TMZ.COM is running a very peculiar picture: In case it’s not too clear, that’s SUPPOSEDLY John F. Kennedy chillaxin while FOUR, count em, FOUR, babes frolicking naked. Cool huh? Well, under some circumstances it would most definitely be. However, SUPPOSEDLY, at this time, his wife was in the hospital struggling to deliver a still-born baby. [...]

President Obama won a Nobel Peace Prize. Although some are scratching their heads over why, I’m not. It’s quite obvious and the Nobel peeps even said why: “for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples” Some were somewhat dubious of his accomplishments: “Frankly to be nominated after he has been in [...]

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed doesn’t particularly like being a prisoner in Guantanamo. Call it Gitmo if you wish. For about eight years, he had tons of supporters that didn’t want him in Gitmo either. Problem was, once Bush was out of office and Obama said he’d close it down, everyone forgot all about Gitmo. Once forgotten [...]

Jimmy Carter, who blamed the most horrid economic policies in US history on the general public, has generally been a malaise since then. About once or twice a year, he takes jabs at the United States. I’m not sure if he’s had anything nice or relevant to say in the last thirty years. But, he’s [...]

Ever read one of those posts that just puzzles you? I do that all the time. Kinda like sitting in a chair that’s about to tilt over. Sometimes it’s fun, sometimes it hurts. I was reading a post by Andrew Pavelyev in The New Majority and got that feeling. He meanders until he reaches his [...]

This is becoming somewhat of a routine it seems: GM said it will nearly exhaust its cash cushion by year’s end, leaving barely enough for day-to-day operations through the first half of 2009. It said it has ended merger talks with Chrysler, delayed future product plans and cut benefits. But it said those measures may [...]

The gall and stupidity of Nancy Pelosi never ceases to amaze me. Today, with arguably the economic welfare of the United States on the line, and for that matter, several other countries of the world, Nancy Pelosi assured the world an agreement to bail out the struggling spec market was at hand. She’d have it [...]

If you’re going to debate this current financial market crisis or criticize the efforts to mitigate it, you HAVE to read this article by Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters.org: …The Carter-era Community Reinvestment Act forced banks to lend to uncreditworthy borrowers, mostly in minority areas. Age-old standards of banking prudence got thrown out the window. In [...]

Now, I don’t believe that to be necessarily true, I just can’t find one I think is terribly smart. Today’s example is Thom Hartmann. In 2005, he tried convincing people that Jimmy Carter tried to prevent the Bush Energy Disasters – 28 years ago. Now, the reason he states this is because Jimmy gave a [...]

“We’ve been down this road before. It’s the road that George Bush has taken for the last eight years,” Obama said. And: “The Bush economy is like a trap door — Too many people are one pink slip away, one missed mortgage payment away, one medical diagnosis away from falling through and losing everything,” Clinton [...]
