Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..
... ABORTION. Lithwick's very idea that women do not have reproductive choice, if they cannot extinquish the life growing in their own wombs, is in and of itself faulty. I mean, my God, did the female have sex with the guy, or did she not? As to being ''for change'' in everything but pro-Abort American policies at home and abroad, not everyone ...

Re: FOX Lies!! Barack Obama Pastor Wright
I have to say, this isn't just FOX news. The green day song ''American Idiot..one nation controlled by the media'' comes to mind. I'm getting really sick and tired of ISMS ruling our country and our lives instead of ideas and thoughts and common sense. Fanatacism, politicism, racism, conservatism, liberalism, ageism(sp?),fundamentalism, ...

Race and Gender in the Coverage of Presidential Politics
I perused the site for provocative comments from women on how race and gender are driving the election but found few. So chew on this candid perspective in response to the media's slicing and dicing of votes by race and gender to death. Just as it is preposterous to perpetuate the opinion that most Hispanic males wear casual Polo Ralph Lauren ...

HRC on SNL
Okay, I GET IT: those guys really want Hillary to win the Democratic nomination. That's cool, but did having her on with Rudy G really help her case? And she and Amy Poehler (sp?) fawning over each other like middle schoolers (''I like your jacket,'' ''Well, I like yours!'', ''Do I really laugh like that?''), while touching, was hardly ...

Oh spare me....
I'm a pretty ticked off white person. First, I'm pretty convinced that the media gains something by not letting go of racism. What will you talk about if it’s actually gone? I've studied sociology and was once told that the only true racism in our society is institutional racism. Well - it's the only racism that really costs any race a pretty ...

Re: Hillary did not demand firing
Let's ask ourselves the all important question, does the media have the right to vilify someone's character? Is the media like the faceless chorus in some Edwardian drama? As Hillary put it so simply, she is a mother, first and foremost. Does that cut through the political pundit's cloud of non-accountability? Hardly. In fact, it would take an act ...

He has promised to unite not only the US Congress and the US Senate, but all Americans, black and white, liberals and conservatives, ...

Dem Popular Vote: Wow . . . it's real close!
7,374,222 7,374,222 So, I was complaining about the lack of data on total vote counts from yesterday's primaries. Using CNN's up to date numbers, I did it myself. Note that not all precincts are in, but generally states have reported 90+ percent (most in the high 90s). So, as of now, where we are in Feb. 5 caucus goer and voter ...

You Missed One Thing...
I understand what you're saying, but you're looking at things in the wrong order. The whole of media seems to suggest that they cover what people want without ever taking into account how much power the media themselves have over establishing what exactly people like. By covering it as a horse race and talking about who's ahead, you're going far ...

Why I'm an American in Exile...
On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004. Why did the CIA feel threatened by this? Because I revealed how they smuggled cocaine into the US using a front company called ''Skyway Communications''. ...
