Keith Olbermann On Racism

MSNBC Commentator Keith Olbermann speaks on racism present and past.  He even goes into the anthropological aspects for a second.

Telemundo sells out to Comcast?

We, social critics, have long noted the Hispano-trash that is transmitted by mega corporations over cable, broadcast and radio. The main topics at Univision seems to be breasts and celebrities, and its served up by people looking whiter than the journalists at CNN.
They have become much slicker at masking their racism. [...]

Thoughts on Terrorism

This post is an attempt to look at terrorism with a little logic.  I try to present facts here.  It is devoid of patriotic emotions over anything.  I admit that I am immune to such feelings, but for those who read this, understand that this is meant to be an analysis of terrorism, not a [...]

More Battle Victories in Immigration Wars

The tide seems to be turning generally in our favor in several battles in the Immigration Wars.  I say that with the ubiquitous caveat that the war is not over (as if that even needs to be mentioned).  In early August, it was announced that Hutto, the immigrant baby jail in Taylor, Texas, would no [...]

Big Props to Stace Medellin of DosCentavos.net on Calling Border Watch Vehicle

Robert Price was arrested in Houston for impersonating a police office, says Channel 2.
