Penn Jillette Thinks Lindy West Is a Cunty Cunt!.
Let me get this straight. A white person when say quoting the Nixon tapes to make a point of how racist Nixon must use "the N-Word." What authority has definitively decided this? A lot of black thinkers/writers would feel the exact opposite, that to use "n-word" in actual racist quotations is a lame and touchy-feely way to get out of actual history.

#27. You referenced yourself as the other comment. That's really lame and sad. A lot of black writers, like Ta Nehisi Coates , would have no problem with Schmader's use of the word. It's making a point, where saying the "N-word" just makes the reader say it in their mind. There's a place to use the word in context of someone else using it or it being in a book or a sign (Rick Perry thing). Also, please educate yourself about race is the most condescending line I can think of in a blog comment.

Best Song Ever (This Week): Sensations' Fix's "Music Is Painting in the Air".
Dave have you heard the Falsini album Cold Nose? It was a soundtrack to a Italian documentary about cocaine. It's sublime. Also, Sensation's Fix released an album in 1977 on a weird American Prog label (all ears) called Vision's Fugitives, that's very cool. It's like a stoned proggy cali A/M pop thing with a bit of Bowie. Worth seeking out.

Herman Cain Is Losing His Temper.
Someone needs to start making up absurd questions about the sources of Herman Cain's platform. Like Mr. Cain is it true your Mid-East strategy is directly influenced by the film Monkeybone?

"Are you saying that society should just let him die?".
Last republican debate the crowd erupted in cheers for Rick Perry's death penalty record. This one they cheered the prospect of a poor person dying because they didn't have health-care. Next debate, they should just reenact the scene from Batman Begins where Liam Neeson orders Bruce Wayne to kill a thief. Wolf Blitzer should lead someone on stage and be like, this man is an illegal immigrant, he just got a DUI in an area where many innocent twelve year old girls live. What will you do to him?
