Why would the Chinese do that?
Reading the NY Times Editorial this morning made me shake my head. China, which has abetted its neighbor’s excesses for too long, needs to ensure that the North’s bluster is only bluster. And it needs to tone down its own. via Editorial – North Korea’s Latest Tantrum – NYTimes.com. The North Korean government has successfully [...]
Weird how all these years and no Tea Party
But when Barack Obama get’s elected it’s “Save Us From Big Government!” Almost like there is another agenda or something. Share this: Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon Print
The SCOTUS handgun ruling
From the New York Time letter page. This is not my letter, but the sentiment is the same. To the Editor: Every year, millions of people across the United States willingly have their First Amendment rights to free speech and assembly restricted when local governments hand out permits for parades. The governments decide who can [...]
What would we do without political cartoons?
The second thing I look at on the NY Times website is the cartoons. Oh, now SCOTUS is concerned about rights. Good thing for Jeff Skilling this case didn’t involve someone being kidnapped and shipped overseas to be tortured. In addition to President Obama maintaining the worst of the previous administration, his Supreme Court nominee [...]
Jon Stewart is a comedian?
The Daily Show should be required viewing for anyone looking to get into public service. I do like and admire President Obama, but Jon Stewart’s video clip really highlights that all politicians lie. President Obama is getting a beating in the polls because of the BP oil spill. But where it really counts, we’re getting [...]
Tom Toles gets it right
Once again, Tom Toles nails it. I especially get a kick from Sarah Palin complaining and editorializing about President Obama. The oil spill is a mess, but instead of getting together and fixing it, the radical right is just trying to score cheap points. Share this: Reddit Facebook StumbleUpon Print
Arizona, where fear lives and becomes law
I’ve never been to Arizona and thanks to their new law, odds are I will never go. Yesterday Governor Jan Brewer signed into law a federal immigration bill to make it illegal for immigrants to not carry their papers. Yes, the states think they can pass federal immigration policy law and I guess they can. [...]
New Nike ad
Like most people (hopefully), I really don’t care about a golfer’s infidelities. I do feel sorry for his wife, just as I felt sorry for Hillary Clinton. But the stupid, selfish, narcissistic, self-destructive behavior of people in their private life is none of my business. I tune in to watch them perform in their sport. [...]
Strangely enough, I don’t watch enough TV
I have been busy at work these past two weeks and I normally don’t watch much TV. But this episode of The Daily Show from March 18th makes me wish I’d at least DVR’ed this show. Jon Stewart is not really a political hack and he does make fun of everyone. That’s his job and [...]
Politically, this is a really fun week
David Frum demonstrates that he gets it. Political cartoonists get it (Danziger’s was too good to not show). GOP? Nope. Senator McCain? Nope. Democrats probably do get it but it’s a long way to November and there is plenty of time to let the bully on the block take their lunch money. The GOP had [...]
