THIS AND THAT – JANUARY 30

What's with Matt lately? I asked the same question Glenn Beck asked in the linked program excerpt when Lauer went after another liberal back before the election. I can't remember who it was now or what it was about but it shocked me. 

The biggest thing about this interview is Gore's claim of Toilet Works or Idiot Science or whatever his "network" was called having been "a TRULY independent network." What a purveyor of duncery and misdirection. I'm certain every liberal/progressive/Anti-American group from Albany to Zambia was backing this farce of a television effort that never drew more than about 20,000 "loyal" viewers but was showered with awards by those same liberal/progressive/Anti-American groups.

Perhaps Matt is becoming weary of his guilt-by-association label in the mainstream liberal media cabal and ministry of truth. Or ways he simply insulted by the fact that Gore apparently duped everyone. Almost, everyone.


OUTDOOR SUPER BOWL


I've gone off on this before but here goes again... HOW THE HELL CAN THE NFL NOW GIVE NEW YORK A FREAKING SUPER BOWL TO BE PLAYED OUTSIDE IN THE MIDDLE OF WINTER?!? In my mind EVERYONE should have the opportunity to at least HOST a Super Bowl. To date, only one team in NFL history has never hosted or participated in a Super Bowl--Cleveland. 

My major objection? Why should teams in warm climates or with domed stadiums be the only teams to potentially be able to play a HOME GAME in a Super Bowl? Jerry Jones thought he was going to pull that one off two years ago and what happened? 1) The Cowboys didn't make it to the playoffs let alone the Super Bowl AND North Texas had ice for the entire week prior to the games.

Just because the NFL wants the Super Bowl to be "pretty" where everyone's uniform stays clean, the field can be easily seen, and Prince, Madonna, et al can perform at half time without wearing Eskimo gear? Horse pucky! 

Rotate hosting of the Super Bowl among the 32 league teams. This will be one way we can help kill Jerry Jone's cash cow (a.k.a., Jerry World) perhaps forcing him to actually put a good product on the field in order to make money. 

Regular season NFL games and even playoff games are played in adverse weather conditions, in this case potentially SNOW and COLD. Is the money THAT important? I repeat, is the money THAT important? Are all the expensive parties and schmoozing and butt kissing THAT important? What does this have to do with football and WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH US? 

Ask Al.




MONDAY MORNINGS

Everyone loves a good soap box drama, right? Well, David E. Kelly is back. You'd have thought people would have given up on this schmuck by now but liberals abound in Hollywood and elsewhere in the arts. His last show only lasted two or three seasons; long enough to irritate the hell out of me. As it appears the program is some sort of medical drama we can expect to hear a lot about the moral and economic rectitude of Obamacare. We certainly heard enough about the horrid practices of insurance companies and the millions of uninsured American's in Kelly's other programs cum propaganda fests. 

My doesn't THAT look like a progressively forthright bunch, the "rainbow doctor coalition"? I'm sure they'll have all the answers to what ails America. [Coughing onto sleeve, "Obama!"]



THE AMERICANS?

I guess it's also time to start bashing Reagan again which is why I'm assuming the new TV program The Americans, with the "c" being a hammer and sickel, is due out soon. The trailer has Reagan proclaiming that "the Soviet Union" is "the enemy" so you know what we're in for.



SOCIAL ENGINEERING?

PBS presented a 2 hour documentary on Henry Ford last night. One aspect that I found fascinating was that Ford at one time had created a "social" department in the Ford Motor Company, one of it's purposes being to investigate the lives of his employees, allegedly to help his multitude of foreign workers become "ideal" American citizens. 

One aspect of this was Ford "social workers" canvassing to determine intimate aspects of the employees' lives--where they lived, their drinking habits, who their family members were, religious affiliations, etc. Ford saw himself as a individual who took seriously how his employees lived in order to "better" their lives. The filmmakers presented this as quite invasive and uttlerly reprehensible.

While watching it dawned on me that the modern "census" questionnaire and the American Community Survey* are just as invasive. The original intent of the census was for determining representation in Congress and to establish the nation's population. Liberals and progressives then started to use it as a tool for collecting all sorts of personal information the ultimate use of is never really clear. Surely I'm not the only person to see this as "invasive" and "reprehensible,' at least I hope I'm not. But since it is the government "investigating" us the liberals and progressives who started this written inquisition think it's OK.
