is not
