The Republican candidates suck! All of them, they’re horrible and unelectable. From Mitt Romney to Ron Paul, they all have problems and since the Iowa Caucuses has whittled them down to just three (Romney, Paul, Santorum) it’s much easier to reflect on just how bad some that stepped down were. Here’s how fucked up all the GOP candidates are in one or two sentences. January 5, 2012 - 0 Comments - 77 views
Gay soccer Mom Anderson Cooper has been down in the dumps recently, no, it’s not because his daytime talk show Anderson isn’t doing that well, it’s actually doing really well. Anderson has been seriously bummed lately because encouragement from Cooper and his shows producers might have put a teen in the hospital. October 4, 2011 - 0 Comments - 263 views
Tonight is not a great night for Donald Trump. Earlier tonight at the press correspondents dinner, Obama spoke and since Trump was in attendance, Obama took the opportunity to hammer him on The birth certificate nonsense. It was not pretty and by the end of Obama’s speech the entire crowd was laughing at Trump. It was a bit of a rude awakening from the man who takes himself so seriously, one wonders if he will still consider running for president.
Later on, Seth Meyers took to the stage …May 1, 2011 - 0 Comments - 532 views
Earlier in the week shock jock Howard Stern took a break from his Sirius Radio show to sit down with Piers Morgan on CNN. Morgan, who judges on America’s Got Talent, just replaced Larry King.
Stern doesn’t do many interviews, so it’s very fitting that this is Morgan’s first interview. That’s not to say that it went off without a hitch though. As the two began to discuss Morgan’s new show, Stern complimented him, saying he loves him on America’s got talent, but he had no …January 18, 2011 - 0 Comments - 991 views
Tonight’s Golden Globe Awards were filled with their shares of surprises, mostly though, the night’s focus was on Ricky Gervais and his no-holds barred comedic thrashing of many of the stars attending the awards. After taking jabs at Charlie Sheen, Cher, and Tim Allen, Gervais was whisked away for most of the show, one assumes producers were not liking his act.
I have to admit this was one of the most entertaining Golden Globes in a long time, it was more of a roast of …January 17, 2011 - 0 Comments - 1,601 views
On Real Time with Bill Maher this evening, Maher started the show by touching on the tragedy in Tucson. Last week, Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was shot in the head by deranged shooter Jared Loughner, Loughner also killed five others, including Christina-Taylor Green a 9 year old girl that was born on 9/11. Sarah Palin was immediately the subject of controversy as she had written crosshairs over Giffords in Tea Party promotional material during the midterm elections.
Earlier in the week, Maher commented saying that Republicans were mostly responsible for …January 15, 2011 - 0 Comments - 3,741 views
Religion in the army has been a hot-button issue since it was discovered that the army is handing out bibles to troops. It turns out the army considers “spirtual well-being” as a strength for soldiers. Why? Well, the army is worried that troops without beliefs will be easier to break down. Without a belief in a higher power, without someone watching over you, you’re more likely to cave to the demands of a tormentor (or so the army thinks).
USA today is reporting that a group of over 220 soldiers …January 14, 2011 - 0 Comments - 1,133 views
Earlier this week after the shooting in Tucson and after Gabrielle Giffords somehow survived a gunshot wound to the head, there was a memorial service held for all those that died during the tragedy. After an opening prayer and some words by Janet Napolitano and others, Obama came out to address the crowd and to memorialize the victims. For the first time in a long time, both sides have come together and ignore their partisan differences and reflect on this tragedy.
Unfortunately, …January 14, 2011 - 0 Comments - 879 views
During his acceptance speech for an Indie Impact Award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival, actor and former rapper Mark Wahlberg gave the audience quite a surprise when he decided to talk about his former drug use.
While accepting his award, the 39 year old Walhberg admitted that he used to smoke marijuana but he said he has since quit. It started when Walhberg compared the award he was receiving to a bong.
“But I don’t use those anymore” he said quickly after the joke.
As it turns out, …January 13, 2011 - 0 Comments - 1,046 views
Earlier tonight on The Rachel Maddow Show, Rachel discussed the heart-breaking shooting earlier this week in Arizona. In the days since the shooting accusations have been heaped from both sides but none with real merit. Bill Maher told Anderson Cooper he thought the right is partly to blame, while Bill O’Reilly says that Democrats have been “repulsive” in the way they have approached this situation. Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart weighed in as well, both with the kind of …

Earlier tonight, on the O’Reilly Factor, Bill seemed to be in damage-control mode as he went on the defensive for Fox News. O’Reilly said he was disgusted with the New York Times, Paul Krugman, and MSNBC. O’Reilly referenced various sources that cited the increasingly crazed Republican rhetoric leading up to and after the midterms. O’Reilly called the New York Times reprehensible, he said that if you disagree with the Times far-left views they attack you. The entire segment is very odd as it’s …January 11, 2011 - 0 Comments - 1,091 views
Earlier tonight on Anderson Cooper 360, Bill Maher sat down with Anderson Cooper to discuss the attempted assassination of Gabrielle Giffords that took place earlier in the week. Anderson asked whether it was fair to place blame on anyone but the shooter, Maher said that Jared Loughner was a nut but he also said that many of Jared’s ideas are very similiar to what Glenn Beck talks about on his show. Maher said he wasn’t specifically pointing out Beck but he said that …January 10, 2011 - 0 Comments - 1,360 views
TMZ is reporting that Chuck Norris is not too happy about a new popular strain of weed named after the ‘actor’. This isn’t the first time an actor has gotten peeved with marijuana producers. Back in April of 2008, Tom Cruise also discovered a new strain of weed donning his name. The strain, called ‘Tom Cruise Purple’, was said to make the user jump on to the nearest piece of furniture and praise Oprah (not really). You can see what they were going for though, if you smoke, you’ll become as crazy as Tom Cruise.
The Chuck Norris strain is called Chuck Norris Black and Blue Dream. A representative for Mr. Norris has said that Chuck Norris has not authorized his name for use and that Norris is not happy. It’s unclear if Norris will press charges or take any other measures but whoever created the strain better be careful… Chuck Norris is not someone to take lightly…

A recent study done by Gallup says that people that are very religious have a much higher well-being compared to moderately religious people. For their research, Gallup asked participants two questions. First, the importance of religion and second, how often they went to church. Gallup defined someone as “very religious” if religion played a big part in their daily life and they went to a mosque, church, or synagogue once a week.
Gallup’s research shows that the Jews reap the benefits of being super-religious more …January 10, 2011 - 0 Comments - 1,123 views
In this video Florida radio host Joyce Kaufman, speaking at a Tea Party Rally in 2010… says that “if ballots don’t work, bullets will”. Essentially, they are saying “if my party loses, we might start shooting people”. Well, you’ve gotten your wish Joyce!
Although Gabrielle Giffords has survived and appears to be conscious and responding to commands, she will have a long road of recovery ahead of her. Now that the initial incident has passed, reflection can begin.
The Republicans should really take some time to …January 9, 2011 - 1 Comment - 793 views
