Decrying most any politician for dishonesty makes about as much sense as drinking for sobriety. If these are my choices, I’m voting for Mickey Mouse again.

As several states — North Carolina, in particular — are deciding whether asking for ID to vote is a “racism” concern, I offer this one piece of, “Kiss my ass!” If it was good enough Nelson Mandela, it’s good enough for you, too.

Mandela: "Get an ID. Register. Vote."

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office canceled the Washington Redskins’ trademark, effective 18-Jun-2014 because US trademark law does not permit registration of trademarks that “may disparage” individuals or groups. This doesn’t necessarily require the Redskins to change their name as of yet, but will certainly add fuel to the fire for the entire [ridiculous] debate.

Breaking News: Washington Redskins drop the word "Washington" from their name because it's embarrassing.

How Does a Bill Work?

Back in the 70’s, we had excellent educations regarding the Process of Government, thanks, in no small part to the uproar of the 60’s and some wonderful educational shorts by Schoolhouse Rock.

Regardless of which side of the political fence you’re on, the rules have certainly changed regarding two thirds majority. New points of order, Yea or Nay votes and special interests have completely clouded the Legislative process to the point that no one outside of Congress can make any sense of it.

Since the 80’s, I’ve always said, “Take stock in America — Buy a U.S. Senator!”

"How does a bill work?" "No one fucking knowws any more, Billy."
