An awesome horror fiction writer! Bentley Little was born in Arizona after his mother watched the premiere of Psycho. He is a Bram Stoker Award winner, who can count Stepen King and Dean Koontz as fans.
"A master of the macabre"--Stephen King
"Rock-'em, shock-'em contempory terror fiction" --Dean Koontz
Bentley Little takes on ordinary subjects and exploites and exaggerates their possiblities for nefarious activities. In The Store he looks behind the scenes of a Wal-mart-like mega store and the terrible effects it has on a small town. In The Policy, he looks a the very real scenario of insurance companies controlling and ruining lives. Most of Bentley Little's books are scary because they seem like they actually could happen.

U.S. Congressman Joe Barton (R-Texas) was the lead
Republican at the congressional hearings about the bp oil spill.
As his opening remarks with bp's Tony Hayward, he actually apologized to him for President Obama's "harsh treatment." Barton actually said Obama's insisting on bp setting up a $20 Billion victim compensation fund was a "shakedown."
The appropriate shock and awe followed. Even John Boehner was embarrassed and Barton eventually apologized for his own assisnine insensitive stupidity.
Some of Rep. Barton's Republican colleages were surprised to hear he was a bp sympathizer, but many of his corporate owned colleages agreed with him. However if you look at his $1.4 million in campaign contributions from big oil you can begin to understand.

Fiscal responsibility is a term republicans pull out for campaign ads every election cycle. The G.O.P. claims to be fiscally responsible while claiming their Democratic opponents are not.
Obviously, the Republican Party has no idea what being "fiscally responsible" actually means! A budget should include adequete revenue (i.e. taxes) to cover all the obligations. Republicans think the only way to balance a budget is to cut taxes. Democrats, like Bill Clinton, know that cutting expenses AND increasing revenue is the only way to balance a budget. Democrats' tax and spend idea is a lot more logical than the Republicans' borrow and spend policy!
Remember that about 75% of our national debt was caused by the last 3 Republican presidents! (Reagan, Bush41 and Bush43) The last two times the national budget was balanced a Democrat was president!! (Lyndon Johnson 1969 and Bill Clinton 2000)
The tea party claims to be concerned about fiscal responsibility, however they didn't seem concerned about it when George W Bush was cutting taxes and running up huge debts while trying to fight two insane and inappropriate wars!

Bushnesia is a mental disorder that affects memory.
Many people developed this disorder late in 2008, early 2009 and it continues to spread. Most of the people with this affliction are Republicans and bush supporters. They complain about the huge national debt and the economic disaster that hit during the Bush Administration and they blame Preisdent Obama for the bad effects of Bush's heinous deeds.
The tea party was founded by people who were upset about out of control government and the huge national debt, however due to bushnesia, they're misdirecting their anger at Obama rather than the true source of the problem: George W. Bush and pro-rich Republicans!

A term for a common, although, not common enough, fear of Sarah Palin. Unlike standard paranoia, which is an irrational fear, palinoia is a very rational and justified fear!
Anyone who pays attention to politics should realize that there are many reasons to fear the rise of the Palin patriots. As seen during the 2008 presidential campaign, Sarah Palin is frighteningly ignorant of global issues and totally clueless about how government works. She has a cult of clueless fuckwits followers that call themselves the tea party.
These scary people want to undo all of the progress made in the last 50 years!
Those who acknowledge their own palinoia, worry that anti-goverment radicals like the tea party will completely destroy America. A clueless fuckwit should never be allowed to gain so much power, remember George W Bush?

Constitution Shredders first gained power during the Bush Administraion. After the "events" of 9/11/01, George W. Bush pushed for more government control to "fight terrorism." Bush's Patriot Act, warrantless wiretapping and censorship marked the beginning of the end of the Bill of Rights. The Right Wing nut jobs' continuous anti-gay and "pro-life" actions are attacks on the "equal protection under the law" provsions of the constitution. Now in 2010 as the anti-immigrant movement grows, John Boehner and other G.O.P. Congressmen and Senators are talking about changing the 14th Ammendment. They want to deny U.S. Citizenship to children born in America if the parents are illeagal immigrants!
The Republican Party is full of Constitution Shredders!
Stop the madeness and save our Constition and maintain our rights!

Liberal Hippy Politics, is a concept that faded into history during the late 70s or early 80s after hitting its peak around 1972.
The hippy political movement was an anti-establishment force that was organized by anti-war college students. In 1968, Bobby Kennedy was the first presidential candidate supported by the hippies and George McGovern was the last major hippy supported candidate in 1972.
During the 70s, the hippies grew up and became yuppies and supported moderate mainstream candidates like Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton.
Liberal Hippy Politics was the driving force that lead to the end of the Viet Nam war.
