…when you can roll-over and play dead every time somebody disagrees with you.
Apparently that’s the new mantra over at the local fishwrap. Well, calling it new might be a bit of a stretch - let’s just call it continuing. It doesn’t seem to matter who the Publisher or Editor are, because when the wind blows […]

Just another reason to PutItOnTheBallot…
This morning between appointments I caught the last few minutes of the Bob Frantz show on WTAM and heard the most interesting thing - producer Dave Ramos and host Frantz bashing the petitioners for claiming that the petitioners did not know what they were doing in terms of filing deadlines for […]

If you’re anything like me you haven’t spent your summer Sunday evenings watching television. Sure, you’ve been trying to squeak every possible sultry moment out of what nature has to offer before the duldrums of winter set in and you’re forced to hope that the creative folks in TVland have come up with something worthwhile […]

By chance this morning, I caught the early portion of Bob Frantz’s show on WTAM and heard his producer Dave Ramos (sitting in for Bob today) raving about the new Medical Mart err…CONvention Center err…GENERAL FUND SALES TAX INCREASE and how he couldn’t understand why people would be against it.

One of my favorite standards of the MSM is the familiar voice of Paul Harvey (which soon may be replaced with the syrupy gravel tones of the “Southern Fried Reagan“ when FRED figures out that his is the current version of Wesley Clark’s 2004 presidential campaign). Of all the familiar bits that Harvey provides, perhaps my favorite is […]

I’ve been a little bemused lately at the uproar (yes Jill, I’m calling you out on this:
“I’m not much into name-calling, but I gotta tell you - the way the Republican candidates are freaking out over the CNN/YouTube debates - criminal and immature at the same time. You want people to vote for you, but […]

I was happy to see that Bill Moyers had a piece on the PBS front page which involved Victor Gold and the state of the Republican party. We recently reviewed Gold’s book (Invasion of the Party Snatchers) on this page and it remains a high volume traffic recipient.
Even though I believe that Moyers provides a very […]

I happened to be watching Morning Joe the other day when Mika Brzezinski refused to read the Paris Hilton story for the news segment of the show. What’s now transpired into this week’s viral video seemed fairly contrived to me during the broadcast and now that it’s bouncing around the internet at high speed, I […]

This is not intended to come across as a slight - I am being very serious here…
I did not know ANYTHING about last night’s forum for Democratic presidential candidates at Howard University broadcast on PBS. The first I learned of it was this morning with a story on the second page in the first […]

At least that’s what our elected representatives in the House were saying yesterday as they allowed their annual cost of living increase to quietly pass through the dark of the night with a parliamentary move that allowed them to block having to actually vote on the increase.
I only need to imagine the conversation spreading yesterday through Congress’ […]
