Israel's P.R. Machine vs. The Media



Article: Israeli Ambassador to U.S. Lambastes CNN While on CNN Over Gaza Coverage - The Huffington Post

The whole strategy for the Israeli P.R. Machine is to beat on people until they come around to the Israeli point of view. They've been sending out their minions to every media outlet to try to accomplish this. They threw such a fit over the very-short FAA ban on flights into Ben Gurion that they got it lifted.

Plus, it's interesting to watch Jewish politicians drop the interests of The United States in a heartbeat to jump and down over getting what they want for Israel. Bloomberg and Schumer are prime examples.

The Voice Drinking Game!


Site: The Voice - NBC

Even though eliminated, The Shields Brothers have developed an AWESOME Drinking Game!

It seems to change constantly! But, I would like to officially add:

1.) If a Disease-of-the-Week contestant like #Jamal shows up, drink! He is both a recovering addict AND he's HIV-positive! That's a #TheVoice Double Double!

2.) Cleavage! Yes, cleavage! If you see cleavage (most likely Christina's, Katrina's or Erin's, drink!

Harris-Perry Bringing Diversity to MSNBC


Article: Article: Melissa Harris-Perry of MSNBC gives new face to cable news - Washington Post

I always get a big kick out of how Soledad O'Brien hosts all those "Black in America" and "Latino in America" specials! I would never have guessed for a second that she was ethnic at all.

Grammy Chatter!


Article: Adele's '21' Dominates the Grammy Awards - Los Angeles Times

The 2012 Grammys was most interesting! The death of Whitney Huston definitely cast a pall over the proceedings. But, most of the show went on as planned. Here are my (snarky!) comments:
  • Chris Brown - Like his performance, or he'll beat the f&%k out of you!
  • Hey! Chris Brown won. :-P Obviously, beating the crap out of women is rewarded at the Grammys. F&%ing douchebags!
  • Hey, CBS! I guess the only place you could get Grammys host and performers was from your own shows. Right? ;-)
  • Good to see that David Grohl fixed himself up for the Grammys! Thinking GQ, obviously! ;-)
  • I think David Grohl mistakes shaking his head around and playing loudly for good Rock 'n' Roll. Sorry, incorrect! :-)
  • Ah! The Grammys moment we've been waiting for! Nicki Minaj officially made this show Jump the Shark!
  • What would have made the Grammys actually ROCK? Van Halen, of course!

Eastwood vs. The Right


Article: Detroit Automakers Are Rebounding. Karl Rove Is Offended. - New York Times

First of all, Eastwood could drive Rove into the cement with his pinkie! Second of all, I didn't think of any political messages at all when seeing this ad.

This is a good old Rorschach test, where you view the inkbolt and see what you want to see. Rove, whose entire existence is about political division and demonizing anything that can be demonized, saw what he wanted to see. The dude could see a commercial for milk and see something nefarious in it!

Super Bowl XLVI Commentary 5 - The Final Chapter!


Article: Super Bowl XLVI Update - Yahoo.com

1.) The curvy Melanie Amaro's appearance on the Pepsi - Elton John commercial was most welcome! Definitely made up for the shapeless stringbeans we're usually subjected to!

2.) My brother is convinced that Madonna has had "some work done." If so, it turned out well! If she did, her message to other plastic surgery customers would be: "HA! Suck it!"

3.) Galaxy Note commercial was crazily goofy!

4.) To quote the movie "Die Hard" on Brady's critical sack: "The quarterback is toast!"

5.) And, in conclusion: Giants, GIANTS, G-I-A-N-T-S !

Super Bowl XLVI Commentary 4


Article: Super Bowl XLVI Update - Yahoo.com

1.) Did you see the new testing regimen for the Chevy Sonic? I guess pushing it out of a plane and bungee-ing it are required before it's released on the market!

2.) Madonna shows, as many others do, that music is much more about showmanship than decent songs!

3.) Wait a second, Cee Lo Green sings? Thought the dude was just a TV host!

4.) Just curious, is there football during the Super Bowl? This Half-Time deal has gone on so long, I can't remember!

5.) Betty White, as always, turns in the only funny Super Bowl moment!

Super Bowl XLVI Commentary 3


Article: Super Bowl XLVI Update - Yahoo.com

1.) David Beckham? What a douche! Dude came to Los Angeles to play. And, didn't play! Now, he's just doing commercials in his knickers. :-P

2.) Doesn't every Dr. Seuss movie suck? By the way, the answer is yes!

3.) New York still kicks ass! Message to Earth: Bow down to our great city! ;-)

4.) Does every Super Bowl Half-Time Show have to feature a performer who's eligible for Social Security? Yeah, I'm talking to you, Madonna!

Super Bowl XLVI Commentary


Article: Super Bowl XLVI Update - Yahoo.com

1.) Commercials suck!
2.) Miranda Lambert looks good in leather.
3.) Kelly Clarkson's hair sucks.
4.) Pro Bowl guys at coin toss looked like they were at a tax audit!
5.) Tom Brady whiffs on first Patriot's drive.
6.) Commercials: continued, prolonged suckage!

Endless Commercial Breaks!

Do you find yourself watching TV during commercial breaks so long that you forget what show you were watching? I do! Hey, after five minutes, do you really expect me to remember? :-)
