Breitbart.tv : Jon Stewart Criticizes Obama's Handling of Libya

Tue, 29 Mar 2011 14:27:34 +0000

It took until the second 4 minute segment, but I'll admit, he hit some salient points, and brought some humor. I just wish everyone would stop treating him as a newsman. . .although, comparing to the asshats at the alphabet news companies. . .

Big Government : Surprise: Tom Brokaw Doesn't Know What He's Talking About on Guns

Does he 'frequent' a lot of bars anyway? Time for an Intervention.

Big Hollywood : The James Bond Chronicles: 'Goldfinger'

Sun, 16 Jan 2011 17:35:43 +0000

I've not seen this film in quite a long time, but reading your breakdown, I have to wonder - could it be possible that the character of GoldFinger (being the antithesis of Bond) might have been a homosexual? I'm going to have to dust off the DVD's and sit an watch with an eye for that. As well as the imagery you mention, I think I might have a more sophisticated eye (Thanks to you) and may take more from this film than previously.

I still pronounce her name that way.

Breitbart.tv : Liberal Star Blogger Ezra Klein: Constitution 'Has No Binding Power on Anything'; Confusing Because

Fri, 31 Dec 2010 15:33:54 +0000

In my opinion? Yes, the ownership of a gun makes you a militia member. Without obligation, or charter, or dues. The problem we run in to, when talk about it, is that a lot of people make the leap from 'militia' to domestic terror groups (KKK, Storm Front, Lady Gaga). A militia is a group of able bodied citizens ready, and willing, to take arms to defend the basic rights of others. If we nit-pick the details, we could go back and forth on this ad nauseum. Which rights? Which citizens? Who determines? They are valid questions, but we're not going to find a lot of common ground in the answers. As for bacon infused scotch, if you want to meet - perhaps - and discuss militias further...I could probably be persuaded.

Breitbart.tv : Liberal Star Blogger Ezra Klein: Constitution 'Has No Binding Power on Anything'; Confusing Because

Thu, 30 Dec 2010 21:43:43 +0000

There are some statistics in this piece, although poorly formatted for reading on a monitor. http://www.newsbatch.com/guncontrol.htm An interesting counterpoint can be found in Switzerland: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_Swit... CC in Texas: http://www.ncpa.org/sub/dpd/index.php?Article_ID=... You're gonna want to sit back, probably with a glass of sustainably harvested Pinot, and dig into this one: http://www.guncite.com/gcdgklec.html A short quote, even though that doesn't do much to defend my country: "...police have an error rate of 11 percent when it comes to the accidental shooting of innocent civilians, the armed citizens’ error rate is only 2 percent, making them five times safer than police." Newsweek Another bitty bit: “Guns in America: National Survey on Private Ownership and Use of Firearms,” by the Clinton administration’s Justice Department shows that between 1.5 and 3 million people in the United States use a firearm to defend themselves and others from criminals each year. A 1986 study by Hart Research Associates puts the upper limit at 3.2 million.

Breitbart.tv : Juan Williams: Palin 'Can't Stand on Same Intellectual Stage as Obama'

Isn't that the same degree Keith Olbermann has?

I especially like the part - at 0:56 - where he states that it [The Constitution] has 'no binding power on anything'. I should think, although I'm no Klein, that the Constitution is supremely binding in that it is the absolute law of the land. To be fair, it's early, and he's probably still hung over from sniffing his own farts all night. :)

'reasonable limits on the freedom of expression.' Is it just me? Or is there something inherently stupid in that statement?

I'd have given Al Pacino a shout out for his portrayal of Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade in Scent of a Woman. I introduced this movie to some of my employees, many of whom were only 7 or 8 when the movie came out - and now I'm getting sick of hearing quotes from it.

Oh, thank God! I've got an English degree as well, and it's nice to know I only have 13 more years of this "drunk, shirtless and weeping" crap. As it is, I'm gonna turn back to my polar bear burger, and wait for the next revelation from the 'revolution'.

Big Journalism : Obama Lies About the Supreme Court; Media Blames Justice Alito

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 00:07:08 +0000

I was shocked that he would be so...bold(?), as to attack any portion of the government in his SOTU. It not only smacks of amateurism, it strikes my ear as childish. I'm further incensed by the continued media bias in reporting these actions. It would only take a few of these journalists to call the President on his antics to put him back in line - their continued ignorance of this, and punishment of the wronged is slowly tipping their hands, that they don't care to report the truth - and would instead prefer to stoke unnecessary fires.

I think it was Will Rogers who figured it out: Prohibit any government from starting a new war, until they have paid for the last one.

If I had a dollar for every time someone told me to 'Shut up and be awesome.', I'd be able to afford a castle for myself.

Big Hollywood : NEA Stimulus Funds Pay for Porn

Thu, 30 Jul 2009 18:59:14 +0000

It bothers me more that as they begin funding these projects, there are dozens of small theater houses going under from a lack of funding. I won't argue the value of Thundercrack vs. Waiting for Godot - there isn't an argument that will please everyone, so it would be a waste of time - but, it is a shame that the one is getting $50,000 and the other is shuttering its windows.

David, I intended to read this post all the way through, as I do whenever your pieces come up on the headlines. But, you had to put in pictures. I can't focus on the words. . .scrolling back up. Talk to you later.
