I just adored this photo essay by McGinn on Seattle’s values. Of course a lot of them are universal values, not unique to Seattle or to cities in general, but all in all wonderful.

    Yawwwn. For the benefit of morons who have trouble reading:

    A team of physicists and statisticians that set out to challenge the scientific consensus on global warming is finding that its data-crunching effort is producing results nearly identical to those underlying the prevailing view.

    I gladly concede your greater success at being a moronic bigot who believes Dori Monson is teh shiz..

    1. People stop voting republican when they find out that voting republican hurts them in their wallet. Maybe it’s greed, but as along as the pain is felt by someone else, they are gung ho republicans, but as soon as the people elected start to hurt THEM, then they turn. The bad side of this is that any party that tells unpleasant truths, like we have financial problems, will be voted out of office.

    2. However, if the unpleasant truths are presented as a shared sacrifice, I think the people will go for it. Wisconsin was one sided. Only the unions were hurt and it gave away public utilities to the Koch brothers. That’s not shared sacrifice, that’s profiteering. The federal budget is one sided. It only cuts, it doesn’t address raising revenue on the rich and it doesn’t touch our three wars that are hemorrhaging our tax dollars. If you want to cut medicare, also cut congressional health care.

    No, they don’t. If they did, no Republicans would be in office. 2% of the population can’t elect anyone. Finding out isn’t the key–understanding it is.

    McGinn an idiot. Over a third of Seattle’s tax revenue is based on jobs created by trade. Yet his “values” seek to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs for his pet projects.

Can’t Bring Yourself to Type the Word “Ass”?
