Our house is on fire. Join the resistance: Do no harm/take no shit. My idiosyncratic and confluent bricolage of progressive politics, the collaborative commons, next generation cognitive neuroscience, American pragmatism, de/reconstruction, dynamic systems, embodied realism, postmetaphysics, psychodynamics, aesthetics. It ain't much but it's not nothing.

Robert Reich on Speaker Boehner's fallacies
See Reich's FB post here. Boehner says that money in politics doesn't have influence, that it's all about the competition of ideas. Reich shows though that Boehner is all rhetoric, since if the latter meant it then he should have no problem with full disclosure of campaign contributions, public financing of elections or a Constitutional Amendment to get money out of politics. But Boehner and the regressives are all against such measures. So it isn't just about the competition of ideas. They are liars and thieves.
