That’s what I would’ve titled the film, “Knocked Up,” had I been in charge.
Hmmm, this one has a been a long time coming.  Honestly, besides being a very fractured film in itself, it’s nothing much more than right-wing pro-life propaganda….People often think of Hollywood as very left-wingy, but really that’s not always the case.  What [...]

Yeah, I’m gonna go there.
If you look at the current abortion policies nationwide (which I haven’t), what we pretty much have are laws that differ from state to state.  With this issue being such a controversial one, giving the states the right to decide how to handle abortion is probably the most fair, to everyone.
When [...]

I’m sure you know some people who have been in the same relationship for a long time, but aren’t married.  I’m talking about at least a 5+ year relationship here, if not even longer like 10 or 20+ years.
People who are in relationships like these are pretty much married, just not officially-officially.
I was recently talking [...]

Have you heard this story?  There are plans to build an Islamic mosque on ground zero of where the 9-11 attacks took place.  Well, the mosque would actually be built a couple of blocks from ground zero, but what’s the difference, right?
This topic has been the cause of some outrage (mostly from conservatives, but even [...]

Just to quickly get it out of the way, there is no question for me when it comes to believing that the legal drinking age should be 18.   The gambling, drinking, and smoking age should all be 18.  EVERYTHING should be 18.
I mean, can we please have some uniformity here?  You can get shot for [...]

The other night I caught a glimpse of Celebrity Apprentice, and I noticed that Rod Blagojevich, a former politician, was one of the contestants.  I’m sure many of you already knew this.
However,  I could give 2 shits about stupid shows like this one.
Anyway, I remembered he was the former governor of Illinois.  You know, that [...]

Believe me, I’m no environmentalist, and I rarely go out of my way for the planet — a planet that’s likely gonna be around for way longer than the human species currently inhabiting it.
However, here in Southern California, it’s pretty much common knowledge that the limited water supply is cause for concern, and something we [...]

Mostly everyone is familiar with this story.  Parker and Stone, the creators of South Park, recently had some fun when it came to the question of whether or not they should depict the Muslim Prophet Mohammad in an episode.  To me, it’s pretty irrelevant how they even portrayed him. (Mohammad was in a bear costume [...]

It’s this same image/public relations bullshit that existed with FDR — how the public never really saw him in his wheelchair.  If photographs or video were regularly shown with President Obama smoking cigarettes, would all hell break loose?
I suppose on many levels, it’s wrong for kids to see a “leader” smoking, and this can become [...]
