More Media Distortion

I have little to no respect for what passes as journalism and media in this country. Even with that in mind, every day it seems, I am shown how much I obviously overestimate their honor, intelligence, truthfulness, and diligence.
Rush calls them the ‘Drive-by Media’.
But I think things are worse even than that. Most so called journalist are painfully under educated as to the substance of the stories they cover. But worse still are those whose ideology blurs the lines of ethics and infects their work with wink-wink half truths or even outright lies.
Today in The Chicago Sun-Times
was the perfect example of the latter.
Zay Smith, an obvious Leftist and ‘writer’ of the QT section, crossed the line from ideological opinion into downright deception with this line...

Capitol gains
News Item: Vice President Dick Cheney receives $1.9 million tax refund.

Is the statement true? Well, yes it is.
But does it tell the whole story? Or is it made merely to anger those who hate Mr. Cheney and believe the rich love nothing more than to cheat on their taxes?Does it give all the facts? Or is it simply another Bush hater using his to pulpit smear the administration through distortion and half-truths?
Here is the rest of the story from The Wichita Eagle,
a newspaper a tad more interested in telling the whole truth.
The Cheneys reported adjusted gross income of nearly $8.82 million.
The Cheneys donated about $6.87 million to charity from stock options and royalties earned on Lynne Cheney's books.
After subtracting the charitable contributions, the Cheneys' income was $1.95 million on which they owed $529,636 in taxes, according to a statement released by Cheney's office.
Since the Cheneys paid $2.46 million in withholding and estimated taxes over the year, they were entitled to a refund of about $1.93 million.

So, was Mr. Smith’s one-liner the work of an ethical journalist interested in uncovering the truth?
You can be the judge.
And then e-mail Mr. Smith at qt@suntimes.com and let him know what you think of the honor and integrity he so obviously feels for and instills in his so called ‘work’.

Glen

Glen, you're an idiot! Please picture me pointing my non-manicured finger at you while I say it. You claim to be me, yet your post has you, Glen, the gregarious gay man with the one-testicle dog named Mr. Peepers, as the writer.

It is obvious our fan(s) know you wrote that last post, and it is quite the eye opener, not for whom you CLAIMED it was for and by, but for the utter transparency of the lonely call for help and acceptance by and for your gay self.

Cry all you want, it is falling on deaf ears, for no one wants to hear the insane and inane ramblings of a 43 year old queer that lives in his mom's basement playing pong and listening to Mac Davis records while viewing his Farrah Fawcett and Liberace posters one-handed.

You sit there, with your neatly coiffed and colored hair, surrounded by shag carpeting, black lights, and a hooka wondering what went wrong. Perhaps your lapels are too big on that light blue tuxedo you've owned since 1973, but who really knows?

I guess you're still humming that Village People song you started singing this morning in the car. I, on the other hand, am hearing "The Girl from Ipanema" in my head, so just keep flapping your lips...or fingers...or whatever it is you flap because I'm not listening....ASS!

I'm Here, I'm Dave, Get Used to It

I know a lot of you have been waiting for this with baited breath, so I won’t make you wait a moment longer. I, Dave, of Total Kaos on Wide Awakes Radio will give you some insight as to my personal life, good looks, and interests.
I have lived too long in the closet and am choosing this moment and this avenue to take a little peek through the crack in the door.
I like poodles, they’re just darling. And I admire curtains that so match the carpet. I like long walks on a warm Sunday morning with that special someone.
And facials. Lots of facials.
I have an HO scale train set which I spend literally hours tinkering with in my basement. I just love painting all the sets and stations and cute little people. I just shut the basement door and go to town. Choo choo!
And I love bathes. Hot, steamy hour long bathes. Just me, a crisp Pinot Grigio, and my Loofah exfoliating the night away! Just precious.
I am so into The View. If I know I am going to miss it, I make sure I call up Sven and have him TiVo it for me. That Star Jones Reynolds is just a pip. And her skin is so radiant!
But other than that I’m pretty much like everybody else. Just your average Joe six-pack. Sure a little uncomfortable in my skin, but muddling ahead and trying to love myself. Just a regular old guy working my way through the day on caffeine, nicotine, and OxiContin.
So that’s enough about me, why not comment and tell me a little bit about yourselves.

And a Few More Things

Yes, most everything Dave wrote in the last post is true. But even a broken clock is right twice a day.
So lets get to the nuts and bolts here. Basically, what you can expect will be two middle aged white guys with over-inflated views of themselves having a good time at the expense of their listeners and society in general.
We have little patience, and even less pity, for Leftists and Socialists. So Marxists and PETA members enter at your own risk. Feminists bug us. As do entitlement whores and anti-business jag bags. We detest Americans who hate the very country that allows them to be pompous wise asses. We despise those who think their freedom of speech somehow means freedom from repercussions. Our hatred for self induced stupidity knows no bounds. Oh yeah, and we don’t like circus clowns. Or chihuahuas. They are merely overgrown rats whose only use should be to tune up a good wood chipper.
And as far as your previous attack on my heterosexuality, Dave, let’s just remember that Mr. Acorah stained blue dress hanging in your ‘closet’. What was it you said to Derrick, your very own Discovery Channel addiction? Wasn’t it “I wish I knew how to quit you.”? Ah, but enough about your ghoulish long distance romance.
Let’s talk about me.
A little known fact is that I write all of Dave’s lines. The funny ones, anyway. OK, so I wrote two of his lines. In five years.
But he is smarter than I am. He is an ‘MBA’ after all...did I spell that right? Expect him to bring up intelligent articulate discussion and for me to destroy it with bad puns and obscure references. He will then sigh and moan and I will laugh like a stoned school girl.
Apparently Kender has decided our show will be a mere two hours long. The bastard...F’n Kender. I think it would have been longer had Dave not insulted ‘his majesty’ with a song questioning his manhood. So at the hour and fifty nine minute mark, when you’re rolling on the floor laughing and begging for more, just remember it’s Professor Dave’s fault that he brought you to the edge and left you hanging. If it were up to me you’d all be gettin’ happy endings.

A Few Things about Total Kaos

Since Glen is obviously consumed by an alcoholic induced haze, I, Dave (the star of the show) will give you some idea of what is in our show, Total Kaos.

News, Politics, Sports, Opinions, Outdoorsmen section to name a few. Movie reviews of movies we've never seen is a crowd favorite, especially our rating system. We will also review books, however, we actually have to read the book. Blogs and websites we like and hate (Air America is one of my favorites, along with Truthout.org). Glen likes those blogs dealing with men, interior design, and makeovers. You will gain invaluable financial insights during our segment on financial advice from homeless people. Conspiracies and ghost hunting will also be explored.

Of course lots and lots of things will go wrong on our show, and of course we, like liberals, will take no responsibility for anything, so we will be blaming Kender for anything and everything that does go wrong.

We will have many more interesting things going on. Sure, some may say we're just wasting time and space, but what the hell, it's our show. In fact, we already have a best of bit called "Glen and Mr. Peepers his one-testicle dog." I laugh through the whole thing, please forgive me.

Please stay tuned for more posts and Total Kaos updates.

Racism vs the Law

I know a lot of people want to claim racism when discussing the immigation issue. However, the fact is, most Americans do not have a problem with LEGAL immigrants; it's the ILLEGAL ones stupid. These people are breaking the law. I don't care if they're hardworking, down on their luck, trying to find a better life for their kids...DON'T CARE! Of course they are, just like the immigration surge in the early 1900's, only those people went about it LEGALLY. My wife's grandmother was even given a different name by the immigration officials. The point is, they did it legally.

Bush is wrong to say these people do jobs Americans won't do. Americans don't have to do those jobs because welfare PAYS MORE. Let's see...work for low wages...or sit on my fat ass, do nothing, and collect a government check...hmmm...I think I'll try the latter. Can I use my Link card at McDonalds?

Get rid of the welfare state, close the borders, and those wages of those jobs will go up. It's simple supply and demand economics.

Register the illegals. Eliminate all rights and privileges to all illegals including health care and education until they get registered. Springer had the balls to say today that he thought most illegals were having deductions taken from their paychecks...time to check reality Jerry.

Racism has nothing to do with this issue; it's a legal issue. I wonder if I can get out of a speeding ticket by claiming I was pulled over because I'm extremely white, so the cop knows I have a driver's license and one social security card and insurance and that I'll go to court and pay the fines. IT'S NOT FAIR!
