Today I’m reading the latest news and I trip over a story about one of the current cases before the Supreme Court—The City of Ontario vs. Quon. The main thrust of the case is to determine the privacy rights of employees when they’re using company-provided equipment like cell phones and pagers. The case involves Sergeant […]
The listeners and viewers of the various right-wing shows are being duped. It’s just that blatantly obvious. Yes, I know. You think what these people are telling you sounds so simple and so right. That’s only because you share a similar viewpoint and these sources know it and are exploiting you. Today Sean Hannity and […]
I’ve had it with this guy. I’m tired of people making excuses for this cheerleader who just makes up things as he goes along and then manages to get countless people to buy into his completely incorrect misinformation as fact. Take, for example, a single segment taken from his “Freedom Tour” on his first stop […]
On February 21, 2009 an 11 year-old boy took a shotgun, put it to the back of the head of his father’s pregnant fiancée, and pulled the trigger killing her. The details of the case are about as gruesome as they come. The child was apparently jealous of all the attention she was getting and […]
In appearance humble artist ace, cast alternatively as both ass and aggressor by the activities of fate. This appearance, no mere aspect of arrogance, is an aura of the accorded now abandoned, absent. However, this audacious augur of a bygone annoyance stands animated, and has agreed to assasinate these augean and acrid assailants, avant-garding abberation […]
I’ve decide that Democrats should take the high ground on the health care reform bill and agree to repeal several elements of it. The Dems should hold a major press conference and announce that they’re dropping all of the following items from the bill to address the most grievous complaints of Americans: 1. The death […]
So last night I’m watching TV and I decide to check all three cable news networks to see what each one is saying about the health care reform situation. Of course the most fun was watching Fox News. At the time I checked in Glenn Beck was on and I’m more assured at every viewing […]
I got up this morning which, generally, wouldn’t be a big deal except that Representative John Boehner said that if this health care thing got passed it would mean Armageddon (along with twice saying it’s an apocalypse). As I noted previously a large number of so-called experts told every conservative that would listen that health […]
At the beginning of the month I posted a minority viewpoint regarding my support for wacky Senator Jim Bunning and his protest against extending unemployment benefits yet again. I heard from several people about my opinion and it included lots of “not me” comments. I do understand the perspective having been down that path before. […]
I wanted to remind all of you out there that support the conservative punditry, that should healthcare reform pass today, then it would be in direct contradiction to what nearly all the various conservative outlets and pundits claimed. Time and again, from all corners of conservatism, I’ve heard nearly every pundit declare healthcare reform dead. […]
A funny thing happened while I was catching a bit of Glenn Beck‘s Fox News show last night. As usual Beck was going on about the horrifying, permanently damaging, mind-altering nefarious plots of the evil Left Empire. However, on this night it was a bit different. The imagery was more haunting. The verbiage was more […]
Karl Rove is affectionately and pointedly referred to as “The Architect” whenever he appears on Fox News and most other outlets (though he rarely leaves the safety of Fox). The continual fawning over this guy that’s done by virtually anyone on Fox is a complete joke. Nothing about this man is balanced. He’s treated as […]
