Popsicle Pathology This is not even Pop culture, its Popsicle culture. Regurgitated to meet the demands of a reality-based celebrity-obsessed cultural cesspool that defies the notion of depth. Andy Warhol's theory of fifteen-minute fame was conceived in a pre-ADD mind-set. Who can even tolerate fifteen minutes without being bored to death or achingly distracted? Unless, like with Arnie and Maria, our force-fed celebrity fix is constructed from disposable, non-biodegradable plastic....

The Coming Post-Election Chaos This next presidential election, on November 2, may be followed by post-election chaos unlike any we've ever known
Look at the swirling, ugly currents currently at work in this conspicuously close race. There is Republicans' history of going negative to win elections. There is Karl Rove's disposition to challenge close elections in post-election brawls. And there is Democrats' (and others) new unwillingness to roll over, as was done in 2000. Finally, look at the fact that a half-dozen laws...

A Response to the "Kerry in Swing State" Petition Signers Many of the individuals who gave a blanket endorsement to Nader in the 2000
election have signed a petition urging "support for Kerry/Edwards in all
swing states, even while we strongly disagree with Kerry's policies on Iraq
and other issues." (See: http://www.votetostopbush.com)
Many warned at the time that some sort of "strategic voting" would be
needed in 2000. (See my piece "A New Way To Vote -- As A Duet" http://www.commondreams.org/views/102900...

DEATH BY STONING FOR GAYS AND ADULTERERS? DECODING THE BUSH/EXTREME-RIGHT AGENDA. In his new book, "Cruel and Unusual: Bush/Cheney's New World Order," Mark Crispin Miller paints a sobering picture of the American extreme right and its campaign to dismantle Constitutional government and replace it with a pseudo-religious, "Christo-fascist" theocracy in which Old Testament law--and the Ten Commandments--would be brutally enforced. Death by stoning for adultery, for abortion, for homosexuality, and even for disobedient children. Could it happen here? Is th...
