Waterboarding Isn't Totally Bodacious, Dude
For our Human Rights Week next week at WSU we'll be having several lecturers addressing U.S. torture practices throughout the world and I was happy to hear Amy Goodman addressing waterboarding in today's broadcast of "Democracy Now." As a bonus, Naomi Klein was interviewed in the second half of the show and said some things I found interesting since I just finished The Shock Doctrine last week. It's intriguing to see some of the principles/consequences of disaster capitalism explained in her book popping up even in the last few weeks in the California wildfires. Watch, read, or listen to the interview here.

I nominate Daniel S. Potter for non-partisan party President elect.
I will now make my $20 pledge to help the cause.
All hail no shows on Sunday as Built to Spill as my witness...
I enjoyed this word verification
"esxsyet"
What is this trying to tell me?
I humbly accept your nomination and your twenty bucks. Throw in some of that sushi from that place in Portland and you've got yourself a place in my cabinet, mister.
"esxsyet" is me bringing sexy back.
