Teabaggery in a Nutshell 0

Daniel Ruth, in considering the recent run-off in Mississippi between Thad Cochran and Chris McDaniel, wraps up the subtext of teabaggery in one short paragraph.

It didn’t hurt Cochran’s rapprochement with his black constituents when McDaniel whined: “It’s time to defend our way of life.” That is shorthand for, “Hey Betty Lou, is my klan robe back from the dry cleaners yet?”

The Republican Party has become the party of racism. Chauncey Devega eloquently wonders why the media is unwilling to address that reality.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

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.
