I don't like Geraldo either

For the record, whenever Geraldo Rivera appears on the TV screen the channel is immediately changed (if it's live TV) or I skip forward until his visage no longer contaminates my screen (if it's TiVo'd). Having said that, the New York Times' libel of Geraldo, and its unwillingness to correct the record, is just one […]

There's a third possibility

Last week Apple CEO suggested that if record labels started charging more than $0.99 per song on his service and others, it would be indicative of pure greed. Not one to want to prove Jobs wrong, Warner Music Group CEO Edgar Bronfman Jr. fired back. �To have only one price point is not fair to […]

Hero

Yesterday Cpl. Tibor Rubin was finally awarded the Medal of Honor for his service during the Korean War. The Mudville Gazette has all the details. On a day when hate-America-firsters are spewing their venom and bile, it's good to see what real heroes look like.

I wouldn't have volunteered to work Monday...

If I'd have known that I might be able to get in to see "Serenity" Monday evening -- four days before it's released -- because I have so much influence and will cause all of you readers to go and see the film. I've been anxiously waiting for "Serenity" to make it into theaters ever […]

Race in America

It appears as though the gray areas in talking about race have gotten so expansive that there isn't much you can say without getting branded a racist. The Union-Tribune's Ruben Navarrette wrote a column earlier this week taking John Roberts to task for using the term "amigos" in an internal White House memo during the […]

"You are stuck on stupid"

That's what Lt. Gen. Russel Honore told a reporter at a news conference the other day. When you're in elementary school, and even through high school, teachers encourage students to ask questions by telling them, falsely, that "there's no such thing as a stupid question." While they are rarely called on it, journalists know there […]

Judge or legislator?

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is the type of judge that Democrats like. She's a former counsel for the ACLU and further left wing than the president who nominated her to the high court. So, it comes as little surprise that Ginsburg confessedly isn't interested in judging cases, but would rather make the law. […]

Dumb

Sen. Arlen Specter (Faux R-Penn.) has suggested that President Bush delay replacing Sandra Day O'Connor on the Supreme Court until Democrats have a chance to grandstand closer to the 2006 midterm elections. Specter said the delay would give Congress and the rest of America more time to know John Roberts as chief justice. ``When we […]

Everything has changed

When President Bill Clinton nominated Ruth Bader Ginsburg to replace Justice Byron White, she was confirmed 96-3. There were no concerns voiced by either Democrats or Republicans that Clinton was replacing a conservative with a liberal. There were no cries that the court should maintain its "balance." There weren't even any serious opposition to Ginsburg […]
