Even At A Whisper

March 21st, 2012

I have received a lot of inquiries regarding our relative absence last week. A few readers even asked if I was abandoning the blog.

Not a chance.

Here's the deal.

The first love of my life has always been music.

My dearest collaborator, Stella Katsoudas, and I recently regrouped the band Sister Soleil. The first single is ready and here is a terrific fan video, completed yesterday, that we have chosen to distribute ahead of its wider release.

It is called "Even At A Whisper (Your Voice Is Power)". We meant it to be an anthem in opposition to bullying. In fact, we invited a group of children and teens who have suffered such ill treatment to belt out the chorus.

Speak out. Get involved. Do something. Your voice is power.

Is Jeffrey Lord Really This Dense?

March 5th, 2012

The answer to the question is, apparently, yes.

Even more so than previously suspected.

Writing for the American Spectator, he launches into a tirade on behalf of poor little Rush Limbaugh. He is appalled that people are appalled at Rush's appalling behavior. Get this:

"It's time to stand up to the bullies.

It's time to Rally for Rush."
EMPHASIS MINE

He actually wrote this. I shit you not. 

Please "enjoy" his whole piece wherein he repeats the smear that Ms. Fluke "demands to be paid for her sex life," refers to those of us who have fought back as "the blacklisting crowd" emerging from our "Stalinist caves" (that mixed metaphor is rich,) and repeatedly berates the young woman "for her obnoxiously intolerant behavior when it comes to the free speech of others."

I really am not making this up. It's not from the Onion.

So, all you "Stalinist" loons, put your "blacklisting" hats on and let him know how sorry you are at jlpa1@aol.com
