| Description: |
Bob Cesca is the author of the forthcoming book One Nation Under Fear -- a collection of blog-style essays which examine the politics of fear during the "dark ride" of the Bush years.
He's been a featured blogger for the Huffington Post since August, 2005. His blog posts appear on the front page above-the-fold every Wednesday (sometimes Thursday). Bob's Huffington Post entries are among the most popular on the site, averaging between 50,000-100,000 views each.
When he's not writing about politics, Bob is also a screenwriter, director and producer, and the founder of Camp Chaos, a new media production studio based near Philadelphia.
Bob grew up in Washington, DC and Northern Virginia. He graduated from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor's degree in Political Science with a concentration on the media and the American Presidency. Prior to Camp Chaos, Bob was a talk radio host, radio news reporter and freelance journalist.
Bob has written and produced hundreds of animated shorts as well as music videos for Iron Maiden, Meat Loaf, Everclear, Yes and Motley Crue. He's also the creator of the politically charged animated sketch show ILL-ustrated which aired for two seasons on VH1 and MTV2. His most recent animated project is Kung Fu Jimmy Chow.
In his spare time, Bob is a Civil War historian and a road cycling fan (he also rides 50-100 miles a week, but not very well).
Shortly after 9/11, Bob directed the award-winning independent feature film, The War Effort, a satirical documentary about the nation's post-9/11 knee-jerk patriotism. |

The White House Statement on the House Bill
Specifically, the public option section:
The Administration is pleased that the bill includes a public health insurance option offered in an exchange. As the President has said throughout this process, a public option that competes with private insurers is one of the best ways to ensure the choice and competition that are so badly needed in today’s market.
Why do they hate the public option?
It Begins
The wingnuts are trying to connect Hasan with the Obama administration.
I wish I was making this up.
WorldNetDaily falsely claimed that alleged Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan "advised Obama transition" in the headline of an article by Jerome Corsi highlighting his listing as a "participant" in a report for the Homeland Security Policy Institute at George Washington University's Presidential Transition Task Force.
Hasan is no more an advisor to the Obama administration than I am. Every blogger and political writer in the nation has penned missives advising the Oba
1937
Apparently the unemployment rate has breeched 10 percent. So it's probably not the time to be suggesting things like this:
"The government is going to have to get serious about reducing our debt levels."
That was President Obama the other day. The issue here is unemployment and the deficit can wait. What's needed now is more spending -- not less -- in order to drive job creation.
In 1937, Roosevelt focused on reducing the deficit and it stopped the economic recovery in its tracks. Fortunately, economic advisor Christina Romer kno
Morning Joe
Adding to John Cole's brilliant post here, I've been watching Morning Joe's cavalcade of concern trolling about the Democrats and healthcare reform this morning and wondering if they're deliberately ignoring the (teee-hehehe) Republican healthcare plan or have they not been told about how the CBO took a giant dump all over it?
Instead, they're hectoring Steny Hoyer about how healthcare reform is going to be a "tough sell" (it's not) while also repeatedly showing scenes from yesterday's Wingnuts on Parade show without mentioning the wackaloons who turned up with their violent, racist, boneheaded signs.
