Jon Stewart Discovers Chatroulette (VIDEO)
…and hilarity ensues.
I don’t agree with Stewart’s political views, but when he’s funny, he’s really funny. Check out this latest video of his recent discovery of Chatroulette.
I didn’t know Brian Williams had that good a sense of humor! I needed this laugh today.
Homeland Security ‘Big Sis’ Announces ‘Einstein’ Cyber Security Shield (VIDEO)
From the ZDNet blog today:
At the RSA Conference in San Francisco, U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano discusses three efforts underway to ensure the security of the nation’s cyberinfrastructure. This includes the development of National Cybersecurity Incident Response Plan, which will facilitate a coordinated response to cyberthreats from the federal government, local city and state governments, as well as the private sector.
According to the Wall Street Journal piece:
NSA’s role is a careful balance because of the political battles that ensued over the agency’s role in domestic surveillance in the George W. Bush administration. Declassifying details of the NSA’s role, in a program initially developed during the Bush administration and continued in the Obama administration, will likely ignite new debates over privacy.
The White House’s new cyber-security chief, Howard Schmidt, announced the move to declassify the program in a speech at the RSA conference in San Francisco–his first major public address since assuming the post in January. He said addressing potential privacy concerns was one of the ten initial steps he planned to take. “We’re really paying attention, and we get it,” he said.
Hmmm…an over-reaching government trying to control the auto industry, financial and insurance industries, healthcare, education, the environment, and damn near anyone else, what in the world could POSSIBLY go wrong?

No further explanation is needed. Ed is a demented freak on MSNBC who is hooked into the Progressive movement hook, line & sinker.

Ed, I have attended several Tea Parties both locally and in D.C. on September 12, 2009, and I can tell you that you, sir, are a douchebag. You’re in the minority, and I hope your delusion continues.
Nah-nah-nah-nah, Nah-nah-nah-nah, Hey, hey, hey, Goodbye…

Sarah Had a Great Night on the Tonight Show (VIDEOs)
Last night, Sarah Palin appeared on Jay’s 2nd night back into the Tonight Show foray, and she was pleasantly confident and comfrortable. Heck, she even did a standup comedy routine. Check out both clips here:
I think she did fantastic, don’t you? The more she appears on TV, the more comfortable she becomes…and that’s a GOOD thing. She needs to get comfy because she’s going to be an important figure for a long time to come – politics or not.
The Brecht Forum: ‘Let’s Destroy the United States of America!’ (VIDEO)
Wow… just wow. Glenn introduced us to a fabulous new ’social’ group today. They are all members of The Brecht Forum. Who are they you ask? The Brecht Forum website offers several neat-o commie options, touting the New York Marxist School. Amazing. Simply. Amazing. On their “About Us” page? Here’s the ‘fun’ stuff:
The BRECHT FORUM is a place for people who are working for social justice, equality and a new culture that puts human needs first. Through its programs and events, the Brecht Forum brings people together across social and cultural boundaries and artistic and academic disciplines to promote critical analysis, creative thinking, collaborative projects and networking in an independent community-level environment.
Jed Brandt, apparently a member of this communist group, goes on to tell us how he really feels about Capitalism and the United States of America.
Oh yeah… they’re going to TAKE our insurance companies, TAKE all the farms, and they will also SHUT DOWN the military apparatus of this country! (That last one will be real fun to watch. EPIC. FAIL.)
And about that New York Marxist School?
When people attempt to resolve the problems that plague everyday life and even threaten survival on this planet, from poverty, disease, discrimination and alienation to war, economic crisis and environmental devastation, they come face to face with difficult questions: Can society be changed significantly for the better? What kind of changes would be needed? and, Who could bring about such changes?
Questions like these are what motivated Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels to develop a method for studying the dynamics of change in societies.
In 1975, a group of civil rights, community, labor, and student activists came together to found the Brecht Forum’s New York Marxist School. They saw the study of marxism as central, not as a dogma but as a living current of thought and as a vital tool for understanding capitalist society. They believed that the study of our reality, an informed public, clear-headed reflection on our actions, and an open, and inclusive space for the exchange of experience and discussion and debate of ideas are all essential to the kind of movement we need if we want to create a better world..
Their collective vision combined with their commitment to the struggle for social transformation led them to develop a vital, non-sectarian institution that could offer serious study and discussion of social and political issues in a non-academic, community-level setting.
And according to their YouTube Channel:
The BRECHT FORUM is a place for people who are working for social justice, equality and a new culture that puts human needs first. Through its programs and events, the Brecht Forum brings people together across social and cultural boundaries and artistic and academic disciplines to promote critical analysis, creative thinking, collaborative projects and networking in an independent community-level environment.
Sounds like a SUPER fun group of folks to hang around with, doesn’t it? I’m going to have to do some more digging into this Jed Brandt character. Stay tuned, folks.
