The Surprisingly Large Shadow of Adam Levine

22Apr10

I keep getting criticism on this post I had almost two years back now on the Kanye West song “Heard ‘Em Say.” Most of this criticism revolves around the idea that I seriously think Adam Levine hates white people–a group in which he’s included–and that he believes a that the government actually distributed the AIDS [...]

Ouch…

13Aug08

Truth hurts. I fear the worst about Hillary’s intentions for the DNC, but damn, I’m no Maureen Dowd. She took it to a new level in today’s piece. Now if only Dowd could go 100 words without calling Obama three different nicknames…. Obama also allowed Hillary supporters to insert an absurd statement into the platform [...]

John Dickerson is Really Overplaying his Hand

16Jun08

Slate’s headline story today is the Hillary supporters that may or may not jump ship to McCain. John Dickerson, the political director, is especially concentrating on the female Clinton supporters who feel wronged by the system, and are cutting off their reproductive rights and self respect despite their faces to vote for a man that dumped his first wife after she [...]

The Brief Hiatus and the Weekend that Was

11Jun08

Naturally, I chose to be busy during the not-so thrilling conclusion of the Democratic Primary, so apologies for not live blogging the “cracking of the glass ceiling.” Biggest Story: After somewhere between 16 months and arguably 50 some-odd years, Hillary Clinton has conceded that she will not be the Democratic nominee in 2008. If you’ve [...]

Alright, One Regret…

04Jun08

It’s clear now that Obama is the nominee, and it even seems like Clinton at least knows that internally. I never wanted to be the type of person that was a Hillary-hater before this campaign, but her actions dictated to me that I had no other choice. Still, I must say I long a bit [...]

Scott McClellan, You Thieving Douche!

31May08

Scott McClellan thought he was all cool or something this week, when he was all over cable TV promoting his groundbreaking book, What Happened. McClellan may even get to testify before congress based on the not-so-stunning revelation that the Bush administration did some really fucked up shit. Sorry, I sound bitter, but that bastard stole [...]
