It’s only been two years, but now, finally, the political season is finally really getting started! The Olympics are over. School is back in session. People are beginning to pay attention. The Democrats have chosen Joe Biden as their VP. (The Republicans have chosen Mitt Romney as their VP, but they’re going to hold off [...]
This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. It’s a photo gallery of disgusting school lunches. My favorite is the taco patty. Gross! Here is a great Farm to School program you can support if the gallery has spurred you to act!

RE: Goals for 2008 Pinko Democratic National Convention Coverage
Saturday August 23, 2008
Dear Ben,
We know you will be in Denver all week, and that you will be there with a press credential and everything. Pinko has come so far! Although it may be hard for you to post, this [...]
I got a press release from the Republican National Committee about one of the single biggest issues facing America today: The design and construction of the podium where John McCain will accidentally fall asleep give his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention. Not kidding here! I got a press release. About a podium. A [...]

If I get the chance I have a much longer piece I want to write about this, but I’ve become really fascinated by Mayor Bloombergs stubborn determination to make really bold gestures around sustainability. This week he proposed this plan that would put windmills on major city skyscrapers, on some bridges, landmarks, and possibly in [...]
So much for McJoe-mentum. Time’s Mark Halperin says it’s McMittens 08.
Update: Mittens, in non-junkie speak, is former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. He wears funny underpants.
What a great little item from yesterday. The City of New York finally settled a lawsuit over a 2003 incident where the NYPD rounded up 52 protesters who were demonstrating against the (then) impending War in Iraq:
They were charged with blocking pedestrians, but videotapes show that at their most annoying, they might have slowed [...]
Paul Hogarth, frequent commenter and longtime friend of Pinkomag, has a new article over at The Huffington Post that could easily be a counterpoint to my “Oh Shit We’re PWNED!” article from yesterday.
One of his arguments is that while McCain has hammered away a Obama during the summer duldrums, Obama’s fund raising edge and superior [...]
How many houses do you own?
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said in an interview Wednesday that he was uncertain how many houses he and his wife, Cindy, own. “I think — I’ll have my staff get to you,” McCain told Politico in Las Cruces, N.M. “It’s condominiums where — I’ll have them get to you.”
