Keith Olbermann – True patriot

Posted by Curtis Haring in Bush Administration, Iraq, Media

Once again, Keith Olbermann is showing the folly of the Bush administration. On Monday Olbermann presented this special comment that I feel is worth your time to watch/read: President Bush has resorted anew to the sleaziest fear-mongering and mass manipulation of an administration and public life dedicated to realizing the lowest of our expectations. And [...]

How Dare You?

Posted by Curtis Haring in Media

Chelsea Clinton was asked to respond to a question that went along the lines of “is your mom credible because of the Monica Lewinsky scandal?” Her response was: Is this what the next batch of reporters are learning in our colleges? I am willing to bet that the man who asked the question was some [...]

The Internet and Local Politics

Posted by Curtis Haring in General, Media

Information is just a mouse click away, and people take advantage of this whenever possible. But I have found that the political world has been slow to adopt technology, [...]

What the HELL?!

Posted by Curtis Haring in Media, Salt Lake Mayors Race 2007
