Nader’s got a wicked sense of humor.

Then again, he’d *have* to have one to keep working his tail off for the rights of uninformed boobs who have no clue of how much he’s done for them in the last 40 years.

I enjoyed this story more when I read it in the Politico back in September.

Ralph can be extremely funny sometimes. His witty sense of humor is often lost in the angry political frays he gets involved in.

Too bad there wasn’t a three-way tie – the cheap-ass Lerner family, Danny “Punky” Snider, & Abe Pollin.
DC pro sports stink. Nats stink, “Redskins” stink, & “Wizards” aka BULLETS all stink big time.
The Lerners are just cheap bastards, even though they got a $611 million welfare payment [aka the new stadium] the DC taxpayers gave them to sue]. Snider – he couldn’t even win in a fantasy league; he’s just stupid. Abe – his time passed about 30 years ago, & after kicking Michael Jordon to the curb, he’s just become even more daft. Anyone who gives zillions of dollars to Gilbert Arenas needs to have his head examined.
The Capitals are fairly good, but hockey’s just not a big-time sport in the US of A. DC United stinks, but soccer is even less big-time than hockey. & women’s soccer will be back – maybe – still time to cancel the season like the Arena Football League just did.

When you explain why you ignore the racist name- Washington Redskins- or why college players who generate millions for their institutions are treated as slave labor, I’ll take your blog seriously. P.S. I’ve treated both of these subjects in Counterpunch, but you cover
the place where the first African-American President in history will soon govern. Must Obama speak to these subjects, before you notice them?
