Biggest Drain on the Species (Part 2)

Ok so this new series I've started called BDOTS (come on it can't be legit if it doesn't have an acronym) is supposed to be reserved only for the worst of the worst and therefore a fairly rare occurrence. Well, having said that, when it rains it pours. Only days after exposing the cream of the crop, Keith Olbermann, for his outlandish behavior which is nigh satirically beyond touch with reality, someone else has made a complete ass of himself and really negated any class he ever once had.

John Gibson, commentator and overall weird looking guy on Fox News said on his radio show referring to Heath Ledger's death "Well, he found out how to quit you," a reference to a quote from Ledger's somewhat controversial movie, "Brokeback Mountain." Gibson made the quote to the tune of stereotypical funeral music.

Wow, way to stay classy John. Having said that, what John did isn't as bad as what Keith typically does every night on his TV show, which is more or less propagandize his own radical views as news and make up stuff about people with whom he disagrees. Nevertheless, what John said was a classless remark about someone who by all accounts was a good guy who ran into a few problems as his acting career progressed. So....is John a fanatic radical who is a serious danger to civil discourse and intelligent thought? Not as much as those BDOTS is arranged for, but it needs to be acknowledged with some serious disdain. Let the pro's at South Park take care of the offensive jokes John.

Deep State Blues

Late Monday evening, Deputy Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe announced he was leaving his position effective immediately, somewhat earlier than he had initially disclosed, as he was scheduled to leave sometime mid March. Although somewhat of a surprise, McCabe's departure from the FBI means different things to different people.  Democrats and proponents of the Russia collusion story are taking this as a sign that DJT has his new FBI director Christopher Wray are forcing McCabe out. However big of a stink the opposition can make, a President is within his legal right to put in his team into the Department of Justice, regardless the importance of the position, as it is part of the Executive branch.  That being said, it is important to note McCabe is not being fired, he is resigning from his post.  What makes this newsworthy is the timing.  Hours after McCabe announced he was leaving, the House Intelligence Committee voted along party lines to release an internal ...

Biggest Drain on the Species (3rd Edition)

BDOTS is here ladies and gentlemen! Just to refresh anyone's memory who may have forgot exactly how BDOTS (Biggest Drain on the Species) works, the award is given to an individual who's actions/comments are so blatantly hypocritical and self serving, this person is no longer just a detriment to the overall societal fabric, but an obstruction to the advancement of all human kind, and do I have a good one for you today. So good, in fact, that I am going to write to our candidate directly in hopes he may yet read this. Howard Dean, you have been a great sound bite ever since the 2004 presidential campaign. After your colossal campaign collapse, the Democratic National Party liked what it saw in your "grass roots" style, in which you employed eager volunteers with some new invention called the internet, resulting in a fairly effective money raising machine, and gave you the nod as the new DNC leader. Evidently, the DNC must have also liked the complete ineffectiveness...

Speaking of the Louse (Part 2)

This story just keeps getting better and better. Dec. 12, 2007: "On one occasion, in the fall of 2002, I was briefed on interrogation techniques the administration was considering using in the future. The administration advised that legal counsel for the both the CIA and the Department of Justice had concluded that the techniques were legal. I had no further briefings on the techniques...Jane Harman was briefed more extensively and advised the techniques had in fact been employed." Feb. 25, 2009: "No. No the fact is, they did not brief, well first of all, we're not allowed to talk about what happens there, but I can say they did not brief us with these enhanced interrogations that were taking place. They did not brief us. They were talking about an array of interrogations taht they might have at their disposal. But I can say flat out, they never told us that these enhacement interrogations were being used." April 23, 2009: "It is not appropriate f...
