• Whites-Only Fellowship Sparks Major Conundrum for Columbia University — Here’s How Officials Want to Fix It

  May 15, 2013 at 10:16pm

  I would expect them, then, to not accept any Gates Scholarship money or money from any of the other similar “minority only” scholarships

• Tsarnaev Mother: I Saw a ‘Very Interesting Video’ That Boston Bombing Was Like ‘A Really Big Play…Paint Instead of Blood’

  The mother regrets that they ever came to America and I sure as heck wish they had never come here, also. If she was guilty of shop lifting, she should not be allowed back in this country. Let the husband come and claim the body and take that garbage back with him. I hope this country doesn’t plan to pay for transporting the body.

• Why Is Farrakhan’s Cop Son Driving a Taxpayer-Funded Police Car and Carrying a Gun When He Hasn’t Worked a Shift in 4+ Years?

  Ahhh, Harvey, the old hometown. It’s really hard to believe what has happened to what was once a booming suburb with a high school rated as one of the best in the nation. The town is now known for run down housing, a still deserted mall where the Blues Brothers was filmed, and failing schools. When I looked this article up today, there was another story about Harvey. The mayor (Kellogg) apparently falsely thought that someone had stolen some of his cocaine (no kidding- the article actually stated that) and set him up for a false arrest. He sued and Harvey now owes him 1.4 million dollars. There is no doubt that with that kind of background/publicity, this mayor will be reelected with no problem. It’s the m.o. of the south suburbs.

• Radio Hosts Back on Air After Suspension for ‘Dihydrogen Monoxide’ April Fools Joke (That’s H20)

  April 3, 2013 at 11:25am

  In reply to socialistmop.

  since sodium will react with water and severely burn you, and chlorine was used as a deadly nerve gas in past wars, then sodium chloride must be doubly deadly. Similar nonsense logic was used to ban mercury metal from everything and anything after it was reported that people were dieing from methylmercury. Methylmercury is as much a form of mercury as sodium chloride is a form of sodium or chlorine.

• Bob Beckel Explodes With Fury at CBS for Airing ‘Idiotic’ Communist Propaganda: ‘Take That Show and Shove It!’

  March 21, 2013 at 3:47pm

  This is not the first time that the show has visited Viet Nam. A few years back, contestants had to go through the Hanoi Hilton where John McCains flight suit was on display. I don’t remember if there was any other propaganda display like this past weeks episode but I don’t remember any outrage back then about touring the notorious prison.

• Sens. McCain & Graham Dedicate Morning to Discrediting Paul Filibuster (Graham Even Uses a Shame Chart!)

  The idea that the govt could try to take away the right to bear arms and even take guns away from hunters is ridiculous. THe idea that govt could try tell me what to eat is ridiculous or that they can tell me that I can’t smoke in my own home is ridiculous. The idea that govt can try to just place on anything they choose is ridiculous. Oh, they’ve already done all those things. Don’t try to tell me now that it is ridiculous to think that the govt will at some point start spying on or taking out American citizens that it has deemed dangerous.

• These Are the Things That Could Be More Expensive in 2013

  December 23, 2012 at 1:15am

  The spin the other week was that an increase in purchases showed consumer confidence in the economy. I have been buying more myself the last few months– not from any feeling of confidence. I’ve been buying essential goods and stockpiling consumable items knowing that very soon those items will cost many times more. I could have waited a year or two for a new oven but decided that the $700 or so dollars now will be more economical that the two thousand it will cost in the near future.

• White House Responds to Mich. Rep’s Vow That ‘There Will Be Blood’: We’re Not Sure That Means What You Think It Means

  December 11, 2012 at 7:31pm

  How have the other states that have passed right to work laws been doing? Are workers getting less pay as the president claims?
  When a republican says that they are going to target a certain seat, they are accused of violent behavior. This idiot specifically says there will be blood, citing a violent incident where there was blood, and Obama’s office blows the comment off and claims they don’t necessarily really mean that????

• ‘They Were Children’: 7 & 11 Year Old Boys Attempt Armed Robbery in Oregon Church Parking Lot

  In reply to moonlight on the bay.

  No, they will leave them in school so the teachers can be blamed for not properly educating them

• The Twinkie Is Dead: Hostess to Close, 18K+ Layoffs Expected

  November 16, 2012 at 12:34pm

  What will I do without Twinkies and chocolate cupcakes??? When we were kids, my mother would go to the hostess shop and buy a grocery bag full of out of date Twinkies, cupcakes and snowballs. I remember them being 3 cents. She’d put them in the freezer and once a week or so we could have one. They’d last about 6 months before she got more. When I was a freshman in high school , I went in the food line and bought my first, FRESH, twinkie– not stale, not previously frozen for months, not flattened by other frozen stuff sitting on them in the freezer. As much as the old frozen ones were true treats, I will always remember how exquisite that first fresh one tasted and the soft texture. Back then, I think they were still made with real lard and were even that much better than the ones you (used to) buy today. Any time I have a twinkie now, I think back to that first one and that was 50 years ago.
