Dina Eastwood: America's Newest Bottom Feeder!!

While channel flicking on satellite, last night, I came across something that really disturbed me.The E! channel, which is the premiere bottom feeding channel itself, must have really gone down to the bowles of hell and dug up the corpse of Dina Eastwood's career. Yes, that Dina Eastwood!! The wife of iconic legendary actor, Clint Eastood. The man who made spagetti westerns, war movies and boxing movies an art form. The two time Oscar winner himself! Upon watching his wife on screen, dealing with teenage daughter issues and helping an underground band get started, I thought to myself, is this really want Clint agreed to? Does he really support this? After watching a couple of scenes, that's all I could stomach. I had truly found my inspirationm for a new blog after a 6 month hiatus. Thank you, Dina!! Is this woman really that starved for affection that her 100 year old husband gets. Is she jealous of the fame and fortune and just felt the need to throw herself out there like some sort of media whore? From what I've read about her, she did at one time have a short lived television career. Yeah, short lived!! When you married your grandfather, honey, all that ended. You and he have a beautiful daughter and should be blessed about that. However seeing ole Clint walk on stage and get Oscar after Oscar must have awakened something in that pea brain of yours to revamp your career and what better way to revamp your career than another endless stupid mind rotting  reality show. Who advised you to take such a draing move: Kris Jenner. Is she your PR person. I think the two of you are a bottom feeding match made in heaven. When Clint finally kicks the bucket and Bruce dumps Kris fat ass, the two of you can move to Hawaii and hopefully fall into a volcano.

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year....NOT!!

Oh, wow! Is it that time of year again? I knew it had to be when I was riding the bus, during Veteran's Day weekend, and the driver had the radio station on and all it played was Christmas songs 24/7. Oy-vay!! I have to be honest. I have never truly liked Christmas!! Not since I was 13years old. Yes, 30 years ago!!
     I have always found it very very commercialized. Not meaning to sound like a tired cliche or a Scrooge, but it is. From the bombardment of commercials on t.v. to the heavy saturation of Christmas music playing on the radio, Christmas just rots your brain with its heavy pounding in your head. You can't escape it. Then to make matters worse, this whole Black Friday explosion that really opens the floodgate into the abyss of December madness. Some stores are offering to stay open at 12am for shoppers to be the first to take advantage of the true official shopping day. That's fine and dandy and a very smart, if not financially crafty, idea. However, is the average shopper really willing to risk his or her  safety to be out at 12am? I would be afraid to step out that late knowing that I would or could be robbed or possibly car jacked at that hour.  I know most Americans normally wouldn't dare be out that late. I guess when you throw a late night holiday bargain  in their faces, they'd shop the through the Amazon jungles in they had too.
     Anyway, I move on and say that I am not a true fan of the Holiday season due to the fact that most people forget the true meaning. It is the birth of Jesus Christ! Is it not?!We have forgotten that. We have replaced the true meaning with a sales paper and a 12am shopping frenzy. Shame on us, the consumers!! Let's get back to what Christmas is really about, getting together with family, being thankful for what we have, being there for our fellow man and remembering the spiritual being above. Whatever your beliefs are, believe that a discounted special on a cheap department store item is not the true meaning of Christmas. Trust me on that!!

Kim Kardashian Krazy Khoas!!

Excuse me while I wipe a tear from my eye as another marriage falls apart? The marriage of Kim Kardasian and Kris Humphries has left me totally devastated and shaken up. The fact that these two media parasites couldn't make a marriage work past 72 hours must really rock the foundation of traditional civil union. Will marriage every be sacred again? Will America every wake up to this pathetic excuse for a celebrity?
First off, I have to tell you that PEOPLE magazine should be stripped of any type of  journalism credibility because they devoted a cover story to this train wreck back in August and don't even get me started on the E! channel. Where did that channel go wrong? When Ryan Seacrest decided to make a deal with Satan and put these shallow no-nothings on the air 24/7. Shame on you E! I can't really blame the Kardasians, or Kim for that matter. They are media opportunists who saw a window and slithered through it. However, we have been exposed to that big butt opportunist and her family for far too long. I am still in shock that her wedding netted a reported $17.5 million in profits. $17.5 for a 72 hour mistake?!! That money could have been used in many of the charities and foundations in need of assistant during these tough economic times. People are protesting in New York City for jobs, money and equality and the media rewards a quickie marriage with that kind of money? New Yorkers should be protesting that!! New Yorkers should really be protesting PEOPLE magazine and the E! channel for showing how low they would go for a cover story or television program. Shame on both of them! Shame on Kim for being nothing more than a big butt materialistic air head. Shame on Humphries for even getting himself caught up in the hype. Shame on her mother, Kris, for being the poorest excuse of a manager and mother!! Shame on us for continuing to give these bottom feeders even the time of day!! Ban the Kardashians from your mind and maybe, hopefully, they will go away! Maybe the $17.5 she stole should be enough for her to get lost!!

X Factor / Ex-Factor!!

     Have you been watching that "American Idol" ripoff/ train wreck, "X Factor"? It's got Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, L.A. Reid, and Pussycat Doll, Nicole Scherzinger. It is so much like American Idol, with the exception that people over 30 can compete and it's not Coke, but Pepsi that sponsores it. They also have a group category which Idol never had. Both shows started as British creations, which is really becoming a trend lately. Stealing from them to Americanize here. "All In The Family", "Sanford and Son", and "Three's Company" being the rare excellent exceptions. My main gripe that I have with the show is not so much the judges, who are beyond judgeing on musical talent. Paula's singing style has always been nasally and she's judging someone on their pitch?! L.A. Reid was once the head of LaFace, who's major artists such as TLC and Toni Braxton, had to file bankruptcy at one time. Nicole was a member of a group called Pussycats Dolls who were basically pin up barbie dolls with mediorce singing voices and talent to match. The only one with no real singing or musical aspirations is Simon. I like Simon. At least with him you get what you get, an arrogant snobby asshole!! Nothing more, nothing less!
          My major gripe is the fact that contestant come on that show and others, hoping that they are the one and that they will be picked amonst the 1000s that the show sees and hears. The prize for this show is a 5 million dollar contract. Pretty impressive. However, the show puts the contests through the ringer to get that prize. First Hollywood week or Boot Camp. Then they weed those out in the second and third week of try outs, still weeding it down from 1000s to 100s to 50 to 30 to 16 to finally the magic number: 12. This show basically steals American Idol's platform. The main concern is that these poor hopefuls have to go through weeks and weeks and weeks of either being cut out or having to prove themselves each week as to no be cut out. I understand you have to prove yourself in order to make it in the buisiness. However, you see the joy in thier faces when they have made it through, only weeks later to be disappointed when they don't take that next step. My God: Welcome to show biz!! Anyway, I feel really bad for those who want that dream so badly. They want that chance to let the world hear them sing and reach that plateau of fame and fortune. However, week after agonizing week after grueling week, you are never safe. You are always one step from out the door. You can never relax. Those future singing stars watching at home should really take stock of that. Do you really want it that badly that week after week, you rely on four people to tell you whether you're good enough or not? Also, once you finally make it to that final journey and succeed on the show, is fame and fortune really awaiting you? My compassion goes out to those under 16 and over 30. Either this something they really want or this is all they have left. That is sad!! It's even sadder when their dreams are dashed by an early rejection. Is fame really all the important to you that you would sell your soul on national television just for the devil to rip it out a few weeks later with a bad audition?

Broken Promises of 2012!!

Next year is an election year and of course, all the politicians are in full swing promising what they'll do differentlyfor voters. Whether it the economy, immigration, Medicare, Social Security, building bridges or helping create job, politicians running for president cannot make those promises! CANNOT!! It is up to Congress to make those changes. The president has no real power to change anything and voters should know that. The House of Representatives and the Senate make all those decisions and the President has to beg them to help him. Because they control the money. Most times, Congress will fight a President on what promises he or she puts forth. Especially if you are a Democratic facing a Republican Congress and vice verse. Presidential hopeful need to be more honest with voters and tell them that he or she will do what Congress will allow.

Plan 999 or Plan 666?

Herman Cain, front runner for the Republican party, could very well be the most dangerous man in politics today. His 999 plan is truly a horror story unfolded. While watching MSNBC's "Lawrence O'Donnell Show", Mr. O'Donnell gave veiwers a sneak peak at Mr. Cain's 999 plan. Mr. Cain's plan outlines a 9% tax increase in three categories:  a 9 percent income tax, a 9 percent business transactions tax and a 9 percent federal sales tax. Which is a bad idea for the poor and working class. Currently poor and working class pay 7% in taxes while their employers match that. Then it gets worse! Mr. Cain wants to do away with Medicare and Social Security and have the state, city or church foot the bill. Meaning for those who depend on those benefits  would have to rely on the state, which is underfunded; the city, which is also underfunded and your local church. His solution to anyone on social security is to just go to your local church every month and ask for a handout. Excuse me?! Yeah, right!!He also suggests that anyone on welfare should stop receiving benefits and just go door to door asking for help. Is he serious?! I was completely riveted to my seat listening and reading excerpts from Cain's plan. It was truly a frightening segment. While I am all for welfare reform and putting money back into the state, Mr. Cain's  plan is a truly harmful one. Also, upon furthered investigation I found out that the former CEO of Godfather's Pizza has no real political background. Yet he is leading in the polls and is the Republican front runner. Is this the best they can come up with? To me, I feel that this basically nothing more than a desperate plea of "Hey, Democrats, you have your black man and now we have one too" kind of mentality. It's sick and wrong! Sadly, the Republican really have no one to challenge the current president. However, Mr. Cain is really not a good political match. While I admire his accomplishments as a successful black entrepreneur, I cannot support or stand by him in a political field. He would truly turn America into a third world country!!
