What is it about natural disasters that brings out so much stupid on both sides of the political aisle?
Haitians are suffering. We should debate how best to help them in the short and long term.
But how about a ceasefire on this kind of crap, via Tim Blair:
“Actor Danny Glover believes that the Haitian earthquake was [...]

Nutroots hero Michael Moore sent the state of Connecticut a boycott threat and demanded that voters there recall Joe Lieberman over health care.
His Tweet:
People of Connecticut: What have u done 2 this country? We hold u responsible. Start recall of Lieberman 2day or we’ll boycott your state.
One itty-bitty problem: Connecticut has no recall mechanism.
In fact, [...]

The two most important questions for society, according to the Greek philosopher Plato, are these: What will we teach our children? And who will teach them? Left-wing celebrities have teamed up with one of America’s most radical historians to take control of the classroom in [...]

Reader Alex e-mails: “During the finale of ‘The Biggest Loser’ last night, NBC aired a promo spot for an episode of Law and Order where a conservative talk show host is put on trial for murder based on creating a ‘climate of hate.’ I know you’ve covered this aspect of the census worker story…”
Indeed. [...]

Indoctrination Watch.

Ah, the wit and wisdom of Joy Behar.
She has called homeschooled children “demented.”
She has called me a “selfish bitch.”
She has called Sarah Palin “dumb” and “not coherent.”
Last week, the genius View co-host seriously suggested that “Black Friday” is RAAAACIST.
It was left to economics professor Whoopi Goldberg to explain what “in the black” means.
You can [...]

I don’t care about Adam Lambert’s sexuality. What he did at the American Music Awards was just gross. More to the point: It was certainly not “music” or “entertainment.” It sounded like kittens being boiled in hot oil while a kindergarten class pounded on ’80s synthesizers and a Rock Band drum set.
Egad, this is [...]

The Obamas weren’t the only big losers today. No happy dance for FLOTUS “chit-chat buddy” Oprah.
Better luck next time:

Michael Moore: Champion of the working man…except when hiring his own film crew.
Hire as he says, not as he hires.

I got a tip from several readers that David Letterman told his TV show audience tonight that he was blackmailed over his sexual trysts with staffers. One source says Letterman’s cast and crew have been told in a memo from a Rob Burnett not to post anything on any social networking sites and to refer [...]

Hollywood and MoveOn.org had their say.
Now, Americans who don’t drink the Obamacare kool-aid have theirs. Kudos!

Those are the words of Hollyweird hero and convicted child rapist Roman Polanski.
Sicko.
For a running tally of the crime-coddling apologists in the arts community joining the “Free Polanski” bandwagon, go here.

Patterico reported over the weekend that lecherous child predator/director Roman Polanski’s Washington Post defender Anne Applebaum failed to mention in her latest pro-Polanski blog post that her husband is a Polish politician actively lobbying for Polanski’s freedom.
Applebaum now says she “had no idea that my husband, who is in Africa, would, or could do anything [...]

I wrote about perv director Roman Polanski’s pampered fugitive life six years ago here.
Justice is finally catching up with the admitted seducer of young girls. He was arrested in Zurich this weekend, much to the “great consternation and shock” of his friends in the artistic community.
For a graphic reminder of what Polanski is accused of [...]

So, now the White House has issued “new guidelines” in the wake of the “inappropriate” political lobbying call coordinated by the National Endowment for the Arts and exposed by Patrick Courrielche .
Translation: Instead of delivering “specific asks” to potential government grant recipients, they’ll stick to non-specific asks on behalf of Hope and Change.

Make a note of the Hollywood celebrities featured in this health insurance industry-bashing joint production from MoveOn.org and Will Ferrell, Jon Hamm, Olivia Wilde, et al.
No word yet on whether they’ll be making a protest video about the fund-raiser for Nancy Pelosi in Washington, D.C. being hosted by UnitedHealth care lobbyist Steve Elmendorf — [...]

Did the National Endowment for the Arts subsidize actress Victoria Rowell’s dress at the Emmy Awards? (h/t Allahpundit)
Blech:

Last month, Big Hollywood’s Patrick Courrielche broke news on how the NEA was rustling up artists to help “serve” the White House political agenda.
Big Government’s Mike Flynn and John Nolte have a follow-up here.
(Updated: Courrielche has posted audio from the call contradicting the NEA’s spin here.)
And the Washington Times — which reported earlier this [...]

My column below memorializes some true American heroes whose funerals won’t get wall-to-wall cable coverage. But first I wanted to share an e-mail from reader Noelle, who wrote me yesterday:
We spent a nailbiting Sunday wondering if one of the men killed at [Combat Outpost] Zerok in Afghanistan on July 4th was our son. God [...]

Oh, Sheila.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee has authored a congressional resolution honoring Michael Jackson.
Seriously.
You can read the whole thing here.
As The Hill’s Eric Zimmermann notes, it’s looooong.
Sample:
Whereas Michael Jackson began his stellar recording career as the featured member of ‘The Jackson 5′, which was the first act in recorded history to have [...]

Pimps and things.

Members of Congress don’t have enough time to read through the 1,200-page cap-and-trade (truth in advertising: cap-and-TAX) monstrosity that will radically alter the economy in the name of the environment…
…but they have time to pause for a moment of silence to mark the death of Hollyweirdo Michael Jackson.
Can we have a moment of silence to [...]

So, you know by now that Michael Jackson died today after cardiac arrest (just a few hours after the death of Farrah Fawcett).
His adult life was marred by lurid molestation charges, endless displays of bizarre behavior with his three children, plastic surgery horrors, and financial mayhem.
But he was a musical genius in his early days [...]

Over at Big Hollywood, Mark Corallo explains how and why his 11-year-old son gave the best advice possible to parents who may be considering taking their kids to see the movie version of Land of the Lost, starring Will Ferrell:
Walk out. Don’t go. It’s gratuitously sexualized crap.
Such a shame. We bought the DVDs of the [...]

It’s so rare to hear a Hollywood dissident speak as candidly as Jon Voight did last night at the NRSC-NRCC fund-raiser last night. Brave man. Here’s the clip. And thank you, too, Mr. Voight!

Every few days I like to post something to remind us that, in spite of all the madness and stresses that may encompass our daily lives, we remain inexorably sane and grounded in comparison to some of the attention-starved, hypocritical, “phonier than the contents of bikini tops on Malibu beaches” Hollywood Left sect.
Today’s poster-boy for [...]

White men can hallucinate

The New York Post reports the sad news that actor Ron Silver has died. He succumbed to cancer. The 9/11 jihadi attacks were a pivotal moment in Silver’s political evolution from Hollywood liberal to Hollywood hawk: “‘I think there are September 10 people and there are September 11 people. I’m one of the latter. Everything [...]
