TV Post - The Walking Dead: It's not Carl's fault

Ok, maybe it is Carl's fault for being a complete and utter moron.  If he hadn't stolen Daryl's gun, and wandered off into the woods and woken a walker that followed him back and killed a cow and then killed Dale, then maybe Dale would still be alive...but come on, who's fault is it really?  Lori and Rick should be responsible for their idiot child who wanders off in a zombie infested world on his own with no repercussions.  At the very least someone should have said "Carl, where the hell have you been?  Why are your pants so muddy?  Don't you know it's dangerous out there?" but no, everyone acts like it's totally normal for the small child to be unaccounted  for hours at a time.  I don't know if it's shitty parenting/survival tactics, or just lazy writing (leaning on the latter) but this has got to stop.

The only person responsible for Dale's death is Dale for wandering off on a dark and misty night through the fields.  That's a nono.  If you want to patrol the grounds, do it in a group.  If you want to get away from the group to blow off some steam...don't.  There are ZOMBIES out there!  Frankly, I'm glad to see Dale get killed because this episode he was really getting on my nerves.  Yes, it would be great to latch onto our humanity and have a fully functioning judicial code in a post-apocalyptic-zombie world...but it's a god damn post-apocalyptic-zombie world!  The important thing is to survive.  Everything else comes second.

Scary Shit

While I hate to help spread anything Glenn Beck has ever said, the conversation, and I use the word conversation loosely, he has with an intelligent and thoughtful caller from Massachusetts who challenged his assertions about health care outlines everything that's wrong with people like him.

California Wildfires

STOP LIVING IN FIRE PRONE AREAS!

Watching all the news coverage of the efforts by the bankrupt state of California battling wild fires only leads me to one conclusion.  People should not be living in those mountainous regions that are prone to wild fires.  If they do choose to live there they should be responsible for footing any and all bills related to fighting the fire and should not be elligible for any federal disaster money.  If I build my home on a sandbar and the tide comes in I shouldn't get federal money to rebuild my home on that sandbar.

Bill Kristol

First off, thanks to desperado for mentioning this sound byte of Bill Kristol's on foxnews. It's stupid comments like these from stupid people like Bill Kristol that really requires us to ask "what the hell are pundits on news shows for?" As has been pointed out by so many people I couldn't even begin to count, Bill Kristol has been wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong about almost everything having to do with Iraq and the Middle East. Why then, are we still listening? Why, then is he still given face time to spew his nonsense?



I'm glad that Jon Stewart had the balls to take him to task on some of the ridiculous things he's said in the past but clearly that isn't enough. FoxNews - stop paying him for his opinions and his hypotheses as they are absolute bullshit.
