- THE
COLBERT REPORT – Now that Daily Show alum Steven Colbert
has spun off his own show on Comedy Central, the 11-midnight hour just
got twice as good. Colbert and
Daily Show host Jon Stewart seem to have a friendly competition going
on... which bodes well for more laughs ahead.
- KANYE
WEST – I thought it
was really cool that this guy had the cajones to go on national
TV and say something that really needed to be said. It made me go to his website and listen to some tracks.
I thought they were pretty good!
This guy actually writes about something other than “gangstas”
and “beyotches” and elevates the art form a little bit.
Cool.
- ROCKSLIDE
– I totally dig
the new lineup and the tapes of the first gig I’m listening to tell me
there’s a huge upside once we get a few gigs under our belt. The guitar playing is stellar!
- DEMS
FINALLY GROW SOME CAJONES!!! – At last, the Democrats in Washington
can feel the wind shifting. Day
by day, the Bush Administration is more exposed as its lies are
discredited and its dirty deeds uncovered. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid got the base fired up
and dealt the dastardly a blow by shutting down the Senate for a day and
forcing a discussion of pre-war intelligence back onto the agenda. A completely outmaneuvered Bill Frist
could only whine “This is a slap in the face!” Yeah, you guys really need one too!
- SCOOTER
INDICTED! – The first of many more of the NeoNaziCons, we
can only hope. Please oh please
get Cheney and Rove too, willya?
- LAME
DUCK BUSH – Although I would much rather see him
impeached and ousted, I will settle for him having to serve out
the last three years of his term in disgrace; disempowered to do
any more harm to America or anybody else. I bet when he read about
Brownie's "Can I quit now?" email he totally knew how
the guy felt!
- THE
DIGITAL REALM – We have already entered the era in which
technology will enslave us. Soon
there will be worldwide governance of the World Wide Web and the End
Times will be upon us. In the
meantime, Technology is still empowering the individual and that’s a
good thing.
- THE
BLOGOSPHRE - The valiant people who carve out their own little
corner of the Internet and make their voices heard! While the mainstream media cowered and
kowtowed to the Bushies, a whole new generation of industrious reporters
and pundits kept Freedom of the Press alive in this country. In the dark days during which the NeoNaziCons
thought they had the Media bought and paid for, a few lonely voices
kept the flame. Happily,
the GOP still doesn’t “get” the Web; it remains a largely Blue domain.
It’s going to give us a big edge in 2006 and 2008.
Thanks for keeping hope alive, guys.

- NO
FASCIST USA!!!
– What happened to the America
we all thought we knew? Where’s
the America
that stood for something, or at least gave lip service to standing for something? When did “We the People” ask our government
to carry out imperialism, kidnapping, executions, plunder, pillage,
election fraud, money laundering and torture IN OUR NAME? I didn’t ask them to do any of that, did you?
- 50
CENT – For the life of me, I don’t know why this guy is
so unbelievably huge. He can’t
sing for s**t, recited rhymes to pre-recorded canned music. His music has no Soul, no Funk. And yet he’s a multimedia superstar! I totally don’t get it.
- ROD
STEWART - "Et tu, Rod the Mod?" To see
a performer who was once a Rock and Roll giant like Stewart sing wussy
lounge music like a bad wedding singer who doesn't know he s**ks is most
disheartening. It reminds me why John Lennon wanted to have "the F.U.
money" - so he wouldn't be reduced to Rod's sad state. I am
thoroughly dismayed to see the man who made "Every Picture Tells a
Story" come out with this drivel. And to have it do so well on the
charts! I'm still scratching my head.
- ROVE
REMAINS – If they oust no other Bushie miscreant with the
Plamegate investigations, I will be very happy if they only get Karl
Rove. His arrogance dearly needs
to be humbled! Plus if Dumbya
doesn’t have ol’ “Turd Blossom” to tell him what to do, he’ll be screwed
(see “Harriet Meiers”).
- CHENEY!!!
- OMG just typing the name makes
my skin crawl. Whether you’re a
Democrat or a Republican, how can you not see Our Dear Vice President as
Evil Incarnate? Ugh, Cheney and
that sneer of his. Elvis he’s not - he is truly the Darth Vader of
America! What kind of man
actively campaigns for the right to torture detainees, when our nation
was a signatory of the Geneva Conventions and has historically been
opposed to it? What colossal arrogance
the man must have.
Unbelievable!!! Despite your best efforts, THIS IS STILL AMERICA
SUCKA!!!
- LAW
COMES TO THE INTERNET? – We have already entered the era
in which technology will enslave us.
Soon there will be worldwide governance of the World Wide Web.
Arraugh! Big Brother and World
Government take another step forward!
- HOWARD
STERN – Whether you
love him or hate him, Howard Stern has changed the American cultural
landscape. Not for the better, I’m
afraid. He has lowered the bar
of American culture in a lot of ways.
He used to rule but he made two key mistakes – losing Jackie “the
Joke Man” Martling who wrote all his best bits and losing he ex-wife
Alison, who kept him grounded. I
for one will not be following him to XM.
