Conservatives Blame Democrats For Polanski Rape

I’ve really been impressed with conservatives awkwardly trying to pin Roman Polanski’s sins on the whole of the political left. Along with “the media” “Hollywood values” have always been the meat and potatoes of knee-jerk conservative political excuses for anything wrong with the country. They feel that since Woody Allen and Harvey Weinstein have bizarrely [...]

Assorted Entertainment Garbage Thoughts For The Mid-Day

Somebody clue me in as to what the hell the deal with the show The Hills is. Is it a mindless drama with characters and a script, or is it some kind of reality show that is following real people? Seriously. I’m reading some item about a cast member on the show actually dating a [...]

Footballtown TSE: Self Important ESPN And Favre The Drama Queen

Two big names have returned to pro football this week. The first was Michael Vick and I have written prior to this on how I feel as heinous as what he did was, he’s done his time. That hasn’t stopped the self important from bloviating about how wretched he is. I’m normally a regular listener [...]

I remember the concern at the time but wondered why in the era of You Tube and such this happened after his death, but just right [...]

Franken And Sotomayor And Perry Mason

Watching some video of the Judge Sonia Sotomayor hearings I was struck by a handful of items. First I was glad to see the first evidence of humor arising from Senator Al Franken. I believe that Senator Franken understands that some across the country see him as another example of the loony electorate of Minnesota [...]

Michael Jackson And The Non-Football Peter King

Most non-election year summers are slow for news, but not the summer of 2009. The last couple of weeks have brought us celebrity death watch, the Sarah Palin media extravaganza, and of course the death of Michael Jackson. Now as I said before I was saddened by the death of Michael Jackson only because he [...]
