I want buying my paintings to be like buying a CD: it’s cheap, it’s art and it changes your life, but the object has no status. Musicians create something for the moment, something with no boundaries and that kind of expansiveness is what I want to come across in my work.

Perhaps we should rename it Feministmo
9 Comments Published by punkass marc July 31st, 2006 in Bush is a cock, Human RightsWe’ve been tossing the hot potato from Gitmo to Iraq to Lebanon to keep us distracted from how badly we’re performing and/or abusing law in each of these areas. Just as public sentiment starts to boil over about one, bam-whoosh-kapow, we’re transported to another. Today, we’re bounced back to Gitmo via an AP report […]
From the New Yorker. Gotta take it.
Hey, I’m not the only one ripping the Dems for their weak strategy
0 Comments Published by punkass marc July 31st, 2006Matt from myDD is also tired of the bungled, vapid message of the party. He hates their new slogan ideas and suggests his own:
Republicans support George Bush. Losers.
Some of the commenters do even better, and I’d like to submit:
-Bring freedom and our soldiers back home.
-Energy for tomorrow. [oooh, multiple meanings!]
-Fight back.

Poetry Monday: With No Experience in Such Matters
3 Comments Published by McBoing July 31st, 2006 in PoetryBy Stephen Dunn
To hold a damaged sparrow
under water until you feel it die
is to know a small something
about the mind; how, for example,
it blames the cat for the original crime,
how it wants praise for its better side.
And yet it’s as human
as pulling the plug on your Dad
whose world has turned
to feces and fog, human as–
Well, […]
Panicky House Republicans tried to scam an easy win on all sides by tying estate tax relief to a minimum wage hike:
Critics say the House deal, linking an increase in the minimum wage with a sharp reduction of the estate tax, is aimed at two groups at opposite ends of the economic spectrum. The minimum wage hike will help some 6.6 million beneficiaries with an average dollar benefit of $1,200. The estate tax cut will benefit some 8,200 people with an average dollar benefit of $1.4 million, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP) in Washington.
Whose jihad are we talking about again?
0 Comments Published by punkass marc July 30th, 2006 in Imperialism for Dummies, Wingnuts, Media hackeryHonestReporting.com pushes no small amount of DisingenuousPropaganda intended to fuel war between the West and the Middle East.
Now, they’ve released a propumentary film called “Obsession,” and it’s available on google video. If you have 80 minutes to devote to Inciting Hate 101, I highly recommend a viewing.
The film is appalling. While it opens […]

“F—–g Jews. The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world,” Mee’s report quotes him as saying.
“Are you a Jew?” Gibson asked the deputy, according to the report.
The actor also berated the deputy, threatening, “You motherf—-r. I’m going to f— you,” according to Mee’s report.

New York Post calls for genocide
11 Comments Published by punkass marc July 29th, 2006 in Imperialism for Dummies, Media hackery, Mutterings Of The DisturbedAt least they stopped pretending the war has anything to do with freedom for the people of Iraq. It’s more like a Raiders football game — just win, baby!
A few days ago, John Podhoretz of the Post (h/t tristero) made a call for Sunni extermination. That’s how far we’ve come. […]
