A New Settlement in Blogistán Izquierda

I got a nice note from the purveyor of a new liberal blog, AZ Left. I’ve added it to the blogroll.
The boys at Red State Arizona have a piece on AZ Left where they say that it will make this here blog and Blog for Arizona look moderate. Possible with me, but Blog for Arizona? Heck, “Big […]

Calling Dexter

The otherwise level headed Greg Patterson has a post up on Espresso Pundit defending Karen Johnson. Patterson at least admits that the Republic labeling her an “ultraconservative” may be justified (ya think?), but then makes the ridiculous assertion that her views are echoed at Republican and Democratic district club meetings.
What sort of Democratic district club […]

TUSD School Closings

I caught this post by David Safier over on Blog for Arizona about the impending school closings in TUSD. Heck, more than impending, they plan to vote on them tonight.
Safier underestimates the firepower behind the effort to keep Ochoa open. Because of its location, former Supervisor Dan Eckstrom and his brother Art Eckstrom not only […]

Once Again, Greg Patterson Will Be Hearing From the R-Cubed Legal Team

Yeah, Greg, clever to point out that New York’s Spitzer-Paterson ticket of 2006 is almost like you and your friend Marc Spitzer. Clever, clever…’cept I wrote about this almost two years ago.
You have to wake up pretty early…

Mead College Ruled

Weeks ago, someone told me that Democrat-turned-at-least-officially-Republican-turned-Democrat Slade Mead has a blog. I couldn’t find the darned thing. People kept telling me, “you should see it,” but never told me the name or address.
Well, I found it; it is called The Dry Heat. Since he is up in the Greater Phoenix Conurbation, he is able […]

Blogroll Update

I saw that Man Eegee gave me an “Excelente” rating the other day. I realized that I never added the guy to my blogroll. He’s on now.
He also made a plug for my ¡Free Baja Arizona! stickers. Remember that these handy items, along with many other things that your pathetic life will be empty without, […]

Blogger Does Good

There is an article in this morning’s New York Times profiling Josh Marshall, jefe of Talking Points Memo. Marshall recently recieved a George Polk Award for blowing the lid off of the firing of US attorneys. He also served as the inspiration for this blog.

Curse You, NPR!

So, I was listening to NPR on Friday, and they are running a story on Rick Renzi. Then they interview a blogger…and it’s Greg Patterson.
Sheesh. Hey guys, who has been talking about this thing since October of 2006?
I’m hurt in ways I can’t even describe.

Stuff I’ve Been Meaning to Write About

Here ’tis, a delayed reply to the good folks at Wactivist and a late post-mortem for the Obama for America-Arizona campaign.
Last week, Tom-AZ over at Wactivist put up a couple of posts (here and here) asking why Barack Obama lost here in Arizona. He took an uneeded swipe at their political director, Toni Morales. I […]

LDS Teachings on the Environment

Years ago, I attended a memorial service for Morris Udall. One of the speakers was author and environmental activist Terry Tempest Williams. She pointed to Udall’s Mormon upbringing as a big part of why he became congress’s greatest conservationist. She read some passages that were quite beautiful calls to protect the earth. Many in the […]
