Dan Riehl takes Repub tradition of dumping sick wives to the "death panel" level

March 13, 2010 by Steve Hanson



Remember the quivering pile of slime who went completely mental in his false-attacks and claims regarding our own Gryphen? Riehl is perhaps a perfect example of the insanity that accompanies denying one's true nature, as his closet lust-affair/obsession with Gryph's "muscled" body was obvious to everyone but Dan.  

Anyway, Riehl is at it again...this time, he wants to lead his own "death panel" on the elderly and Harry Reid's 69-year-old wife will be the first to get the thumbs-down:

Isn't It Time To Euthanize Reid's Wife?

My shaving at St. Baldrick's Day

March 8, 2010 by Steve Hanson




Shaved right before me was the top fundraiser for the Anchorage event, Gene Pool (yeah, I know...I didn't ask).  His impressive total:  $2,546.76

I don't know what I expected when I walked into the McGinley's Pub for the St. Baldrick's Day event.  I didn't expect such a warm reception from the Foundation volunteers who were working tirelessly on the silent auction, signing in "shavees" like me, signing up new volunteer shavees from the crowd (folks would then donate for the volunteer to get shaved) and pairing volunteer barbers with the shavees.  (I had a wonderful woman who was a cancer survivor.)

Damn, I hate when I want to do my own writing, but along comes some political situation poking its thumb in my eye so hard I have no choice but to remove it.  Well, nothing for it but to roll up my sleeves & go at it.

It's a long story.  But it is kind of interesting.  Please read on.

So much stuff, so little time to post

The puppy is asleep between trips outside (we are having housebreaking success!!!) so here's a quick update:

Tax Oil Companies, Not Students

As protests unfold across the state and the nation today against cuts to education and fee increases, more attention is finally being drawn to the massive crisis facing our students, our schools, and our future.

20 years ago a year at UC Berkeley cost just over $1,000 in fees. Even that was much higher than the $0 cost that the 1960 Master Plan pledged. The early 1990s saw a big rise in fees, and by the time I started at UCB in 1997 the cost had risen to over $4,000 a year. Now the cost is slated to rise to a whopping $10,000 per year, something many students and their families cannot afford to pay. And even as those costs rise, including at CSU and community colleges, classes are being cut as educational quality declines.

It's no way to run a state. California's current prosperity is owed largely to the investments Pat Brown made in the 1960s, building a public higher education system that was the world's envy - and that fueled our innovation and economic creativity. But instead of renewing those investments for a new century, Arnold Schwarzenegger is destroying them. The fee increases are a massive tax increase on the young and on the working- and middle-classes.
