  1. It's time we examined the Catholic Church's tax-exempt status. Oh, and fuck Notre Dame.
  2. People forget how incendiary Christmas Carol was in its day. It could use a dark, political update to breathe life into what is now cliche.
  3. @owillis still waiting for them to make the Bioshock movie. Could be a delectable takedown of Ayn Rand's bullshit if done right.
  4. Audiences need to be confronted with the prejudices that allow them to take Scrooge's side even today.
  5. Most audiences would take scrooge's side if his name were Jones, and Cratchit's name were Alvarez, and Fred were a hippie. Sad.
  6. I want to see a Christmas Carol in modern times, with an undocumented hispanic as cratchit + scrooge with a check cashing empire.
  7. RT @DanteAtkins: who here thinks a moderate named Abel Maldonado can make it out of a Republican primary? show of hands please. #calitics
  8. @majornelson what about mouse support?
  9. RT @DanteAtkins: Attention CA Senate Dems: confirm Maldonado and give us a chance at 2/3rds in the Senate.
  10. @plutoniumpage @guyadams I've listened to countless Lawler Clippers broadcasts. He's not a racist. A little ignorant maybe. Not racist.
  11. @majornelson when will xbox get keyboard, mouse support?
  12. I sure hope Reid knows what he's doing
  13. RT @spk22: Before Reagan was Gov of CA we had the highest rate of students going to 4 yr schools from high school. Now we're 49th, ahead ...
  14. RT @jonahhorowitz: @cruickshank @j_stromberg @DavidOAtkins UC students upset over rising tuition and not trying to repeal prop13 - YOU FAIL
  15. @lucasoconnor no. Townhalls? Maybe. Tea parties? No. The big impact is pharma money. Without it, we'd have single payer by now.
  16. @lucasoconnor Like tea partiers on hcr: "we protested but they didn't listen!". Uh...no shit idiots. Nobody cares.
  17. @lucasoconnor because for many people post facto protest is substitute for political organizing. They think they did smthng + it's not true
  18. @lucasoconnor somewhere, mlk and gandhi are vomiting at ucb students comparing their own plight to theirs.
  19. @lucasoconnor MLK and Gandhi were working under severe oppression with no hope of political remedy. Totally different.
  20. I have similar contempt for tea party ppl as for ANSWER coalition.
