Chris Matthews Calls West Point the "Enemy Camp"
Chris Matthews engages in the worst kind of political rhetoric. President Obama is commander-in-chief of the U.S. Armed Forces and the cadets at West Point are defenders of freedom. We're all on the same team Chris, despite our political differences.

UPDATE
Chris Matthews apologized for his comments last night about West Point being the "enemy camp." Good for him.
Wants To Be An American Idiot
The tingle in his leg may be nothing more than desire to get his same-sex marry on with our President. But the feeling in (anchor of MSNBC's "No Balls") Chris Matthew's gut, that our Commander In Chief, infiltrated the training grounds of the enemy, to deliver his latest expression of self-superiority, is fucking ludicrous.
Act II: Back in the Habit
Howdy folks.
After another weekend in the back of beyond (aka Newcastle. Not really back of beyond. Girlfriend is living there at the moment and such. Also, too much info in parenthesis.), I am back to resume my slightly-more-updated-than-I-thought-it-would-be stream of whatever this is. This, along with a probably misinformed Sister Act reference isn't really setting the tone for an insightful post, so let's start again.
Ahem.
HELLO THERE!
I trust you had a good weekend. I had a nice one indeed.
A few snippets of stuff will do it for today:
- I've decided not to make any particular effort to post at weekends. If it happens, it happens. Otherwise, I'm most likely off doing stuff. As people probably should at the weekends.
- I've started catching up on FlashForward. I'm just finished watching episode 6, and it was a bit shit, really. I'll give it one more episode to get me hooked back in again, else I'll give up on it.
- With BNO News sorting out a deal with MSNBC, more details about BNO came out today. I found out the founder is 19. 19 years old. Granted, this is the same age as my girlfriend, but I was a little taken aback. I'd always assumed he was much older. Anyway, I should get to my point before I bore myself too. This fact brought with it the recurrence of an inferiority complex that invades me every once in a while. Whenever I hear of someone around the same age as me or (especially) someone younger than me doing something remarkable, I have this odd feeling that I'm completely useless in comparison. I get myself into a fleeting bout of depression because of it. It's quite weird. And more than likely a little emo, if I'm being honest.
- I am considering importing my old LiveJournal here, but considering that's full of mostly teenage babble, I probably won't bother.
Forgive me for this slightly odd post. It's been a long day with a ton of things to do. Hopefully, things will be a bit more jovial tomorrow.
This is America.
New Orleans, La. — - It happened as I watched a 50-something woman walk out, after spending several hours being attended to by volunteer doctors. "She's decided against treatment. A reasonable decision under the circumstances," the doctor tells us as she heads for the next patient. The president of the board of the National Association of Free Health Clinics tells me why: "It's stage four breast cancer, her body is filled with tumors." I don't know when that woman last saw a doctor. But I do know that if she had health insurance, the odds she would have seen a doctor long ago are much higher, and her chances for an earlier diagnosis and treatment would have been far greater.After watching for hours as the patients moved through the clinic, it was hard to believe that I was in America.
Please read the entire piece and then remember the names of all the politicians fighting health care reform. And remind yourself that they don't have to worry about visiting a free health clinic .
It's Not Bias If It's In Your Favor

If you've been keeping up with the media war between the White House and Fox News, just remember that it's not bias if it's in your favor. Of course the White House is going to have a quarrel with Fox News. They slant to the right and are critical of White House policy. They're not going to have a beef with MSNBC or CNN because they slant to the left and don't seem to question the policies.
In the end it's a matter of perspective, but unfortunately this is a dangerous game being played by those in power and in the end the public will loose far more than just a cable channel they may or may not agree with.
We're fortunate to live in a country with multiple news sources to choose from. If you don't agree with what you see or read, choose another. We're even more fortunate to engage those news sources through the technology we have today and offer up our own alternative point of view. How many people in the world have the freedom to do that?
Attacks on a news outlet regardless of their views or reporting is really an attack on all news outlets. If they attempt to drive out or marginalize one, who's to say they won't go after another... then another... and another until the news becomes a mouthpiece for those in power.
This is where it all starts and if you ask your friends and neighbors they'll certainly have their opinions on which news outlet they prefer. Great! Terrific! Let's celebrate. However, let's not celebrate attacks on the press. We have it for a very good reason and we still have the freedom to decide on the information we want to comsume and what we want to reject.

Not sure why you think this is more newsworthy than natural disasters in the Phillipines, Rachel Maddow. But I love it.
