I thought the entire show was awful...the setting, the songs, Madonna, and all the supporting cast. I understand someone named M. I. A. flipped off the crowd, which would include all the TV viewers...what can you expect from someone whose name means Missing in Action. Who hires people who insult missing soldiers....NBC, who else. Madonna looked as if she was afraid of falling off her shoes....and I thought singing about "yourself" was a little more than tacky. I wish they would go back to simple half-time shows...at least we wouldn't be subject to fools trying to get their 2 seconds of fame.
It is a philosophy I believe. The insidious do-gooders love to tell you they are humanitarians...they hate War....they want women to be safe....yet they do nothing to support independence. Obama gave 1% of his income to charity, Biden $367.00....they are tight fisted and stingy on their way to becoming more 1% than ever, probably because they do not believe individuals should give...that is the provenance of Big Brother.....plus it keeps them flush....and us broke.
I just read where the Komen Fund has decided to fund PP after all, because of all the negative comments and emails they received, including many of their satellite chapters which said they would defy Komen's decision. Is this where the divide in this Country stands...abortion supporters saying the hell with women with breast Cancer, and all because of a sickness of moral spirit. The fact that Komen's donations increased 100% should have told them they had support, but I guess they didn't have the stomach to do the right thing. I wonder if those who sent money because Komen said they would not fund PP will ask for their money back.....I think I would.
This is off topic but did you read this article "Cleveland councilman wants to pull Komen permit"? It seems a Cleveland Councilman named Zack Reed wants to pull the permit for the Breast Cancer march/event, because they stopped funding Planned Parenthood. This evil little troll, who obviously prefers the policies of death, aka abortion, to people fighting to find a cure for Cancer. He is about as vile a politician I have heard about in ages, aside from the usual.... If you live in Cleveland, you need to inundate the Mayor's office with your disgust...and hopefully they didn't go along with this creeps suggestion. Re: the painting which was the topic...I can't enlarge it enough but does it show clapping at something in the LR corner, and who is the other "clapper"?
I loved "Utopia" as one of the Countries starting with the letter U. At least they didn't think we had 57 States. I thought the interviewer was great...and the kids, while ignorant, seemed nice and good natured...just the sort to keep us as happily mediocre as the Teachers and their Unions want .
I think the Mutt issue is Moot. I have a great dog, a beautiful German Shepherd....and had many dogs in my lifetime...69 years....and I think given the context of the time this occurred, given wanting to take your dog on vacation, it was something many people would have done. When my son was an infant, we not only didn't have seat belts in our cars, but there were no car seats...today I would be arrested for taking an infant in a car without a car seat. I personally would never put my dog on a plane...yet many do, and that is considered fine.....go figure. To me, it is a silly issue.
Illegals need to go home. They should be ashamed to even think of demanding anything. They should be thankful for the largesse America has bestowed on them already, and show their appreciation by taking their rude, greedy, self serving children back to wherever they came from. They are part of the reason Mexico, in particular, is a thug ridden, cartel controlled Country. Will they destroy America as well? If their children were born here, they can some back when they are adults....but each time I hear about a protest by illegals, and they are criminals, I wonder why they don't go back to their wonderful homeland...the one they want to convert America too...the one whose flag they think should be flown over schools paid for by American taxpayers....such avaricious, disloyal people are not the stuff good citizens are made of....they really do need to self deport themselves.
I think Newt is a Newtite....there is no room in his persona for Country, just his ego. Watching him "come out" in the past few days has cemented my gut reaction that he is one more egotistical, power mad man with no real understanding of the Constitution or what the Founding Fathers sacrificed for....nope, he is a "me" person.....like Obama.
I don't think Gingrich is about "us" or about the USA, he is about Gingrich...as Obama is about Obama. You may not like Romney, possibly because he is the Country Club Choice, but he is now MY man. Having watched the self serving Gingrich and President, make American's problems all about them, I can honestly say they are like twins separated at birth....no difference in their personality or egos. Both will give amnesty to millions of law breakers, both are simply egotistical trolls. I hope Hillbuzz takes a closer look at Newt as he not only freaks out Anne Coulter, but me as well. Aside from Santorum, who I don't think has a chance, the only one I trust is Romney.
I don't know or care about what Oprah is doing, but I do care about what I preceive to be the "real" Newt finally coming out. He just admitted his claim about offering witnesses to ABC News in his defense — to rebut his second wife, Marianne Gingrich — was not true. And now, he has practically said he would grant AMNESTY to millions of illegals.....fast track for those in the military, work permits for those who will become citizens at a slower pace. I had heard he says whatever the audience wants to hear, and it seems to be so, but if that is the True Newt, he is as much a dishonest chamaeleon as Obama, and for me, he is anathema.
