Dumbest. Lawsuit. Ever.

May 11, 2006

A guy is suing my beloved Los Angeles Angels b/c he didn’t get a bag at last year’s Mother’s Day Bag Giveaway at Angel Stadium; his lawyer attempts to explain:
By looking at the bag, you can see a 17-year-old male or female would be just as happy with it as an 18-year-old male or female. [...]

Talk bad about the Bush, you no fly

January 9, 2006

The author of Bush’s Brain, a book critical of President Bush and Karl Rove, has been placed on the government’s no fly list. 
REMINDER: Yes, this is still America.  We’ve just temporarily suspended a few amendments, during this difficult time for our President’s approval rating.  Bare with us.

All your property are belong to us

June 23, 2005

Seriously, how can this be legal?:   
WASHINGTON (AP) — – The Supreme Court on
Thursday ruled that local governments may seize people’s homes and
businesses — even against their will — for private economic

Richard Rushfield describes, over at Slate, the experience of cruising Silver Lake with full Bush/Cheney regalia on (t-shirt, sticker on car, etc.):
Slinking away, I stroll down Irony Row; a two-block stretch of Sunset Blvd. filled with boutiques peddling vintage 1970s lunch boxes, summer-camp T-shirts, and baby-doll dresses for grown women. So steeped are its denizens [...]

General Mills on Sinclair Broadcast Group

October 21, 2004

Wrote a bunch of Sinclair advertisers last week, to voice my disdain for supporting such one-sided partisanship from our news media. 
Got my first response today from General Mills.  Apparently they feel it’s OK for Sinclair to play the role of Republican cheerleaders down the stretch, b/c Dan Rather bungled his facts in talking about [...]
