Richard Lakin, who watches our show, writes from far away:
I've been in Dubai for the past 3 weeks while the Romney campaign has been falling apart. Your iPhone app has been my only source of progressive media. Oh...and the messages that this falcon delivers.
Richard, thanks for the note, and we're glad you like the app. We've also got one for the iPad. But only you have the falcon.






If anyone knows the Native American definition of a falcon, it would be useful right now. My book doesn't contain that symbol. It looks like a Hawk or an eagle.
Nice! Am I entitled to one of those, please?
You gotta go see Maddow in the Movie 2016 in your local theaters.
Cool picture! Can that bird be used to fact check Ryan/Romney and be launched against them every time they decide to ignore the facts?
Mr. W.B. Yeats, on the Romney Campaign:
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
I am completely obsessed with birds.
Speaking of apps, would it be possible to have an Android version anytime soon? Feeling a little left out here. As I hope you know there are a lot of us Android users out there. And with Android you don't have to have separate phone and tablet versions.
Speaking of the iPad app, is there any hope of it being released on the Australian app store? I've been waiting since this initial announcement and it's just never made it. Help us poor xpats follow one of the few sane commentary programs!
