From Crispus Attucks to Michael Brown: Race and Revolution
IT'S TIME.
LEAVE IT TO PEEVER exists to give the other side of the story. Challenge the status quo. Confront conventional wisdom. This is sadly needed. I believe it is best to always cast positive doubt on the powers that be. It helps to even up the story.Or score. Please feel free to comment and submit articles. Not everything needs to be serious. I use a lot of slapstick humor, satire, and pontificating. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. We're about to embark on a survival adventure.

WHAT DOES THE ARKANSAS WEATHER HAVE IN COMMON WITH RIGHT-WING REPUBLICANS?
We retired to Arkansas for the improved weather, especially in the winter. Our first winter, we had the worst storm they have ever had. It was the first time the news stations used the word "blizzard." Last year, the locals said it was the coldest, and longest, winter they had ever seen. This winter was coming along pretty good. Last night, one inch of ice and about 3-4 in. of snow. Tonight they are calling for the lowest temperature, ever. I'm so glad we are making history. I think the whole thing is due to the fact that Arkansas turned Republican during about this same time-frame. Not just Republican, but right-wing Republican. Bad weather-bad politics. I'm pretty sure the end is near. SEND HELP!

SOMEBODY CHECK MY BRAIN
- I THOUGHT THE PRESIDENT SAID "NO MORE WAR."
- MITCH McCONNELL SAID SOMETHING THAT MADE SENSE.
- MY BRAIN MUST BE MALFUNCTIONING. I DIDN'T THINK JUST ANYONE COULD COME INTO THIS COUNTRY AND ADDRESS CONGRESS? MUST HAVE BEEN MY MISTAKE. I'M GOING TO INVITE CASTRO. WE COULD USE A LITTLE LECTURE ON REVOLUTION.
- I'M LEFT HANDED, SO THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY BRAIN IS DOMINANT. THAT'S WHY I DON'T UNDERSTAND RIGHT-WING CHRISTIANS.
- THE OLDER I GET, THE LESS INCLINED I AM TO REMEMBER THINGS.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
“The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite
of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not
heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's
indifference.”
