During Israel's 60th anniversary, President Bush identified one key similarity between Obama's "appeasement" towards Iran and Neville Chamberlain's ultimate mistake: talking to Hitler. As Joe Biden consequently remarked, "this is bulls**t" (Note: Biden talks with asterisks). While talking to the Israeli Knesset (like Congress, but spelled...

The MySpace mom, 49-year-old Lori Drew, has served as a tragic role model for her own kid by creating an online account purporting to be a 16-year-old boy in order to communicate with and humiliate a teenage girl by pretending to "romance" and then "break up...

Similar to every American company trying to turn around its public appearance, I care about global warming. I've put in compact fluorescent bulbs, brought reusable bags to the grocery store, and tried to find cow chips to replace my gas heat. These steps are a start, but I don...

While sitting in an Internet style cafeteria (or it may be an ice cream parlor) in Fargo, North Dakota, I realize I am sick of Eugene Mirman and Marc Maron. They are at the same table as me, and have no idea I am complaining about them right now. They...

My new book, Apocalypse How, is about how the world is about to end...and why we should be psyched! It's the first-ever work of apocalyptic literature that "accentuates the positive"--and teaches you how to not just survive, but thrive. As with any exciting new endeavor, however...

Superdeluxe.com has folded. A website which employed many stellar comedians and paid them quite fairly for their short, viral, videos is being quietly put to sleep and will shortly awake as Adultswim.com. As a person who just figured out how to program a VCR, I have not yet...

I hope you're damn proud of yourselves, gay people in California! I hope you're proud of destabilizing the balance of California marriage! Did you, for one second, think of all those people who would have married people of the same gender for years but didn't because they...

"Some seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along. We have heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: "Lord, if only I could have...

On the campaign trail and discussing his statement that the U.S. will be out of Iraq by 2013, John McCain really said, "It's not a timetable; it's victory. It's victory, which I have always predicted. I didn't know when we were going to win World...

Little League Coach - Larry Cadilliero Quickly pin pointing the children on his team that had talent and athletic ability, Cadilliero pored all his attention upon these few children and generally ignored and occasionally ridiculed the children he felt lacked in natural ability. The team proved lopsided in play and lacked...

Like a blind squirrel tripping over a discarded acorn, the pundits may have accidentally stumbled onto a similar nugget of truth in their speculation that Hillary is making Barack a better candidate. Or maybe he's just a quick learner. Either way, Mr. Obama seems to have gotten real good...

It's a bad week to be a chicken, especially in Seoul, where detection of the bird flu virus led to the slaughter of all poultry in the South Korean capital (about 15,000 birds in all). Fortunately, the PETA chicks who protested the United Egg Producers in D.C...

Times are hard, and our trusted TV hosts, who should know better, are becoming unglued. New York WNBC's anchor Sue Simmons, who I have watched since puberty and always seen as a paragon of professionalism, screamed "What the fuck are you doing?" in an on-air promo. FOX News...

Sorry, peeps, in lieu of the colorful erotica slash fiction between the contestants of Top Chef and the crew of Battlestar Galatica I was going to write, today I am pursuing the road less traveled and writing about a topic which has never been covered before in the history of...

After one term of George Bush, everyone was saying there was no way he could win a second term. They said anyone could beat this asshole, so Democrats put that theory to the test when they picked John Kerry to run against him. And then, like Americans were those abused...

The perfect ticket: President Barack Obama Vice President John Edwards Secretary of Defense Hillary Clinton (Don't men know how much meaner women can be than men, and more clever about it, too?) Other good tickets would be Prince front row private box...oh, or Keith Olbermann as president...

So, there's racism. And this is "news"... why? Have you been outside lately? Or are we all still under the blissfully terrifying myst of ignorant complacency which makes Stephen King creations look like Care Bears? Yup, there's racism. Has been for a while. Let's deal with it...

"Bottled or tap?" is the first thing we're asked in restaurants, which always irritates me. The bottled water option seemed to coincide with the "paper or plastic" choice at the supermarket, with both questions making a statement about our values. Tap = cheap just as plastic = not ecologically aware. To...
