Comedy Central Censorship: You Can Drop F-Bombs But Don’t You Dare Say The M-Word

No, the word is not Marriage. It’s Mohammed. And if you’re a show on Comedy Central, you’re safer being a vulgar Christ-phobe than being a mildly mocking Mohammed cartoon. From the New York Times: The new episode of “South Park” on Wednesday night tried to revisit this character, but with the name and depiction of […]

 


Geico Dude Talks To A Blog Reader; Also, Geico Dude Gets Himself Fired

Wrote about this before. I guess the super-incisive voice of Geico has become a product liability. From Dave Weigel: Today, Douglas reports he’s been dropped from Geico’s campaign. His dramatic news release is here; he claims to have been motivated by “the recent gay and racial slurs slung by Tea Party members at Congressman Barney […]

 

Abortion, Again: Do Babies Feel Pain?

Nebraska heats this topic up again. Embarrassed about being the late-term abortion capital of the United States, Nebraska changed the law: Can an unborn child feel pain?

Why Would Dems Worry About 2012 If Their Policies Are So Popular?

Remember when Democrats opined that Americans would love health care reform once it passed? Remember how Republicans wondered why in the world Democrats were so content to commit political suicide given the Scott Brown victory? Evidently, all is not well and so incumbent Dems are hoarding cash–not for the impending climate apocalypse–for the impending electoral […]

More Jobless Claims: Obama Administration & Press [But That’s Redundant] Flummoxed By “Unexpected” Economic News

Okay, I might have made up that last part. It’s true, though, the jobless claims have gone up again. My prediction? They’ll continue to go up for a while, unfortunately. If gas prices inflate (and they will), costs to employers inflate across the board. Makes it tough to hire more people. Here’s the deal: In […]

 

The Geico Guy Goes Psycho: Calls Freedom Works And Tea Partiers “Mentally Retarded”

Dude. He’s a voice actor aka an actor, which is nearly automatically a sign of instability, but really, a recorded phone call? How stupid can you be? Wouldn’t a person want to hide their identity when making a politically incorrect call? Not if you’re a liberal. Go to Big Government to listen.

 

Obama Disrespects The Press, Not That There’s Anything Wrong With That

Why should President Obama respect the press? He knows they will do his bidding anyway.

Congress’ Health Care Oversight May Hurt Their Own Coverage?

Has a group ever more richly deserved this irony?

For example, it says, the law may “remove members of Congress and Congressional staff” from […]

 


What Was Wrong At The Southern Republican Leadership Conference?

What a weird conference. There. I said it. The Tea Party received the biggest cheers. The Republicans bashed their own party. Attendees were optimistic and cheerful. Politicians were purposeful and focused on 2010–a marked shift from the usual perspectives at SRLC which has been a conference that gives voters a first look at potential Presidential […]

 

Rick Perry Gives A Barn Burner At Southern Republican Leader

It sure seems like Rick Perry is running for President, or better yet, Vice President. He gave an enthusiastic speech that roused the crowd in a major way. Part of the reason I came to the Southern Republican Leadership Council is to see Sarah Palin alongside other candidates and good political speakers. She introduced Perry […]

 

Arlen Specter: It’s Tough Being A Turncoat

Sarah Palin: People Need To Stop Saying There’s No Way She’ll Do…..

The only thing predictable about Sarah Palin: The revulsion she inspires by those “in the know”. The whole schtick is tiresome. For months, now, Palin’s demise has been foretold in ominous tones and what amounts to cluck-clucking church gossip. Sarah Palin is still here. And she’s going to be around. And she can run in […]

 


RNC Chairman Steele: It’s Partly Racism

RNC Chairman says the attacks he’s receiving are partly racism and that blacks have a smaller margin of error. I’d say that’s true for some few people, just as it’s true for some small segments who have disliked Obama from the beginning. Mostly though, it’s sore-loserism and establishment-ism and power-ism. You know, those “isms” that […]

Relationships are difficult. I’m here to help. Here’s some words of wisdom to keep your relationship from turning dull and boring: 1. Keep the mystery alive—Too many people reveal too much too often.

Bad Numbers For Bad Democrats

Rasmussen’s recent poll should concern Democrats–if they hadn’t already enacted the single most transformational piece of legislation ever knowing full well that the American people hated it. But they made that decision knowing full well that their futures hung in the balance. Or maybe they didn’t care about the future because they had some other […]

 



Podcast: Redemption and Derision

The story of enslavement to freedom is inherent in the Judeo-Christian culture. During this week where emancipation–being freed from slave owners and ultimately our own limitations–is a central focus, it was fitting, then, for Iris Blue to join me. She spent months in “the hole” in a Harris County (Houston) jail. She suffered addiction to […]
