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 [...]

Scotus Ruling: Why You Need My Book

The US Supreme Court has overturned the core of McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform laws.  That means corporations and unions will be unfettered in their attempts to persuade, distort, and lie to people during campaigns.

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.

Town Hall Truth: Death Panels Make Sense

This is a posting about the fear of death panels. The fear is both far-fetched and legitimate.
LAS VEGAS, NV (August 19, 2009) – Don’t dismiss the right-wing extremists views on death panels right away. They’re not entirely out of touch with American fears.

LAS VEGAS, NV (July 13, 2009) – There’s more entertainment going on in D.C. and Wasilla [...]

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 [...]

The Drone War in Pakistan

There is a great piece in the New York Times editorial section co-written by David Kilcullen on the negative effect of the attacks by American UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles).  Kilcullen’s theories were instrumental with the surge in Iraq.   More importantly, he speaks with great knowledge and research.  It’s ironic that Kilcullen calls for a stoppage of [...]

Need Your Unbiased Opinion: New TV Show

I’m about ready to embark on an internet TV show. I need some feedback to mold it the right way.
In generic terms, here’s what the show will be:
