About President Obama's Dramatic Statement
The impetus toward gay marriage – supported dramatically by President Obama Wednesday – is both conservative and Christian. It also could be a brilliant re-election strategy that hoists conservatives with their own petards by using a "culture war" wedge issue against them. Let's not be sarcastic or flippant here. Married ...
One of my first Ted Nugent experiences came at Detroit’s Eastown Theater more than 40 years ago when his concert encore assaulted the hearing of his rock audience. Instead of playing his guitar, Nugent placed it on a chair near the amplifiers and turned everything up so that feedback shrieked ...
Top Ten Possible GOP Vice Presidential Candidates
With Rick Santorum out of the race for President, Mitt Romney looks like the only viable Republican surviving. But even a billionaire can’t simply buy a vice-presidential running mate as if the veep candidate was just another Cadillac for the missus. He has to select one based on appeal to ...
Even by the sleazy standards of Fox News Channel, Sean Hannity is a notable bigot and demagogue. He proved it again Monday evening with an astounding 20-minute display of Negrophobia that could be used to recruit for the Ku Klux Klan. After opening his show with a free airing of ...
What Is Heartless and Who Has a Heart?
The hard-hearted mindset of the right wing comes through both in deeds done and words spoken. The latter was obvious again Monday night on Fox News Channel as it tried to tilt the first day of Supreme Court health-care arguments in favor of right-wing paranoids and insurance-company profiteers. Britt Hume, ...
Bring the Supreme Court Out Into the Light
Beginning on Monday, when the Supreme Court hears three days of oral arguments about the health-care law, the sessions will enjoy less public exposure than an NCAA tournament basketball game or a car chase on a Los Angeles freeway. And this is wrong. The hearings should be televised live and ...
Santorum's Puerto Rico Dog Whistle Not Lost in Translation
Rick Santorum's high-handed doubletalk about English and Spanish in Puerto Rico may seem like another mistake by the Republican presidential candidate with the hardest heart and the meanest mouth. For sure, Santorum is crude and rude. He's a darling of right-wing hate radio and Fox News Channel because he's the ...
Lots of Blood on Lots of Hands
Guns don’t kill people. Bullets kill people. And bullets come from guns fired by people to kill other people. And we saw this again Monday at a high school in Ohio when one student was killed and four others wounded (two critically) by a young man who fired away in ...
The Rick Santorum presidential campaign is so focused on nasty wedge issues of sex and religion that the candidate and his campaign workers can’t avoid Freudian slips when talking about other things. The latest example came on Monday afternoon when Alice Stewart, Santorum’s press secretary, was speaking to Andrea Mitchell ...
The GOP's Little Father Coughlins
Last week, after his sweep of three minor Republican nominating contests, right-wing radical Rick Santorum spoke the next day in a church. Behind him, were an altar and stained-glass windows. He looked live Reverend Lovejoy on the Simpsons. On Friday, after President Obama offered a face-saving "tweak" on birth-control coverage ...
Why the Right May Be Right to Be Offended by Chrysler's Clint Eastwood Super Bowl Ad
This year’s commercial | Last year's commerical For two straight years, Chrysler has won the Super Bowl advertising competition, both times with a two-minute commercial. This year’s effort combined impressively artistic visual elements with a serious socio-political message rarely available on commercial television. Last year, it was a Detroit-focused mini-movie ...
