Green Party initiative could put an end to water fluoridation in Canada

2010-09-08T23:30:00.000-07:00

Finally SOMEONE is stopping the poisoning of MILLIONS. Flouride is a toxic chemical. Buy NON-flouride toothpaste at Trader Joes or other health food stores (gee I wonder why they make a non-flouride toothpaste...). Google the word flouride and read all about it. Read this article. And don't drink the water...

A Kind-of End To a Fake War

2010-08-31T17:24:00.000-07:00

It's not really funny, but it looks like President Obama announced today that the war in Iraq is over and there is no longer any combat. But thousands of troops remain... even though... the sort of war (it was never really a war - more of a conflict where we conducted riot control)... is over.

So is it a real ending or just sorta kinda?

Delphine Eatery & Bar in Hollywood Rocks!

2010-08-30T15:42:00.000-07:00

We dined at Delphine last Thursday night. This French brasserie at the W Hollywood was - in a word - AWESOME! Our waitress, Nora W, was so great! The atmosphere is modern chic with a throwback to old Hollywood.

We started with a couple of drinks. Really really good Mojitos! Also, we enjoyed a half dozen oysters (yum!). They offer east or west coast - we chose the east (props to Massachusetts)!

I had the broiled lobster, my partner had the lamb stew. Outrageously good. We shared a side of Mac and Cheese that was killer. And finished with a chocolate raspberry truffle that was out of this world.

Love the design of the restaurant. The outdoor patio and bar is fantastic. Little touches like seaweed garnish with the east coast oysters was definitely noted. Delphine is located right next to the W Hollywood and directly across the street from the Pantages Theatre. Address is 6250 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood, CA 90028. Definitely call ahead for reservations 323-798-1355

Delphine gets a perfect score – loved it! Next up - we are going to try Delphine's Raw Bar Monday - where east coast oysters, shrimp, clams, and mussels are only $1 each (that's right - only a buck) from 5-10:30 p.m. with drink specials from 5-7 p.m.

CNN's Rick Sanchez Calls Obama

2010-08-30T14:46:00.000-07:00

CNN anchor, today, called Barack Obama "the cotton-pickin' president". All hell broke loose immediately in this age of instant global response on Twitter, Facebook, etc.

Was it a slip-of-the-tongue? Probably. But these days, when you anchor a news program seen all over the world you CANNOT have "slip-ups" like this. Remember, "cotton picking" has always been a widely known euphemism against blacks, referring back to the days when slaves picked cotton.

Sanchez quickly apologized. Feel like Dr. Laura much, Rick?

Watch as he awkwardly tries to explain himself out of this one...

Old People The Most Against Tanning Tax

2010-08-30T14:09:00.000-07:00

Ironic that in a recent 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair poll the strongest resistance to a new tanning tax comes from seniors. Remember this leathery senior?

The federal tanning tax actually went into effect July 1, 2010.

Paris Hilton Busted in Vegas for Cocaine

2010-08-28T10:38:00.000-07:00

According to CNN:

Paris Hilton was released from a Las Vegas, Nevada, jail Saturday morning after being arrested late the night before on suspicion of cocaine possession, police said Saturday. The hotel heiress was riding in a black Cadillac Escalade which was pulled over in front of the Wynn Hotel on the Vegas strip at about 11:30 p.m. after police detected the smell of marijuana coming from the SUV, Lt. Wayne Holman told CNN.
The driver, who police did not identify, was arrested for driving under the influence, he said.
Hilton was taken to the Clark County jail. She was released after authorities determined she was not a flight risk, Holman said.

Last month, Hilton was briefly detained in South Africa for allegedly smoking marijuana at the World Cup. Her publicist called the July 2 incident "a complete misunderstanding," and the case was dropped.

GayLA says... Paris, you're so 1980s.

Hater Alert! Hater Alert! Bible Thumpers Praying For Gays

2010-08-23T20:15:00.000-07:00

Here is a revolting example of holier-than-thou bible thumpers having nothing to do but harass gay people - blaming them for all the evil in the world. This lame group of weaklings came out to pray in front of a gay couple's home in Leslieville, Toronto up in Canada. The awesome news is that all the neighbors came out and chased the God-fearing idiots out of the neighborhood.

"We have an authority to preach the gospel," claims one worshipper in a video clip (above) captured by nearby resident Geoffrey Skelding. "We've been doing this seven years."

These holy-rollers were from the commissary at Highfield Road Gospel Hall.The guy who shot the video and posted it on You Tube writes:

"This is a group from a church at the end of my street. Apparently they have been grouping in front of a couple's house and reading their bible loudly for the past 7 years. They may have also driven another couple from the area as well by doing the same thing. Tonight most of our neighbors came out and were successful in getting them to leave. The people who go to that church don't even live in our area! Police came by shortly thereafter."

Watch this video. If you have a weak stomach for the lowest form of life... have a barf bag handy. Because these folks will make you want to vomit. Ironically, it's these religious freaks who spread the most hatred one can find out there.

New Los Angeles High School Costs $578 Million - Is It Worth It?

2010-08-23T10:02:00.000-07:00

The most expensive public school in U.S. history is about to open it's doors in Los Angeles. The new Robert F. Kennedy Community School is causing quite a stir. It will combine grades K-12.

AP reports one member of the California Board of Education saying: "New buildings are nice, but when they're run by the same people who've given us a 50 percent dropout rate, they're a big waste of taxpayer money."

It's pretty over the top. But it will give a lot of laid-off teachers their job back. "Nationwide, dozens of schools have surpassed $100 million with amenities including atriums, orchestra-pit auditoriums, food courts, even bamboo nooks."

What do you think? I'm kinda digging the thought of a food court.

Meg Whitman Will Support Ban on Gay Marriage If Elected Governor

2010-08-22T11:19:00.000-07:00

Republican Meg Whitman says she'll support California's Proposition 8 ban on gay marriages if she's elected governor.

The proposition was approved by California voters in November 2008 and requires that all marriages in the state be between opposite-sex couples. A district court has ruled the law unconstitutional, and an appeals court is now examining its validity.

According to the Sacramento Bee, Whitman said on Friday: "The issue right now is, as I understand it, is 'Will Proposition 8 have the appropriate support to actually make an appeal to the Circuit Court of Appeals?'
"And I think the governor, the attorney general today has to defend the constitution and has to enable the judicial process to go along and has to enable an appeal to go through," she continued. "So if I was governor, I would give that ruling standing to be able to appeal to the circuit court."

Whitman is running against current Democratic Attorney General Jerry Brown to succeed Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Dr. Laura AND Sarah Palin Just Don't Get It

2010-08-21T10:14:00.000-07:00

Dr. Laura thinks it's okay to use the "N" word, as long as black men are using it on HBO or in rap songs. She claims if that's acceptable that they use it, she can use it. Well, it is acceptable when they use it. The fake doctor just doesn't get it.

As a gay man, I can tell you that me and my friends call each other all sorts of things - "Hey, girl." Or maybe "Where do you fags want to go after this?" Or we refer to one of our friends as "She". This is out of affection and, strangely enough, we are playing with the words that have been used to hurt us for years. But I can tell you that if I am in a room full of straight men and one of them calls me a "Fag" or a "Girl" it will not only piss me off - there will be a huge problem.

So you see, it's the same thing when you use the "N" word. African Americans can use the word in jest or just as an affectionate way to kid with each other. But a white guy can't walk around using it. The same thing goes for comedians. A black comedian can make jokes about people of color. But I challenge a white comedian to do a Chris Rock routine. He will not only bomb, all hell will break loose.

Jewish people can make fun of themselves, but no one will be laughing if an Asian guy starts making jokes about Jews.

So fake Dr. Laura, if you're reading this... NO you cannot call gay people "fags" or "girl". NO you can't use the "N" word. I believe, however, you are Jewish... so have at it.
