545 People

I love Snopes.com.  No telling what you’ll find there.  Humor, movies, sports, paranormal, extra-terrestrial, politics, you name it, it’s there.  One of today’s stories involve an opinion piece written by Charley Reese in 1985. Politicians, as I have often said, are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. [...]

What’s the problem with a sexy mayor?

January 19th, 2008 | No Comments

A lot is being made over this:   I can see why.  SOME folks in Arlington are saying they don’t think this represents their community.  The question I have is, why not?  Mayor Carmen is obviously very fit and healthy.  That folks, is a good thing.  The image I’m getting is folks in Arlington, OR, [...]

Banning saggy pants

December 11th, 2007 | No Comments

Here’s the headline: The Atlanta school board voted unanimously Monday night to ban students from wearing sagging pants that expose underwear — a youthful fashion statement deemed to defy classroom decorum. Here’s the reality: Although a fashion “statement” for the last twenty years or so, they look stupid.  They make the wearer look even more [...]

Help sue the Westboro Church

October 27th, 2007 | 2 Comments

I have written a few times about Westboro Church.  They are disgusting and abusing religion in the worst possible way.  Well, one father of a slain soldier has had enough.  Albert Snyder, father of Matthew Snyder, is suing Westboro for disrupting his son’s funeral.  I am 100% in support of Albert’s lawsuit.  However, he’s an [...]

Barry Manilow takes a stand

September 18th, 2007 | No Comments

Apparently Barry Manilow decided to take a stand.  He will NOT perform on the same stage as Elisabeth Hasselbeck.  Apparently he’s afraid he will suffer the same fate as Rosie.  I find this tactic kind of strange considering he performed before Hasselbeck twice last year.  He apparently stated something to the effect he felt Hasselbeck [...]

Whoopi doesn’t seem to think much of the South

September 5th, 2007 | No Comments

Whoopi Goldberg replaced Rosie Odonnell on The View.  Rosie being gone is a good thing because Rosie seemed to rely on rhetoric, stupidity, and generalizations as a basis for most of “the views”.  However, Whoopi’s been known to drop some stupid bombs of her own in the past.  Apparently not much has changed by replacing [...]

Jerry Falwell

May 17th, 2007 | No Comments

I wasn’t going to say anything about Falwell’s passing, but feel remiss for not. So, I’m gonna tackle it as best I can. I have never been a fan of Falwell’s. Ever. When I was a small kid and he was on television, I either laughed at how inane he was, or just turned it [...]

Children See, Children Do

May 9th, 2007 | No Comments

In most other countries, they don’t pander to political correctness quite the way we do here. Here is a perfect example of that: This video was produced by the National Association for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect in Australia. It’s shocking, it’s unnerving. And, it’s accurate.

Never trust a politician offering favors

March 16th, 2007 | 1 Comment

My buddies at Independent Sources took offense, sorta, upon stumbling upon this article: Joe Redner, whos in a runoff for a city council seat, is offering free admission to his World Famous Mons Venus strip club when patrons show their I voted sticker at the door. The cover charge is usually $20. There is a [...]

Support the border agent families

January 31st, 2007 | 1 Comment

The families of Ignacio Ramos and Jose Campean are in need of financial and emotional support due to their incarceration.  I’m still a bit at a loss as to why these guys are even in prison, much less why President Bush has allowed this situation to continue.  Grassfire.org is coordinating a fundraiser for the Ramos [...]
