Last Saturday night, I appeared on the Justice with Jeanine Pirro show on Fox. It was maybe my 30th appearance representing liberals and it was my worst. I was terrible. Judge Pirro asked me a question that I didn’t know was coming: What specifically did Hillary Clinton actually accomplish in the…
The Case Against Rahm
April 3, 2015
I wish I could be with Rahm and feel Chicago is in the hands of a tough, capable leader. But I’ve come to understand that our great city is about to re-elect a guy just as bad or worse than Rod Blagojevich. I wish I were exaggerating. If this…
It’s time to declare your independence from the people who have taken it from you. You know that July 4th is the day we celebrate our national independence from the British crown. What you may not know is that July 4th was just as much about declaring independence from…
Wouldn’t you like to know who doesn’t want your business?
February 27, 2014
I’m glad Governor Jan Brewer struck the Ok-To-Hate-Gay law. But, I’m still sad that there isn’t a dependable mechanism for gay-hating business owners to tell us gays to stay away. Not only would I stay away, but I would delight in the Yelp commentary. The free market could then…

Here is a simple graphic on America’s wealth monopoly
February 20, 2014
I wanted to understand how few people own so so much of our country. So, I made an infographic – and it looks it. But, it cleared things up for me and I hope for you. (I love infographics – I wish I had some infographics skills.)
Why Chris Christie Is Showing US How American Voters Get Robbed
February 18, 2014
If this Chris Christie article doesn’t stoke your rage at the state of 2014 American politics, nothing will. I’m not talking about the revelations about the Governor – it’s not exactly a shock that an obese blustering bully self-medicates with rank corruption disguised as crime fighting, in addition to…
The Free Market Isn’t God
January 2, 2014
The Free Market Isn’t God. Those five words, strung together, seem obvious, right? Except they are the opposite of what the 1% have taught you and me for the last 40 years. The 1%, the Koch Brothers and their stooges teach us that the “free market” is God –…
If you want to achieve and earn real money, you have to be willing to risk and to fail. But, today failure is a terminal disease, not a transition. Nowhere is this clearer than in the reaction to the early roll-out of healthcare.gov. Healthcare.gov is just a website. A…
Chris Christie is too fat to be president (but because he’s unhinged, not because he’s fat)
November 18, 2013
Chris Christie’s extreme obesity is fair topic because it reveals some obvious mental health problems that make him unfit for the presidency. We’re not talking about a guy with a beer gut. Or even a guy who is two chairs on the plane. We’re talking about a guy who…
