 Yes It Is Pleasant To Vote Against Fascism But We Are Still At War
(From June, 2012)

Siting on the sofa On a Sunday afternoon / Goin' to the candidates' debate
Laugh about it, shout about it / When you've got to choose
Either way you look at it, you lose
-- Simon and Garfunkel, "Mrs. Robinson" (1968)

 
(Cartoon: Mr Fish

 When the practice of politics becomes little more than deciding the color of posters advertising candidates, both of whose actual policies benefit a ruling elite, the question in America is not, How did we come to this?, but "Whaddaya talkin' about? Ahhh, go live in France, ya cheese monkey." Right.
