It’s time for a new, and highly derivative, feature here at First Draft. I doubt if I’ll do this on a daily basis but this tweet from MSNBC’s Benjy Sarlincaught my eye: Remember: you can’t trust the government to collect grazing fees or run a website, but deciding who to kill and how is just fine — Benjy Sarlin (@BenjySarlin) April 30, 2014 Continue reading Tweet of the Day

I originally planned to write a Donald Sterling as malaka of the week post today. But since the new NBA Sheriff in town has banned him for life and is urging the owners to force him to sell, I decided to praise the new Commish instead. David Stern tolerated Sterling’s bigotry, slum lordism, and overall creepiness for 30 years so I’m pleased that Silver went nuclear. Is justice completely satisfied in this case? Of course not. In a just world, Sterling would not profit on the sale of his team but this is more than I expected so I’m a … Continue reading Adam Silver Is A Mensch
Mac Rebbenack was a journeyman musician when he created the persona of Dr. John, the Night Tripper. The character was based on a 19th century voodoo priest. It gave Mac the hook he needed to be noticed. This 1973 LP was his commercial breakthrough and was the time many of us, myself included, had ever heard of him. The cover painting was by James Flournoy Holmeswho did a bunch of album covers in the early 1970’s including Eat A Peach by the Allman Brothers. His cover for In The Right Place is peachy in its own way: Here’s the entire … Continue reading Album Cover Art Wednesday: In The Right Place
Lethal injection halted and inmate dies of heart attack: One execution stopped midcourse, another postponed. Oklahoma corrections officials looked for answers Tuesday following the death of inmate Clayton Lockett, who convulsed and writhed on the gurney after drugs to carry out his death sentence were administered. “His body started to twitch, he mumbled something I couldn’t understand,” said Dean Sanderford, his attorney. “The convulsing got worse, it looked like his whole upper body was trying to lift off the gurney. For a minute, there was chaos.” He said guards ordered him out of the witness area, and he was never … Continue reading We Don’t Deserve This
God, his nonsense is exhausting: Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Monday called on John Kerry to resign after the U.S. secretary of state privately told important world leaders that Israel could become “an apartheid state” if it doesn’t make peace with the Palestinians soon, as reported by The Daily Beast on Sunday. In a floor speech, Cruz accused his former Senate colleague of displaying a “shocking lack of sensitivity to the incendiary and damaging nature of his rhetoric.” “Mr. President, it is my belief that Secretary Kerry has thus proven himself unsuitable for his position and that before any further … Continue reading Ted Cruz Should Suck It

One thing that isn’t funny is the notion of Sarah Palin as Vice President; another is what she said at the conclave of gun nuts: “C’mon! Enemies who would utterly annihilate America, they would obviously have information on plots. They carry out jihad. Oh, but you can’t offend them. Can’t make them feel uncomfortable, not even a smidgen. Well, if I were in charge, they would know that waterboarding is how we baptize terrorists.” Two things just happened that you rarely see in my posts, and may reflect slipping standards. First, there’s an exclamation point in the quote but, much … Continue reading Quote Of The Day: Some Things Are Not Funny Edition
