    PZ for Pres., Bern as veep. Just because I wanna see him debate Palin with guitar in hand. As long as I can rely on PZ for some godless pro-pot agenda items of course!

    Not being from the USA, what does he have against Idaho and Cleveland? (See newspaper headlines at 5:16.)

    rant Had to sign in using my google account. Even though I’m registered with Typepad it won’t let me sign in without providing further information but it doesn’t give me any way to send such information. Have tried 5 times to register with Movable Type which tells me it has sent a confirmation email that I need to respond to. Said email never arrives. /rant

    So with the help of our Cuban brothers
    We’ll go communistic – collective farms!
    Capitalism is a fine thing
    If it works then great okay,
    But if it don’t, ya gotta try something else…

    Our esteemed host may have to change his subtitle for this blog. Endorsing such sentiments is a bit beyond the permissible scope for “a godless liberal“…

    Huh?

    Free market corporate capitalism as it is currently practiced in the so called western democracies is the system that has brought humanity to the brink of extinction.

    Either you’re in denial of reality or you’re part of the above mention establishment and are pushing its agenda.

    BTW communism is just as failed a paradigm as capitalism so don’t waste your time trying to convince me how lousy a system it is…

    I’d vote for him as long as national nude day is not compulsory. I’d prefer my nudity to be between me, my doctor, and an autopsy table.

    Hah! My favorite Dan Bern experience was about 14 years ago in Fargo, ND. He played a show at the (now defunct) 1st Avenue Lounge. At the end of No Missing Link, he climbed down from the stage with his guitar and led the entire bar outside. We paraded up and down Broadway singing “aliens came and fucked the monkey” until the police showed up and herded us back into the club.

    Lyrics to No Missing Link:

    They looked for the missing link
    There’s no missing link
    They’ll never find the missing link
    There’s no missing link
    We’re not something
    You can figure out with an equation
    We are the genetic mutation

    Aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey
    Aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey
    Aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey

    Darwin tried explaining it
    Darwin the best he could
    Evolution, pretty theory
    But how could Darwin know?

    That aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey
    Aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey

    How else explain fax machines?
    How else explain computer enhancement?
    How else explain fiber optics?
    How else explain Mozart?

    We do not belong here
    This planet was a terrarium
    Intergalactic broken home
    Have to go outer space
    And one day find our Daddy

    How else explain pay at the pump?
    How else explain limited access freeways?
    How else explain digital remastering?
    Plastic flowers, linoleum, beefalo, Michael Jordan?
    Religion?
    Astronomy?
    Astrology
    That looks to the stars

    We do not belong here
    This planet was a terrarium
    Seven billion bastards
    Screaming for our Daddy

    Aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey
    Aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey
    Aliens came and fucked the monkey
    They fucked the monkey
