Here, thanks to mediamatters.org, is a compilation of Fox ?News? diatribe. Please notice that it is month-by-month, starting right after the inauguration!
So far, the president has played the part of the cartoon Roadrunner, while Fox and the right-wing crazies are Wiley Coyote; despite elaborate plans and actions to undermine his presidency, Obama has been able to blithely ignore their traps and remain focused on issues. As long as this confrontation stays out of the oval office, he should be OK.

Why I Hate the Yankees

For every other major league team, getting into the post-season playoffs denotes a successful season, and anything from there on is considered gravy. The Yankees consider the post season as their birthright; not getting there constitutes a failure of titanic proportions, and being eliminated in any of the series, including the World Series, justifies wholesale firings, drastic changes and raiding of opposition rosters.
The ALDS begins tonight, with the Yanks meeting the Minnesota Twins. The Twins' team salary is $65 million. Three players on the Yankees total MORE than that, and the Yankee team salary is more than TRIPLE the Twins!
Despite the disparity of numbers, the pesky Twins have competed pretty well, and have managed to get to the post season with a regularity that speaks volumes for their management's baseball knowledge and the team skill of their players. They play with a selfless and exciting team spirit the Yankees haven't had since the 60s.
Let's Go Twins! Beat the rich guys!

How much longer?


se�di�tion [si-dish-uhn] �noun
1. incitement of discontent or rebellion against a government.
2. any action, esp. in speech or writing, promoting such discontent or rebellion.
Can anyone out there reasonably hope to defend either Rush Limbaugh(right) or Sean Hannity (left) against such charges? Just TODAY Mr. Limbaugh talked about the possibility of a coup d'etat, and Friday Mr. Hannity devoted considerable air time to his public embarrassment of President Obama, condemning him for not understanding America, its history, or how the government is supposed to work.
Why are we allowing these people to actively foment and promote treason and sedition?
Political criticism is one thing, but the right-wing extremists in this country have gone WAY across the line. When their followers started arming themselves at public political rallies, we should have all been put on notice; we need to put these guys in jail where they belong! Show this 'democracy' that we have the stones to enforce laws that ensure a stable government!
You don't like health care reform? Fine. You think the country's leaning too far toward socialism? OK. But if you start spreading rumors that our President is somehow illegimate, if you think screaming, yelling, gun-carrying public disruptions of the peace are part of the political process, you should be locked up!
Ho Hum -- Just another Jersey 'First'

On April 4, 1964, inspired by a sandwich shop in Point Pleasant, NJ, Tony Conza, Peter DeCarlo and Angelo Baldassare opened up their own submarine shop at 110 Washington St in Hoboken. Looking for a unique name, they turned to a dictionary and settled on the word blimp. With sandwiches ranging from 35 to 95 cents, they rang up $295 in their first day. Years later it has grown into a national chain with 1600 US franchises, trailing only subway and Quiznos. (And WAY better than either of them!) This October 12th the Blimpies in Stirling, NJ will celebrate its 15th anniversary. It's a good store, with nice people, in the Long Hill Twp. Mall, Go visit!
