    El Vocero de Puerto Rico (Spanish-language article) ^ | July 18, 2008 | Jorge Luis Burgos & Jorge Rodríguez
    (English-language translation) Police in Glendale County, Arizona confirmed yesterday that 44-year-old Glendaly Vigoreaux Echevarría, daughter of the late [Puerto Rican] TV producer Luis Vigoreaux and actress Lydia Echevarría, was found dead by her husband Paul Hacker in their home on Frier Drive in Glendale, Arizona. According to Glendale Police report PD 08-77459 signed by Sergeant Jim Toomey, agency detectives are investigating Glendaly Vigoreaux's death as a suicide, as confirmed by the autopsy performed by the Maricopa County Medical Examiner's Office. The report indicated that officers responded to a call on Tuesday, July 15 at 9:58 AM from the residence of...

    California’s Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) called drilling for more oil “too simple a solution.” “If we make fuel cheaper again, people won’t have to give up their bad habits,” Schwarzenegger claimed. “Besides, many important people own beach-front property in California. Even the slightest threat to the value of these properties would be intolerable. This is especially so if the reason is to postpone a much needed change in the way ordinary people live and travel.” The Governor proposed, instead, that California voters approve a $10 billion bond as a “down payment” on a $40 billion plan to construct high-speed passenger...

    The BAM Racing team that offered Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign a potential sponsorship deal in the Sprint Cup series disclosed that the Illinois senator declined the opportunity. BAM team spokesman Rhett Vandiver said that Bill Burton, an Obama campaign spokesman told him there would be no sponsorship. “The Obama campaign will not be sponsoring a car in the Sprint Cup series,” said Burton. “Sponsorship would be interpreted as an endorsement of this mindless sport and its fans.” Burton called NASCAR a “significant source of air pollution” and labeled its fans “mostly ignorant rednecks who probably tote guns everywhere they...

    Former professional wrestler and Minnesota Governor, Jesse “The Body” Ventura has cast his hat into the ring as an Independent candidate for the Senate seat currently held by Republican Norm Coleman. Ventura said his candidacy was mainly inspired by a desire to “body slam that smirking, obnoxious twit—Al Franken—into political oblivion.” Franken, the Democratic candidate for the seat, is perhaps best known for his years on the “Saturday Night Live” skit comedy show that has aired on NBC for over three decades. “The ‘Al Franken Decade’ was over more than 20 years ago,” said Ventura, needling the comedian for one...

    RFFM.org Commentary Recently, the Rev. Jesse Jackson shocked the political world when he launched a "sharp" tirade against Democratic presumptive presidential nominee, Barack Obama. Jackson was caught on a live mike before an interview with FOX and Friends (FOX News Channel) regarding the subject of health care, essentially saying that he wanted to remove Obama's reproductive anatomy with a cutting utensil. Jackson drove home his point, for lack of a better phrase, by pantomiming a cutting motion when he talked about the surgical procedure he would like to perform on the junior Senator from Illinois. The story hit the airwaves...

  • Gallup Poll Shows John McCain Tied With Barack

    Politik Ditto ^ | June 29, 2008
    TNR.com: The new Gallup poll showing McCain and Obama tied is very, very welcome in McCainLand. McCain aides insist that two earlier polls--from Newsweek and the LA Times--showing Obama with a double-digit lead were the result of skewed partisan samples and not reflective of real trouble. But they acknowledge that such polls can shape the media narrative in very problematic ways. So from a meta- perspective, this is a big respite from an impending storyline of a McCain disaster. Three issues, I feel, hurt Barack Obama this past week: the utter arrogance he displayed in making up his own "Presidential...

    Presidential contender Senator Obama moved quickly to reassure his Muslim supporters that the apparent discrimination that occurred at two of his speeches in Michigan “was merely cosmetic and should not be taken as a sign that I do not appreciate the value of their support.” The charges of discrimination were leveled by the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) after Obama campaign workers barred two Muslim women from sitting behind the podium because they did not want the women's headscarves to be seen in photographs or on television. The women were reportedly told they couldn’t sit behind the podium unless they removed...

    Some people have focused on the legal issues involving Barack Obama and his campaign's creation of his own "great seal." I am not going to go there, because firstly, no one is going to charge him, and secondly, it is questionable anyway. However, it does show a few things about this candidate. It shows a lack of taste. It shows a height of arrogance and disrespect for the office and the process. And, it shows a little bit about a man who claims to be against an imperial presidency but yet has to have his own seal before he even...

    Jonah Goldberg at The Corner: I caught the beginning of the Daily Show the other night and saw what appears to be a recurring segment: “Barackaphobia.” This, as you might guess, is where Stewart mocks anybody who is overly concerned with Barack Obama’s ideas, background, whatever. In short, anybody who takes stark exception to Obama or the cult of Obama is paranoid. [...]The left loves to characterize conservative dislikes and disagreements as “phobias” and other maladies of the mind. Specifically, conservative “hate” is based on “ignorance” and “fear.” Rhetorically, this tactic amounts to a way for liberals to avoid arguments...

    Rupert Everett, a British film actor, stunned fans when he referred to soldiers as “wimps.” “In my book, unless you’ve taken a hard, hot one up your bum, you’re a wimp,” Everett insisted. The flagrantly gay actor conceded that most people wouldn’t see things his way. “Ordinary men don’t appreciate the risks we have to face on a routine basis,” he complained. “What’s getting your head blown off by a jihadi compared to a slow agonizing death from AIDS?” Everett also lamented the fact that “while soldiers get medals, our courage goes unrecognized.

    Via Jeralyn at TalkLeft: Barack Obama and John McCain are in a statistical dead heat according to the Daily Gallup tracking poll. Why? Seems to me to be the high number of undecideds combined with those who won’t vote for either. As Karl Rove has been mentioning frequently on Fox News, during the same general pre-convention time period, Michael Dukakis enjoyed a 12-14% advantage over George W. Bush. The key appears to be the large number of undecided voters or those who do not wish to vote for either candidate. Why is this so, and how can we take advantage...

On March 17 of this year, Butler-Murray allegedly got drunk and two of her...

We are grateful, but it’s time to move on to our new destiny. I invite the Senator to join our campaign for change.” Others in the Obama camp were less gracious—attributing McCain’s continued opposition to an Obama presidency as “racism, pure and simple.” Supporters of Senator McCain’s bid for the office were...

    Commentary OK. I'll acknowledge this. Tim Russert, the host of NBC's Meet the Press, has developed into a good journalist. But just a few years ago, it would be easy to say Russert's roots were showing and I'm not talking about hair color. You see, before suddenly becoming a journalist, Tim Russert worked as a political hack for the Democratic Party. Russert was a former counselor to Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, and New York Governor Mario Cuomo after that, before being hired by NBC in 1984. It's clear to anyone who watches Russert today he has come a long way....

The explosive device fell through the gun port and landed among McGinnis' fellow soldiers who prepared themselves for the...

    I've long speculated that one of the reasons that Hillary Clinton is still in the race is because she wants to be running should another bombshell like the Rev. Wright scandal hit the Obama campaign. According to Hillary Clinton supporter Larry Johnson, there is another bomb out there, but it won't see the light of day until Obama is nominated: I now have it from two three sources close to senior Republicans that they have video dynamite–Michelle Obama railing against “whitey” at Jeremiah Wright’s church. Republicans may have a lousy record when it comes to the economy and the management...

    Sensing that the time may be ripe for a pompous Hollywood blowhard to enter congress, Actor Alec Baldwin, best known for his buffoonish antics on “Saturday Night Live” and “30 Rock,” says he is seriously thinking about running for political office. “I’ve always had an interest in politics,” Baldwin said. “It was when I did an ‘SNL’ sketch parodying Barney Frank, that I thought—if a lisping pansy like him can get elected to congress, why not me?” Baldwin was undaunted by the potential negative effect on his prospects of a widely circulated voice-mail message in which he called his daughter...

    I've been watching Lost In Space reruns over at hulu.com recently, and it's been quite an enjoyable time. In fact, in many ways I enjoy the show now more than I did as a child, which was a lot. A a child, I loved watching the original Star Trek, of course — and I still do — but I have to admit that in my early childhood I found a great deal of it to be baffling and or slightly scary. Lost In Space, however, was my favorite — the show I'd fight my little brother to see. It was...

    “Legal Dramedy”, is how Wikipedia defines the format of the TV series Boston Legal. Living TV describes the show as a “… critically acclaimed and Emmy Award-winning quirky legal drama …” That is a good summary of why I first became enamored with this brilliantly entertaining program. Unfortunately, it has become increasingly common to hear the production characterized as “shamelessly liberal”. With that, Boston Legal’s brilliance and entertainment value has continued to decline and its charm is rapidly fading for me. Ironically, in a recent episode, entitled “Tabloid Nation”, Boston Legal, itself, addresses my very concern. In that episode, during...
  • Fox Fires Intern for Revealing the Bias We All Know They Have (Barf Alert)

    Fox News, or as I prefer to call it, Faux News, fired an intern for revealing the bias we all have toward the GOP. As MSNBC's Don Abrams said, she apparently did not get the memo that said that on Faux News, "you are supposed to pretend you are fair and balanced." The production assistant, identified as Jennifer Locke, was on assignment with a camera crew to cover the Time 100 Party. Locke: "John McCain, Fox News." McCain: "Fox News, I'm always glad to talk to Fox News." Locke: "I voted for you in the primary." McCain: "Thank you very...

    One of the more conspicuous silences during the whole Bernie Ward saga has been coming from KGO-Radio (810 AM), his longtime employer. Long the Bay Area's ratings king, the news-talk station has -- on the advice of its corporate parent Citadel Broadcasting says KGO president and general manager Mickey Luckoff -- suggested that its on-air talent not talk about Bernie. Not yet. "It wasn't an edict," Luckoff said Thursday, moments after Ward changed his plea to guilty to distributing child porn. "We have never, ever put restrictions on anybody here. We have never put an embargo on what people could...

    REV. LAINIE DOWELL -- ON FAITH Black Liberation Theology Brought To Media Attention Long Ago, But Ignored As I recall, it was during the 1990s when I wrote to Oprah Winfrey about the problems in the Black Baptist Church in America and the NAACP and I asked her to investigate. I never received a response from Winfrey's show which is produced in Chicago, Illinois. I now recall how, in 1985, I was a Preacher at the First Baptist Church of Guilford (FBCG), in Columbia, Maryland. The Pastor at the time was Rev. John L. Wright (no relation to Jeremiah Wright--but...

    Sources close to Arianna Huffington are claiming just that. Arianna Huffington is currently on book tour for her new political tome Right Is Wrong: How The Lunatic Fringe Hijacked America, Shredded The Constitution, And Made Us All Less Safe. She's booked all over CNN, ABC, and CBS (but not Fox News Channel because she chose not to go on there). And NBC? Well, one insider says she was booked on Keith Olberman and Morning Joe to talk about her tome -- and then unbooked. " Arianna's accolytes are pointing the finger at Tim Russert, well known to be ridiculously thin-skinned,...

    Los Angeles, CA--Several thousand protesters have written, faxed or called Fox News executives to protest its launch of a new reality show called Bad Dads. According to Reuters, in Bad Dads child support collector Jim Durham "functions as a sort of 'Dog the Bounty Hunter' for tracking deadbeats...It's ambush reality TV." Fathers & Families, the American Coalition for Fathers & Children, and Los Angeles journalist/radio commentator Glenn Sacks have partnered in a campaign to ask Fox to cancel Bad Dads. Fox's Los Angeles-based producers have decided to launch this Los Angeles-based show on "deadbeat dads" despite the fact that the...

    Michael Moore, producer of the movie “Sicko” and author of the book “Stupid White Men” confirmed his thesis by announcing that he would “vote for a turd as long as it had the Democratic ‘D’ next to it.” To show he was serious, he issued an endorsement of Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill.) for president. “Normally, I don’t like to get involved in politics,” Moore alleged. “If it weren’t for the fact that I’ve made millions off it I’d really hate it. But in these critical times I can’t sit by and let Republicans continue to dismantle our government.” Moore said...
