Only in America: Competing (Satirical) Political Rallies

Posted on September 17, 2010 by kwilder

Kimberly writes: LOL! I love this stuff. Political comedian Jon Stewart has announced that he is holding an October 30, 2010 rally in D.C. called “Rally to Restore Sanity”. And, Stephen Colbert (on the same network), announced a competing rally! And, I am thinking that these rallies might be more interesting and/or effective than the […]

Sunday: Some thoughts on the Power Shift conference in DC

Posted on March 1, 2009 by kwilder

So, I am observing from afar the Power Shift conference in DC with hopefulness and some healthy skepticism. I am thankful that 12,ooo or so young people cared enough about something political and environmental to show up. (So many times, among my progressive colleagues, we find ourselves saying “Where are the young people?”.) I am […]

Obama children did not go to church service

Posted on January 20, 2009 by iwilder

[This is odds and ends coverage from live blogging about the Inauguration…] The Obama children – Sasha and Malia – did not go to the Inauguration Day Prayer Service/Church Service.
