"

Global Protests & Uprisings Time-Lapse Map A time-lapse of a series of maps marking protests and uprisings around the globe since December 18th.

Mostly, it looks like a virus spreading and that is just nifty.

The Obama Conundrum: Progress and Protest in the Face of Reality "Whether in our hearts or in our minds, the vast majority of us know this to be true: Change isn't coming because Barack Obama is going to be President.

The Hostile Takeover: Time to Scuttle the Bailout and Move On to Solutions Congress' clings stubbornly to the dead bailout plan, waisting time trying to repackage a flatly unpopular proposal with more ambiguous sections. It's time for them to give up, and start addressing good solutions in an open forum.
