Hooligan: HUD, Me and Stokley Carmichael

Berin Szoka, the president of TechFreedom, quoted from Public Policy Hooligan this morn on Facebook: “There wasn’t a snowball’s chance in hell that AmeriCorps could upgrade apartments faster than HUD spawned fresh slums. If AmeriCorps recruits really wanted to do something useful, they should go burn down HUD headquarters.” – from Jim Bovard’s new book Public Policy Hooligan (channeling Jane Jacobs and… Stokely Carmichael?)

Actually, me and Stokley Carmichael go way back. He was the one that first introduced me to Raging Bitch beer.

      This blog is built with South African software, and I hear they’re partial to Raging Bitches.

        Could be, since it feels like I got necklaced on the previous post. I have a super-pithy comment to make, and it’s just sitting here festering in my head because I can’t ooze it onto your blog where it belongs!!!

          Oregon ooze is the best. Comment at will.

      And if you’re in Frederick, it is hard to beat Barley & Hops brewery/pub.
