Video of the Day: Would you let Casey Anthony babysit your kids?

By Jim Vicevich | July 15, 2011 |

No, that’s not a question for you, although it might be something you would want to consider, maybe. No this was a question put to Casey Anthony’s lawyer by Joy Behar. The whole thing is over at Hot Air but it was just too good for me not to repost. Ahh, the pause that refreshes.

Matthews wonders why today’s CEOs aren’t committing hari-kari in shame

By Jim Vicevich | July 14, 2011 |

Ummmm. I’m not really sure what to say here. Is Chris suggesting that today’s CEOs should be jumping out of windows in shame for what he thinks they ‘ve done to the economy? Or, is he just getting misty eyed for the good old days? Help me out here my little mobsters.

CNN’s Special Investigation Unit reports ATF lost track of 1,400 guns!

By Steve McGough | July 13, 2011 |

Holy smokes! Did you hear about this? The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (BATFE) had this program called Operation Fast and Furious that willfully allowed and encouraged otherwise illegal straw purchases to happen at gun stores in Arizona so the agents could track where the guns went and arrest the criminals.

NPR brings in Time Magazine editor to lecture on the US Constitution

By Steve McGough | July 8, 2011 |

If you’re interested in learning about the US Constitution, you should start reading the stuff posted by Aaron Worthing over at Patterico’s Pontifications. Worthing has been cross-posting over at Big Journalism, and during the past week or two has been picking apart Time’s managing editor Richard Stengel’s “does the Constitution still matter” cover story.

Correction Request: Koch brothers did not “help finance” TEA party movement

By Steve McGough | July 6, 2011 |

The New York Times today stated the Koch brothers “helped finance the Tea Party movement.” That implies they were sending checks or supplying banners or PA systems to the small groups of grass-roots individuals to help them fund TEA parties. That’s totally false.

Time magazine author totally misrepresents US Constitution

By Steve McGough | June 23, 2011 |

What a hit piece on the Founding Fathers. I could barely get through three of five pages of Richard Stengel’s article in Time magazine online today. He twists the US Constitution like every good liberal always does. This is nothing new. Democrat and liberal politicians have done this for years. Time to call out the…

Boston mayor not a fan of Nike marketing campaign

By Steve McGough | June 21, 2011 |

Have you experienced a runner’s high? Alas, during my thrice-weekly 5K journeys this spring – a.k.a my personal torture sessions – I have not experienced what is described as a “runner’s high” and my guess is Boston Mayor Thomas Menino (D) hasn’t either.

Why is Politico trying to create a Palin vs Bachmann feud?

By Steve McGough | June 10, 2011 |

Last night, retracto at Big Government strongly suggested Politico authors Paul Goldman and Mark Rozell correct and retract their claim that Sarah Palin demanded she should get the credit for building the TEA party constituency especially since she’s taking constant beating in the media. Of course, Politico made up the entire thing.

Understanding your customer 101 … give them what they want

By Steve McGough | June 8, 2011 |

Straight up … I know little to nothing about the radio industry, but it’s a passing interest since my website here is closely tied to Vicevich’s big radio show on WTIC. I subscribe to a daily newsletter from Talkers Magazine and found this interesting item.

The Weiner Issue: National security, role model and NYC mayors

By Steve McGough | June 7, 2011 |

Say it as many times as you’d like … politicians are not role models. Heck, they have a worse reputation than used car salesmen, but we really should expect more from leadership, whether it be teachers, business leaders and yes … politicians. But it’s not about sexting or morals, national security is the real issue when it comes to…
