I am not a violent man. In fact, I’m quite docile. But it’s a low-key Friday night and I’m staying in and watching last night’s episode of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on the DVR. The opening segment is about Glenn Beck — and it’s got me riled up. I’ve never really wished [...]

The oil spill in the Gulf has been stopped, at least for now. That’s a good thing. And I understand it’s a terrible environmental disaster. Shrimp, fish, and other aquatic animals we can’t see, are probably devastated. But more often than not, the coverage on CNN is of oil-soaked birds either dead [...]  There Will Be Blood is one of my favorite movies to have come out in the last few years. I’ve watched it three times and come away with a different take each time I watch. It’s a complex epic, but the basic premise? An early 20th century oil man will stop at nothing to [...]  It’s been too long since I’ve harassed Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, and their conservative nutjob friends. Today is the day I make up for that: I have nothing against women in politics. Just Palin. I think she knows nothing and couldn’t be more unfit to lead anything, especially the most powerful country in [...]  I don’t know the story behind this picture. I don’t really care. The guy is watching Glenn Beck while surrounded by a huge cache of guns all while draped in an American Flag, so it perpetuates all the stereotypes I’m looking for. That’s good enough to make it on this blog. Or maybe he’s [...]  I always find too many informative political and economic articles to share, so I’ll select a few and throw them all in to one post of important stuff you should read to get your week started: 1. Maybe we shouldn’t be blaming our leaders for not being able to lead: A thought-provoking read from [...] I haven’t heard anything about Pat Robertson joining Fox News, but after comments like he made yesterday, there’s a solid chance they’ll try to sign him to the standard Nut Job Commentator contract. On his Christian Broadcasting Network show yesterday, Rev. Pat Robertson said that the nation of Haiti has been devastated by a [...] A big thanks to Rachel who sent me this report from the Miami Herald: Sarah Palin, who regularly rips the media, is becoming a television pundit at a place where she’s likely to feel at home. A Fox News executive says the network will shortly announce that the former vice-presidential nominee is signing on [...] I haven’t gotten a good Fox News bashing in lately. O’Reilly makes my job easy today: ‘We Can’t Kill All The Muslims… So We Wanna Win As Many Hearts And Minds As We Can’ Really, Bill? That’s what you’re going with? I don’t even know where to begin with that, so I [...] |
