  • The Loon Weighs In

    MaxRedline

    The idiotic perfesser from Lewis & Clark has unsurprisingly jumped on the resignation of Alaska governor Palin with his usual conspiracy junk.  What a clown.  Hard to believe that people pay good money to "learn" from the dork.  He's, what?  55?  You'd think he'd have grown up by now.  What' [...]

  • Palin in 2012

    Quark Soup

    Ordinarily I might despair about the prospect of another dumb anti-intellectual, anti-science candidate running for President...but in any 2012 campaign, I'm quite sure Barack Obama will not only clean Sarah Palin's clock, he will rewire it, put on a fresh coat of paint, and promptly set it to back to' [...]

    "As administrator, I will ensure EPA's efforts to address the environmental crises of today are rooted in three fundamental values: science-based policies and program, adherence to the rule of law, and overwhelming transparency." In case anyone missed the point, Mr. Obama took another shot at his predecessors in April, vowing [...]

  • Should Bicyclists Pay A Road Tax?

    MaxRedline

    Number of comments: 0

    That seemingly innocuous question, printed on an ad-wrap affixed to the exterior of some light-rail cars (as well as posted inside), has irked Portland's "bicycle community".  The bike activists claim that the ad perpetuates the idea that bikes "don't belong" - a nebulous term, at best. 

    Why they find' [...]

    MoreAndBetterDemocratsCycleYouAreHere1

    By Steve Hynd

    A couple of days ago,  Chris Bowers snarkily announced his conversion to being a "conservative Democrat".

    After several years of trying to "retake" the Democratic Party and make it more progressive, today I am giving up and becoming a conservative Democrat. Upon careful consideration, the benefits [...]

  • I-1033, TABOR and some math

    On Thursday initiative developer Tim Eyman turned around 314,000 signatures to put his latest measure on the ballot. The secretary of state’s office indicates it is likely to be the only citizen initiative on the ballot, which could be a plus: Rather than fade into a fog of issues, this [...]

    If I were told Portlanders had more tattoos per capita than other cities, I would not be surprised. Tattoos have the ability to be both personal and public at the same time. They can be used to permanently mark significant events, an artistic vision, a current [...]

  • TriMet Unveils New Green Line Light Rail

    MaxRedline

    Number of comments: 2

    The new snub,nosed, sleek loot rail trains give an illusion of speed, and it gets better: Their seriously market-tested yellow and blue color scheme is one that, according to TriMet marketing director Carolyn Young, riders chose as the most "warm, friendly and modern."

    Yep, you gotta love it.  The gang-bangers [...]
