Rachel Maddow Exposes Right-Wing Racism !

Shouldn't using race in a political context the same be called the same age old tactic of 'divide and conquer'?

Want to know why right-wing radio hosts are using race as a weapon against President Obama? MSNBC's Rachel Maddow breaks it down.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Cultural change is never easy. Let's just hope the emergence of a truly multicultural nation doesn't spur some arch-conservatives into violent action. Do need another Scott Roeder or James Von Brunn?

As a political junkie, their verbal filth is even getting to me..

The Future of Artificial Intelligence !

Studio B's Shepard Smith talks to Martha Pollack of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence about an upcoming conference in California to discuss standardized rules for current and future artificial intelligence .

Can we live peacefully with robots? Will human-robot relations be as simple as "driving a car"?

I wouldn't know for certain. But, it appears all the answers seems up to us.

Lateral Pass?: Bill O'Reilly & Bernard Goldberg Say Lou Dobbs Wasn't Promoting the Birthers ?!

A day after CNN's Lou Dobbs thanked him on his radio show, on 'The O'Reilly Factor', Bill O'Reilly brought his conservative media critic Bernard Goldberg to defend, or rather recast what Lou Dobbs was saying when he questioned why President Obama had not produced a birth certificate (though the birth certificate was posted on BarackObama.com and is in the hands of most media).

No matter, Lou Dobbs brought the issue up in his commentary on the birthers.



Bernard Goldberg now advocates that Dobbs was simply talking about the issue, not supporting it. Then, conservative Bill O'Reilly and Bernard Goldberg recast the Lou Dobbs as in example of free speech under attack by liberal media management (which all conservatives know) will protect anything which seeks to undermine the agenda of the Obama administration. After all, Bernard Goldberg opines the administration "wouldn't mind conservatives look like a bunch of lunatics". You mean they don't already?

C'mon, who would believe Lou Dobbs is a "renegade", besides fellow anti-immigration advocate Bill O'Reilly or the minutemen ?

What's all the conservative media birther drama about, re-establishing busines as usual - Democrats as foreign and Republicans as the only true patriots.

Hey, wasn't that the 1980s..

"Bill O'Reilly..is a stand up guy."

Shepard Smith Rings the Swine Flu Alarm !!

On Fox Report, Shepard Smith was in one of his self-deprecating joking mood while getting the low down from the CDC on the H1N1 virus for first responders. I like to listen to Shepard because he is one of the few Fox newsman without an obvious right-leaning agenda, and no doubt, he's survival due to his being a Fox orginal, not a red baiting meat recruit.

Just the news with some passion.



Should we be afraid? Or should we simply stay viligant and (like terrorism) simply go about our lives?

I guess we'll find out this fall.

"Be very afraid"

Glenn Beck Radio Show: Explaining "Obama is a Racist" !!

This morning on Glenn Beck's radio show, Glenn tries to explain away his "Obama is a racist" commentary as some of media exaggeration labeled by the liberal media to distract attention from President Obama's real agenda.

Part 1


I have a few questions of my own: Did somehow Fox News put him up to it? How can the liberal media misconstrue "Obama is a racist."? How can the media be distracting the American people from th President's agenda, when the GOP is obstinate on health care, and at the same time, criticizes the bipartisan compromises in the congressional health plans as not "bipartisan"?

Right-wing Glenn Beck as with (unfortunately) most of the Republican party has become 'smoke and mirrors'. I guess, that's why Glenn Beck said nothing about the comments on his Fox News show.

Nothing to tell. Nothing to say.

Part 2

"The Media is Very Upset"

REACTION to Glenn Beck's "Obama is a Racist" - From MSNBC's Morning Joe !

Watch and listen to Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski, Willie Geist, Mike Barnicle, Lawrence O'Donnell, and Jonathan Capehart react - and try to make sense of - Glenn Beck's incendiary comments.



"Is it Live or is it Memorex?"

Beck Goes NUCLEAR!: Obama is a Racist !!

A small nuclear device went off at Fox News.

Tuesday morning, on Fox News' morning propaganda fest, FOX and Friends, Glenn Beck did his usual cross-show promo work and, in light of the Professor Gates incident, decided to 'weigh in' on President Obama and his personal agenda.

Torpedoes are about to go off in 3, 2, 1..



Outrageous race baiting at its lowest. Beck doesn't even try to indulge the pretence of framing issues leaning to such white ethnic sentiment - he just goes there.

Bad move, though it's great for Glenn Beck ratings because many curious viewers and rabid fans will be wondering when the next verbal grenade will be thrown to start the race war!

On the good side, maybe Glenn will finally admit he believes in FEMA, the black helicopters, and secret concentration camps. This is rhetoric that can make some sick individuals take vigilante action, like Kansas abortion doctor shooter, Scott Roeder, who apparently listened to Bill O'Reilly on abortion target Dr. George Tiller, enough so to comment on the show's website.

Why does Fox promote this trash? Oh, I forgot, the money.

"A Deep Seated Hatred"

Tim Pawlenty Trashes Obamacare (Ssh, He's Running for President!)

No more Mr. Nice Guy!

After the Minnesota Governor decided not to run for reelection in 2010, Governor Tim Pawlenty, a (for sure) 2012 Republican presidential candidate has started touring the country on behalf on elected officials and state parties barnburning the Obama administration.

It's really a shame because the actual Gov. Pawlenty governed in from a moderate perspective, which (due to the moderate and liberal GOP purge) is an ideological viewpoint that's nearly possible win the Republican nomination with. Thus, the conservative rant.

Watch Pawlenty trash Obamacare and build his TV "presence".



Now, notice Pawlenty doesn't give any plans, just criticism, and red meat for 'liberal' Greta Van Susteren to give her 'conservative' Gretawire.com audience.

"A Star is Born"

The 'Other' Michelle: Michelle Malkin Attacks First Lady Michelle Obama !!

Michelle Malkin has gone there.

Yes, she has decided that the First Lady Michelle Obama's approval is too high, so in her new book, Culture of Corruption, about President Obama's past and present Chicago connections in his past and within the White House, Malkin takes particular aim at the First Lady's ties to her husband's political career.

With the help of "filthpeddler" Sean Hannity, Sean gives the other Michelle a forum on 'Hannity', to throw aspersions to the firing of colleagues, her salary, and the real purpose of her public agenda.



Bascially, it's your normal right-wing hit piece. Love to sales pitch by Malkin, just like an infomercial!

I love Michelle Malkin. No worries about facts, figures, just ideology, and sleaze.

Love the hair though.

"The First Crony"

The Final Insult?: Sarah Palin's Speech ala William Shatner !!

I will say little, except to say listen to Conan O'Brien of The Tonight Show introduce William Shatner reverence and respect for as he channels the heartfelt sentiments of Governor Sarah Palin on her pursuit of life, media, and wild Americana.

I'm numb.

"Lost in Translation"

Rep. Thaddeus McCotter Demands an Apology from Obama ?!

Sad to see if true, but, Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (R-MI) appeared today on Fox News' "America's Newsroom" with Megyn Kelly boasting about his new house bill demanding the President to apologize to Officer James Crowley for calling the actions of the Cambridge, Massachusetts police force as having acted "stupidly" in the arrest of Harvard Professor Henry Gates.

Since when did this local incident become a partisan issue for Republicans?



Race. Class. Partisanship. Are these the three pillars the GOP will use for 2010 for rev up angry white men to the polls? It won't work.

Wonder why?

Like the stimulus, health care, and now, black professor vs. white policeman, domestic issues don't energize the Republican base like foreign policy or immigration, with the now two generations oldm, GOP engineered Democratic vision of an America under siege.

If this is all Rep. McCotter is got? He not only needs new talking points, but a complete new agenda for the 21st Century.

"Strict Constructionist"

Glenn Beck: Lock and Loaded

Right now, here is a double dose of Becktology 101 (Man, this guy never stops talking - or clowning). In this segment, good old Glenn Beck rants against the liberals aghast because he carries a concealed handout around, I guess, everywhere - because Glenny even took it to the movies!

Shoot 'em ups, anyone?

I do like to see reality train wrecks: Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Micheal Jackson (oh, he'd dead), and now Glenn Beck.

Or should I call him, "G.B." ?

It seems cooler to call him that while he waves that concealed weapon that's proud to everyone know he has.

Oh, brother..

"Nightmare on Beck Street"

Ann Coulter Actually Supports Obama ?!

This weekend on the "Emmy-worthy" show, hosted by Geraldo Rivera, "Geraldo At Large", frequent guest and societal agitator, columnist Ann Coulter, did the unthinkable - she supported an assertion of the Obama administration - that President Obama is a U.S. citizen born in Hawaii.

Is this a battle between Ann Coulter and CNN's anti-immigration conservative Lou Dobbs? Or does Ann have amnesia from a fall on the head? Slowly, but surely, is the good, altruistic side of this polarizing figure beaming forth during these challenging economic times?

Listen and decide for yourself.



Basically, Ann's kind words of denial are based on the Republicans not completely jumping off the cliff. But, they already have, haven't they ?

"Lou Dobbs is not a crank."

Is Glenn Beck Going Crazy ?!

Shock jock cum "news" host Glenn Beck is now talking to himself after a bizarre rant he gave to a female caller challenging him and his conservative ilk on health care . Now, in damage control (as part of a familiar pattern), after an outrageous topic or video stunt, Glenn Beck "the rodeo clown " personality appears to smooth over the controversy and create a lighthearted happy face.

Somehow, I don't think he's that happy or takes himself so lightly.

The "rodeo clown" Glenn Beck excused his off-the-cuff rant on the woman because she was an "imbicile" who wasn't listening. Well, what were you saying besides that Obamacare will not work. Now, we know the Republicans have no plans to release any specific counter proposals, besides the bare bones ideas of a plan.

No leaders. No plans. No message.

No wonder the Birthers are in control of the GOP! Glenn, you're right: rant away!!

"I Think You're Crazy."

Sen. Conrad is Trying to Force Democrats to Accept Bipartisan Bill !!

"Is this the revenge of the Moderates?"

Liberals are the ones who crystalized the Democratic message to win the White House and nationally in Congress in 2008. In 2009, will the moderate Democrats, afraid the socialism claims by the Republicans, muddle the message (and the mandate)?

That could be happening.

On Sunday, Senator Kent Conrad (D), moderate Democrat in North Dakota, was on This Week with George Stephanopoulos opposite infamous arch conservative South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint (R). Though Conrad seems sane compared to negative ramblings of DeMint, Sen. Conrad told George Stephanopoulos that Democrats could not pass a bill without bipartisan support (which, so far, consists of only three Republican senators).

So, for three votes- not even on the Senate finance committee, goodbye public option and as well as many competitive insurance mandates.

I say, Hell No!!

Contact Sen. Kent Conrad and demand the presevation of a public option. All Americans deserve health care !!

"O No, You Didn't!" Reality Lothario Uri Man Takes Aim at Fox News' Ainsley Earhardt !!

"Is he hitting on me on live TV?"

Yes, he did!

Is this a love connection or is this another lovelorn basketcase fit for reality TV?

Maybe both. But, in any case, this "made for television" event wouldn't be the first time business and financial analyst Uri Man has been on TV looking for love. This reality TV junkie had a guest starring on the Bravo channel's The Millionaire Matchmaker show where he was more picky about the eligible women set up to meet him, than a camera set in his face. (Personally, I think he chose the camera crew. Oops!)

Fox News anchor Ainsley Earhardt wore yellow, just for him..she looks so happy, and perplexed..

Can you feel the chemistry between Uri Man and Ainsley Earhardt?

Smell the magic below (cough!)..

Here's even more of the Manz!:

"A Real Catch"

WH Spokesman Gibbs Shoos Away the Birthers!!

"Any flies in here?"

At today's White House briefing, spokesman Robert Gibbs was asked the irrelevant "birther" question by the far right of President Obama's birth origins. That is, whether he was actually born in the United States (which is required by the Constitution), or whether there is a "Manchurian Candidate" conspiracy by the left to dismantle democracy for socialism.

Never mind, the Honolulu, Hawaii birth announcement in The Honolulu Advertiser, or that with Hawaii state by-laws, actual birth certificate are sealed, rather the state publicly issues certifications of authentication to interested parties.

Well, birthers, the White House is answering your question, I think..

"President Obama is a bad, bad man."
