Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Finally, a moment of candor
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2007/09/finally-moment-of-candor.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Tuesday, September 04, 2007. Finally, a moment of candor. The cable news punditry, or Chris Matthews, at least, is all abuzz today about a new Junior Bush biography due out soon. The book, entitled Dead Certain. Is authored by Robert Draper, a journalist in the employ of GQ Magazine. While I won't be reading the book, indications are that it is not exactly a hagiography like Bob Woodward's Bush at War. And I don't even like you.). But, what I don't understand is how an...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Sit down, bigot!
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2010/08/sit-down-bigot.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Monday, August 23, 2010. Sit down, bigot! Disgraceful, ignorant bigots. If anything has become apparent in the wake of the ridiculous faux debate over the construction of a Muslim cultural center at Park 51 in Manhattan. It is this: if we value our Constitution we must now demand that the center be built, as planned, on the proposed site. When rank hypocrites like Newt Gingrich. Start suggesting that we amend the Constitution. Passions running high through the dog days.

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: City perks
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2013/05/city-perks.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Thursday, May 30, 2013. Living in the city. Last night, the Portland Timbers hosted the Wilmington Hammerheads of North Carolina. It so happened that some of my season-ticket holding friends had tickets they couldn't use. This windfall development resulted in Maty and I and our sister, Nadia, hopping the #14 bus bound for Jeld-Wen Field on an unseasonably cool May evening. There was a hubbub. Me and my honey. Soon the three of them were going back and forth while I, wi...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: More proof that the Iraq War is a lie (as if we needed any)
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2008/08/more-proof-that-iraq-war-is-lie-as-if.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Wednesday, August 06, 2008. More proof that the Iraq War is a lie (as if we needed any). What does it say about the condition of this country that a bombshell. Like the one that Ron Suskind recently dropped about the Bush administration's case for war is not front page bold-type news? What does it say about the condition of this country that for many Americans, this news is just confirmation of what they have believed all along. Is an honorable man. A special assignmen...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Breaking news: Junior has regrets!
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2008/10/breaking-news-junior-has-regrets.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Thursday, November 13, 2008. Breaking news: Junior has regrets! On Tuesday, in an interview with CNN, Junior Bush, who is arguably one of the most despised and hated men in the world, admitted to having " regrets. The admission struck me like a thunderbolt. Could Junior actually regret that he is placed at the forefront of an illegal invasion. Of a sovereign nation that resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths? For torture of detainees? He elaborated, somewhat, sayi...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Message from a dying Iraq veteran
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2013/03/message-from-dying-iraq-veteran.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Friday, March 22, 2013. Message from a dying Iraq veteran. Yuck it up, pigs. It's been 10 years since Junior Bush and his filthy band of blackguards and hypocrites launched their war of greed and aggression. Tomas Young, an Iraq War veteran who has decided to end his life (he receives medicine and nourishment from a feeding tube) has penned a final letter to the evil cadre that even now enjoys the lucre it gained from its crimes at the price of his life. I am not a Chr...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: She is wise
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2011/04/she-is-wise.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Saturday, April 30, 2011. In new-fallen darkness, who first gains her sight? She is wise. She is wise. She is wiser than I. Who stands on the high ground, try though I might? She is wiser, much wiser than I. Wounded by insult, whom do I seek? She is wise. She is wise. She is wiser than I. When wavered by doubt, won't let me be weak? She is wiser, much wiser than I. Labels: Raison dêtre: Family and friends. May 5, 2011 at 10:22 AM. Wonderful and loving. She is lucky.

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Election 2014: Oregon provides the silver lining
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2014/11/election-2014-oregon-provides-silver.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Wednesday, November 05, 2014. Election 2014: Oregon provides the silver lining. Democrats nationwide are in the doldrums today. And for good reason. The GOP increased its majority in the US House, won some big gubernatorial races, and, biggest of all, won the majority in the US Senate! Now we can all look forward to evenings with Mitch McConnell. S palid, corpse-like visage on the telly, spewing forth more bile and deception. The Beaver state shattered the Big Red Wave.

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: A hill and a valley and a stream with trees along it
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2011/03/hill-and-valley-and-stream-with-trees.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Tuesday, March 01, 2011. A hill and a valley and a stream with trees along it. A third Thing to think about. From For Whom the Bell Tolls. In this passage, we read the thoughts of El Sordo, a guerrillero. It is interesting to examine how El Sordo defines "living." It is "a hawk in the sky," "an earthen jar of water," "a hill and a valley and a stream with trees along it." In the eyes of some, these things he names, these things that are "living," might seem mun...Perha...
