Democracy Burlesque: The Blog
A companion ... okay, more like bastard stepchild ... to the Chicago-based Monthly Political Cabaret/Happening/Revue/Variety Show for liberal and progressive activists, artists, and sympathizers.

Comedy: Kicking Power In The Junk
Fascinating post about the nature of comedy and politics -- in reaction to the unctuous FOX NEWS "comedy" series THE 1/2 HOUR COMEDY HOUR. This is a semi-obscure blog that I know of because my former roommate and former classmate of Sandy and myself is quoted extensively in this post and in this blog. I think it's rather interesting. Or maybe I just like "Kicking Power In The Junk" as a potential tag line for DB. Sorry ladies.
Anyway, hit or copy-and-paste the link and discuss in the "comments" section, which everyone is allowed to do.

February 27 - THE DALEY SHOW
Season Two starts on Chicago Election Night. Follow the polls and follow the pols at the No Exit Cafe. This month, featuring the tuba-istic stylings of Aaron Phillips, the poetry of Dan Carroll, and more inanity from THE ACTORS OF EVIL, now featuring our new music-and-dance troupe, THE POINTY-HEADED LIBERALS.
Maybe. If you like it. We're nothing if not needy.
Details at the web site. Enjoy!

(FFFFFFFFOOOF!)
Just blowing the dust off this thing to see if it works.
The Democracy Burlesque show in February is on Chicago politics. The discussion on the other blogs is mostly on the Republicans blocking an attempt to even debate, much less vote on, stopping the insanity in Iraq. In short, work continues on bringing democracy to all parts of America on a cold winter's day.
Looks like it's time for some silliness.
We're here to oblige.
(Just so long as this thing keeps running in subzero weather ... need to drive it a bit more ...)
