NY’s Large Drink Ban, Where Do You Stand?

This week the New York City Board of Health, at the behest of Mayor Billionaire Bloomberg, approved a ban on large sugary drinks. Seeking to reduce runaway obesity rates, the New York City Board of Health on Thursday approved a ban on the sale of large sodas and other sugary drinks at restaurants, street carts and movie theaters, the first restriction of its kind in the country.

Former President Bill Clinton Another DNC Win

Former President Bill Clinton always did have the gift of gab. Couple that with eloquence, confidence, and intelligence and you have a good combination. The DNC 2012 is pulling off a lot of win with Michelle Obama’s speech and now Bubba’s words of wisdom. Whereas the first lady’s speech hinted at Republican inaccuracies and foolishness, Clinton came direct with a ton of data.So much so that FactCheck.org’s recap was called “Our Clinton Nightmare”. Bill gave a lot of information and showed a real understanding of how things work. Slick Willy may be a country boy but he is also a...

Michelle Obama Speech at the DNC

First Lady Michelle Obama addressed the 2012 Democratic National Convention putting a focus on her relationship with Barack, family, and struggle. Admittedly she almost lost me in the beginning.

Obama’s Birth Certificate Middle Finger To All Is Awesome

Look at it. Picture it in all it’s glory. This is awesome. There is a bit of arrogant style in the Obama campaign selling a mug with his long form birth certificate plastered on it. After all the time-wasting ridiculous witch hunting that took place over his place of birth, this is funny as hell to me. Donald Trump should own one. He was vetted by the government, Hawaii confirmed his birth several times, and still these birthers persisted with their thinly veiled bigoted attack against the black man that they couldn’t fathom being in the highest office in the...

Irish President, Michael D. Higgins Tea Partier Smack Down Makes My Day

There’s a 2-year-old audio exchange from May 2010 going around with the President of Ireland, Michael D. Higgins, on a radio talk show with a Tea Party organizer Michael Graham. Well Michael is gave Michael a good what for. At the time the Irish politician hadn’t yet become the president. Graham tries to get a word in but Higgins just steamrolls over him with a passionate tirade of truth and logic that brings a tear to my eye. “You’re about as late an arrival in Irish politics as Sarah Palin is in American politics, and both of you have the same tactic. The...
