This blog is mainly about the spectacular train wreck at The Sacramento Bee and its parent company, the McClatchy Company. But I also post about current events, the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, politics, anything else that grabs my attention. Take a look around this blog, hope you enjoy it.

NEWS MCcLATCHY WILL NEVER REPORT
Corrupt Obama-Backed Leftist Zelaya Fixed the Vote in Honduras
A Spanish Catalan (TEGICUGALPA, EUROPA PRESS) newspaper is reporting that Honduran authorities have seized computers found in the Presidential Palace belonging to deposed president Mel Zelaya. Taking a page right out of the leftist dictator's handbook, these computers, according to the news report, contained the official and certified results of the illegal constitutional referendum Zelaya wanted to conduct that never took place.
The results of this fraudulent vote was tilted heavily in Zelaya's favor, ensuring he could go ahead and illegally change the constitution so he could remain in power for as long as he wanted to.
WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH NBC, GOING OFF THE RESERVATION? COULD LEMMING MNI BE NEXT TO SAY THEIR messiah HAS NO CLOTHES!
Obama Loses His Cool -- Teleprompter troubles and All-Star gaffes (NBC News)
The most viewed story on the Chicago Tribune website as of this writing is a column asking if President Obama wore Mom Jeans to the mound when he threw out the ceremonial first pitch at Tuesday night's All-Star Game.
So much for the president being the coolest guy on Earth.
...And then came the All-Star game, where he called the place where his beloved White Sox play "Cominskey Field" and threw a first pitch lollipop that would have bounced in front of the plate had Albert Pujols not stepped up with his glove and saved him the ignominy.
And - no gender bias meant but - he threw like a girl.
MEN WORRY THEY'RE FALLING BEHIND IN A 'HE-CESSION' (New York Post)
There's been a lot of panic recently over the current state and uncertain future of the American male, most often expressed by the formerly stoical American male. Obviously, the recession - unofficially and unfortunately dubbed the "he-cession" - is the main cause of worry, with 80% of job losses in the last seven months hitting men.
(It's estimated that 28 million men around the world will be unemployed by the end of the year.) But there's something else going on, a sort of free-floating anxiety about not just the current utility of men but what substantial role, if any, they will not have ceded to women in the future.

Obama Is Speeding Into Carter Country
In a Washington Post article dated tomorrow, Reason’s Matt Welch and Nick Gillespie compare Barack Obama with Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton and rate Obama as Carteresque:
“So far, [Obama] seems to be skipping the chapter on Bill Clinton and his generally free-market economic policies and instead flipping back to the themes and comportment of Jimmy Carter.
Like the 39th president, Obama has inherited an awful economy, dizzying budget deficits and a geopolitical situation as promising as Kim Jong Il’s health. Like Carter, Obama is smart, moralistic and enamored of alternative energy schemes that were nonstarters back when America’s best-known peanut farmer was installing solar panels at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Like Carter, Obama faces as much effective opposition from his own party’s left wing as he does from an ardent but diminished GOP.
And perhaps most important, as with Carter, his specific policies are genuinely unpopular.”

Smoking Gun: Zelaya Computers had 'certified' results for referendum that was never held Rick Moran
This has been all over the Honduran and Central American press for more than 24 hours but, as Alberto de la Cruz of Babalu Blog points out, no English speaking wire service or media has picked up on it yet.
Of COURSE they wont carry it in the mainline US MSM press. Whey would a turkey lobby for Thanksgiving?
The truth in this matter (Honduras) is very much in opposition to their agenda and their political position.
The MSM is of course not neutral. They are leftist and often at core, anti American. So anything that dirties the images of socialists trying to topple democracies in our hemisphere, they are going to "spike".
The oldest game in the book. And they are very good at it.
Re: Ted Kennedy Kills Mary Jo Kopechne. The dishonest media just ignores the disgusting Kennedys' wrong doings. How about promoting JFK as such a fine family man, while he porked a movie star? He had to be lying to his wife and children about his escapades to dull his overactive sex drive. All that time we thought he was in a rocking chair for his bad back, when he was resting his, well, his, stimulus package!
AS STUPID AS McCLATCHY, BUT THEN MAYBE SHE NEVER HEARD OF McCLATCHY
Janeane Garofalo: There Is Almost No Liberal News Outlet in America (BBC Radio)
I've often wondered what the color of the sky is in Janeane Garofalo's world, and after hearing her interview on BBC Radio Saturday, I'm convinced this woman lives on another planet.
After all, in her view: "[T]he media in the States is much more to the right. I mean there is almost no liberal outlet for news commentary or editorializing."
This coming from a woman who used to host a program on the far-left-leaning Air America Radio, and is a frequent guest on Keith Olbermann's "Countdown" as well as Bill Maher's "Real Time."
Such idiocy made it all the more fitting that after she finished her chat with the BBC's Clive Anderson, Garofalo ended up cutting her comedy routine at the Latitude festival short due to the audience's seeming disinterest in her views.
I mainly remember JFK as the guy that nearly started two nuclear wars, and betrayed Cuban patriots.
But His Excellency the Royal Idiot, the Duke of Delmont, Sir Rhosis of Liver, Count of Cutty, Baron of Beer, Chivas of Regal, and Captain of the S.S. Oldsmobile, is trying to do to America what he did to Mary Jo, drown us all in a sea of Marxist madness.
garfolo, like McClacthy simply use the time honored communist propaganda tactic of telling a lie long enough, and loud enough so the sheeple take it as the gospel truth.
NO WONDER DEAR LEADER SUPPORTS (dont' meddle)IRAN, N. KOREA AND VENEZUELA, BUT NOT HONDOURAS (let's meddle it's democratic)
The Venezuelan president, Mr Chávez, has threatened war on Honduras’s de facto government, and had previously... sent voting machines to the Central American country for the referendum on constitutional reform that sparked Mr Zelaya’s overthrow.
Mr Chávez also provided a plane for his failed return to Honduras last Sunday.
Working Americans are already feeling the force of Socialism upon them, IMHO. ----- Quote - With bloated, TARP-assisted earnings, comes the return of good old class resentment: "It's not merely that Americans have, at least temporarily, abandoned the hope that they'll earn scads of money. It's the widespread sense that winners in this economy are produced by a game that's rigged." Comment @ http://seekingalpha.com/
Janeane Garofalo is completely unhinged. I don’t know why any network would allow her warped views to be aired. It makes them look as ridiculous as she is.
Kennedy killer gets a softball story. Typical, liberal press spin for their contemptible family cover-ups. ---- -Kennnedy cousin Skakel, other prison inmates, turning to art- Associated Press Writer
NEW HAVEN, Conn.—Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel, imprisoned for killing a teenage neighbor, is spending some of his time in prison creating art that depicts beauty, danger and the loss of innocence. [Gag]
Here is another thing to think about Re: abortion. With all emotions and moral issues aside: As long as the Govt. supports abortion, they are in effect killing future tax payers and therefore cutting their own throats fiscally. Why is the economy in the "fine shape" it is now...because the first wave of the Roe V. Wade generation is entering their mid 30's. Count how many abortions have taken place and how many potential taxpayers lives were cut short. On a fiscal standpoint alone, it makes good sense for BO to continue this evil practice...NOT! With govt. sponsored "universal" health care, we will in essence be paying for the Govt. to continue this horrible trend...subsidized by the Govt. (read taxpayers) and promoted by the Prez. and the press.
McClatchy better update it's web site. It is getting old and stale...for example... http://www.mcclatchy.com/146/story/439.html The Modesto Bee Production: The Modesto Bee and many other products are printed on our Goss Flexoliner printing press. Built in 1988, it is the first press of its kind ever built exclusively for newspaper printing. Installation of the press coincided with a remodel of The Modesto Bee building in 1988. The press was moved in, and then the west wall was filled in around it.
Need to ad: In 2008 the entire production department was laid off and the production moved to Sacramento where the Modesto Bee is now printed on an inferior GOSS Colorliner.
Quick thought on the furloughs. Isn't it strange that they are all "coming" due right now?
I mean, why not wait until Tuesday's quarterly report to use that as a "reason" for them?
Could it be that corporate is going to report "good" news like Gannett did and after that it will be tougher to give a reason to implement the furloughs?
NEW HAVEN, Conn.—Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel, is spending some of his time in prison creating art that depicts beauty, danger and the loss of innocence. [Gag]
That's becuase he desperately needs to look at his art, right before Bubba violates him for the night, again.
///Sweetheart/// You simply cannot compare Ann Coulter to Garofalo. Coulter has sold millions of books, and publishes a weekly syndicated newspaper column. The same is true of Limbaugh. He has millions of listeners, and has written several books. Garofalo is a minor whackjob at best. I can’t even think of a person to help you with your comparison to Garafalo.
12:10 PM, I would guess it is mostly atheists and liberal Democrats that abort their own children without serious thought. One could look at it as millions of future liberals being culled. Abortion is aimed at the unwanted, and undesirable.
Re: “equally scumbags” Comparing bad behavior is difficult, but the Gov. mentioned had an affair with a consenting adult female. Ted Kennedy left a young woman to die. There is no comparison between these two acts. One is an embarrassment, the other is death.
For the poster who says that we should not talk about Ted Kennedy because "plenty of Republicans are equal scumbags" I have a few questions? Really? Some one currently serving as a honored and respected member of the party left a girl to die in a submerged car? Some respected Republican leader was "dating" a campaign worker? Some current respected, even adored(remember the "great lion) member of the Republican party used his family connections to cover up a wrongful death? Really? Got an example? Most Republicans don't make that kind of mistake. Those that have affairs usually leave public office. It's only the dems like Kennedy and Frank that um...screw up... and are idolized for it. The point, nitwit, is that the media deep sixes the whole Kennedy history. If Kennedy had an R behind his name, it would not be old news but a needed bit of perspective.

Stupid and worthless post. Plenty of repubs are equally scumbags also. Get over yourself.
///Garofalo is the living definition of left-wing whackjob. Even lefties avoid her like the plague.///
Yes, they do. Unlike "righties," who embrace tgheir whackjobs, like Limbaugh, Coulter, et al.
Stupid and worthless post.
You're right...the dirty leftist bastard left her to die in the agony of a cruel and horrifying death.
All Kennedy's and their defenders should go out the very same horrifying way. Every single one of you.

Following, are two of the Dems current talking points. They try to work them into every conversation and news story.
“Obama has inherited an awful economy, dizzying budget deficits”
“from an ardent but diminished GOP.”
The old ploy, if you keep repeating a lie; the strategy the newspapers made famous.
