Get Your Dunkin Tuesday

Wow, what a clusterf*ck yesterday. I thought all news dumps were supposed to happen on Friday and get swept under the rug. Is it me or is all of it rather small? I'm don't care about the IRS "scandal", to me it makes sense after the Freedomworks debacle. It looks like the AP thing is more about AP and I already forgot what else I'm supposed to be angry about...

Here are your highlights:

Dick Cheney still evil still stupid

They've tried for over four years to pin Obama as corrupt and black

Six Retailers Sign to Upgrade Factories

GOP outreach

Reality Check on scandalmania

Austerity Kills Literally

Chow!

If the IRS scandal was somebody at a high level in the white house directing the IRS to target tea partiers, that would be a scandal. So far all evidence points to low level bureaucrats being overzealous. Though you can expect Republicans and their media machine to portray it like Obama is the second coming of Nixon.

Bengazhi is bullshit. This we know.

If the AP thing gets amplified by the right into a scandal, that would be pretty hilarious given that it was Republicans who were putting pressure on the white house to launch that investigation. That said, I do take issue with the government doing anything that might give pause to the press in doing their jobs.

Teh Funny Writes Itself

Not only is Obama teh devil and hates teh Jeebus , but also too and what have you, he is pushing the most aggressive liberal policies ever and destroying the country . ON TOP OF THAT, he is guilty of being completely incapable of performing his basic duties as president, a "new-hire college graduate" and surrounded by lazies . It has become increasingly difficult to write satire these days. I can't tell if the right-wing in America is attempting to out crazy comedians in order to render the jokes useless or the scarier and more likely; they have lost their minds and now fully embrace it.

Ch ch Changes

I think this place needs a makeover or I might archive the whole thing. I post thoughts to Twitter mostly these days and haven't had any time to maintain this space with long-form writing as intended. The political world right now is a total shit show. Trump is a disaster. The Dems have an NFL roster running for president. Climate Change is going to crush the planet and we're busy yelling at each other while getting nothing done. And I keep getting this eery feeling a recession is headed our way...woohoo! In personal news, we just added another addition to the Chow family, a little girl, and I got Dad life to hone in on...two is a welcomed challenge. Any advice for two kid life, let me know! That's all I got right now. Gotta sit and think on it some more. I am Frank Chow and I approved this message

Get Your Dunkin' Thursday

It's Thursday that means we have a new American Idol and it's... it's Kris Allen? Guess America still hates the "flamboyant", I smell a Clay Aiken retread. I didn't watch much of this year because it really came down to Danny Gokey and Adam Lambert for me and once I heard Kris Allen was in the final it was over in my mind. America votes for the "more likable" guy . But you know what was cool? Adam Lambert singing Queen! You could see the guitar legend Brian May drooling over the Freddy Mercury-esque vocal runs. It was rocktastic. Regardless both will have decent careers and the pie on the face of my local paper for running story after story of Adam is rather funny. Both guys have promising careers, there is always room for another Jason Mraz and America needs a Freddy Mercury . Wow. Did I really just dedicate that much analysis to American Idol? Here are your highlights: Bomb plot thwarted in New York , can't have terrorists in our prisons, sen...
