Things aren’t going so well for Bush, which isn’t new news since about 2003, but yesterday was a particularly bad day for him:
Ding, dong, the immigration bill is finally dead - after being put on Terry Schiavo-style life support in the past couple of weeks. The Senate voted 53-46 (oddly put at “46 to 53″ […]
I wish that were the headline on CNN today. I don’t know if any of you watched Larry King’s interview with Paris Hilton last night, or Anderson Cooper’s “360″ coverage of the interview itself. Yes, that means a two-hour block of time on the Cable News Network was dedicated exclusively to Paris Hilton.
(But I’m writing […]
Yesterday and Monday, we learned that pro wrestler Chris Benoit (Ben-waaah), former WWE champ and owner of the crippler crossface, went absolutely daffy and killed his wife and son, laid a bible near their bodies, and then hung himself using gym equipment in the basement. Just one more installment of 49.99 to pay off that […]
Back in January, I took a tally of the Presidential race by having a 5-deep “Power Ranking” of the current candidates. It’s been about six months, so I think it’s a good time to check back in and see some new names and new positions.
Remember, this isn’t who I support. I’m basing these rankings off […]
I don’t know how many of you have heard of “The Secret,” the latest self-help craze that’s sweeping the nation. Many of the self-help gurus who appeared in the DVD have gone on Oprah and probably seen huge spikes in business.
If you haven’t seen it, essentially “The Secret” talks about the Law of Attraction and […]
Greetings loyal BPN fans, it’s been a while since I posted a main page story. Hope everything is going well for you, and as always, thanks for visiting and helping us to make this a great site.
Okay, so let’s get down to some good ol’ fashion debate here.
Yesterday’s Milwaukee Journal Sentinel featured an interesting […]
In another edition of “why mainstream news is horrible,” we have this. An article from MSNBC talking about the bias of journalists and how freely they spend toward supporting particular political candidates. This is particularly for BPN Forum member Flarking Smoo, who claims there’s no liberal bias in the media.
MSNBC.com identified 144 journalists […]
A very interesting article out of Canada.com (The National Post), which talks about our current science’s inability to understand climate change and the effect humans have on it.
We are assured by everyone from David Suzuki to Al Gore to Prime Minister Stephen Harper that “the science is settled.”…The fact that science is many years away […]
Fred Thompson appears to be leading the polls for Republicans right now, despite not formally being in the race. He edged Giuliani by one percent in one poll. Again: a guy who isn’t running for president yet. It’s obvious that he will, but I wonder about the timing of this. Do you come out and […]
The Vatican interestingly decided to release 10 Commandments for good, uh, motorism with a document called “Guidelines for the Pastoral Care of the Road.” It’s an interesting acknowledgment of the process people go through when entering traffic - turning into hairy cavemen.
“Cars tend to bring out the ‘primitive’ side of human beings, thereby producing rather […]
