    these jackels are so yesterday. If they can't find something fearful and sensational to report on, they will make it up.

    No one gets their "news" from MSNBC anymore. I mean, how many times can we watch Lock Up:San Quinton and be considered normal?

  • Are those the ones...

    1. Hollywood with their perfect, airbrushed photos, and staged film sets that make simply everyone, Darling, look so good.

    2. Men for deciding that women with average weight just "are not good enough."

    3. The anorexic models that sulk down the catwalks wearing clothes like a hanger?

    4. The fast-food industry and pre-cooked, convenience food industry that choose to ignore the fact that their salt-filled, high caloric, fat foods are killing us all?

    5. Americans who eat in their cars - on their porches - in front the TV - in an airplane (okay, scratch that, they don't serve food in airplanes anymore!).

    6. Department stores that still want to believe that we are all a size 8 or below and only fill their racks with those size clothes.

    7. Computers, play stations, and other games that keep us sitting for hours.

    8. Websites, like Salon, that encourage you to spend hours in front it it typing away like this.

    9. Schools that cut recess and physical education.

    10. Parents who "give in" to little Johnnie's, Jamal's, Susie's, and Tamika's need for some new marketing gimmick connected with a movie but comes with fries.

  • WHO CARES?

    Obama won't be saying anything except how he'll hire Republicans to work in his White House, something that absolutely delights every Democrat he meets on the campaign trail. And Chris Wallace is just some guy holding up a smirk.

  • DICK, DICK, DICK...

    Those so-called intelligence "streams" are you pissing in the wind again.
