On September 17th, 2010 “Real Time” host, Bill Maher played an unaired clip of Christine O’Donnell from his old show, “Politically Incorrect.” On October 29, 1999, the 2010 Senatorial candidate for Delaware said, I dabbled into witchcraft — I never joined a coven. But I did, I did. I dabbled [...]

Trojan HufPo

We all know the story of the Trojan Horse. The Greeks cleverly concocted a plan to present to the Trojans, a valuable gift that in fact concealed those who would attack them from within. Submitted for your consideration, two of today’s headlines about Obama from the valuable gift the Greek-heritaged [...]

I never meant to become an American. It was never a part of my game plan, but here I am a naturalized American citizen, getting ready to vote for the second time in my life. Funny, the directions life takes you, forks in the road you never intended to take. [...]

Let us take it for given that the second amendment guarantees all Americans the right to bear arms… Question: how many armless bears can the National Forest Service support, and can someone pass the BBQ sauce? If political parties are to interpret The Constitution in the light of what they [...]

I’m sorry to say that Joan Walsh and I are no longer friends, and that’s upset me.  No more gossipy girls’ lunches or hour-long telephone calls, no more whispery confidences about who’s doing what with whom, no more laments over the San Francisco Giants or the Washington Redskins … but [...]

In October of 1955, Allen Ginsberg read a poem in San Francisco that electrified the audience.  This poem was successful as soon as it came out.  It is as pertinent today as anything. HOWL by Allen Ginsberg I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical [...]

Democrats have wasted an historic moment.  A mandate that is given by the people once every couple of generations.  The people spoke and said bring change and restore our country.  Democrats of course talked a good game saying we will work for the people and against the plutocracy wrought by [...]

Unless you’ve been living on another planet recently, you’re surely aware of the phenomenon that is Kim Kardashian‘s butt! We caught up with it outside Grauman’s Chinese Theater, just after making a fresh imprint on Hollywood Boulevard, and it agreed to sit down with us and tell us what it’s [...]

…. I went to the sheriff asking what the 9-1-1 call was about. Sure enough, after Andy’s “expose,” came out, Bill’s neighbour completely freaked out and called the Sheriff’s. They sent a boat out in the middle of the night and picked her up and took her off the island. [...]

Ever argue with someone who will not budge off their position no matter what you say or what data you provide to support your case?  The close minded ideologue is a tough nut to crack because facts do not matter to them.  Their position is bolstered by faith or emotion [...]

This is hands down the most bizarre story I ever covered in my unremarkable career as a newspaperman. It dragged on for three or four years. It was a story that refused to die, no matter how badly I wanted to stomp it to death. It was also one of [...]

scared

Yesterday on The View, Joy Behar and Whoopie Goldberg did something most people aren’t brave enough to do – show Bill O’Reilly that not everyone is going to stand for his BS. That I said, I seriously wish that someone on the show would have pointed out that a large part of the reason that such a large segment of the population feels that this center should not be built is because they are drunk off of Fox News Juice.
