Last Call!
With any luck, we’ll finally be able to delete the (uncorrected) “With Mitt” app from our iPhone after tonight. Find out whether we’re stuck with it when our Election 2012 Stinquetacular! convenes at 6pm ET.
Such an iconic photograph.
It breaks my heart to see that mitten crap overlay.
Voter suppression seems to be working in Florida. Long, long lines and fewer voting locations plus very long ballot.
Thanks Gov. Scott.
@BobCens: Friend of mine turned me on to Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans some twenty years ago. Same friend who pointed out the lesser-known verses to “This Land is Your Land”.
@nojo:
One of my favorite lines from TLIYL:
“As I was walkin’ – I saw a sign there
And that sign said – no tress passin’
But on the other side …. it didn’t say nothin!
Now that side was made for you and me!”
@nojo: @nojo: Library of Congress photo archives has a bunch of Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange photos, including the above.
@karen marie still has her eyes tight shut: If memory serves, the Evans/Lange tour was a New Deal project, so the photos are all owned by The People. Not sure about the book.
Additional programming notice: Tonight’s live Daily Show/Colbert Report is also live on the Left Coast — 8pm PT.
@nojo: and live streaming on the interwebs, for those without cable or with alkie housemates.
