Reformed Chicks Blabbing

Here’s a letter from someone in Tehran who obviously wants to remain anonymous describing the fallout from the election: It’s becoming increasingly clear that this was a palace coup, a palace coup in the style of Peru’s Fujimori. The Guardian Council has to accept the election results. All eyes are now on Hashemi Rafsanjani, who…

You can keep up with the chaos that ensues today as the broadcast channels switch from analog to digital here. My husband isn’t here and I’m not sure how to rescan the channels, I hope my daughter can figure it out 🙂 (via)

Wow! Shocking that NOW standing up for a conservative woman, I thought conservative women lost their right to complain about sexism because we are pro-life: Letterman said he was referring to Palin’s 18-year-old daughter, Bristol — not the 14-year-old daughter who actually accompanied Palin on her New York trip. Letterman said “I recognize that these…

Letterman defends his jokes about Palin’s 14-year-old daughter (no apology): Link: In making his defense he says that he wouldn’t make jokes about a 14-year-old having sex but unfortunately for him, he did. As I noted, Willow was in attendance not Bristol. His jokes were aimed at the daughter in attendance. Not naming the daughter…

Like Twitter, Facebook and Flickr: Army public affairs managers have worked hard to share the service’s stories through social sites like Flickr, Delicious and Vimeo. Links to those sites featured prominently on the Army.mil homepage. The Army carefully nurtured a Facebook group tens of thousands strong, and posted more than 4,100 photos to a Flickr…

If you’ve been off the Internet for the last two days or haven’t been watching TV, then you might have missed the inappropriate joke made by a 62 year-old man about a underage minor (a point made by Palin in response to Letterman’s jokes): The “Late Show” host also took a shot Palin’s daughter, while…

I’ve noticed there are some who are skeptical about the motive for the firing. They believe she was fired for her Christian beliefs but if she wasn’t meeting her contractual obligations by not attending scheduled appearances and continuing to use her public appearances to promote herself, not the pageant, then I can see why Trump…

The guard is in critical condition : A lone gunman wounded a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum on Wednesday before being injured by return fire, according to police and a museum statement. The suspect was identified as James von Brunn, an 88-year-old white supremacist from Maryland, two law enforcement officials told CNN.…

An abortionist is gunned down in his church by a fanatic and to honor him the Philadelphia Women’s Center offered free abortions. Amazing. What price do we put on human life? Free. Tiller’s legacy continues to be death: The Philadelphia Women’s Center gave away free abortions today in honor of Dr. George Tiller, the abortionist…

How intolerant of her to bash middle America and Christians. Um…doesn’t she (and the rest of the Hollywood elites) get that middle America goes to the movies as well? That these are the people who support her industry and without them, a movie bombs. The “Transformers” bombshell-cum-uninhibited philosophizer also contemplates — reluctantly — what she…
