It's the Sex, Stupid

Michael Wolff | Posted February 9, 2010 | Politics


Stories about the sex lives of politicians are just about the hottest copy in the business. So hot, that the hottest story at the New York Times is the rumor of a story about the sex life of David Paterson, New York's governor.

We are all waiting for the...

Michelle Obama and America's Fiscal Future

Dr. Maya Rockeymoore | Posted February 9, 2010 | Politics


During a breakout session at last winter's White House Fiscal Responsibility Summit, President Obama's chief economic advisor Larry Summers introduced the subject of Social Security reform by suggesting that an increase in the retirement age may be a prudent consideration given that "Americans are living longer."

NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report) - The Fox News Channel, which has already signed Sarah Palin to a deal as an on-air commentator, today deepened their commitment to the former Alaska governor by signing her hand as well.

Burning Up Your Fear By Walking On Fire!

Ed and Deb Shapiro | Posted February 9, 2010 | Living


Walking on hot coals is not in our DNA! We were keynote teachers at a "No Mind Festival" in Sweden. The grand finale was to do a firewalk. Ed began to get mentally prepared and reminded himself each day that he would be walking over red-hot embers. As frightening as...

If Michael Moore Would Run for President

Robert Naiman | Posted February 9, 2010 | World


If Michael Moore would run for President in 2012, it could be a game-changer in American political life. For starters, it would likely shorten the war in Afghanistan by at least six months, and the American and Afghan lives that would be saved would alone justify the effort.

If Moore...

Its the Saints!

Jim Randel | Posted February 9, 2010 | Business


After 42 years of futility, after one of the worst natural disasters in U.S. history, and just a few years after fans wore bags on their heads, the New Orleans Saints are today the best team in football.

To me, the story is a metaphor for the principle of...

Let's Call It "Pocketbook Populism"

Mark Green | Posted February 9, 2010 | Politics


Time to take back "populism" from Teabaggers and Palinites who've kidnapped it to only mean less government and taxes. Democrats need to define a phrase and philosophy that tells Independents we're on your side.

This blog post is about language -- a phrase actually. For policy wonks, please read...

The Southeastern Toyota Bullies: Should You Buy a Car From These People?

Bob Franken | Posted February 9, 2010 | Media



Let's be blunt. 173 Toyota dealers in the United States are plain and simply un-American. They are the members of their association that covers five southeastern states, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina and South Carolina, that have decided to pull their advertising from ABC affiliates in their coverage...

Wayne Winston | Posted February 9, 2010 | Sports


Now that the Super Bowl is over, the next big sports event is the NBA All Star Game. We believe that selection to the All Star team should be based on how a player helps his team win. In 2000 my colleague Jeff Sagarin and I developed the Adjusted +/-...

Fall Fashion Gets Darker and Smaller

Alex Geana | Posted February 9, 2010 | Style


Fall Fashion Week sneaks up on us - as we try to find our footing in an uncertain future. It sneaks past our personal ledgers and those of the robber barons. Past the rhetoric and positioning of our leaders.

The spark of culture in these trying times, often...

The Tea Party Dumps Economic Populism: Where are the Progressives?

Les Leopold | Posted February 9, 2010 | Business


The Tea Party sprang to life in response to the financial crash that sent our economy into a tailspin. Until recently, it balanced two tendencies: hatred of big government and hatred of Wall Street. The combination (in the form of the bailouts and stimulus programs) provided a perfect target as...

Be careful what you wish for.

Toyota aimed to be the biggest car-maker in the world, and since they achieved that goal through GM's bankruptcy, everything, it seems, has been going downhill for the pride of Toyota City (yep, that's where its...

Palin Headlines Birther Conference; Press Pretends Not To Notice

Eric Boehlert | Posted February 9, 2010 | Media


Virtually nobody in the corporate media said boo about Sarah Palin appearing on the same Tea Party stage as birther nut Joseph Farah, and helping him legitimize his creepy crusade. Palin was given a total free ride.

And I mean nobody. According to Nexis, there were more than 150...
