VOTED FOR ME OR I'L KILL YOU

VOTE FOR ME OR I'LL KILL YOU VIDEO

Thank you Alan Dershowitz

“What a load of nonsense,” Schumer said as he addressed reporters. “By Dershowitz’s logic, President Nixon did nothing wrong in Watergate. He was just breaking into the [Democratic National Committee] to help his reelection, which of course in the public interest, according to Dershowitzian logic.”

“The Dershowitz argument frankly would unleash a monster, more aptly it would unleash a monarch,” Schumer added.

Video and music by Jerome and Denis Lefdup, lyrics and performance by Norman Spinrad

Originally part of HOME ON THE PAGE, video and live stage show, and a DVD back in the day. A little dated maybe, but Jerome has done a fabulous 3D remake and politics being how they have become right now, I just couldn't resist

EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS SEE THE LIGHT?

EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS SEE THE LIGHT? Read it on Christianity Today:                      by Marc Galli In our founding documents, Billy Graham explains that  Christianity Today  will help evangelical Christians interpret the news in a manner that reflects their faith. The impeachment of Donald Trump is a significant event in the story of our republic. It requires comment. The typical CT approach is to stay above the fray and allow Christians with different political convictions to make their arguments in the public square, to encourage all to pursue justice according to their convictions and treat their political opposition as charitably as possible. We want CT to be a place that welcomes Christians from across the political spectrum, and reminds everyone that politics is not the end and purpose of our being. We take pride in the fact, for instance, that politics does not dominate our homepage. That said, we do...

THE 21ST CENTURY SHAMAN

        THE 21ST CENTURY SHAMAN                          Alternate Medicines and the Scientific Method                     by  Norman Spinrad           Written   over a decade ago as a proposal for a book that never got written  but all too pertinent  to the era of the coronavirus                     There are many medical systems on this planet, some of them ancient, some of them new, more of them that not based on metaphorical systems. Only “Western” or “alliopathic” medicine is based on rigorous science.  But many of the traditional non-western systems cure some conditions cure some conditions but not others. Many of these cures work in practice, but not in theory. That is they do work, but not for the reasons the theory behind them conte...

           ELECT YOUR PEOPLE'S POLICE                            by Norman Spinrad If something isn't done, and done fast, a civil war in the United States is just a shot or a Molotov Cocktail away. But how and by who?   If there is one American who could stand up before the protesters and be listened to it is surely the one and only former President of the United States, Barack Obama. Live before the largest crowd possible and of course well televised.  What should he say? He should speak the hard truth to the leaderless protesters that what they are doing is counterproductive to their own confusion of diverse and general causes which if even possible would take decades of legislation to accomplish. What is needed  immediately is a strong significant and reachable demand. Demand that the head of all police departments in the United States--cities, towns, st...

                                   QUARANTINE                               by Norman Spinrad  If it wasn’t the best of times, at least it wasn’t the worst of times, or something like that, which is the opening line of a novel called A TALE OF TWO CITIES, and it seemed like this would be only a tale of one. Back in the day before the Quarantine, Manhattan island was the heart and soul and pocketbook of New York City, to the extent that New York could have been said to have all three, Wall Street, Greenwich Village, Broadway and 42nd Street, and all that jazz. When you saw a movie or a TV show or an ad featuring New York, the Big Apple was Manhattan, not anything in what some visiting Californian must have dubbed the “Outer Boroughs,” the moral equivalent of Anaheim or Eagle Rock as far as a Hollywood wise guy was ...

THE SLOW DEATH OF THE ENGLISH SHORT STORY

Here is another freebie short story, A GAME OF TELEPHONE.  I just had the impulse to write it without thinking where to submit it. There seem to be only 3, science fiction magazines left, a couple of crime magazines, and The New Yorker. The only offline paper magazines regularly publishing short stories of any kind.  And what I had written  just for the fun of it was not science fiction or fantasy or a crime story. So I had no choice but to submit it to The New Yorker, not really believing they would buy it, which they didn't. So there was no place left to send it, and I let it lay until I got the idea of posting stories on  NORMAN SPINRAD AT LARGE as free one time non exclusive gifts, if you can sell a story to a magazine that counts because so few are left, let it at least let be read here while not giving away first exclusive publishing rights.  So here it is.  Reading it again, I réalise it would make very cool half-hour radio play.  But alas, t...

Story of the week--THE MUSIC OF THE SPHERE ---more or less once a week I'll post a freebie story here on NORMAN SPINRAD AT LARGE---one time non-exclusive reprint rights only

For decades I tried to write a story from the viewpoints of dolphins or whales and failed. For decades people have tried to speak to dolphins in their own language and failed. This story, first published in Asimov's Magazine , is about why. Dolphins and whales don't have languages because they don't need them. They've got something much better.                             THE MUSIC OF THE SPHERE                                            by Norman Spinrad In the 1960s there was a band called Blue Cheer whose claim to be the loudest rock and roll band on the planet went unchallenged.  They would play in intimate club venues standing right in front of the same monster speakers used in stadiums.  They were so loud that many aficionados of their recorded music fled in physically agony fro...
