FoxNews Picks Up Michael Yon

Makes his latest post their top story.

MSN Will Be All Over This Story

Just wait for it. I am sure CNN, MSNBC, NBC, and CBS will pick it up.
Update - I was wrong about MSNBC

Omaha Reporter Fired for Supporting Candidate

Can reporters be friends and supporters of political candidates? The only reason this lady was fired was because of her picture that was posted all over when this story was mentioned. Why was her picture used. Hmmm.....maybe because she is attractive? I honestly think anyone should be able to support a candidate. It should be up to the viewer to then determine if they think the reporter can still be objective.

Paying the Poor to be Nice

Thank goodness the government of NY is not paying for this or I would have some issues.
I am all about believing that if poor people made better decisions some could get out of poverty. I am just not sure if this type of reward program is the way to make it happen. I guess I am interested in seeing if it works.

Top Democrats Say Surge Has Failed

Good to know since the surge is just now going into full effect. All of our troops have just finally arrived. Is it okay if we then see what happens during the next few months before we say it has failed? Good place to keep an eye on the progress is this website.

Muslim Taxi Drivers Want Control

Taxi cab companies should be able to determine what is and what is not allowed in their cabs, not the cab driver him or herself. If you do not like it you could always quit and find a job more suitable to your religious beliefs. In all seriousness - where is the line? If one religion gets special privelage, should all the others? Is it because we are so afraid of how Muslims will react if we "punish" them. What does that say about their religion?

The Human Mind Will Not Be Denied

Using whatever method we can to save soldiers lives.

Court Rules in Favor of Terrorists

It seems to me that these people are not US citizens hence they should not get all the rights a US citizen would get when it comes to being legally detained. I am not sure though right now what the difference is in the court of law with any other crime between those who are residents and citizens. If that was more clearly explained I could make a better judement.

The Mayor of Denver Is Doing His Part

To save the world from global warming by FORCING others to their part.
Update- Check out Denver's Warmest Years.

Death Penalty Does Discourage Murder?

According to this study it does. And apparently many others during the past six years. Shocker I was not aware of these thanks to MSN. I was truly uninformed back in the day. Thank you alternative media. Thank you.

Must See Animal Video

Seriously, the animal kingdom is freaking sweet.

Liberals Watch A Lot of Television

Light watchers of television seem to lean to the right.

NBC Is Anti-American

If the NBC President wants Rosie so bad I cannot draw any more conclusions. Rosie is so anti war/anti-Bush/anti-America it makes me sick, and this guy wants to give her two programs to voice her views! Awesome. Remember fire cannot bend metal, and who are the real terrorists???

Accept Global Warming As Fact

Becuase if you do not, you have to make apologies . Let me get this straight. If you say global warming exists and it's our fault, you are a credible person. If you say it might not be a problem, you are ridiculed and forced to apologize. I wonder if this will help others speak out with their views on the subject? Global Warming - believe it or die!

What Does It Say...

that this guy got re-elected? I guess everyone puts 90,000 dollars in their freezer.

When It Will It Be Acceptable To Take This Guy Out

What does he have to say or do before the world wakes up and says this guy is not safe? I mean if saying Israel will soon be destroyed is not enough - then what is?

SHOCKER!

University graduation speakers lean to the left. Come on. I was told colleges give a fair and balanced perspective. Like the Loyola speaker I saw two years ago.

ACLU Is At It Again

Suing a plane company for transporting terrorists. So instead of thanking them for helping with the war on terror, we are going to sue them? "American corporations should not be profiting from a CIA rendition program that is unlawful and contrary to core American values."
Core American values? Like protecting my ass from terrorists?

Clinton Just Got My Vote!

In the way she will never ever receive my vote.
Best part of the article: "There is no greater force for economic growth than free markets. But markets work best with rules that promote our values, protect our workers and give all people a chance to succeed," she said. "Fairness doesn't just happen. It requires the right government policies."
So true about fairness. Anyone who says government is the answer to our problems will never get my vote. Good luck socialism!

Education Funding Numbers

My favorite part of the story- "It's not necessarily so that states with higher spending have higher test scores." Especially when Washingtong DC is the third largest spender per pupil and has the WORST test scores. Food for thought. You know what I mean?

This Looks Fun To Read

I will keep you posted.

This Poll Makes Me Feel Safe

Ahhh radical muslims. Hot Air has the breakdown with other countries. Check out France.

You Have to Aprreciate the Irony

Does Edwards have any smart people helping him with his campaign or not?
Update- He just keeps saying stupid stuff. "The War on Terror is a bumper sticker slogan." Say that to the face of all the men and women who have died becuase of terrorists over the years.

I Want To Buy My Tickets Now

For the next Danny Glover/Hugo Chavez sponsored movie. It will be awesome.

Border Fence Bad for Environment

What isnt these days?

ACLU For Your Protection

When did the ACLU lose its way.

I Do Not Like The Precedent

XM radio is supposed to be a place where freedom of speech is allowed. I understand that this is a private business and the owners can choose to punish their employees accordingly. But you hire these people to say and do crazy things, and then you turn around and punish them for it. I do not get it. Firing Imus is having a serious ripple effect on others in the media. The funniest part about all of this is - YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO LISTEN TO ANY OF THEM. Hell XM you have to pay to listen to them. If I am a listener to these DJ's on XM - do I get my money back for a month? I paid to hear them, now I do not get to. I want my money back please.
Update - Fans react
Update 2 - Advertisers React

President Has Higher Approval Rating Than Congress

That's ironic, don't you think. A little too ironic.

When Is This Guy No Longer President?

Hopefully sooner than later. Putin gives me the creeps. I really do not want another cold war.

China's Population On The Rise

All thanks to more Capitalism and less Communism. Many people are getting rich and are comfortable paying the fines for the extra child. I love you Capitalism.

1 Million Dollars Per Game

I know Roger Clemons loves Capitalism.

Republicans For Obama?

Say it aint so!. They understand he wants universal health care right? Oh - and he wants to end the war.
Update - National Review says not quite.
Update 2- Edwards Universal Health Care is gonna cost us.

France Goes Conservative

Somebody Pinch Me! 86% voter turnout by the way.

They Voted for Chavez

Now they must deal with the consequences.

This Movie Made Me Sick Too

Just not for the same reasons.

State Funded Bible Classes

I am okay with this because the class is an elective. If students were forced to take the class, I of course would have more issues.

Inconvenient Truth Replaces the Bible - Literally!

Staying here means you want to save the world.

Whoever Said There Is Media Bias

Is just plain crazy.

Socialism

Got to love it.

MSNBC In Spin Mode

How many Sunni's are in Iraq? To say the country is split on the idea of a withdrawl just does not add up.

There Is A Special Place In Hell

For this woman.

I LOVE the FCC

Stop telling me what is safe for me and my children. Can I make that decision for myself. See - I have this thing called a remote control. And it allows me to change the channel if I do or do not like something. Hell I do not even have to buy a TV if I do not want to.

Judicial Activism Strikes Again

This time at Post Offices, which are ran in churches.

Pelosi Must Be Busy

Making deals with Iran or Syria. Who needs to have a sitdown with the guy who knows the most and best information about what is going on in Iraq? Instead you can make and support decisions about how we are losing in Iraq.

City By The Bay = "Sanctuary City"

They mayor of SF loves illegal immigrants. Love is nice.
Update - Oakland joins the team.

CNN Gets Political With Weekend Box Office Results

Read nothing into their headline. They are not trying to teach us a lesson. Usually news companies report the box office results like this and this.

General Petraeus Spells It Out

I love this guy. He does not sugar coat anything. He will tell you what he sees as positives and what he views as negatives.

PBS Is Hypocritical

They will air this with no problem. But the Islam piece - NO WAY.

The Infamous - Blame the Video Games Story

It is one of my favorites after tragedies like V-Tech.

Sharpton Is A Major Player In The Democratic Party?

What does that say about the Democratic Party?
By the way - has he apoligized to the Duke players yet?

Rapper Doing His Part

Thank you sir. Keep up the good work.

Troop Surge Is Failing

What the hell are the democrats talking about? Is it cool if we get all the troops in there and have them set up shop for a while before they make that decision. We only have 3 of the 5 combat units in Baghdad. Bare down cobra. No one said this surge was going to take a month and all would be fixed. How dare these democratic leaders make these statements before the surge is in full effect. Edwards used the Green Zone infraction as evidence the surge is not working. Officially - Edwards is an idiot.

Hardest Thing For Me To Say EVER!

I agree with John Kerry. Ouch, that really does sting a little.

Libertarians Love This Data

In the way that they don't.

This Is Just Way Wrong

Using 9 11 victims to hammer your point home is just over the line. Yes I understand people could choose whether to go or not - but just the thought of using them is something I cannot wrap around.

Makes Sense When You Think About It

Iran - where it is okay to kill your un-Islamic neighbor. They had it coming obviously. Thank God we respect cultures and let this shit slide. Unless you say Nappy Headed Ho's - then we come after you with the full power of the media.

What's That Democrats?

Oh how people change.

Nice To See This

Someone running for President and standing up for Imus. His comment about the marketplace is right on.

You Got To Want It

And these students obviously do. Good for them.

Best News I Heard All Day

If your not watching Friday Night Lights, (which most of you are not) you are truly missing out on an excellent show. Though the show started out with a lot of cliches, it has turned out to be an tremendous character driven show with the star character being the town itself. Give it a chance by any means necessary.

Political Correctness Is Out of Control

Not wanting to offend Muslims is on the top of my annoyance list.

Good Iraq News Not Being Reported by MSM

Why report this when we can hear about the tens of thousands of protesters in Najaf that ended up being between 5,000 and 7,000 people. Far from under the amount they were hoping for. Never the less front page news.

Interesting Tax Facts

Those who make over $100,000 pay 82% of our total and those who make $40,000 or less end up paying no federal income tax. The poor have it tough man. Damn those wealthy bastards who pay for all the federal programs for the poor who do not pay taxes.

Thank You Indiana Court of Appeals

For following the law on free speech.

Why Is This Imus Situation a Big Deal?

I cannot believe all the coverage his comment is getting. I do not understand why this is being treated like he killed someone. Once again MSN believes white people need to learn a lesson about race. They love to get on their high horse and tell me all about the race problems in this country and how white people are the ones who are guilty and need to fix it. And with the lessons being taught to us by the honorable Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, who have never made stupid comments in their life, makes it even more hysterical. By the way - make sure you watch BET today and count in a 15 minute time frame the N word and the B word is used by the performers on that channel. But that is somehow different I am sure. And the fact I do not know the difference probably makes me racist.

Iraqi Prime Minister Says No to Timetable

But why listen to those on the ground out there? What do they know?

Why Do We Let North Korea Win?

It seems we always give in to North Korea. They have never shown us that we can rely on their word. So now we are giving 25 million dollars (which I am sure is going right to all the starving people) and they have not shut down their reactors. I do not understand.
Update-Shocker they get the money and now are saying they will not shut down the reactors for another month. There are really smart people working on this - why is it being handled in such a horrific way?
Update 2-Just keeps getting better.

Debate Cancelled

Becuase Fox News is not fair and balanced, Obama and Edwards have pulled out of the debate. Thank the Lord they are going to have the debate hosted by CNN where fair and balanced is the name of the game. Just admit you want to have topics discussed and debated by someone who views the same world as you. Least I could respect your honesty. But saying Fox is not fair and implying than CNN is - that is just insulting to my intelligence.

Why Is This Type of Thing Illegal?

Is anyone doing something they do not want to do?

Time for Al-Sadr To Go

Should have taken this guy out a while ago.

Witholding Information from the Students

This way some students will not have their feelings hurt. Sounds logical right?

Chicago Loves Obama

No really - they love him.

President Bush References Bloggers

Bush uses two Baghdad Bloggers to talk about the positives in Iraq becuase he knows MSM is not going to do it.

I Love San Fran

How can you not? Telling businesses what they can and cannot use. All in the name of protecting their citizens. Ahhhhhhhhh.

Free To Choose

Just finished the book. It is a must read.
By the way is Free to Choose the best 3 word phrase EVER!
I am now reading this.

Congrats to the Democrats

For playing politics with the troop withdrawal bill. Thanks for adding $24.6 billion in pork to get your bill passed. What does it say that you have bribe congressman to pull out the troops? I am frustrated that the political game is being played with this war. This is serious business and to play games like this makes me ill. Maybe there should be a law that says no pork on war related bills.

VP of Iraq on Troop Withdrawal

What does he know anyway? Congress has a better grasp on the situation than he does.

Man Sentenced to 240 Years Behind Bars

Without murdering anyone. I am on the fence about hate crime punishment. Though I agree this guy should be off the street for the rest of his life - Why does a guy who did murder someone get less time than him? Why does a rapist get less time than him? Why does a child molester get less time than him?

I Thought North Carolina Was In The South

What is wrong with this guy Steve.

My Current Hero

I would love to work for this guy.

Iraqi's More Optimistic than MSM Suggests

I was told life under Saddam was nothing but rainbows and gumdrops falling from the sky. Do not worry- you will read this on CNN.
Update - Foxnews picked up the story. Still not on CNN or MSNBC. WEIRD!
Update 2 - CNN top story right now. CNN's new tagline - We want American to lose.
Update 3- NRO breaks down all the poll numbers. What does it say that Iraqi's have more hope than Americans do?
Update 4- MSNBC says Iraqi's more pessimistic than ever.
There really are two America's. One that wants America to succeed in Iraq and one that wants America to admit defeat and get out of there.

UK Is Going Green

And if you do not like it then you will be punished. Ahh - big government - there really is nothing you cannot do.

Care About What You Do

And students will respond. Wish more teachers could be like this one.

Who Killed and Brought Back to Life

The Electric Car?

Answer=Capitalism

Less Journalists More Advocates

This should really help with the whole balanced media issue.

Our Partners in Peace

Saudi Arabia! I am so glad we respect cultures.

We Need Universal Health Care

Or a toothbrush.

Thank You MSNBC

What happens when there are no major bombings in Iraq and no soldiers are killed for a day or two - MSNBC makes their top story this. And yesterday their top story was this. No kidding TOP STORY. Is it all possible to mention something positive. No that would be balanced journalism.

Illigal Immmigrant-ISH

Bank of America - where everyone is legal.

College Republicans Trying To Raise the Level of Debate

And the liberals are pissed. I love it.

Iran Defies the UN

2 big SHOCKERS here. 1. The UN has no influence over anything. 2. Iran thinks it can do what it wants and we will not doing anything about it excpet to impose more UN sanctions. Oh wait the UN has no power of them. So why have the UN if nobody is held accountable for not following thier recomendation.

I Am Sure MSM Will Pick This Up

CNN will be the first.

We Need More Dialogue With Iran

John Edwards has my vote.

Please More Regulation

The more federal regulation the better. That's what I always say.

No Need to Assimilate

It is working well in Europe. Why not here?

Utah Gives Out School Vouchers

Finally a state willing to create competition in the education system.

Thanks ABC

For giving this guy a microphone. He absolutely refuses to answer Diane's questions and instead spews hatred for the war and Bush. After he refuses to answer questions - pull the plug - why let him say whatever he wants. It is no longer an interview, instead it just becomes a forum for him to say whatever he wants.

Got to Help the Poor

And by doing so hurt the poor. Good work minimum wage.
Why is there such thing as a minimum wage? Should it not be up to the business to determine the balance of a wage that will keep employees happy and keep prices low for customers?

I Laugh With You New Yorkers

And to those who believe in this proposed law - we need to have a serious talk.

Thank God for the PC Police

Seriously - will there ever be a day when everyone gets the joke and then moves on with their day. I mean this comment is just crazy, GLAAD spokesman Marc McCarthy said Tuesday the group believed “this kind of prejudice was inexcusable.” And Darwin - I am upset with Snickers more for succuming to the pressure and pulling the ad then I am with the people who pressured them. By the way - the ad was very funny, and I am a huge advocate for gay rights. WEIRD!
