John McCain and al Qaeda

It's hard to believe that the Bush presidency has brought our republic to the brink of extinction---- just when we were flying so high ! You'd think that that alone would put the Kibosh on idiotic Republican ideation. But, alas, they still persist in their delusional thinking. posted 05/14/2008 at 22:52:17

Laughing Baby Gets The Giggles

I think my new puppy is a helluva lot cuter. Also the puppy will have a much smaller carbon foot print.
That's why we've decided to not make babies. Any new babies may have no future at all due to global warming----along with depletion of the food supply to make fuel for 500 million gas guzzling SUV's world wide. Sorry to rain on everyone's parade, but let's get real, folks. Why would you want to put your babies into a world that is an apocalyptic dystopia. Don't you love your children? posted 05/12/2008 at 08:16:18

Why Women Gladly Date Ugly Men (And Probably Even Prefer Them)

I might add that this is probably totally unconscious on the part of the woman. She is not really so conniving; she goes for the uglier male, not because she perceives a financial advantage. On the contrary, she really and truly is attracted to the uglier, but more stable, male.

I feel like Joyce Brother spouting out like this, but, in a related point, woman don't marry wealthy men for their money. They are not necessarily gold-diggers. But wealth makes the man, himself, attractive to a woman.

John, the stable frog. posted 05/17/2008 at 11:10:14
There was a study that showed that women who were more fertile, either because of their monthly cycle or because of their optimal age, were strongly attracted to handsome bad boys. But women who were at the nadir of their monthly cycles or who were more mature, went for more stable, financially better off, perhaps "frog like", men. This makes reproductive sense: More fertile women are more likely to become pregnant. So such women want the best genes for their babies, which is true for all species. Then the "handsome bad boy" obligingly get himself killed ( ex: JFK ! ) This frees the woman to seek out the more stable, wealthier, more "frog like" male to raise the "handsome bad boy's" genetically superior offspring in a more secure environment. ( for example : Onassis ! ) Does this make sense to you or not ? posted 05/17/2008 at 09:14:52

CNN Poll: George Bush Most Unpopular President In Modern History

I'll bet he doesn't even mind being called the most unpopular president. In his own mind, he's the greatest because of "Mission Accomplished" ! posted 05/01/2008 at 17:52:33

Arianna Discusses The Right Wing's "Lunatic Fringe" On ABC's 20/20

According to Stossel's line of reasoning, the government is less efficient than the private section. Well, yes, that's true. But he argues that, therefore, government regulation is bad ; as inefficient as the government is, I'd still trust the government over private organizations in many cases : for instance, Meat Inspection ! Would you trust Colonel Sanders to inspect its chickens completely independent of Government standards ? I'm sure he would be really efficient at it, but he would be tempted to cut corners in order to maximize profits--and who could blame him. posted 04/26/2008 at 10:35:39

Post Hoc Ergo Shut Up Hoc

Of course she's a sneak ! She's a politician , so we expect that. But Obama somehow doesn't seem like a sneak,which is very unusual . Ordinarily, such a candidate would be made into mincemeat by the more sneaky candidates. We haven't had such an upstanding sounding man make is so far into an election. I'd like to see what will result if he gets in. Maybe another age of enlightenment. posted 04/23/2008 at 18:13:49

Bear From Will Ferrell's "Semi-Pro" Kills Trainer

What would be the purpose of killing the bear ---- punishment ? ---deterrence ? Can you imagine other bears watching tv and hearing the verdict ? ....... " Whooa ! He got the death penalty! I'd better not kill anybody. From now on , I'm a changed bear ! I'm scared straight ! " Yeah, that ought to work real fine. Nice going , people. posted 04/23/2008 at 14:56:12

Condoleezza Rice Mocks Al-Sadr As A Coward

I think we should tell the Arab nations that we will withdraw form Iraq. That will scare the pants off them since that would be tantamount to handing Iraq to Iran. Let *THEM* come up with a solution. posted 04/21/2008 at 10:47:10

White Men

I'm willing to give the author the benefit of the doubt-----She's much too intelligent and wise to make such an inflammatory post in seriousness It must have been meant as a joke. After all, she IS a humorist. If not meant as a joke, then maybe it was meant to stimulate a discussion among us readers. She surely doesn't really think that there aren't as many dumb women as dumb men who would vote for McCain because he "will be tough on them terrorist, even if we have to stay in Iraq for 100 years!" posted 04/21/2008 at 10:03:51

Sexpelled: No Intercourse Allowed

This film's target audience is the scientifically ignorant ( they may have flunked out of high school General Science and never dared to try again out of fear and, ultimately, "bitterness" ).

Unfortunately, this audience is also a CAPTIVE audience; they are very unlikely to be reached by a rational, scientific rebuttal, as that would require them to have a basic understanding of science, which they don't have.

I don't have any quick solutions for this ignorance, but I believe that a beginners course in Formal Logic should be required in High School, since science ultimately relies on logic. posted 04/21/2008 at 10:36:53

Where Is the League of Women Voters When We Need Them?

I have hazy memories, from better days, of hearing about something called "the league of women voters" and how they sponsored tv debates and other things meant to inform us citizens on important issues. I was too young and ignorant to appreciate this institution, but now I sorely miss those ladies. Alas, they too have fallen victim to the same malady that infects the rest of this country, the military industrial complex. posted 04/17/2008 at 15:08:19

Women and the Church -- Catholicism's Original Sin

Note to all catholics, whether male or female: Which of the words "Papal infallibility" don't you understand? If the Pope says women are inferior, then all catholics must believe it ! Don't complain about it; you are the one who decided to be a catholic. If you don't like this, then you can decide NOT to be a catholic. I decided long ago not to be a catholic, and now I marvel at the gullibility of those who still cling to this medieval institution. posted 04/16/2008 at 15:29:12

Here We Go Again

with all the people stopping here, not one pointed out that my count of 17 thousand comments here was wrong! It should be 17 hundred. :0) posted 04/15/2008 at 17:55:28
You can tell this topic is hitting a chord with people. As of now, there are a whopping 17 thousand comments here on HuffPost for this topic. It's obvious that we all see through the bs that McCain and Hillary are spewing about how "bad" Obama is for daring to point out that the emperor has no clothes ! That, in itself, is the true act of elitism: it assumes we are too stupid to fall for this lie! posted 04/15/2008 at 16:17:49

Why American Airlines' Big Public Sad Meltdown is Good

This problem started when the late Freddie Laker started his, unheard-of at the time, ultra low cost , no-frills air service a couple of decades ago. Since then, the passengers have felt that they deserved cheap seats, whether the companies made enough profit or not, causing airlines to cut corners to make ends meet. We all know the result of this: poor baggage control, poor maintenance , unreliable scheduling, grouchier stewardesses etc. posted 04/11/2008 at 23:33:03
They should bring back ocean liners! I'm not saying that we shouldn't be able to fly on occasion, But I'd rather cruise to Europe. We ALL love cruises; why can't we use them as a form of transport in addition to using them as floating casinos, hopping from one Greek Island to another ? If you are in a hurry, then fly--or better yet, do your business by internet. posted 04/11/2008 at 18:39:39

Pregnant Man: New Photos Revealed

If the media constantly bombard us with such stories, we have a right to judge the situation as positive or as negative. These trans individuals have the right to use whichever gender pronouns they want for themselves, but we have the right to call a spade a spade if that is what we see. posted 04/01/2008 at 15:02:15
I don't even think that "normal" people should have children. Children have no future on this planet, which, as George Carlin says, will become a steaming pile of turd by the time these children are adult. If you want children, then adopt ! If you can't adopt, then rescue a puppy ! posted 04/01/2008 at 10:19:38

Madonna In Vanity Fair: Disses New York In Profanity-Laced Interview

A lot of what she said is true. But she lost me when she started spouting that Kabbala crap about how your spirit determines whether you have sons or daughters. Totally negated by modern biological research ! posted 03/31/2008 at 18:12:39

Pregnant Man?: Find Out How It Happened

I don't see anything wrong with being transgendered. Usually, such people have no choice; they are born that way. But lets not bring children into this situation. It's hard enough to be a child these days without having a mom who's also a dad ! The kid is going to be relentlessly resentful of the parents, and who can blame him/her !! Don't deliberately do something to spread misery inthe world. posted 03/27/2008 at 13:16:47

"The View" Heats Up Over Racism, Whoopi Declares, "This Is A Racist Country"

Whether you are white or black, if you see 6 black men standing on the corner, you would be wise to turn around. Most of the times that I've encountered 6 black men standing on the corner, I had my a_s wooped! It's left scars on my psyche. So, please don't call me a racist! posted 03/24/2008 at 20:38:10

Newsrooms Revolt!

It's interesting to hear that the downturn in the quality of CNN's news was brought about by competition!
Normally, competition is looked on as a GOOD thing. But your assessment seems to make sense, which had me nonplussed ---- until I remembered that we, the audience, are not the consumers; we are the merchandise that is bought and sold to the corporate advertisers like cattle at an auction. posted 03/22/2008 at 13:12:17

The 100 Years War

If you can't beat them, join them. That's why I just bought stock in several aerospace-defense companies. If this country is stupid enough to vote for those clowns, I might as well make some big bucks off it. That way I can afford to buy my own tropical island and not have to hear about any of this. posted 03/21/2008 at 13:39:57

Empress Tina Fey Has No Clothes

It doesn't matter whether or not I laugh hysterically at each of Stewart's jokes. That's not the point. The gags on the show are all truthful retelling of what is happening in the world. The "news" shows should be doing that, but, for complex reasons, they do not !
Stewart IS funny. The laughter may be mild, but the humor is real----that's one of the signs that what you hear is true. Truth can be funny, but lies seldom are. posted 03/22/2008 at 14:15:12
