Has Richard Pearle taken over?
Want to lose your breakfast? Read NY Times coverage of Israel's mixed messages on bombing Iran. Ehud Barak, Israeli generals and war-monger Bibi seem to be fighting internally. (Of course the question seems to get down to whether to bomb on Monday or Friday!) All these hawks need is a Richard Pearle or a Dick Cheney, and with a little luck they could destroy life on this planet.

Barak warned of a "new arms race" with Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and even the new Egypt. Whoa Nelly! Could we just bomb every nation that has, or is thinking of having, nukes? Why must our leaders always turn to mililtary options?

Message to Tom Barrett. Once again, we have been told that you are critical of Walker for failure to get approval of mining legislation. Actually, Tom, it was Native Americans and environmentalists who opposed the mines, not Walker's incompetence. Barrett claims he would do better. Yikes! He would re-open the mine debate. Hot news, Tom: We don't want the mines. The Bad River Nation does not want the mines. You seem tone deaf on this issue. You have ignored Bad River chair Mike Wiggins. Wiggins confirmed Bad River opposition on Fighting Bob Radio yesterday that he tried but failed to meet with you.

Weather: A new study suggests more extreme weather as global warming continues than scientists had predicted. But, what the hell, we have more pressing problems to deal with. You know, passing the Ryan budget!

Want to see Commissioner Bob and Weave? Roger Goodell was asked how he plans to deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars team owner who exposed workers in his Michigan plant (now closed) to dangerous chemicals without proper protection. Sort of like ignoring concussions in the NFL! UAW members and others concerned, picketed NFL headquarters to protest and to demand clean-up. We will soon learn if Goddell has the health of the public on his agenda.

If Barrett is the best the Dummycraps can do then God help them because no one else is able.

The people of Wisconsin and this nation are crying out for real change, not the phony crap Obamney dished out, and yet the Dums continue with the same old 1.1 party message of "me too, just less so".

The people of Occupy and the protests in Madison, Ohio, etc should be ashamed of themselves for being so stupid as to think the Dummycraps would ever really change anything. We need real Democrats with a consistent message that admits there really is a them and us or else we need a real and progressive third party that will concentrate on legislative races so that those at the executive level of president of governor will have no choice but to trim their sails and work for us for a change.

The next time Occupy decides to engage in one of their sophomoronic protests let me suggest that the first order of business should be to hang a sign over the nearest Dummycrap headquarters that reads ABANDON HOPE ALL YE WHO ENTER HERE!

How odd for the Israelis to feel they need to be proactive in thier survival as a nation and a people. Its not like millions of them were seen as sub human and systematically killed just 70 years ago. After all Iran's Imanutjob says it didn't happen. I have no idea why Isreal wouldn't trust such a lunatic leader with nukes next door.
