Politicians and Sit-coms

This is a posting about the hypocrisy of our national leaders and how their logic is similar to an argument once delivered on a sit-com.  Unfortunately, the spineless ones in Congress aren’t funny.
There was an episode of Barney Miller on Election Day.  The detective were called to a house where a woman was locked in [...]

Pick One Already!

This is a posting about the non-sense from the media and both political parties about the economy and jobs. It’s best seen through a funny beer commercial.
LAS VEGAS, NV (December 3, 2009) – You’ve seen the Miller Lite commercial where the couple is at a restaurant and she asks, something to this effect, “If your [...]

We Need A Lot Of Rethinking

This is a posting that shows there are more powerful and sinister forces behind our government and our economy. If you are or were an investor, then you will be seeing red when you finish reading this. It will also make you a more cautious viewer of CNBC and some of its minions like Larry [...]

Wondering Why Iranians Aren’t Playing The Zionist Card

I just saw this on Debka, an Israeli intelligence service.  You can see the enitre posting here.
Ruling circles in Tehran have interpreted a remark by Israel’s Mossad director Meir Dagan as signifying Jerusalem’s non-interference in the domestic turmoil besetting the regime over the disputed presidential election, DEBKAfile’s Iranian sources report. They see Israel lining up [...]

Iran And The New Media

This is a quick posting on the events in Iran and what they tell us about our changing world. Again, once we get the live daily show up and running, I’ll be offering much more.

Ending Congressional Corruption with NASCAR

There’s a good op-ed in the Washington Times about ending the corruption and money-grubbing tendencies of our elected officials. It involves NASCAR. And although it’s a little far-fetched, let’s look at anything.
LAS VEGAS, NV (April 23, 2009) – In previous posts, I have railed against the money corruption practiced by our elected officials. Taking money [...]

Baseball, Cuckoo’s Nest, Casablanca: Explain Today’s New World

This is a posting about understanding the changes we Americans face. If we knew that history – as told by our films and games — was repeating itself, then we might not be as uptight. At least we wouldn’t take the right-wing extremists so seriously.
LAS VEGAS, NV (April 14, 2009) – There is a recurring [...]

How To Assess New President – Our Narcissist in Chief?

This is a posting about assessing our new president. It seems the majority of Americans have the right thinking. Still, there are others, thanks to the whacky extremists in the blogosphere, who will write anything and pretend it is solid information.
LAS VEGAS, NV (April 12, 2009) – There’s an old joke about actors. How many [...]

Thomas Paine Video Revolt. Not As Revolting

This is a posting about a video sent to me by a good friend. It’s a 6-minute diatribe by an actor playing Thomas Paine calling for a tea bag revolt. Although I’m not going to waste money sending a tea bag in the mail to my elected leaders, I think this video is worth watching. [...]

Another Weapon Of Mass Distortion On All That American Oil In Our Ground

This is a posting on a recycled email that someone keeps sending to fire up Americans about the fact we’re not drilling oil on our own lands.  Although some of the information in the email is correct, its conclusion and its call to action are wrong.  Again, I don’t know if the writer of this [...]
