Cognitive Dissonance

Hey, I'm back too! Monkey see, monkey post...

So unless I'm mistaken, this is the right wing's position on Obama:

Barack Hussein Obama is a secret Muslim who is anti-religion and has a Christian preacher who hates America.

Cue head explosion in 3...2...1...

I'm Back

I've been gone for quite a while. Part of the reason was that I've been dealing with some serious health issues. Health insurance has made this situation much worse. They decided to pay for 80% of my hospital bill, but the prescription budget of $1,300 ran out months ago, so now I'm spending about $800 per month on prescriptions.

But the main reason I haven't been posting is that I've been very busy finishing up my Ph.D. in, lets say, basket weaving. In a few months, you will have to call me Dr. Jose. Hopefully I'll be around more often.

Lapel Pins

Amid all of the fuss about Barak Obama's lack of lapel pins, I noticed this:






Not one American flag lapel pin. I guess John McCain just hates America.
