There was a time in basketball when a lesser team could try to even the odds of winning by eating up the clock or stalling. When playing a better team, the lesser team would get the ball and just stand there doing nothing. Dribble for a few minutes, pass the...

It's time for Republicans and conservatives to publicly denounce Rush Limbaugh's unconscionable remarks about the tragedy in Haiti.

In case you haven't heard, the self-proclaimed leader of the Republican Party announced on Wednesday that the devastation in Haiti "...will play right into Obama's hands... They'll use this to burnish their,...

Well, well well. Everybody's pick to win it all, Florida, lost to Alabama. Didn't just lose, got creamed, crushed, stomped and exposed for what they really are: A good to mediocre team at best. The same can be said for the entire SEC, the most overrated and over-hyped conference in...

Sunday mornings just aren't the same anymore. The days of spending hours leisurely reading the Sunday paper and watching the network news shows are a thing of the past. The incredible shrinking newspapers have become a joke and real journalism on the talk shows has completely disappeared.

Yesterday FOX "News"...

Last week I wrote about Butler University in Indianapolis, the first school of higher education ever to sue one of it's own students over the content of his Internet blog. Once word of this abuse of the legal system spread outside the tight-knit world of academics and into...

Jess Zimmerman is a junior at Butler University in Indianapolis. Last year he wrote criticisms of Butler's administration in an anonymous blog. It was an opinion piece. Apparently the administrators at Butler don't take too kindly to criticism because now they've taken the unprecedented action of suing Jess and threatening...

A few days ago the Los Angeles Times ran a story that the ABC show Dancing With The Stars was suffering a major ratings slump. Possible causes were that it was being hurt by another dancing show against it on FOX and a yet another "CSI Somewhere" on CBS....

Yesterday there was power outage on the Westside of Los Angeles. It happened around ten thirty Saturday morning and lasted for two hours. Without television or the Internet, the most useful tool to get information is a battery-powered radio. (Every Californian knows that when the ground shakes, you turn on...

If you ever thought there was a cultural difference between Republicans and Democrats, check out this survey by MediaCurves

Just click the play button and watch this one minute video.

Now try to make the case for bi-partisanship. Wow.

In today's (September 1st) Los Angeles Times, along with the extensive coverage of the devastating fires is this letter to the editor from Mr. B White:

"Where are all the "Tea-baggers" now that we need them? The bumbling government, once again, is launching another bound-to-fail program with the massing...

The rich "Country Club" Republicans, radio talk show hosts and screaming town hall lunatics just got another reason to hate Barack Obama. A Korean, Y.E. Yang, just beat Tiger Woods to win the 2009 PGA Championship. The PGA is the Pro Golfers Association of America. They represent people who take...

After Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal made a big show of how independent he was by rejecting President Obama's stimulus package, he's now going around the state presenting oversized checks to constituents and taking credit for the new jobs it's produced. Texas Governor Rick Perry, who went so far as to...

Oh...my...God. This is currently running on the internet front page of The Guardian, one of London's most influential newspapers:

"Tippi Hedren Tells Jackson Tigers Of His Death"

One other Jacksonian thought. Since wherever Michael Jackson will be buried will become a circus, why not bury him somewhere in a rust belt...

Gee whiz. Now South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford has admitted that he's been having an affair with some Argentinean babe. This follows a week after Republican Senator John Ensign admitted to an affair with a staff member. Yes, this has happened to a few Democratic pols, too. But there is...

The recent spate of talking points centering on calling President Obama out on his supposedly wimpy backing of the protesters in Iran are obviously trying to pressure the President to act as recklessly and impulsively as their own albatross-in-chief, George W. Bush. By pulling a Bush and inflaming the country...

The Rupert Murdoch owned New York Post Internet headline regarding the horrible shooting at the Holocaust Museum is "Nightmare At The Museum," a clever reference to the recent movie "Night At The Museum" Wonder why the editors went with that headline? Well surprise! Rupert Murdoch owned 20th Century Fox...

I can't figure out why CBS golf commentator David Feherty's comments on how our troops would gladly assassinate Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid is bothering me so much. This is the kind of comment one would expect to be heard almost daily on right wing radio. But somehow this just...

Use under-arm deodorant!

I'm talking to the guy who was sitting next to me last night during the Bruce Springsteen concert at the LA Sports Arena. Loge, section 16, row 3, seat 5. Yes, I'm talking to you, the guy with the ponytail and the vintage Springsteen T-shirt. Every time...

I canceled my subscription to the Los Angeles Times today. I'd been thinking about it for a while but today's edition (Sunday, April 5th) pushed me over the edge.

First of all, I have to admit I love newspapers. I grew up reading the New York Times, which was delivered...

With the national media's insistence of dwelling on the trivial (Who's twittering who, Obama's NCAA brackets, Dick Cheney's opinions about anything) and ignoring the big picture (Civilization as we know it is about to end), I feel it is my duty as a comedy professional to assist David Gregory, John...
