Ted Cruz for Senate
Under The Marble Arch
"I slept and dreamt that life was Joy.
I woke and saw that life was Duty.
I acted, and behold, Duty was Joy."
–Rabindranath Tagore

"The skepticism about human rationality that science inspires should not be taken as support for authoritarianism or paternalism… On the contrary, it should render questionable all claims to wise and disinterested leadership, including those of America’s own altruistic progressive technocrats who propose policies to “nudge” the unenlightened masses into doing the right thing. It makes more sense to think of our leaders and intellectuals as half-crazed hooting howler monkeys — just like the rest of us."
–Michael Lind, Salon, August 23,2011
“Seeing what isn’t there is half the job of being on the Left. The other half is changing what isn’t there through costly, intrusive, and ill-conceived initiatives (save 10 percent for keeping Charlie Rangel out of trouble).” -Abe Greenberg, October 9, 2009
 “To date, what non-Obama voters see, and fear, is a candidate content to coast to the nomination and then conduct a blandly conservative campaign. They want a more substantive choice than that. They want to have it out over the worth or danger of Barack Obama’s ideas. They want the chance to ratify Washington’s enormous long-term claims on the country’s wealth, or decisively reject them." – Daniel Henninger, WSJ, July 21, 2011

It's Midnight but it's all right...

...cuz I got two more bottles of fuel.

Emmylou Harris has done covers of at least two "bottle" song, both of which spring to mind whenever the word bottle is mentioned to me (free association game: bottle...Emmylou.)

There being no YouTube of Ms Harris performing "Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down," lately nominated as Hugo Chavez's personal theme song, we have a rendition by Gram Parsons, Emmylou's mentor:


Sorry about the video- not a lot going on, but the music is good.  Hey, the guy's dead but he sounds good.
