Hollywood’s Retribution

Filed under Culture

At least in one instance political diversity isn’t encouraged in Hollywood:
Actor Ron Silver says he has had fewer movie offers and dinner invitations since he parted political company with his Hollywood colleagues and spoke at the Republican National Convention last year.
But he is sinking his teeth into his new role: conservative activist. Silver released a […]

What is Rummy Thinking?

Filed under Terrorism

The Pentagon has confirmed Able Danger members did indeed discover Mohammad Atta was a terrorist, but Rumsfeld refuses to let them testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee. What’s Rumsfeld hiding? At a time like this sucking it up and accepting embarassment is doing what’s best for the country. No more games. We need to know.
“Able […]

A Bug Got Me

Yesterday morning I woke up with a sore throat. I only worked half a day. Sleeping 13+ hours and Advil helped my throat but I have a splitting headache and am very, very tired. Thus TAM is quiet today. Here’s hoping some oatmeal and lots more sleep will make things better.

Music Social Site

Filed under Tech

For a few weeks I’ve been playing with Audioscrobbler and Last.fm. The latter is a music social website that tracks what songs you’ve listen to and connects you to people with similar music tastes as well as discussion groups. The personal charts is a nice feature simply because it’s taking your most-played list out of […]

Reid’s “Petty Partisanship”

Filed under Law

The LA Times urged Senators to confirm Judge John Roberts and launched a pre-emptive strike on Democrats who will oppose him:
It will be a damning indictment of petty partisanship in Washington if an overwhelming majority of the Senate does not vote to confirm John G. Roberts Jr. to be the next chief justice of the […]

Cindy Said What?

Last week in Columbia, SC before a rollicking crowd of 50 said,
My son should be here right now. When he got back from Iraq he was supposed to come back to Fort Jackson to do some more training. He was changing his specialty, so it’s really hard for me to be here. My son was […]

Rally in D.C.

Filed under Cindy Sheehan
Comments Off

People who support U.S. troops and honor the mission they’re bravely conducting have an opportunity to counter communist-inspired Cindyfest next weekend. Redstate.org has the details. What’s really great is if you can get a group to go to Washington, D.C. transportation can be arranged. So stand your ground and oppose the America-hating Left.

Bankrolling Cindy

Redstate.org has a new area set up to document the wackiness of anti-American Cindy Sheehan. Nick Danger has a good post puncturing the idea that Sheehan is some grassroots phenomenon. She’s a useful idiot in the hands of well-funded Leftists.

Sheehan’s Red and Black Friend

Filed under Cindy Sheehan
Comments Off

Cindy Sheehan could easily silence critics about her communist connections if she would stop associating with them or call them her friends. Power Line reports on Sheehan’s praise of Malik Rahim, admitted communist and Black Panther. Here’s a man with no love for a nation that protect his right to speak anti-Americanism.
“The Friends of Cindy […]

Nintendo’s Lost Me

Filed under Tech

For the Revolution Nintendo is coming out with a controller with a split personality. It looks stupid. I don’t like it. I’m not coordinated enough to use both my thumb on the analog stick and my fingers on the buttons simultaneously. If I wanted some split controller I’d stick with PC gaming.
“The Nintendo Revolution […]

Cindy Sheehan: Useful Idiot

Cindy Sheehan was an August story. In a slow news time her protest outside President Bush’s Crawford ranch garnered significant media attention. When you combine little news in late summer and a MSM inclined to attack Bush any chance they get you get the “Mother” Sheehan freak show.
I’ve been ignoring Sheehan. I figured she […]

No Big Loss

Starting Monday you’ll have to pay to read NY Times‘ columnists.
*Crickets chirping*
Yeah, there will be a big hole in my daily reading. I can feel the middlebrow intellectual hole already forming. What will I do without Paul Krugman’s and Frank Rich’s screeds on my computer screen? How will I cope with not having Thomas Friedman’s […]
