Dark suits and power ties In a small display of rampant me-too ism I would like to point to a picture in the news the other day (widely linked to already). The picture accompanies and illustrates a story - which it does very very well. Some pictures are supposed be worth a thousand words. The scene is; President Bush Signs Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003 the story is the ten middle-aged white men sitting at, or standing around that table. Much can be said on the issues of abortion and particularly partial birth abortion, None of which obscures the fact that while republicans may not bandy about the same jargon as your average elitist lefty, gender/identity politics the twin pillars of the american collapse, it is in the end what their politics is solely based on. 10:17:11 AM    comment [];trackback [];
