Many Teens Saying No Thanks To Summer Jobs
Something's fishy. Not to mention the article lacks specifics. A handful of numbers can allow any number of deductions, if not outright conjecture.
I'm nowhere near their age group (mid-teens), but when I was that age (1990) I was looking for work all over; biking rather than driving despite being legal enough to drive. Of course, I was also labeled a geek, dork, and whatever else, but that's not the point...
Are kids noticing what jobs are available in this country, feeling doom and gloom, and not giving a damn any longer?
Are there too many adults doing fast crap food jobs, so there's nothing left for the kids to take?! posted 05/16/2008 at 19:39:53

Top Bill O'Reilly "Inside Edition" Spoofs, Analysis (VIDEO)
I know what it means too, but I don't think that was the point. Well, I hope that wasn't his point. If that's what Bill should have said, he should have said it. That's what he was paid to do, in theory. posted 05/16/2008 at 14:46:11
Ouch.
Bill was pissed because "to play us out" is moronic kiddie slang. His problem, if any, was that he felt the show "Inside Edition" wasn't tabloid trash and deserved more formal language to read.
He's not perfect, and definitely over the top, but the personal attacks are warranted.
The dance mix was hilarious, however. posted 05/16/2008 at 14:27:25

Ellen Degeneres Announces Plans To Marry Portia De Rossi (VIDEO)
I am technically bisexual, if anyone cares.
In a different, less mature forum, I had no qualms saying that's what I technically am. (Not just because half the people can say I'm a closet gay, with the other half saying I'm incapable of making a choice...) I also told them I made a choice as to how I live, and they were not satisfied with that simple explanation, which I shall repeat below:
I made a choice. I will concentrate my time on a WOMAN who likes me as much as I like her, and work toward a lifelong relationship and marry. Not simply swap fluids, say "thanks", get tested for 20 diseases, and then move on to the next. That is nothing to be proud of, especially if they themselves proclaim "tolerance for all" but then say MY choice is wrong (as it contradicts what they want, which is to be antisocial rabble). I'll snort what they're snorting, maybe then I'll understand their illogic.
Some people claim I hate myself or that I am ashamed. Just how ashamed do I sound, right now? Ashamed of what, might I ask? I have no qualms saying what I am because I will not let feelings control my life. It's my CHOICE to decide what I do with those feelings, I know that whatever I decide some militant goon will get all self-righteous. I've been in that position before (unlike *cough* others). So I have no problems telling my story. posted 05/17/2008 at 22:16:29

There is far more going on than a fringe issue that affects, what, 2% of the population.
I know Democrats who would kill homosexuals. (Back when I was naive, when a friend found out about my lifestyle choice, he made a threat... took the better part of a decade, but I left that lifestyle and speak against it. Even when I was in it, I was one of a very few that actually gave a darn about civil unions. At this point, I couldn't care less and there are far more issues that affect far more Americans. I'd rather concentrate on those, as an American, than piddle with a bunch of radical fringe narcissists. ) posted 05/17/2008 at 09:57:55

That's a load of rubbish. Gays say "None of anyone's business" until they themselves troll into every available avenue and say it's their culture to do it in restrooms... even singers who used to say "Does it matter?" now say "I'm here and queer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!". Seems a bit conflicting, doesn't it?
And it's not surprising that other people start responding to those self-important people. And none of us likes it when you impose your values of empty morals and diseases into ours either. Especially in those parades, which certainly don't show you're worthy of much. We don't need to see you flashing genitalia or putting up parade floats looking like the same body parts. Pity I stay away from that garbage, otherwise I'd take pictures and videos and denounce it firsthand. Maybe I should, as some wouldn't believe that's what they actually do IN those parades. Pride? How about hubris, selfishness, and arrogance.
Oh, Roseanne was right and should not have to apologize for telling the truth about the narcissism. posted 05/17/2008 at 09:54:50

Why would I want to watch or need to know about it? As gays like to say, it's nobody's business and it shouldn't matter.
Also, "marriage" is a religious concept. "civil union" is a political one, by and of and for the people. Those who run the religion can decide who gets married. The people can decide who qualifies for "civil unions". The more *they* want to mix the two words only shows disrespect to those in the religious community, which is why "civil unions" were thrown into "marriage" amendments and the like. Because *they* are so over the top, militant, and ignorant. posted 05/17/2008 at 09:44:25

It was about selfishness, not rape.
Indeed, Roseanne made an interesting tirade she later apologized for. Having lived and left a community that isn't, I can proudly say she didn't need to apologize.
Yes, some of my beliefs are due to emotion. Others are because I've analyzed the viewpoints and (what's left of) society. For the greater good (notice how the gay issue always seems to pop up during election years), and because many gays (especially males) themselves don't care about it, why should anyone else?
And, yes, I do speak my mind. Because I do care. About everyone else. posted 05/16/2008 at 14:35:52

California Gay Marriage Ban Overturned: Major Updates
I agree - especially as you clearly understand the differences. Civil unions are up for the general public, religious rites can only be decided by the religions and those who represent them.
But having lived in the so-called "community" for a decade, before fully realizing how wrong I was despite fellow gays calling me "unevolved" for wanting a union, I disagree that it should be called a "community". Amongst other various nitpicks (is it pride to show off one's genitalia in public?)
I'm glad some out there actually want relationships, but in reality few do.
The "community" is wrong, and I regret supporting for something that isn't. posted 05/16/2008 at 14:44:36

As does asking forgiveness, on the provision one doesn't keep doing it.
And if "liberals" cared, they'd remove their trollish blinders and look at EVERY side to the story. (they love to tolerate men flashing their body parts and body part shaped parade floats too. If this gay thing was even remotely serious, nobody would tolerate such "outlandishness", for lack of more stern terminology.)

Lieberman: Bombing Iran Has A Certain Appeal To It
I find very little appealing about war, except there are times when it is necessary. Anyone being a "hawk" has little to do with the concept.
Now when it comes to Iran, did we not try the peace thing some 30 years ago, and all they did was play games? Color me naive, but if rogue nations won't play civilly, more stern methods may be necessary in the future. For example, how long does one say "Stop it" before calling the police?
That's not to suggest the US is the world's police, which is another debate, but given the choice, I'd rather not see Iran have nuclear-anything. I don't believe their leaders are trustworthy. posted 05/14/2008 at 17:32:53

Fed To Pursue Aggressive Crack Down On Credit Card Industry
So the reforms passed in, when was it, 2003 (or was it 2005?) didn't work?
Also, should we be bailing out solely the banks, the the people who got into the mess?
The interest rates alone surely would have kept the credit card industry bathing in money, not to mention our economy seems based ON spending and debt more than anything else.
Losing jobs to offshoring and other means hasn't helped the public either, but I digress - at 20~30% APR, it wouldn't take long for those companies to more than make up the money they loaned out on the plastic card. posted 05/02/2008 at 12:04:55

Uma Thurman's Naked Nightmare: Tells Letterman Of "Nipplicious Disaster"
Well, if men look, I hope she doesn't feel insulted or harassed.
If a male dressed in something similar, with bits of his wiener showing, it wouldn't be much different.
There is nothing wrong with modesty or decency either. Unless you're cheap and looking for a good time in some meat market; which is where people usually show their proverbial meat. posted 04/17/2008 at 18:56:50

GAO Slams Bush on Terrorism - Says Al Qaeda Attack Likely and We Have No Plan
Terrorism is an individual or group of people inciting fear in a nation's people, and/or government, as means to coerce said government to meet their demands.
9/11 showed terrorists no longer play the petty games, such as the 1972 Olympics.
How can anyone talk to a group of people who only want to see you dead and have already gone to such extraordinary lengths to do so. posted 04/17/2008 at 19:11:55

Michael Bloomberg is a VERY respectable man, in word and in action. He cleaned up NYC's taxi system with hybrids. Meanwhile, other environmentalists on corporate boards, still huff and puff and only blow their own credibility down.
An Obama/Bloomberg ticket certainly sounds terrific... posted 03/27/2008 at 18:50:19

Robin Williams' Wife Files For Divorce
That is sick to say. Yes, every comedian has a style and after a while it gets tiring. And not everyone can appease the (m)ass media.

A McCain Moment: Do You Want Four More Years of This?
BinBaldwin - okay, let's pretend Clinton HAD dumped all this on Bush. What has Bush done to fix it? And how much of it is really their responsibility? Did the previous Bush dump on Clinton? How about Reagan's legacy onto Bush? Carter onto Reagan? How far backwards shall we go; or should we work on the future instead?
Regardless, since 9/11 there has not been a successful attack. And for all the tinfoil talk of Bush or Cheney letting a new attack happen so they can seize power and do all sorts of things, how would they convince the American people it's the right thing to do? Step in their shoes. I can't think of any reasons. Can you?
And, yeah, I've seen the clips on youtube when Cheney (1994) says we shouldn't go in and summarily depose. I've seen the clips of Al Gore saying we had to contain or get rid of Saddam too. Ditto for Clinton. The world will eventually be a better place without Saddam and his ungodly offspring, no argument there.

Well, I perceive it like this:
1. McCain is a moderate, and the claim is, he's trying to win back lost Republicans by saying he wants to keep the tax cuts (which are clearly hurting more than helping)... dunno.
2. Obama's ties with violent, racist organizations (e.g. Wright, and the Black Panthers, who had their banner on Obama's site until he was called on it. The Panthers are not a group of unity nor peace. Obama, should he get the nomination, has a LOT of convincing to do.
3. I think Clinton is toast. Pity. At least the 1990s, also under the view of a Clinton, ensured prosperity for Americans while helping the rest of the world. THAT is the America I miss, and we need help right now; this has nothing to do with bootstraps; our future seems at risk. And she's at least been consistent on foreign policy issues... and she extended the hand of "dream team" to Obama, who in turn said this is a race for only one to win.
May Hillary win.
But I digress. Like the flag pin incident, Obama has indeed showed us in action, and thanks to those he has associated with, the underlying truth. Obama, nominally, was on the ball about uniting America, but I'm no longer convinced. So much has come out against him... even keeping his white relatives out of the picture; is there something else going on to deserve that? Or was it because they're white? posted 03/25/2008 at 17:18:51

Clinton, Obama Reconciliation Becoming More And More Impossible
Ironic. Candidate Obama, the "uniting" candidate, won't let up despite being neck and neck with Candidate Clinton. This plus any number of recent events coming to surface (those who sponsor or speak up for him, many of which seem to be involved in pretty nasty causes); if it's Obama vs McCain, Obama is going to have an insurmountable uphill battle.
Maybe it's for the best Candidate Obama played arrogant when turning down Candidate Clinton's request. More true colors are revealed. A shame; I really liked the guy... but now, his actions and supporters are the ones unwittingly betraying him. I wonder why he'd let Farrakhan, the Black Panthers, this twerp of a pastor, and I hope there aren't any other violence-loving rabble associations speaking up for him...
(google Black Panthers Obama, and you'll find out -- they donated money, got their name on his web site, and later their advertisement was removed. I wonder if they kept the money...)
