I took this shot this past week, and couldn’t help thinking “political thoughts:”

Like, “Governor of New Jersey Visits Western Massachusetts.”

I gave up writing political rants a good while ago, but that doesn’t mean I don’t still think about it.

It Has Come To My Attention… February 18, 2010

…that Crooks and Liars had a link to my humble site today.

Really.

Now if you came here from Crooks and Liars, I’m thinkin’ you’re more interested in politics and social matters than in my humble attempts at photography.

If that’s the case, you can click on the “Politics and Society” category in the right sidebar, or just click this link.

I’ve written a lot less about these issues in the last year, since my understanding of it expanded to the point where I see it all as being connected.  I can’t talk about the Supreme Court without talking about corporate hegemony.  I can’t talk about Islamic fundamentalists without talking about the killings of abortion providers in this country and the rise of Christian fundamentalism.  I can’t talk about health care reform without talking about campaign finance reform.  It’s all connected, and I just can’t seem to find a starting or ending point.

But I’m workin’ on it.  A couple of recent encounters with Tea Baggers have me pissed off enough to work through my personal limitations and get back into the fray.

I mean, I’ve got kids, you know?  And they deserve more from me than a retreat into the comfort of my private life.

It ain’t a pretty job, but somebody’s got to do it.

In fact, we all have to do it.  We don’t have to do it better than our gaggle of e-cquaintances, we don’t have to do it better than our Meat-World friends,

we just have to do it.

Wish me luck, and I’ll do the same for you.

Thanks for stopping by.  Your visits fuel my process.

And a special H/T to my Siamese Cousin Bob for tipping me off about the link.

A Special Thanks… January 17, 2008

…to FranIAm for helping me to snap out of my med-induced coma for long enough to pass a brainstone.

Not necessarily a coherent brainstone, but hey, it hurt like The Real Thing…
