In Sacramento, each workday, a small group of protestors gather at the office of representative Doris Matsui. But this isn't the kind of protest we got used to in the 60's atteh height of the Vietnam War. During Vietnam, protests sometimes became violent, like in Chicago or at Columbia University. Sometimes the military was brought in to squelch the dissent, like at Kent State. Almost certainly, the protestors were "tree huggin hippies" in their teens and 20's seemingly in a competition ...
This week, San Francisco mayor, Gavin Newsom admitted to an affair with the wife of a trusted aide and friend. This revalation was disgusting enough. But Newsom decisded to take things to the level that many take them these days. Gavin, now joins the ranks of Mark Foley, Mel Gibson, Linsay Lohan, Congressman Kennedy, Miss USA, the leader of the evangelicals and a whole host of others who have shamefully shirked any personal responsibility for their actions by blaming the old red herring, ...
In the last election, former Senator George Allen got caught up in a verbal "gaffe" when he refferred to a young man hired to follow him around for his opponents campaign effort as "Macacca." the "controversy" raged on for weeks, mostly fueled by Allen's unwillingness to come clean about where he picked up the slur and the result would be essentially throwing his mother under the bus. He, like most sons, refused to do that. It. Along with a vote that at least appeared to deny troops the body...

I'm not the biggest "reality tv fan in the world. Nor am I the smallest. Like most, there are shows I follow, and shows I don't.

I like the "where are they now" factor that the Surreal Life covered. I really liked a less popular Fox mystery series called Murder In Smalltown X a few years back probably cause I just dig trying to solve a goo...
Last spring, the nation supposedly was enlightened to a tragic course of events. A woman had been raped by 3 priveledged students at one of the south's premiere universities. And this time, justice would prevail. the students were quickly identified, indicted and imprisoned. Evidence, including DNA evidence was gathered that would prove these out of control rich-kids were guilty of raping this poor woman. The students were thrown off the team, thrown off campus. The rest of the team, who was ...
Consumer reports has issued a retraction in regards to the trashing of 9 out of the 12 car seats they tested last fall and featured in a recent issue. It is the 1st time the magazine has issued such a retraction in almost a decade. The last time was over dog food in 1998. Consumer reports has admitted that their methodology was flawed. They have conceded that the "38 mph test" they claimed was done was bogus. The test was done @ 70mph. And that they actually "outsourced" the whole study.

Well then, see him speak....
Are you looking to start your own terrorist organization but just don't know where to get all those parts to build your bombs? Well, thankfully, in this land of opportunity, the Pentagon has got you covered! And furthermore, for pennies on the dollar! It's kind of like Ebay for terrorists, maybe they'll call it "EBomb." Really, the US Defense department has been selling literally hundreds of lots just filled with missile parts, bomb making parts and all kinds of useful tools for the...
