Pointing Out the Monsters among the Sheep By David Glenn Cox
They beat a 14-year-old child to death for a minor offense and the law says they did no wrong. Emmett Till was 14 when he was beaten to death in Mississippi back in 1955. He had supposedly whistled at a white woman but that minor offense carried a death sentence.

It’s a Small World After All By David Glenn Cox
Here we are on this God forsaken mud ball orbiting a second rate sun on a Cul de Sac set off in a back water solar system, light years from the main road of the universe. Perhaps that’s why some choose to treat us as if we just fell off the proton truck from Pluto. The belief that we literally don’t know the difference between shit and shinola or the difference between impropriety and the appearance of impropriety.

The Barbarian at the Gate By David Glenn Cox
This week’s edition of scandalthon 2000 takes us back again to the attorney generals office. Apparently Mr. Gonzales while issuing a public statements that torture would not be tolerated was at the same time issuing an internal documents that not only would torture be tolerated but that it was to be encouraged.
Was anyone surprised by this? Is it rage fatigue or is it benign acceptance? No (…) -

Will George Bush attack Iran? "I would call that empty propaganda," Bush said. "Evidently, there’s a lot of gossip in the parts of the country - world that try to scare people about me personally or my country or what we stand for. And that kind of gossip is just what it is. It’s gossip. It’s baseless gossip."

What could I possibly mean with that title, Don’t Puke in the Banana Suit? Well, years ago I had a friend named Chris and we hung around together in a crowd of guys. Some of us who worked together and some of us were friends of friends and we partied and watched College football games together.
One weekend Chris announced that he had gotten a part time job in advertising, on the weekends he would (…) -

UNICOR, When Prisoners Work the System Works By David Glenn Cox
"Arbeit macht frei" is a German phrase meaning "work brings freedom" or "work shall set you free/will free you" or "work liberates" and, literally in English, "work makes free". It became the unofficial slogan of Nazi concentration camps, as the prisoners would enter the camp they would see the wrought iron sign over head and would savor its (…) -
The Broken Window

By David Glenn Cox
Presenting neither the vision we would need to see of the world as it is nor protecting us from the cold rain. It exists as a relic, a partial reality but a total falsity. Invisible to the naked eye but jagged enough to bloody those who attempt to prove the point.
The result’s are in the elections over! All hail President Hillary! The corporate vote is in and the rich and powerful have spoken. In a decisive victory corporate America has voted to continue the policies (…) -

Ghost Dance By David Glenn Cox
When the Teton Sioux nation surrendered in 1876-77 they were promised that they could maintain sovereignty on their land.

They could choose only the leaders that met with Washington’s approval. They could set only policies that (…) -

Under the Hammer By David Glenn Cox
Through serendipity I received the other day in the mail a four page color brochure. Online Auction Due To Plant Closure, 2 Day Auction of Over 700 Lots of Textile & Plant Support Equipment. I thought it odd that I should receive it in the mail but maybe someone thought I might be in the market to open my own textile mill or perhaps like the outsourcing companies they have to post the jobs locally first.

Come gather round people were ever you roam and admit that the waters around you have grown and accept it that soon you’ll be drenched bone if your time to you is worth saving then you better start swimming or you’ll sink like a stone for the times they are a changing. (Bob Dylan)
Sire, the people are revolting! “Yes, I know and they smell bad too.” Shhh, it’s a secret and the Republican (…)
