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 [...] (A “thanks” to my dad for bringing my attention to this article. Finally sent a good story. Though, Elton John singing at Rush Limbaugh’s most recent wedding was close to making the cut…) - – – – – – – – – – – - I guess, by comparison, Hispanics in Arizona don’t have [...] By now, everyone has heard of and/or seen the 17-year old kid getting the raw end of a taser for running onto the field during the Philadelphia Phillies game earlier this week. Apparently TheGreatWahl.com has gained quite a reputation for hating on Philly, because I have so far gotten no less than 14 emails, [...]  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 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 [...]  It’s been a while since I’ve posted my full weekly NFL preview column on here. But it’s the Super Bowl, so I figure I might as well go out of the football season with one last big push. I have some recap stuff to get to once the season is completely over, and I [...] 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 [...] This one is pretty self-explanatory: A Costco in Utah took tomatoes off the shelves during a visit by Sarah Palin, after someone threw tomatoes at the Alaska Governor (and missed) on a stop at the Mall of America. Via Harpers, the Salt Lake Tribune reports: Rappaport stopped at the Salt Lake City Costco to [...] |
