The Republicans’ debt ceiling fanaticism is paying off with what Bloomberg describes as a rout in global stocks.

Why were they willing to defy good sense and past practice and cause the first downgrading of the credit of the United States of America since 1789?

Chauncey de Vega has a theory:

Let us be frank and state the obvious…a reality that so many in the mainstream media are loathe to admit: The Tea Party GOP and its highwayman want to destroy President Obama because he is a Democrat. But, they despise him because he is Black.

And they are willing to take the rest of us down with him.

Before you dismiss his theory because it sounds icky and gross and “we don’t want to talk about that,” click to read the whole thing, then decide whether or not he’s got a point.

These are not nice people.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
