El Twitter!

Best Tweet ever I think from (sadly) someone called Alex Jones #1 Fan:

A guy named “William Blaine Richardson The Third” called a guy named “Rafel Eduardo Cruz Jr” a fake Latino.

The inspiration fo rthat awesomeness is former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson saying current Texas Senator Ted Cruz, Jr. shouldn’t be called [...]

Sentence Under Review

Usually the only “Yelps” heard in prison are not so critical. “Not recommended.” When it comes to a firsthand prison review, do you really need to know anything other than that?

Believe it or not, that was the actual review from a Yelp user named “Ticha B.,” who reviewed California’s San Quentin State Prison . [...]

Big TImed?

Legal Insurrection has this great post up on changes in the conservative blogosphere since the 2008 election.

Thanks for the kind words, but I wish the reality weren’t so true that the days of collaboration and mutual support are waning.

It’s nearly impossible to get a link out of the new big names in conservative [...]

The Weiner Man is trying to make a comeback.

Anthony Weiner was a ubiquitous presence on cable TV before the sexting scandal that derailed his political career. Now, as he considers running for New York City mayor, the disgraced Democrat is back on the airwaves again.

The New York Observer’s political blog notes Weiner [...]

Burning Bush

Due to some faculty load issues (sabbaticals, leaves of absence, etc.) I was able to teach a couple of U.S. History II (since the Civil War) survey courses (all hands on deck) this past academic year. Nothing educates (or should educate) like teaching. I was finally able — forced in a way — to [...]

Narrative Dissonance

According to Jim Treacher… the above is a Twitpic of the guy who allegedly sent the Ricin-laced letter to President Obama and Senator Wicker (R-MS)… as he says… stay tuned to hear nothing about this guy — Paul Kevin Curtis of Corinth, Mississippi.

R.I.P. — Pat Summerall

And yet another piece of my childhood passes by. Pat Summerall, former NFL kicker for the New York Giants and long time NFL broadcaster has died at age 82.

For many sports fans in the 1960s through the 1990s, Pat Summerall was the voice of the NFL, starting with CBS’ Sunday telecasts and later [...]

Rights? Right.

“One solitary act of mass infanticide by a mentally-ill loner calls into question the constitutional right to guns, but a sustained conveyor belt of infanticide by an entire cadre of cold-blooded killers apparently has no implications for the constitutional right to abortion.” Mark Steyn

Who Does Number 2 Work For?

K-Mart apparently… Someone may have linked to this already… genius and viral.

R.I.P. — Jonathan Winters

I got this sad news earlier in the day of course and was unable to post it until now. Comedian Jonathan Winters has died at age 87.

Winters died Thursday evening of natural causes at his home in Montecito, California, according to business associate Joe Petro III.

Winters was known for his comic irreverence, [...]

Twilight of the Meritocracy

I don’t blog as frequently as I used to, but if you remember the olden days when JohnFN wasn’t busy raising a rambunctious 3-year-old, and wasn’t carrying on post-graduation while covering sports at a mid-metro, then you remember my favorite horse to beat was our current meritocracy, particularly the isolation of the middle class. The [...]

R.I.P. — Roger Ebert

Movie critic Roger Ebert has died from cancer at age 70. Here is the story from his paper The Chicago Sun-Times

For a film with a daring director, a talented cast, a captivating plot or, ideally, all three, there could be no better advocate than Roger Ebert, who passionately celebrated and promoted excellence in [...]

He’s Got the Measure of the Man

This guy pretty much has Obama summed up:

Harry Cole, news editor of the Guido Fawkes’ blog, was interviewed earlier this week on BBC Three’s Free Speech show. Asked about the Falklands issue by host Rick Edwards, Harry blasted President Obama’s refusal to recognise the Falklands referendum, describing him as “a hypocrite and a [...]

Natural Causes

I read this last week and forgot to post it. Ruth Steinhagen — a “Baseball Annie”, the OGs of modern stalkers — the woman who shot Philadelphia Phillie (and former Cub) Eddie Waitkus inspiring Bernard Malamud’s novella The Natural — and the Barry Levinson film natch — has died at age 83. The Washington [...]

Mission Accomplished

When George W. Bush made gaffes, the media and (so-called) intelligentsia were all a-twitter (or a Twitter) will all manner of how idiotic the evil BOOSH was (or was it evil genius?). When the Light Bringer makes gaffes they go unreported by American media. To be fair, it is hard to [...]

GOTCHA!

Don’t know who’s seen it, but it’s too delicious not to share.

 

This Day in Global Warming Climate Change Global Cooling News

Polar Bear Face Palm

Go here and read this:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2294560/The-great-green-1-The-hard-proof-finally-shows-global-warming-forecasts-costing-billions-WRONG-along.html “The graph confirms there has been no statistically significant increase in the world’s average temperature since January 1997.” Some Brits seem to be getting a little irritated on the billions of pounds wasted on this malarkey, and, the article doesn’t address this, but [...]

Gooooooooo, victim!!!!!

What do you do when the Department of Defense’s Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute offers nine suggestions on how a bystander should nonviolently deal with rapists … and produce an instructional video to accompany it? Well, if you’re Counter Contempt’s David Stein, you mercilessly expose the DoD/DEOMI for the joke they are … and produce [...]

I’ve seen the future and it should be …

… Kira Davis, telling it like it is. What say you, GOP “leadership”? What say you, Threedonia Nation? What say you, BarryO?

From now on the official party strategy should be to only send minority Republicans to do public events/interviews/appearances. Every picture, every brochure, every interview, every meet and greet, everyTHING the GOP does [...]
