Vote Vets Newer Ad: Rush Limbaugh is a big, fat phony

JM Bell | September 29, 2007

I’m not going to spend a lot of time editorializing about Rush Limbaugh, because the man makes me ill. So, to round up, heres what Crooks and Liars blogged about the giant douchbag: During the September 26 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh called service members who advocate U.S. withdrawal from Iraq [...]

JM Bell | September 29, 2007

General Petraeus’ “I Don’t Know” Ad From the VoteVets site: Of all days, on September 11, Americans were reminded that we need to be vigilant against real threats to America, and how our military is used will either help or hurt security.

Hypocrite Newt Gingrich Makes A Chicken Decision

JM Bell | September 29, 2007

Two legged irony Newt Gingrich has decided NOT to run for president. From this afternoon’s LA Times: Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker whose political striptease over running for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination went through even more layers of clothing than Fred Thompson, sent out a spokesman today to say that the Georgian had [...]

Afternoon's Tunes – The Monkees (don't you judge me!)

JM Bell | September 28, 2007

The Monkees were … a phase I went through, I guess. The first concert I ever went to was the Monkees reunion tour up at Lagoon with Gary Pluckett and the Union Gap Band, Herman’s Hermits and America. Honestly, It was a lot of fun and my dad was a champ for not only buying [...]

Super Secret Neo-Con "Iran War Planning Session" Meeting is over at the Grand America

JM Bell | September 28, 2007

Seriously, other than the dipshit sounding “He-Man Woman Haters Club” that Cheney and the Gang are playing at … I don’t know how they thought to keep the meeting a secret. One look at the Grand America in downtown Salt Lake City and, well … looks just like it did when the President popped in [...]

Afternoon's Tunes – The Dead Milkmen

JM Bell | September 27, 2007

I love The Dead Milkmen. When I first got my driver’s license, I would drive around with my friends and we’d all sing along very loudy and just as off key. From Wikipedia: The band’s musical style could be described, in general, as punk with a large dose of comedy. For the most part, irreverence, [...]

Questions about the "Blogit" blogging service

JM Bell | September 27, 2007

Does anyone use it? It’s $12.95 a month … to blog? What’s that all about? I’m wondering if they have RSS or ATOM feeds, or do they hide that because they’re a subscription service? Seriously, 12.95 a month to blog? Why? WTF?

Russert For Prez? Another Debate where the moderator wont STFU.

JM Bell | September 26, 2007

From Senator Dodd’s website, the Talk Clock:     Since when does polling constitute who gets to speak the most at a “debate.” Granted, this open field free for all with both parties leads to some of the disparity, but, who the hell wants to listen to the moderator editorialize? Good lord, people, ask the [...]
