Moonage Political Webdream

Recently was sent this link: That’s my image, here’s Townhall’s link.  Since I was a young boy, I hated NPR.  They’ve had a lifelong history of dumbing down content.  If they were reporting a war, you heard incessant gun fire in the background.  The noises alone drove me away.  It just struck me that they [...]

I have to admit, I had never heard the term “birther” before. I don’t watch tv much, so I guess that’s why. Dictionary.com doesn’t have a clue what “birther” is either. So, whenever a word is used I don’t know and dictionary.com doesn’t either, I go to urbandictionary.com. They of course have it. According to [...]

I just did a little piece about how media was going the way of National Enquirer.  Now, I was somewhat limited in my disdain since I was relying on the internet for my news.  Apparently, the sexual innuendo wasn’t limited to the internet.  Anderson Cooper had this to say about yesterday’s demonstrations: “It’s hard to [...]

OK, so we got a tv station owner in Buffalo, NY.  He’s got a beautiful wife.  For reasons I’m not aware of, the tv station owner decides things are not good between them and therefore cuts her head off at the station. Now, this is juicy stuff that makes for a made-for-tc movie and endless [...]

A lot has been made of Barack Obama inviting Rick Warren to give an invocation at his inauguration.  A lot of people are upset.  I’m not.  This really isn’t much of an issue that affects my day to day life.   What I have enjoyed is watching people who advocate various political policies squirm.  The left [...]

That’s the argument being made today after the collapse of the Big Three bailout.  For the record, it came because UAW refused to bargain. Now, this argument is so bogus it’s amazing.  People are actually debating this issue as if it’s fact.  One of the states being singled out is Kentucky because of Mitch McConnell.  [...]

I read an article by Marie Cocco of the Washington Post in RealClearPolitics.  it just confounds me.  Per Marie: Unions aren’t the problem. They are the solution. ….. Creating a viable middle class has been the goal of organized labor since labor first became organized. And it is this goal that was abandoned outright by [...]

This is precious. Immediately after the election, a few networks ran with the story that McCain campaign workers were claiming that Sarah Palin did not know Africa was a continent, among other ludicrous claims.  Turns out, MSMBC’s source for the claim was one Martin Eisenstadt. Turns out, Martin Eisenstadt isn’t real.  He’s a fictional character. [...]

Some media are having a difficult time reacting to the charges by McCain that they are completely and unashamedly pushing their candidate.  They have discussed it, they have debated, and some to a small degree, have admitted it.  If one has any doubts at all, all they need to is go to CNN’s front page [...]

Been out of action for a few days.  Decided to take a mini-vacation.  Came back to this side-splitting “headline”: Palin expands character attacks Her “character attacks” are mentioning people Obama has hung out with that just don’t look so good now that he’s running for president. In my world, a “character attack” is attacking one’s [...]
