• Scattered Showers of Journalism: Reporters Band Together to Get Straight Answer on ‘Cherokee’ Question from Flustered Warren

  May 25, 2012 at 12:41pm

  President Obama is 16x whiter than Ms. Warren is Cherokee…

  He’s 16/32nds white, she’s 1/32nd Cherokee…

  Just an observation.

• Scattered Showers of Journalism: Reporters Band Together to Get Straight Answer on ‘Cherokee’ Question from Flustered Warren

  Apparently Warren is trying to get out of this issue the way Rubio got out of his story last year regarding his parents and fleeing Cuba – the “it’s what my parents told me” defense.

  Difference is, Rubio made some statements that were later proven false, some that showed he was unsure about the facts – Warren is consistent that she is 1/32nd Cherokee.

  BTW, Fractional Cherokee blood does not qualify one as a Cherokee: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherokee#Tribal_recognition_and_membership

• ‘The View’ Ladies Side With S.E. Cupp Over Hustler Photo During Studio Interview

  May 24, 2012 at 3:05pm

  Hasn‘t Roseanne’s carrer catapulted her all the way to her “reality” show where she grows macadamia nuts in Hawaii? What the flip did she do with all her TV series money? It’s in syndication, she should have a steady stream of cash rolling in…

• One Shocking Thing You Didn‘t Know About George Stephanopolous’ Wife (or Probably Wish You Didn’t)

  May 24, 2012 at 2:49pm

  And in comparison, George Stephanopolus was a step up – he likely didn’t insert jewlery to try and impress his girlfriend…

  Why, on god’s green earth, did she think he was checking his “sit upon” for polyps while he was in the shower? Ladies, if there’s any doubt – this is NOT the male form of self-examination for cancer!

  Whoopi has opinions, and the intelligence to defend her opinions, but not all of her opinions are correct – at least, that’s my opinion.

• University Study Determines Fox News Has Least-Informed National Audience Based on These Questions

  May 24, 2012 at 9:57am

  This reminds me of the Liberal “study” that “proved” conservatives don’t read books – despite the phenomenal slaes volumes of conservative books at the time, including “The Road to Serfdom”.

  It took what, about 24 hours to completely dismiss that argument…

• Safeway Employee’s Suspension for Defending Pregnant Woman Draws Nationwide Protests

  May 22, 2012 at 11:46am

  It’s an insurance/Liability thing, nothing more.

  Imagine this scenario, imagine if Safeway had a policy that said “Emplyees are required to intervene in disturbances inside the store when customer safety is at risk” – they would be “efectively” deputizing their employees as security personnel, which would require every employee to undergo appropriate training to perform in such a situation, and what if the employee gets hurt? Workman’s Comp, cost of healthcare, etc. all come into play. And what if the employee is an elderly woman and she sees two young men pounding each other? Is grandma supposed to jump into the fight and try and stop it OR RISK LOSING HER JOB?

• MSNBC Panelist Compares Ann Romney Comment With Stalin, Hitler

  May 14, 2012 at 9:38am

  So a “crown” is just like a “cross” – is it because they both start with the letter “C”?

  A crown is a sign of nobility, a cross is something they used to nail people to (to borrow a line from “Scrooged” – Bill Murry’s character had that written on the wall of his office).

• MSNBC Panelist Compares Ann Romney Comment With Stalin, Hitler

  May 14, 2012 at 9:34am

  Really? This is where the discssion of our Presidential Candidates has devolved to – phrases by candidate spouses that “remind” a writer of something “like” Hitler and Stalin did?

  I can not imagine the stupidity that will spew from the left come October – will they be photoshopping old pictures of prison camp ovens onto op-eds by Anne Romney‘s cookie recispie in Good Housekeeping and say that’s what cher really means when she talks about “cooking”?

  If this is all you’ve got “Left,” then you aint’ got much…

• Georgia Law Blocks Autistic Student From Graduating

  In reply to chrishw.

  Giving the child a waiver for the same math requirement other HS graduates have to meet really doesn’t do him any favor – if he took his HS diploma and went to college he’d need to pass a math test to graduate college… Giving him the illusion of a diploma he didn’t earn does little more than give him something to frame, and set him up for another ‘wavier battle’ to graduate college.

  The he should look for a commercial film school, learn a trade, and attempt to enter the movie business that way.
