— Maetenloch I'm back my pretties!
Newsweek (and Obama) Jumps The Rainbow
Okay at this point it's well known that Newsweek columnist Andrew Sullivan is a single-issue writer/kook - everything revolves around gay marriage. And he will rearrange entire worldviews, logic systems, and even his own memories to always make it so that support for gay marriage is the 'conservative' choice.
But how did this crap ever get past the editors to make it to the cover of a major 'serious' news magazine? The very fact that Newsweek would let a crank like Andrew Sullivan write a front-page story for them shows how far the overvalued-at-$1 magazine has fallen.
Sad.
Washington Post Ombudsman Admits They're Shameless Hacks
In response to suspicions that their story on Romney's 1965 'gay bullying' was a weakly sourced story (it contained a quote from a dead man) and was timed to help the Obama campaign:
That's a fallacious appeal to authority. Just because David Maraniss had a hand in it and a committee of liberals handed him a trophy does not make this story factual or fair. Walter Duranty won a Pulitzer too.If I were an editor I might have sped it up a little, too, to take advantage of the national discussion on gay marriage. Does that mean Post editors are timing stories with the White House? I hope not, and I doubt that is the case.But he didn't pick up the phone and ask them, so deep is his curiosity on the subject. Pitiful.
The accusation that the Post times a big story to assist a president in the midst of a re-election battle is kind of a big deal. It's an accusation that the Post is engaged in partisan propaganda, not journalism. It's worth looking into.
Merida said they held the printed version for a day because they didn't want it clashing with the Thursday front page coverage of Obama changing his mind on gay marriage."It just happened to coincide with the time when President Obama made his statement. We factored it in and that was the decision not to run it in print on Thursday," Merida told me.It just happened to coincide.. Sure.
The Post's ombudsman thinks we're stupid.

Unclear on the Concept - Part Deux
Being a Socialist leader means you get to inflict Socialism on other people:
"Socialist Hollande owns three homes on the Riviera," according to the London Evening Standard. "Francois Hollande, 57, who 'dislikes the rich' and wants to revolutionise his country with high taxes and an onslaught against bankers, is in fact hugely wealthy himself."
If the United States Was a Movie...
This would be its trailer. And I'd actually be lured out of the lighthouse to go see it.
Books Every man Must Read - Part Two
- The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
- The Republic by Plato
- Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy
- Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
- The Kentucky Derby is Decadent &
Depraved by Hunter S. Thompson
Well as is usual I've only read 1.5 of these. Luckily HST's essay on the Kentucky Derby is available online so I should be able to bump my score up to 2.5 fairly easily.
Ford To Start Making Cars Out of Money
Well not the whole thing but pieces of it:
As part of an ongoing effort to find sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based vehicle components, the Michigan-based multinational automaker is looking to re-use retired dollar bills in the manufacture of trays and bins, in the same way wheat straw is currently used in the Ford Flex.
Well according to scientists - top scientists! - your best shot is at 11pm on Saturday night since that's when women's sexual appetite peaks.
There's a time and a place for sex, and latest research suggests for women their desire peaks at 11pm on a Saturday night - the venue TBC.The finding is just of the statistics to emerge from a nationwide study investigating the truth behind female libido.
The next best time - Thursday mornings.

The lefties always go too far. And especially the gay mafia. Give an inch, they take a mile. They just can't help themselves. On top of it all, some people will think Time is reporting that Zero is actually gay. Which he probably is, but I don't think Time meant to out him.

Hollande doesn't "hate the rich", he loves power. The power to command and re-distribute wealth. Especially wealth that he hasn't earned. It was the biggest con game of the 20th century. And it is still going strong. Besides the wealth and potential it has squandered, it has probably been responsible for killing millions in Europe and Asia.
Fraternity! Equality! Liberty!
It sounds better in French, but to me it sounds like bullshit. The guy is a well - dressed looter, and that's what the French voted for. Of course, he has a lot in common with Jerry Brown of California, Dick Durbin of Illinois, Chuck Schumer of New York, and a host of other politicians. And especially the SCOAMF, Barack Hussein Obama.

And how is 1.5% of the population voting for him going to get him a second term?
I'm always amazed at how very, very stupid some people can be. You wanna be gay, by all means do so. You wanna run for president, you better pick your perversions a little more carefully.

As someone cogently said (that's you, Marie), Obama has gone a long way in solving the voting decisions of the so-called Evangelical SoCons. They might even get motivated to vote for Romney now.

I don't think they were so worried about that miniscule voting block but more about getting money from that block. Which is likely more substantial than their numbers. Afterall you can have quite a bit of spending money if you don't have kids.

Can a popular news publication stoop any lower? And they wonder why they have no credibility with the boobs in flyover country?
However, the flip side of the Dems factional politics is to make it harder to govern the country as a whole. In the Democrat out years it gives the press plenty of fodder to attack the Republicans in government for not being sensitive to the Democrat factionalist narrative.

That magazine cover is just...wow. If a conservative would have made it, it would be considered a terrible hatchet job. I just can't comprehend how it got past the editors.
A lot of folks who just look at the magazine covers in the grocery aisle but don't buy them are going to think the President's gay (NTTAWWT). That's not the selling point that Andi and the Newsweek editors seem to think it is.
And the gaylo is just beyond parody--conservatives have been pointing out the way the palace guard media backlights the SCOAMT in pictures so that he has a halo of light, and so they go and Photoshop a real halo in? Weird.
This just may be Obama's Michael Dukakis moment.

I've read enough stuff by the boys at Hillbuzz (who know a thing or two about being gay in Chicago) to suspect that the SCOAMT is on the down low, no doubt.
However, in a country where almost every time gay marriage comes up for a popular vote it gets voted down, I can't comprehend how the Obamabots at Newsweek ever thought this was a bright idea.

I am offended not only by the obvious connection they are making between religiosity and sexuality, but by the lack of dignity in the entire discussion.
We have serious problems in this country -- perhaps existential ones -- and for Newsweek to be concerned with this crap is to demean the plight of the millions who are unemployed because of Obama, and to minimize the crushing of the American spirit at the hands of this pretender.

OK, I'm going to full nerd on you now.
If you were to imagine these Marvel heroes modelled as characters in a role-playing game, like a real pencil-and-paper game, you could build them all on about the same number of points. For Champions, they're all about 750 points, or a little more than twice as powerful as a "standard" hero in that game.
On the other hand, Superman is something like 1400 points, while Green Arrow is more like 350.
How do I know this off the top of my head? I used to spend a ton of time doing this. Full. Nerd. Motherfucker.

Smith does a lot of things really really poorly; like not know how to end movies well. The ending of "Chasing Amy" was such absolute would-never-fucking-happen garbage that only having Ben Affleck portrayed as a complete asshole made it tolerable for a very bad reason. "Dogma" was one of the biggest fucking wastes of my time I've ever endured. Even watching "Clerks" a second time, when I knew what to expect as far as situations went so they lost their humorous shock value, revealed what a poorly made movie it was. I can see no way that he wouldn't make an complete disaster of a JLA movie.

This is what we forget, and it's good to get a reminder: our enemies on the left aren't supermen, aren't genius conspirators playing four-dimensional chess. They're idiots. They believe idiotic things, they come up with idiotic policies, and sometimes their idiocy trumps their long-accumulated political savvy.
The current crop of Democrats aren't the old streetwise machine pols. They're grad-student lounge liberals and "activists" who don't know anything. Their media wing is all "professional journalists" who really know absolutely nothing.

I imagine once people see this Newsweek cover and start Googling "Is Barack Obama Gay?," they're going to learn more than they ever imagined.

My wife and I just watched Cinderella Man. Pretty good flick. I checked Braddock and his manager, Gould, out on wiki. Turns out they went in the army during WWII. I found some interesting stuff. Please forgive the copy and paste.
1) As Braddock's manager, Gould negotiated as part of the deal for Louis' title shot 10% of Louis' future purses. Mike Jacobs, who represented Louis, believed he would be able to talk his way out of the contract at a later date, but it is a little-known fact that Braddock and Gould became relatively rich men even after Braddock lost the title because of this deal.
2) Gould enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1942, and rose to the rank of First Lieutenant, accidentally shooting Sergeant John Bender during a photo op in which he and Braddock did rifle calesthenics. He was dismissed from the Army and sentenced to three years hard labor after a court martial in 1944 for conspiracy to accept bribes.

He doesn't write guest editorials trading on his fame. And most importantly, his movies don't include snide little seat-kicking "jokes" about conservatives or Republican politicians.

Obama has been so helpful to gay rights (NOT).
Has Obama actually done anything for Gay rights and LGBTS like actually signing the Executive Order that is on his desk?
How about requesting Congress to repeal DOMA?
All he has done is mouth a few words about his "evolving" position and metaphorically sucked blew in the ears of a few gays in exchange for a large amount of campaign contributions from the gay rights crowd.

I was almost ready to go to a movie theater for the first time in several years and heard about that. I'll just download it in a few months after the Blu-ray release. Despite living in Los Angeles County I get a little tingle every time a film or TV leaves the region. I'd like to see Hollywood go into the same death spiral as the publishing industry and bee replaced by many, many small independent companies.

One of my literature profs had us read several passages from different translators to get a sense of just how important your translator is ...
But then, there still are incredible copyright wars on, and if the first person to get the translation copyright is a absolute boring boor, you enjoyment of the book is nil.

True but Harlow was tiny. A little over 5'1" and petite. This was very handy for making the men playing opposite her look bigger without them standing on a crate or her in a hole dug in the ground.

I don't think she'll leave him, for much the same reason Hillary hung in. You get more SWAG as the wife of an ex-US Prez than as a zero in your own right. Plus, Michelle would have to watch him whooping it up ever after with every hawt young thing that crosses his path. I don't think he's gay either. She'd have to watch him doing younger women.

Downey regained his cred a long time ago. But he also made a lot of noises about having had his eyes opened about how the world really works. I don't care how he votes. But major monetary support? Screw him. His salary will have to be assembled from a source other than myself and people who feel the same.
If I was shopping for a car I wouldn't ask the salesman who he voted for. But if there is a big Obama poster in the window, I'll just keep going to the next guy down the street. I don't have any excess cash to throw at politicians but I'll exert whatever small influence I can.

Obama has been so helpful to gay rights (NOT).
Has Obama actually done anything for Gay rights and LGBTS like actually signing the Executive Order that is on his desk?
How about requesting Congress to repeal DOMA?
All he has done is mouth a few words about his "evolving" position and metaphorically sucked blew in the ears of a few gays in exchange for a large amount of campaign contributions from the gay rights crowd.

Think about the foreign affairs implications of that cover for a moment. In one fell swoop these asshats just damaged his ability to engage with largely Catholic and Muslim countries -- Iran being the most important at the moment.
Internally, the Iranian press will have a field day with this painting Obama as spaz who should be put on the gallows with all the other gays in Iran. All his credibility and negotiating position have been irreparably compromised.
No sitting president can allow the domestic media to compromise their ability to deal with the affairs of the nation...particularly when it involves trying to handle a hostile nation in the process of developing nuclear weapons.

There's already backlash among black pastors who were Obama supporters. They can't tell people who to vote for (or they'd lose their tax exempt status), but they're now telling people to "vote their conscience" with the obvious implication being people shouldn't vote for Obama.
I expect to see a suppressed black turnout over this and the huge unemployment among blacks. They may not vote for Romney, but a lot may just stay home.

People thought this pseudo-intellectual shit in "Dreams" was profound? It verges on dadaism. Since when is America's consumer culture comparable to a woman? Why is the bosom of America's consumer culture soft and forgiving? Forgiving? Of what?

I made a comment at Breitbart about the WaPo shenanigans because some d'bag was spouting nonsense.
I wrote this in reply and got 655 likes. (an all time record for any comment of mine where they can be "liked")
Plus there where numerous comments of "Amen" etc and THEY were all flagged to about 100 each.
The guy I responded to? His comment was flagged and removed for review. Heh.
I pray they don't pull some shite and steal this election. I think if they do, this country will explode. (and not in courts like the lefties did over Algore.)
Here's my comment about WaPo:
Got lost on your way to #OccupyMyMom'sBasement?
Please go somewhere else where your ignorance and childish petulance is lauded and applauded by like minded (I use that term loosely) commenters.
YOUR golden boy is a pandering felonious liar who hates America, hates it's people and is too arrogant to realize he's the failure. He'll be gone in November and we'll be working hard to repair the damage he and his ilk have done but we'll never forget the media's calumny and borderline treasonous lies that they promulgate for the sole purpose of getting the crypto-marxist re-elected.

Oh yeah. Solitaire. Lead to a nice wet dress shot in Playboy's roundup that year.
On the pervy side, the link below is a children's show she did a bit earlier. There is another earlier place where she did an Alice in Wonderland turn where she was amazingly cute but I've never found it again.

The imported Double Deckers played on CBS on Saturday mornings when I was a kid but I don't recall that particular segment. The show I recall was a gang of kids who seemed to live in an abandoned eponymous bus, or used it as a clubhouse or something. It may have been my age but it was kind of surreal and hard to follow at times. Like the Monkees.
Peter Firth? Wow.

The pilot episode of CSI: New Orleans.
Our lead character, Det. Kay Gin is introduced but is immediately overshadowed by Jane Seymour wearing nothing but sperm whale perfume ...

True fact.
Seriously, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt make the best onscreen gay couple.

I turn the bathroom lights off hoping that my quantum particles get all foamy and then turn the lights back on really fast hoping the wave function collapses into something taller, darker and with huge pecs.

Really? The guy is a freakin' legend. The whole blues brothers schtick was a just a revival of Duck Dunn grooves. Every thing he ever did was tight, solid, danceable, and inventive. Even his simple licks are so smooth they are hard to master. A mediocre player can fake them pretty fast, but to play them with the class and precision he had is a challenge.

I'd be surprised if you don't find out that you have already heard a lot of it before, somewhere, at least once.

His relationship with Alabama Senator William Rufus King? Creepy, but probably wasn't homosexual.

President Buchanan, bachelor, was engaged to Anne C. Coleman but she died before they were married. /551. Scrooge was not gay, either.

Second, does this now mean we can...ahem...raise questions about whether Sasha and Malia are really Barry's kids? I ask this because it'd probably piss Andy off even more royally than Barry.
