Why I’m Voting

By donar | Related entries in 2010 Election, Barack, Cartoons, Democrats, Obama, Republicans, Video

NY TIMES LINK I like to consider myself a moderate and prefer voting for the best candidates regardless of their party origins. But I can’t see too many Republicans that are willing to push aside this simplistic view and try to make this government work. But when you are dealing with ignorant voters, you have [...]

Exploded Oil Rig Paid Over $700K In Fines In 2010 Alone

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Disasters, Energy, Oil, Video

The Vermilion 380 blew up today, but it looks like we may have dodged an oily bullet. Still, could it have been prevented? Well, as the title suggest, it’s very likely. Because fines are usually in the thousands to tens of thousands. So, to be fined the better part of a million dollars is patently [...]

The Arizona Governor is taking some heat for her strange performance in last night’s debate against the state’s Attorney General Terry Goddard. First, there’s this painful opening… Errrr….

2010: The Year Of The Anti-Incumbents? Not Really.

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2010 Election, Democrats, Republicans, Video

So, I’ve definitely been guilt of pushing the anti-incumbent meme, but it’s appearing as if the exact opposite is true. By a margin of 317-7 (4 of which were Repubs, 1 of whom was Arlen Specter), incumbents have been winning primary fights left and right. And the AFP is noticing… PHOENIX, Arizona — Despite surging [...]

Sharron Angle Wants The Press To Be Her Friend

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Media, tea party, Video

This is funny for so many reasons… First, if you’re Carl Cameron you have to feel kind of embarrassed at this transparent admission that Fox News should just play ball and walk through Angle’s talking points. Second, if you’re Fox News, well, can you hear that echo? Third, if you’re a member of the Tea [...]

Investors Love Divided Government – 2010 Edition

By mw | Related entries in 2010 Election, Business, Democrats, Fiscal Responsibility, Republicans, Stocks, Video

Most investors believe that the stock market will benefit from Republicans taking control of either the House or Senate in the fall. With that expectation, a rising market could very well be a self-fulfilling prophecy. If the GOP begins to look like it has a realistic chance of taking control of one house, the opportunities may come along sooner rather than later.

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Media, Republicans, tea party, Video

Say what you will about MSNBC, but the following by Chris Matthews and the Hardball crew is a good look at how this new movement has sprung up and why it seems to continue to grow. Of note, watch Part Six about how the “death panel” meme started with Sarah Palin and kept on rolling [...]

Rand Paul’s Sad, Slow Implosion

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Elections, Energy, Libertarian, Oil, Regulations, Republicans, Senate, Video

First it was the wishy-washiness of the civil rights act repeal and now it’s criticism of the administration being tough on BP? Watch the video… Here’s the thing…yes, accidents happen on offshore oil rigs. However, most damage is mitigated by appropriate safety measures being put in place to keep spills to a minimum. However, recent [...]

Could Kevin Costner’s Oil Spill Centrifuge Help The Gulf?

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Energy, Environment, Oil, Technology, Video

Ironically, the star of Waterworld (which I like…by the way) might be just the guy to help save the water in the Gulf of Mexico. Check out the nifty gadget he and his brother has been funding the development of (to the tune of $15M) for the past 15 years. Apparently, it can remove between [...]

The following video is heartbreaking, especially since it happened in my state. Still, this is happening every day in every other state over completely victimless crimes. Here’s a quick explanation if you can’t watch the video (via Radley Balko)… SWAT team breaks into home, fires seven rounds at family’s pit bull and corgi (?!) as [...]

California’s Proposition 14: Open Primaries, Open Vote

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in California, Independents, Legislation, Video, Voting

Heard about this? Well, you will. Basically, open primaries are where the top two vote getters move on to the general, with the hopeful net result being that Dems and Repubs wouldn’t have to appeal to the more extreme elements of their party to get to the big show. Here’s more… So, no more party [...]

The titular joke comes in the first couple minutes…so you don’t have to watch the whole thing, but I’d suggest you do because it’s pretty damn funny. He also makes fun of Biden’s BFD comment, Eric Massa, the Jonas Brothers, Scott Brown, Michael Steele, Charlie Crist, John McCain, the new Arizona immigration law, his Nobel [...]

Lady Gaga Invades Afghanistan

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Afghanistan, Music, Pop Culture, Video

I’ve consistently contended (in my personal social channels) that Lady Gaga is the new Madonna. And now some American soldiers in Afghanistan reinforce that Gaga’s pop culture weirdness extends beyond our borders. Watch and enjoy… And to all of those who think that they’re wasting our tax dollars…I’d rather them blowing up their imaginary phones [...]
