So I Watched the Smallville Movie Event…

Well, Green Arrow has nice hair.

Read Chris Sims for more.

I Am So Torn About This…

On the one hand, this is a tragic story.  A man mauled to death by his own beloved pets.

Of course, the dogs had viciously attacked people in the past, and he was fighting court attempts to put the dogs down.  And that makes this horribly and darkly comic tragedy.  He’s be alive today, had he not fought to save the dogs.

Hows That Hope and Change Workin’ Out For Ya’?

Well, Sarah Palin?

It’s working out better than that “Real America” thing you pitched in 2008.

Sarah Palin spoke for an hour and said nothing.  Not terribly surprising, she has spent a year and a half doing the exact same thing.  You betcha’.  (wink)

When You Murder Thousands…

You don’t really get to claim a TV mini series could “violate your biographical image.”  You are a mass murderer, Carlos-not a warrior.

The Creepiest Thing I Have Seen Today…

Look upon it.  And the doll is creepy as well.

Where the Movie Legion Lost Me…

Even though crazy old woman tried to draw me back in.

The TV goes out and Charles Dutton says, “I told you you should have gotten satellite.”

Yes, because satellite is so effective during atmospheric storms.

Point of Fact

After O’Keefe did that Acorn stunt, he was claiming he was a radical progressive.  He was not a conservative.  Of course, his targets are… Republican talking points.  But really…

If your primary mode of getting the word out and your biggest support is from Fox News?  And the first source you go to is for defense is Sean Hannity?  You are not a radical progressive.

Face It, President Obama is Probably a Cannibal

I don’t think it’s a Surprise that Glenn Beck is a liar and a deceiver…  but really… he did this special to use selective facts and quotes to misrepresent Hitler’s ideology.

Hitler once said that is left out of Beck’s “educational” episode:

“The national government will maintain and defend the foundations on which the power of our nation rests. It will offer strong protection to Christianity as the very basis of our collective morality. Today Christians stand at the head of our country. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit. We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theatre, and in the press – in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past years.”

What a left wing freak.

How far can you make it?

More Power On Fire, Cuz It Means war

I was a bit surprised that I had put 65 songs by Petra on my iPod.  For the initiated, Petra is one of the longest lasting Christian rock bands out there.  They started as a Jesus Music act with a rock edge and eventually because Journey-ish arena rock that had a shtick of “spiritual warfare metaphors”.  They were a rock band parents were comfortable with, because, well, unlike bands like Stryper or Saint?  Petra looked like the listeners’ parents.

That sounds mean, but it really is just the truth.  Petra admittedly had some cool album covers.  Early on they developed a theme of guitars as vehicles that was always kind of cool.  They also had some album and song titles that made them sound edgier than they were (Never Say Die, Killing My Old Man).

Colorblind Casting

Seriously, David and Cheryl Lynn wrote these really interesting and thoughtful posts.  I can’t add anything, because, (rather expectedly) they say it so well, I would just be reduced to basically committing plagiarism.
