Amelia Nell & Vocalocity: Rita Hayworth as Gilda- Best Moments
Source:The Daily Review Gilda, is a very good if not great movie that is sort of a great soap opera or dramatic comedy that has everything from mystery, to crime drama, to comedy even. But if you take Rita Hayworth out of the movie and replace her with an ordinary looking woman, or a woman […]
Politico Magazine: Derek Robertson- ‘How Howard Schultz Created a Personality Cult at Starbucks’
Source:The Daily Review I’m not interested in Howard Schultz’s so-called potential independent presidential run at least for this piece, but more interested in what he created not just with Starbucks, but the broader pop culture in America. Starbucks, really since the late 1990s or so is not just just a coffee house, but it’s a […]
AZ Quotes: Bill Parcells- ‘This Is Why You Lift All Them Weights, This is Why You Do All That’
Source:The Daily Review As someone who grew up just outside Washington in Bethesda, Maryland and still live there, I grew up a Redskins fan and still am, ( even though Dan Snyder makes it harder for me to remain a Redskins and NFL fan each and everyday ) it gives me great pain to say […]
Politics and Prose: Dr. Eric Motley- Interviewing Elaine Pagels: ‘Why Religion’
Source:The Daily Review As someone who is Agnostic and proud of it who believes in reason, science, facts, and only has faith in people, things, institutions that I trust based on the evidence that I’ve seen from being around them and talking to them, I can actually see why people would be attracted in religion. […]
The Atlantic: Nora Johnson- ‘Sex and The 1960s College Girl’
Source:The Daily Review At risk of sounding partisan and this is not the first time I’ve taken this risk as a blogger: as much as the Christian-Right and broader Far-Right in America, especially Christian-Nationalists put down and critique Saudi Arabia and other Islamic states for their interpretation of Islam in their government and Islam in […]
Lana Turner Online: MGM Presents Lana Turner- 1948
Source:The Daily Review When think of Hollywood Babydoll Lana Turner, ( which is exactly what she was ) I think of the Queen of the Hollywood Soap Stars. Meaning, her only real experience in soap operas, was being on Falcon Crest in the 1980s, but she lived the life of a soap opera character and […]
Newsweek: Katie Couric- Sarah Palin’s: Five Biggest Gaffes
Source:The Daily Review Similar to Michele Bachmann who said things like America should be less socialist like China, ( an actual Michele Bachmann quote ) it’s hard to pick the five biggest gaffes that Sarah Palin has ever given. To use a sports analogy, she really is the classic case of not ready for prime […]
Sony Pictures Entertainment: The Frontrunner 2018- Hugh Jackman as Senator Gary Hart
Source:The Daily Review I saw The Frontrunner not this Saturday, but the previous Saturday in Silver Spring, Maryland because I wanted to see it obviously, ( no, I was kidnapped and forced to watch it ) but because of the subject matter. I was 11 years old and in the 5th grade in Bethesda, Maryland […]
Claudia Christian: On Making It In Hollywood
Source:The Daily Review Not all actors and actresses, but a lot of them and apparently Claudia Christian is a perfect example of this, but before they become stars they have bills to pay and have to support themselves. Especially if they already have kids and their spouse isn’t rich yet either. Just because you haven’t […]
Graham Brown: Life Is About Choices- We Are What We Choose To Be
Source:The Daily Review Anyone who says that they have no regrets or have never made any mistakes, either is bullshitting you to your face and perhaps thinks you’re an idiot as well, or perhaps hasn’t really lived at all. Perhaps spent their entire life in an institution where everything was done for them and was […]

The Week: ‘Mick Mulvaney- Says Nobody Cares About The Deficit: He Used To Care A lot’
Source:The New Democrat The title of this piece is very important, because before Mick Mulvaney became White House Chief of Staff and even before he was Director of Management and Budget at the White House, he was a U.S Representative … Continue reading
Lew Rockwell: Bionic Mosquito- Liberalism and Christianity: Liberal Christianity
Source:The New Democrat Liberalism and Christianity implies at least that they’re two different things when the fact is there’s a fundamentalist and even theocratic version of Christianity way over on the Right, the Christian-Right in America represents that movement. There’s … Continue reading
The Atlantic: David Frum- President Trump’s Attorney General: ‘A Flaw in American Democracy’
Source:The New Democrat What President Donald Trump, doesn’t seem to understand, unaware of, or could simply care less ( and that might be putting it lightly ) is that even though he’s the most powerful and ranking officer in his … Continue reading
Sargon of Akkad: Interviewing Steve Bannon- Bannonism: The Revolt of The Little Guy
Source:The New Democrat This is a good way to talk about Nationalists and nationalism, because they’re Nationalists and then are Nationalists. Similar to there are Socialists and then are Socialists. Not all Nationalists are Nazis and not all Socialists are … Continue reading
Ron Paul Liberty Report: Ron Paul- ‘Republicans Responsibility For Socialism’s Comeback’
Source:The New Democrat I think the way I would look at this would be to go back to George W. Bush’s Administration. where Republicans with help from Congressional Democrats expanded the Federal role in public education in 2002. And then … Continue reading
Reason Magazine: Nick Gillespie- Interviewing Ken White: ‘Free Speech Is In Just As Much Danger From Right-Wingers’
Source: The New Democrat I guess where I would disagree is with the title of the Reason piece where they say, “free speech is in just as much danger from Conservatives.” Implying that free speech is in just as much … Continue reading
Libertarianism.Org: Free Thoughts- Aaron Ross Powell & Trevor Burrus: Rob Schenck- The Moral Collapse of Evangelical America
Source: The New Democrat If there is a moral collapse of Evangelical America, it can be summed up in two words, which are Donald Trump. I’m talking about the political wing of the Christian-Right in America who are dominated by … Continue reading
