Barry Horn does, well maybe. Who is Barry Horn? Old dude who works for the Dallas Morning News covering “sports media” . Just days after I published my list of Best/Worst D/FW Sports Media Personalities, Mr. Horn released what he called the “Media Mount Rushmore–Dallas Edition.” How do our lists compare? Horn had Kevin Sullivan, …

Two different political documentaries
It’s been a lazy Sunday afternoon in my household and I had the opportunity to enjoy two, very different, yet fascianting political documentaries. The first, from the right, Waco: The Rules of Engagement, which as the name suggests focuses on the Federal governments involvement in the raid on the Branch Davidian compound outside of Waco. …

Sugar High
I look at the opinion polls regarding Barack Obama and I’m puzzled, just like I was puzzled when W. was relected President in 2004. I’ve already established that members of both Bush and Obama administrations were masters at spinning fear, but with Obama I think there is an additional element contributing to his poll numbers. …

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother?
I hate collectivism! Any movement that seeks to enforce community standards on a group of people rapes the individual of his most precious gift–his self. For eight years, the nimrods in the Bush administration tried to legislate an extreme version of evangelical Christianity. I am a Christian, an evangelical even, but I don’t want the …

Politics of fear
Do you remember where you were on the night of March 18, 2003? I do. I was at Players, a sports bar, located on the physical border of Texas and Arkanas in the town of Texarkana. I remember because on that night George W. Bush commandeered the airwaves of every major television station and issued …

Why Can't The English?
This past week our nation marked the end of an eight year nightmare. The George W. Bush administration betrayed the American people, choosing to govern by truly un-American principles. People around the globe rejoiced as Chief Justice John Roberts swore in Barack Obama as the 44thPresident of the United States (or did he?) and many …

The President who cried wolf…
We’re all familiar with the story of the boy who cried wolf, after seeing the Bush administration’s presentation of the $700 billion dollar bailout, I’m convinced that George W. Bush is the President who cried wolf. Leading up to our invasion of Iraq, the Bush administration sent out every one of their minions to convince …

Republicans and drunk drivers…
Looking back, I wish I had purchased a camera phone to ensure that I have at all times, a means of digitally recording those thought provoking moments in life that words cannot explain. As I pulled the drive through of local fast food restaurant on a recent evening, I noticed a beer can, standing upright, …

From the Archives: August 10, 2004
Please note, the following is the first of a multi-part series entitled, “From the Archives,” an attempt on my part to consolidate my previous blogs. The following entry, entitled, “Fear This,” was drafted following the 2004 Democratic National Convention, on August 10, 2004, and is extremely relevant in this election cycle. It’s amazing how my thoughts on …
