Doctor: Cellphones Greater Cancer Risk than Tobacco

Who knows? Cellphones, despite how ubiquitous they've become, have only been around for like 15 years or so.

Fifty years ago no one thought cigarettes were deadly--indeed they were often a sign of virility or masculinity. Who can forget those old ads in magazines with muscular dudes advertising cigarettes? Or the Marlboro Man for Christ's sake.... Cell phones causing cancer? Probably not as far fetched as it seems....

Iraq, Clusterfuck

It's becoming increasingly clear that the result of America's five-years and running, $500 billion invasion of Iraq was to topple one homicidal maniac, Saddam Hussein, and replace him with another homicidal maniac, Moqtada al-Sadr. 4,000 dead. What a clusterfuck.

Mother of 4-year-old who took marijuana to day care charged

Talk about a cool thing to bring in to show and tell! Seriously, though, the deck of cards would seem to be stacked against this child with regards to being successful in life. I'm all for the legalization of marijuana, but not for 4-year olds....

Hillary Didn't Pay Campaing Health Insurance Bills

The walls have started to crumble in on Hillary in earnest now, and it won't be pretty. Super delegates have started breaking towards Obama, and her broke campaign is having serious cash flow problems.

Obama Goes Bowling in Pennsylvania

First McCain General Election TV Ad

The key to this ad comes at the very end: "The American president Americans have been waiting for..." Hmmm, just what are insinuating there, Mr. McCain? That perhaps that black guy with the Muslim sounding name isn't as "American" as you?? Very interesting indeed.

McCartney Wastes No Time After Divorce: Jets to Caribbean With New Babe

Now Paul take this one slow and for God's sake don't put your fortune at risk again by rushing to tie the knot. Hot MILF middle-aged women are a dime a dozen--it should be like shooting fish in a barrel for a billionaire rock star like you!!

Keith Richards: I Get Stoned All The Time

Not bad for a guy who's about to turn 65 years old. Apparently doctors all over the world have asked him to have access to his body once he dies--the man is a living miracle.

Hillary Clinton, Deadbeat

Perhaps the most measurable evidence that Hillary Clinton's campaign is about to end is the under-reported fact that it is going broke. Indeed, as this article reports, her campaign owes small businesses like caterers and event planners millions of dollars, and has stopped returning calls, e-mails and even certified letters asking for payment of past due bills. From their latest campaign public financial statements, it looks like Obama has $31 million on hand and Hillary Clinton has about $2 million. Enough said.

Dude, Where's My Bailout? The Myth of American "Free Market" Capitalism

An article in today's New York Times describes an interesting conundrum many Republican congressmen are finding themselves confronted with today: how to keep defending the increasingly hollow, decades old economic mantra of their party that 'capitalism and the free market will solve every financial problem' in light of today's massive foreclosures that is seeing many of their constituents being kicked out of their homes, plus the recent extraordinary federal government intervention into the 'free market' to back JP Morgan's takeover of Bear Stearns as well as pump billions of tax payer dollars into the financial system.

Indeed, it seems increasingly clear that Republicans are perfectly willing to bailout Wall Street on the taxpayer's dime and not Main Street. Regarding the foreclosures, an 'invisible hand/free market/government-is-evil' Republican might say, "The homeowner signed the contract, they new the terms, they can't afford the payment, they therefore need to suffer the consequences." However, why is it then ok to bail-out Bear Stearns by not letting it go bankrupt? After all, that company clearly orchestrated incredibly risky deals and were on the cusp of suffering the consequences, which would have been bankruptcy and a stock price of $0 before....whoosh! the federal government swoopes in and orchestrates a taxpayer insured Morgan takeover.

The point is that absolute, total faith in the myth of a complete 'free market capitalism' is a fools game in today's incredibly complex financial world--it just can't exist. Just like when a person's house catches on fire the fire department is called, when the shit hits the fan on Wall Street, the Federal Reserve is called in. Both events should be incredibly rare, and the presence of smoke alarms with regards to the house and heavy regulation with regards to finance, should diminish the likelihood of either happening with any kind of frequency drastically.

The polar opposite of the free market is communism, which also doesn't work. The truth lies somewhere in between, no doubt closer to free market capitalism but a free market capitalism that is heavily governmentally regulated. It's something quite a few Republicans might be realizing as they try to explain to their constituents who are losing their houses why Wall Street is more important than Main Street.

Does Condi Rice Want to Become Vice President?

Well this is indeed a very interesting story, and it makes sense for the Republicans. It would blunt some of the 'unique' factor of the Obama candidacy, and even gain McCain crucial support among women. Never mind the fact that Condi Rice has been a miserable failure as both National Security Advisor and Secretery of State, basically helping enable the neocons Rumsfeld and Cheney to impose their hard line foreign policy objectives to a mush-brained President Bush. Competence (Dan Quayle) has never been a prerequisite for Republican VP candidates.

12-Year Old Dallas Stripper Causes Dallas Officials to Ponder Law Change

12 years old and dancing naked in a strip club??? It almost defies the imagination: had this girl even hit puberty yet? Who were the weirdo's tipping her and stuff. Unbelievable. How did she get into this line of work?? Maybe I'm way out of touch but I thought 12-year olds were still into Barbie dolls and stuff...Something tells me her family life was something less than ideal.

Slate: The Hillary Deathwatch

This is a good article. It's amazing how terribly the media has covered this presidential election. Completely qualified Democratic candidates like Joe Biden, Chris Dodd, and Bill Richardson had literally 0% chance of winning the nomination due to the media's fixation and vested interest in having a Hillary/Obama horse race type clash. It was and continues to be a sad disgrace that should make all citizens extremely concerned about the health of our 'elective Democracy'. This is, after all, the same system that gave us George W. Bush--a proven moron with child like intelligence and judgement, two times!

Anyway, now some media outlets, Slate included, seem very proud of themselves for FINALLY writing about just how unlikely it is that Hillary becomes the nominee. Newsflash guys! This has been obvious to anyone willing to listen to facts and with an understanding of math and how to count for months now! I guarantee you people in other countries think that its still a 50/50 chance that Hillary wins the nomination, not to mention millions of Americans.

The reality is that the election has been all but over for months now, and it's a question of when--not if, Hillary eventually drops out. I don't buy into this widespread notion that having her still in necessarily damages the Democrats' chances in the general election, either. The fact is that John McCain is basically George W. Bush on steroids with regards to Iraq. And if you've been paying any attention to what's going on over there the past few days, you'd realize Iraq is erupting again. The war has become deeply unpopular with the American people. Let's hope the media covers the story.

Bush: Iraq’s Resurging Violence ‘A Very Positive Moment’

If you're anything like me you often find yourself scratching your head at how millions and millions of Americans could have voted for someone so clearly unqualified, so meagerly endowed with intelligence, so childlike, ignorant, and feeble minded for president--the most powerful job in the world--not once, but twice.

With regards to Iraq, this president clearly 'jumped the shark' in terms of credibility long ago, probably fours years ago when it was clear WMD's were nowhere to be found or something like that. However it still boggles the mind that he could be uttering such unadulterated garbage like 'increasing violence in Iraq is a good thing' and expect ANYONE to believe him or even take him remotely seriously.

In a way I find the story of George W. Bush inspirational. It proves that anyone can do anything in this world. Here we have the equivalent of a sponge-brained monkey as the leader of the free world. After all, no one is more powerful than the president of the United States and he happens to verifiably be a rank, verifiable ignoramus!

So go ahead folks, tidy up that resume like I am and apply for that job ten levels above where you currently are. If you are a middling, underpaid lawyer, call your congressperson and tell them you want to be considered for a spot on the Supreme Court. If you are a financial analyst, look up Warren Buffet's phone number, call him, and tell him you want to manage all of his money. If you're a guy and hot for Angelina Jolie, track her down and try to convince her to dump Brad and marry you. George W. Bush has served eight years as president. Anything is possible.

Earn Your Masters in Marijuana

This is a fantastic, entrepreneurial idea. It also plays in to the big new popularity of all things green and environmentally friendly. Anyone with common sense realizes that Marijuana should be completely legalized and heavily regulated, just like booze and cigarettes are. I'm still waiting for someone, anyone to tell me how whiskey and vodka are less dangerous and menacing to society as weed is....More on this discussion here.

Egg McMuffin inventor dies

At first glance this news might appear insignificant or indeed even un-newsworthy. If so I encourage you to re-read the headline and let it sink in for a bit. That's right, the inventor of the Egg McMuffin just died. Rest in peace. And God bless America.

This is pretty funny, although I must say a six lane highway through a coastal area really doesn't seem too appealing to me and goes against Schwarzenegger's strong record with regards to environmental issues. I hope they remain friends.

Inconvenient Al Makes Obama, Rest of Dems, Wait

My take on this is that four years ago his endorsement of Howard Dean went over like a fart in church as Dean's campaign almost simultaneously destructed and kind of made Gore look silly. And also by keeping people waiting, he arguably does nothing but increase his influence. Finally his relationship with the Clintons' is complicated to say the least, he might just be being classy by not piling up on Hillary. Let's be clear: under no scenario will Gore endorse Hillary, it's a question of if and when he eventually endorses Obama.

John McCain Looks Awful

Look at the Frankenstein type scar on the left side of his face. The guy looks like he's aged 30 years since the last time he ran for president 8 years ago. This should not be discounted: in this age of American Idol looks very well might be a major determining factor for many voters. And McCain looks terrible.

Cecilia Sarkozy Gets Married in New York

Wow, neither she nor her ex-hubby French president Nicolas Sarkozy wasted any time at all re-upping after splitting up earlier this year.

The man no doubt had good intentions, looking to cheer up his ill friend. However, unfortunately, one must question the man's intelligence: not only did he think it would be ok to take a horse in an elevator in a hospital, he also managed to take the wrong horse.

Report: US to Urge British to Send 'Surge' Troops to Iraq

Well if this is true, it will no doubt go over like a fart in church with both the British public and the Gordon Brown administration. Bush, Cheney--and more frightinengly John McCain, continue to inhabit their own special little fantasy world with regards to Iraq, completely oblivious to how unpopular the war has become both domestically and abroad. How can men in such powerful positions be so utterly clueless, so completely ignorant, so catastrophically and destructively stubborn and stupid?

Bill Richardson, Political Pragmatist

Bill Richardson ostensibly owes much of his political career to the Clintons'. Indeed, it was Bill Clinton who nominated him to the two very powerful and high profile jobs in his administration of US Energy Secretary, and Ambassador to the United Nations. One might be tempted to be shocked or at least very surprised, then, by the recent news that he's decided to shun Hillary Clinton and instead endorse Barack Obama for the nomination. Alas, Bill Richardson is no political dummy. He waited until he knew it was virtually impossible for Hillary to win the nomination, which it now is, and then threw his lot behind the winning horse to curry good favor with a potential Obama administration. Vice President Richardson? Secretary of State Richardson? Defense Secretary Richardson? All possibilities for this incredibly ambitious, talented, and deft Hispanic politician. The Clintons? They're officially old news, you see politics is the quintessential zero-sum game. One winner, one loser. Well played Governor Richardson. As usual.

Hillary and Monica

The release yesterday of Hillary Clinton's calendars when she was First Lady have provided some interesting details of some of the most controversial parts of the Clinton presidency, notably just how close Hillary was to the actual sexual action that was going on with her husband the president and Monica Lewinsky, as described in this article. Indeed, it seems that Bill was getting blow jobs and sticking cigars up Monica Lewinsky's vagina while his wife was on the White House premises.

New York Times: Hillary Faces Uphill Battle

Well, that's putting it mildly. I'm continually stunned at just how unwilling the major media outlets are to state the obvious: barring an act of God, Obama is the de-facto Democratic nominee. This is not, I repeat, not a new development. The race has been mathematically, and therefore factually, all but over for over a month now! I realize it's in the media's best interests to make it seem like that's not the case, but at some point they too need to give up the "Hillary might still win" ghost....

Harlem Pastor Unleashed! Goes off on Obama, Calling Mother "Trashy White Woman"

Thanks to Reverend Wright, Republicans Smell Blood

The impact of these videos of Obama's long time pastor Reverend Jeremiah Wright spewing vitriolic anti-American remarks can not be underestimated, as this Politico article reports. Put simply, they could very well mark the moment when the Democrats lost the 2008 election. Every white person, indeed every person, is racist to some extent. There are plenty more whites in this country than any other ethnic denomination. Therefore by definition there are more white racists who up until this point were willing to give Obama another look due to his avowed moderate, 'safe' stance with regards to the question of race. This has now been shattered, and the race wound is wide open and bleeding. Don't count on the sophisticated, second-to-none Republican attack machine to provide a band-aid during the general election.

Obama Picks Up 9 New Delegates From Edwards Supporters in Iowa

This is great news for the Obama campaign, especially coming after a tough news cycle dealing with the comments his freaky Chicago pastor has made in the past. It's tough to see any legitimate path to the nomination at this point for Hillary. Even if she wins in landslides in every single one of the remaining contests, and the Michigan and Florida delegations are seated in her favor, she still won't catch up to Obama in delegates. The remaining unpledged super delegates WILL NOT go against the popular vote, delegate vote, etc. to cast their lot with Hillary--why would they? Many of them are elected officials themselves and realize that Obama is much less divisive than Hillary in a general election, and they themselves stand to gain more votes with him at the top of the ticket. Barring some Youtube video appearing showing Obama blowing lines of coke up his nose, or shooting up heroin, or having sex with a boy, or something completely nuts like that happening, this nomination is his. Block out all the noise, the Democratic nomination is over.

McCain: Al-Qaeda in Iraq Might Cost Me Election

Actually, what might cost you the election John is that the last thing in the world a vast majority of Americans want is a third Bush term--especially with regards to foreign policy. McCain has been completely out of touch and in his own world on Iraq for years now, it was about a year ago that he bizarrely claimed to CNN's Wolf Blitzer that it would be safe for someone to 'go for a stroll' in downtown Baghdad.

But alas you were too busy blowing lines of coke up your nose and chugging booze back then....Gee whiz, too bad, now you can only wish and send others off to get their legs blasted off.

Bush Sings Goodbye at The Gridiron Dinner

Some Questions About The Spitzer Affair

Elliot Spitzer was caught with his pants down, almost literally. He was busted having sex with a high paid prostitute and was caught. However, how he was caught is becoming more and more a topic of discussion. Apparently it was wire transfers of some pretty insignificant amounts, like $5k at a time, that caused his bank to alert the feds. This blog post examines a few of the questions that arise from this scenario. It is no secret that Elliot Spitzer has become the mortal enemy of many, many powerful people over the last decade or so, many of them Wall Street multi-millionaires whose name was dragged through the mud by his high profile investigations over the years. Remember that part in the movie the Godfather II, where the Senator awakens after being drugged after being at a whore house all night? It seems like a very similar thing has befallen Elliot Spitzer in real life.

Sullivan: The Clintons, A Horror Film That Never Ends

I couldn't have titled this piece any better, and it's so true. This country needs fresh blood in the Oval Office in the worst way. There's been either a Clinton or a Bush as president or vice president for 28 years now and if Hillary's elected for two terms that would make it an astonishing 36 years. Good thing there's nearly a 0% chance of that happening and this nonsense of a Obama/Hillary ticket is merely the sounds of a desperate, dying Clinton, Inc. grasping at straws...

Hillary, It's Over

Democrats Seek Filibuster Proof Senate Majority in 2008

With all the current (most of it unwarranted--Barack Obama will be the Democratic nominee) hubbub over the current high profile Democratic presidential nominating contest, the fact that the Democrats have a real shot at creating a filibuster proof majority in the Senate in 2008 has flown largely under the radar screen. It really shouldn't, as its consequences would be potentially enormous. On everything from Iraq, to taxes, to judges, to the environment, a filibuster proof majority could enable the Democrats in Congress to implement their policies. As the article mentions, Obama is the presidential candidate seen as having longer 'coattails', in other words having him as the candidate as opposed to the divisive Hillary would increase the probability of Democrats taking over the Senate. This fact, perhaps more than any, leads objective observers to the conclusion that the currently uncommitted Democratic super delegates--many of them elected officials themselves up for election in 2008-- will eventually throw their support to him. After all the primary goal for every politician, when it comes down to it, is survival.

Iphone Poised to Take On Blackberry for Business Phone Market

As reported in today's Wall Street Journal, Steve Jobs and Apple are looking to cut into Blackberry's huge advantage in business enterprise business by doing things like making the Iphone more secure and in general more business friendly. It should be interesting to see how this plays out. As an owner of a Blackberry, I can tell you that it's great for e-mail, but its Internet capabilities pretty much suck badly. Ever try watching a YouTube video on your blackberry, for example? The Iphone on the other hand kicks ass Internet wise, and videos and stuff are incredibly easy and smooth to view.

Will Gore Be The King Maker?

As the Democratic nominating battle continues to drag on, many in the party are looking for party elders with the necessary stature and 'gravitas' to step in and try to end the contest for the good of the party. The problem is, one of the only party members with the necessary stature is Bill Clinton who for obvious reasons is not credible with regards to the above argument. The only other person on the planet who could step in and try to settle things is Al Gore. Consensus thinking is that Gore would side with Obama. He clashed frequently with Hillary during the Clinton presidency and it is common knowledge that there is no love lost between the two. Additionally, he and his supporters fault Hillary for sucking vital oxygen and cash from his presidential campaign in 2000 by launching her run for the New York Senate at the same time. It would be sweet irony and indeed a form of poetic justice if Al Gore swoops in to save the Democrats, and in many eyes the country as a whole, from the next proposed installment of Clinton, Inc.

Cutting Through The Bullshit on Super Tuesday II

The most likely scenario tonight is Hillary barely winning in both Ohio and Texas, but perhaps losing ground in the delegate race overall, as this article reports. It remains highly unlikely that Hillary will be able to catch Obama in elected delegates, period, from now until the last election in Puerto Rico on June 7. She and her team can spin, spin, spin all they want but there are mathematical facts involved here and she would have to begin routing Obama by 10-20% margins in the future contests to catch up to him, something that has not happened yet. She will either go down fighting, including trying to seat delegates from Michigan and Florida and thereby tearing apart the Democratic party, or with some dignity. Knowing Clinton, Inc., she will undoubtedly choose the former.

Microsoft Expands Online Services in Effort to Combat Google

Its clear that Microsoft is and has been a company on the defensive for a few years now. Google and the Internet have been slowly eating its lunch. This was dramatically illustrated last month when the company made a move to swallow up Yahoo in an effort to close the gap with Google regarding online advertising. Now, as this article reports, it is in the process of trying to improve and advance its online offerings with regards to its Office suite of products. It is, as they say, a day late and a dollar short and one must ask how much the company is being distracted from its core competencies as it chases its tail continually with regards to Google.

Hillary 2008: The Post-Mortems Begin

Types of articles like this one from the Los Angeles Times will begin to roll in by this Wednesday unless Hillary shocks the world on Tuesday and defeats Obama by big margins in Ohio and Texas--a result that looks increasingly unlikely with every passing hour. In a nutshell, the Clinton campaign ran early on the feeling of 'inevitability', ie she was going to be the nominee no matter what. This led to a certain arrogance with her campaign and when Obama surprised everyone by winning Iowa in a near landslide (Hillary finished third, behind Edwards), it exposed the Hillary operation as being thoroughly unprepared for a long battle. She has been thumped repeatedly by Obama since then, and her message of 'experience' hasn't gained traction in what everyone agrees is shaping up to be a quintessential 'change' election.

Obama: Hillary Should Have Read More in 2002

In what appears to be a last gasp effort to stay in the race, the Clinton campaign has been hammering Obama as inexperienced and unfit to lead the United States. Obama has struck back by reminding voters that Hillary Clinton never read the national intelligence report on Iraq before casting the most important vote of her Senate career in voting to grant Bush authorization to invade the country.
