Michelle Malkin, the author of the controversial book, In Defense of Internment, speaks from University of California at Berkeley, fiercely trying to defend her position against the loud and angry demonstration outside protesting her appearance. Malkin’s views are incredibly unpopular, especially on such a liberal campus. Her take on the racial politics of the internment […]
Note from Team Cho: Margaret’s working 16 hour days in NYC on a project for a friend plus doing tour press up until her shows at The Apollo on the 28th (2 sold out shows!!). She has no internet access. Her entries this week will be intermittent at best. We’ve posted a typical letter fom […]
Barack Obama is solidly moving as the keynote speaker at the Democratic National Convention. He has a direct and simple message, most of which is encapsulated by his mere presence as a speaker. What he is saying to me, is just common sense. He is talking about how the genius of America is the reliance […]
Every once in awhile, I will look up from my computer and marvel at the wonderful, endless and paperless chase that is the internet. You hand off from link to link, like flying between branches, possessing the instinctual glee of an untamed chimpanzee, wild within a jungle of information. On boingboing.net, an extremely joyful and […]
Omni Hotels stopped payment on the check. I said I would not accept their money after they turned the microphone off after a few minutes of my performance. The fact they would censor my words was so appalling, that I didn’t want their ‘silence the truth’ germs to get on me. So, I donated all […]
I did a gig last Saturday night, not really something that unusual, but it was not my typical show. It was a corporate convention, the kind I normally avoid even though there are extravagant sums to be made, because I hate the atmosphere at those events. However, this was booked by a friend, was in […]
I’m watching Larry King and wondering why he hikes his shoulders so high up. His elbows lean across the all too familiar desk and he seems to have his chair slightly too low. I believe this will give him back trouble and it concerns me. He is concerned, as we all are, because the pictures […]

Aaron Brown is so fine. And I think that he treated himself to some new glasses. I am not positive, because they are strikingly similar to the last terrifically flattering pair, but since I watch him fairly obsessively, I knew there was something different, that I could not really put my finger on, until my […]
Doesn’t George W. Bush look like he has aged about forty years since last month? I think that watching the news of the world from Mexico City everything looks different and is vastly less censored. This is not the USA, and they don’t care about how the USA looks really, they just want to know […]
Richard Clarke is everyone’s new hero, except perhaps, the Bush administration’s. The former ultimate DC insider, serving under four presidents, is now under intense scrutiny and character assassination from the White House because he implied that September 11 could have been prevented and said that Bush actively ignored the warnings about the attacks, and that […]
Dear Senator Kerry, I am very grateful for your victories and am praying for your swift and graceful transformation from Senator to President of the United States. I heard you speak in San Francisco last year, when you were embarking on your campaign trail. I found you to be an eloquent and sincere man. We […]
