481 [lbo-talk] RE: Johnny Got His Gun: an excerpt -- rank: 270

I remember reading this great book when I was in high school. It's still powerful. A shame Trumbo didn't write more novels. His prose is beautifully streamlined, not a wasted word, and every word just right. The writing of Ring Lardner Jr, another lefty from the same era, has ...

Surely our most cunning strategy yet for preventing people from getting health care, huh. ;-) Nonetheless, the annoying, bland, hokey communications style of seiu goes on. When oh when will the communications department at the international be subject to the type of ruthless purge that would be meted out to any organizer ...

Yeah, I'm with you. I do think that you may have a -tad- underestimated how difficult it will be to win it, but our position is for universal hc. But until we win it, the goal is to expand the number of people who have hc; by winning it in ...

485 [lbo-talk] how black does Obama want to be? -- rank: 270

The best part of this story is the prospect that Rev. Al might get into the 2008 Presidential race. He'll be a terrific counterbalance to the "centrism" that most of the other candidates are likely to embrace, and he'll get some meaningful issues out on the table. He thinks ...

487 [lbo-talk] RE: The Movies (was Oscars) -- rank: 270

Regarding Carl's remarks: I beg to differ. Movies remain the best entertainment bargain around in terms of value for money. Yeah, there's a lot of crap, but plenty of good stuff too, including mass market Hollywood flicks. 2005 was a terrific year for movies. Except for "Good Night & Good ...
