Balancing the Scales of Editorialism Away from the Right

Archive for the ‘Uncategorized’ Category

Halloween is America’s most patriotic holiday because it is a celebration of life and the founding spirit of ambition. For one night a year, every American has an equal opportunity to pretend that they are whatever they aspire to be,  free of society’s judgment.
Unlike Christmas, Valentine’s Day, and Easter, Halloween doesn’t endorse a specific religion’s [...]

John McCain: the Attention Whore

Posted by: James In: Uncategorized

Sow, this piece of news just hit the wire: according to an article in Time Magazine, Barack Obama called the McCain camp at 8:30 am to propose that they “issue a joint statement in support of a package to help fix the economy as soon as possible”.
The McCain camp used the six hours between the [...]

Posted by: James In: Uncategorized

Trauma Bonding is the sociological effect where, in traumatic times, victims of that trauma will cling to the most convenient source of authority as a means of protection, regardless of that entity’s connection to the source of that trauma. This is the root cause of Stockholm Syndrome.
9/11 is perhaps the most evident example of this. [...]

Recent news has come out that yet another self-professed Hillary Clinton “supporter” has jumped aboard theMcCain Puss- err, Bandwagon. This time, the naive wench is Lynn Forester de Rothschild, a prominent member of the DNC’s Platform Committee who, in her moments of clarity, helped Hillary Clinton raise over $100,000 in campaign contributions.
Earlier, Mrs. Rotshchild complained [...]

As I mentioned in part 1 of this blog, John McCain and Sarah Palin have no family values. I’ve exposed John McCain, not it’s Sara Palin’s turn.
Sara Palin is widely accused of having an affair with Scott Richter, one her husband’s business partners. The revelation of this now-suppressed scandal was, by some strange coincidence, immediately [...]

Anybody who has tried to play the “family values” drinking game during televised McCain/Palin rallies has probably found themselves in a disappointing state of sobriety.
Why are they silent on this usually exciting buzz phrase? Because to repeat it would expose them to the media’s embarrassing spotlight and the hypocrisy it would reveal.
Let’s expose John McCain [...]

According to an article in the Huffington Post, Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has said that this is the Worst Economy he had ever seen.
How incredibly convenient of him to say that. While Bush and his disastrous policies may have had a strong hand in pile-driving this economy into the ground, it’s awfully convenient [...]
