Herman Cain said Black Democrats are brainwashed and he is right. Also, he is brainwashed and I am brainwashed. Hell, everyone I know is brainwashed to a certain degree by someone or something—some negative and some positive. My dictionary tells me that brainwashing is an intensive indoctrination, usually political, aimed at changing a person’s basic [...]

Worst Congress Ever?

On Chuck Todd’s MSNBC show recently, he had a segment asking the question “Is this the worst congress of all-time.” While I am not sure about all-time, it might be the worst of my adult life for the reasons discussed by former Senator John Breaux and Political Scientist Norm Ornstein.

10 Questions for 2010: Blue Dogs, GOP candidates, Political Journalism
Posted in politics, tagged African Americans, Blacks, blue dogs, CNN, democrats, Fox News, msnbc, Obama, republicans on September 2, 2010 | 2 Comments »
3. Are some Blue Dogs sidestepping the political heat? First, I have an original Blue Dog pin and will never sell it on Ebay. Blue Dogs are a unique breed of moderate to conservative Democrats, but they aren’t Republicans. If you think about it, the Democrat Party looks like America with diverse groups at the [...]
Fox News and MSNBC: Yellow Journalism or Healthy Debate?
Posted in politics, tagged Fox News, Glenn Beck, hate, journalism, msnbc on September 24, 2009 | 3 Comments »
The current political and media climate drove me to read a little about the Machiavellian principle of “The End Justifies the Means.” Clearly, many Americans have concerns with the size and role of the federal government; as others had issues with the previous White House administration. To me, we enter the public policy arena fairly, [...]
CNN: A Trillion in Healthcare Waste In America
Posted in politics, tagged CNN, Fox News, healthcare, msnbc, tort reform, waste on August 12, 2009 | 1 Comment »
CNN has me thinking with an open mind about all sides of the healthcare debate. Everyone has a study about this and an analysis about that but I personally turn to CNN for balance reporting and to FOX and MSNBC for commentary. The following story exemplifies the type reporting I prefer. If you only listen [...]
Palin, Isakson and The Healthcare Reform Debate
Posted in politics, tagged democrats, Isakson, lobbyists, msnbc, Obama, palin on August 8, 2009 | 5 Comments »
It is all about spin, knowledge and facts. The notion that the federal government will decide when Americans “plan” on dying is nonsense at the center of the healthcare debate. Sarah Palin chimed in yesterday that she did not want her parents or children standing in front of “Obama’s death panel.” Stop right there and [...]
Shep Smith in Wolf Blitzer clothing

I am watching MSNBC and wishing that they don’t be come the left version of Fox News. Keith Olberman and Bill O’Reilly are both journalists to me but Rachel Maddow is starting to smirk in a way that is as negative as those people on Fox in the morning—two wrong does not make…. Shep Smith, [...]
Shoe tossing and Tamron Hall

That blank blank guy who tried to hit President Bush with his shoes struck a nerve with me for a reason that seems to be escaping everyone else: the second shoe hit the American flag. If I were the American president (use your imagination) and knew our flag was behind me, I would have [...]
