Carrie Prejean Kyle Boller Pregnant

Carrie Prejean and husband Kyle Boller are expecting their first child in May 2011. Prejean, 23, and Boller, quarterback for the Oakland Raiders, were married in July 2010. Prejean hit the world stage in a bigger way than expected when Perez Hilton, a gay judge for the Miss USA 2009 pageant, scuttled Prejean's chances for winning the Miss USA title when he asked Prejean's pageant question, and didn't like the answer:  "Do you believe every U.S. State should legalize same-sex marriage?" See the video below.

Her answer:

Well I think it's great that Americans are able to choose one way or the other. We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage. And, you know what, in my country, in my family, I think that, I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman, no offense to anybody out there. But that’s how I was raised and I believe that it should be between a man and a woman.

What we learned from Carrie's time on the Miss USA stage is that contestants representing this country must not express opinions favoring traditional marriage or faith.

Rand Paul Eliot Spitzer: Spitzer Pushes Pay Cut for Medicare Doctors

Client No. 9, also known as Eliot Spitzer, interviewed Kentucky's new Senator-elect, Rand Paul. Paul is a medical doctor and has said physicians pay for treatment of Medicare patients should not be cut unless all federal payrolls are cut. Spitzer thought he had Paul on the end of his pitchfork after showing the trillions spent on medicare, medicaid and social security.  See the video below.

Rand Paul

Paul pointed out that further cuts in physician's pay would be on top of the already-implemented 50% cut. Spitzer wasn't interested and offered no follow-up. Then he tried to broadside Paul by asking what his income was as a physician treating predominately Medicare patients. Paul didn't skip a beat, and suggested if Spitzer wanted to talk about Rand's past, perhaps they might also talk about Spitzer's own (which undoubtedly would include the disgraced Governor of New York State being outed as "Client No. 9" in a prositution scandal which brought his resignation as governor).

Rand Paul will be a conservative voice to be reckoned with when he hits the Senate. It's a good thing.
See how successful Spitzer's recent gig is here. Read additional commentary on this story at FireAndreaMitchell - Stop The Leftist Propaganda Machine

Frank Sinatra Slit His Wrist Over Ava Gardner: Who Knew?

Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner were willing participants in a wholly volatile one year marriage with infidelities on both side. Sinatra was hopelessly in love with the torrid Ava Gardner, and she with him. The problem was, it wasn't really about "being in love." It was about dominance. When Gardner left him, Sinatra slit one wrist, went to the hospital thinking she would come to him. She didn't. It was over. Who knew that Sinatra slit his wrist? I certainly did not. And who knew Sinatra's mother "beat him?" Tst, tsk. Read more at the DailyMail.

Saturday Rule 5 on Friday: Good Witch Bad Witch Round-Up

I had such fun with my first Saturday Rule 5 last week, I'm going for my second. This is Saturday Rule 5 on Friday: Good Witch - Bad Witch Round-up. Can you guess the identity of the Bad Witch? See a very entertaining look into witchcraft in the video below.

Elizabeth Montgomery - Good Witch

If you are not familiar with Rule 5 posts, R.S. McCain at The Other McCain came up with 5 rules to make a blog successful. Rule 5 specifically addresses the fact that everybody loves a pretty girl, all politics all the time gets boring after awhile, sex sells, and feminism sucks.

I will be linking other Rule 5 posts here as soon as they pop on my radar. A word of caution: my Rule 5 is...well, not as overtly sensual as some you may see, should you click some other Rule 5 link. What's that? Oh...you ARE looking for "overt sensuality," then run over to Bob's posts at The Camp of the Saints and keep checking back for links to more.

Keith Ablow: Americans in Denial About Obama

Dr. Keith Ablow says Americans are in Denial about Barack Obama. "The mind and the soul are fitted with shock absorbers triggered only by the biggest bumps in the road." Well America, if we haven't had a bump in the road the size of the Grand Canyon, we've at least plunged into a sink hole the size of Guatemala's world record holder.

Guatamala Bump in the Road

Cutting to the chase, it IS about race. Many cannot bear to believe that a Black man could so severely destruct the American dream. Well, Obama the Black Man has done that, and his agenda-engine is still speeding down the track. American Democrats must begin to recognize the numerous brilliant Blacks who just happen to be conservative...not necessarily Republican, but conservative with a great love for this Nation and a profound knowledge of what made America great: economists Dr. Thomas Sowell, Dr. Walter Williams, and Herman Cain a successful business man with vast experience in creating profitable businesses nationwide, to mention a few Liberals could not keep out of the public eye.

 

Ablow, a psychiatrist, best-selling author and contributor at Fox News notes what you and I have known before The Time of Obama began:

...the Obamas are profoundly ambivalent about whether America and Americans have historically been a force for good or ill in the world. This is why the president has repeatedly apologized for America’s behavior, in a way that not only signals other nations that our leader is at best uncertain about our moral character, but may plant self-doubt about our decency in own population.

It is why the president would remain in a church where the pastor has been quoted as saying, “God damn, America!” and would bring his children to that church to listen and learn.

Whether Black, White, Hispanic or Asian, Americans want a president who values Liberty above his own life, and will do whatever is necessary to guard and defend our Constitution, rather than believing it to be a document with "deep flaws".  It is not about the color of skin. It IS about the vision for an even greater American through limited government practicing fiscal accountability and fostering an environment for personable responsibility. Community organizers are in direct opposition of those ideals.

Ablow is right. Many who voted for Obama - those who still want a share of his stash, voted for him because they believed he would right the wrongs of racism. Instead, he has made it painfully obvious that the Blacks still following him are the racists. In the name of Social Justice, Obama has brought an extreme racist to the Department of Justice, allowing the Nation to descend to a lawlessness never thought possible in this country - and his followers have cheered that their man is "putting it to the Whites."

Flash forward to today, those Obama voters thinking their White-guilt would slide would slide from their shoulders if they only cast a vote for him, find being Black, and considered eloquent, articulate and "clean," - a Harvard graduate,  who is laughingly considered an expert on the U.S. Constitution, realize that his background and belief in Socialism, Marxism and Communism really does matter. Ablow ends with:

If we were deprived of denial, if we were willing to really listen and really be shocked, if we were willing to be wrong and wronged, we would have to admit that we elected a man to lead our country who just doesn't express much lover for it - or us.

Still so much to be said...

Joy Behar on Sharron Angle: Moron, Evil, Stupid and Going to Hell Video

The View's Barbara Walters obviously didn't make much of an impression on Joy and Whoopie when they protested Bill O'Reilly and walked off the stage under Walter's seemingly disapproving eye (wink wink). Watch as Joy Behar calls Republican Senate candidate Sharron Angle a moron, stupid, evil, a beo-itch and says she's going to hell.

How NPR Spends Our Money on Lady GaGa Interpretations by Nina Totenberg

Want to see NPR's Nina Totenberg and Robert Siegel "interpret" former stripper Lady GaGa? Didn't think so. Nevertheless, you need to know that taxpayers funded this embarrassing video.

Lady GaGa in Nude Leotard?

Lady GaGa comes from a wealthy Italian family, but ran away early on and started stripping to be able to support herself. Then she started writing songs for artists like Britney Spears and the Pussycat Dolls when she decided to take a piece of the pie by herself. 

Cut taxpayer funding to NPR at YouCut. It's very easy. Takes only one minute. To learn more about YouCut go here.

My First Rule 5 Saturday

Rule 5 posts have to do with pretty girls or beautiful women - whichever you prefer. RS McCain says I will undoubtedly get a million hits if I join Rule 5'ers, mix it up a little bit with Rules 1, 2, 3, and 4, because only a few can handle all politics, all the time. See a video below.

I've pestered my guy blogging friends who eagerly await the day for their Rule 5 posts. I've whined that they had an unfair advantage. The whining was not productive.

From The Other McCain, this is how Stacy McCain explains mixing "loveliness" with politics:

Everybody loves a pretty girl -- It's not just guys who enjoy staring at pictures of hotties. If you've ever picked up Cosmo or Glamour, you realize that chicks enjoy looking at pretty girls, too. Maybe it's the vicious catty she-thinks-she's-all-that factor, or theschadenfreude of watching a human trainwreck like Britney Spears, but no one can argue that celebrity babes generate traffic. 

Then I noticed that Opus_6 at American Perspective became a Rule 5'er on Saturdays. I've studied her posts to determine just how a I might move into the Rule 5 territory. You can see a few of hers here,  here and here. The last one definitely has me thinking I can do this.

Then I compared her posts to the most energetic Rule 5 poster, outside of McCain, that I know, and that would be Bob Belvedere at The Camp of the Saints. See a few of his here, here and here. I recognized all of the women in Opie's posts. I haven't a clue who most are at Belvedere's place.

I've eliminated most of today's beautiful women because I can't stomach their politics. Maybe I'll get over it. Having said that, if you know Natalie Wood's political leanings, don't tell me.

So here's my first Rule 5 post. Let me know what you think.

David Zucker's "Call Me Senator - I'ts Just a Thing"

New video sent by email from someone "near and dear" to my heart. David Zucker is a conservative Hollywood producer and director, morphed from Liberal Democrat. His movies include Airplane, The Naked Gun, An American Carol and Scary Movie 3 and 4. Take a look at what he has done with Senator Barbara Boxer's infamous dress down of a Brigadier General. Zucker's video is first, and the real incident second.

David Zucker

Zucker "came out" about his move to conservatism in 2006 because he sees threats to both the U.S. and Israel "mounting.

"You have people like Michael Moore going into foreign countries saying Americans are the stupidest people in the world," Zucker said. "I want to tell the real America story, that America is a force for good."

That was then. Note that for two years now, Barack Obama has done the same.

"I still can't believe I'm a Republican," Zucker said. "There are just certain things ingrained in our Jewish roots. Our fathers voted for Roosevelt, and we voted for JFK, [Hubert] Humphrey and Clinton. But the Democratic Party has changed."

Viewed first at Proof Positive.

Angela Dorian, Victoria Vetri or Victoria Rathgeb: Playmate of Year Attempted Murder Charges

Former Playboy Playmate of the Year 1968, Angela Doria, has been charged with attempted murder of her boyfriend/husband. Her real name is Victoria Vetri or Victoria Rathgeb. She is held under $1 million bail.

Angela Dorian/Victoria Vetri/Victoria Rathgeb

Mail Online says the man she shot is her boyfriend. The L.A. Times says the man is her husband of 20 years. Identified as Bruce Rathgeb is in grave condition at an Los Angeles hospital, but is expected to survive at least one shot to the chest at close range. Vetri is 66 years old.

TMZ reports that when police arrived at her home, she told them her "boyfriend" was shot by a drug dealer. The photo above is from her appearance in When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth.

Burt Reynolds Loni Anderson: Burt and Loni Reuniting

A new TV show will star formerly married, now 16 years divorced, Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson.

Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson 1991

In a replay of real life, the once-feuding couple will play bickering seniors living in a retirement home - and the show will be scripted by famed All in the Familycreator Norman Lear, The ENQUIRER learned exclusively.

Both Burt. 74 and  Loni, 65,  are veterans of sitcom hits. 

Loni was the busty blonde hottie of WKRP in Cincinnati. And Burt made Evening Shade a hit.

During the Burt and Loni marriage, they adopted a son, Quinton Anderson Reynolds, who would be about 22 years old now. It appears that Burt has not remarried after his divorce from Anderson. Loni married Bob Flick, a founding member of The Brother Four folk band, in May 2008.

Loni Anderson Age 62 and Age 63

There are reports that Reynolds had quintuple bypass surgery in March of this year.  Just dreadful that the new show will be filmed in a "retirement home." No word yet on which network will air the episodes. Source for news of the upcoming show: National Enquirer

Burt Reynolds in 2010?

But, that's not all the Enquirer has to say about this pair. In an August 2010 article. Apparently Reynolds had to enter "alcohol and pain pill rehab in 2009 after collapsing at his home in Hobe Sound, FL. Loni said he owned her $400,000 in back child support. She said she felt sorry for him, and did not want to tag him a "deadbeat dad."

His child support was set at $4,000 a month, which Anderson said was only paid sporadically, although he made more than 20 movies since their divorce. So now we get the story. Loni would not demean the man she hopes to have a TV hit with, and perhaps a part of his pay check will go to Anderson. See the Enquirer article.

Rodney King Cynthia Kelley: Rodney King Marries Juror Cynthia Kelley

Rodney King, the beating victim of LA police in 1991 is marrying Cynthia Kelley, Juror No. 5...one of the women serving on the jury which awarded him $3.8 million.

Rodney King and Cynthia Kelley

 

Apparently, King called Kelley "on a whim" four months ago. They met previously the day after the trial ended in 1994 and shared a pizza, but both were already married to someone else.

 RadarOnline broke this story and are quoting Kelley saying the "first date" was at that pizzeria, even though they were each married. That relationship did not end until King participated in a May 2008 Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.

Kelley was the only Black juror in the beating trial that eventually acquitted the White police officers. She says the White jurors wanted to award King only $100,000.

"During deliberations, the other jurors said, 'Let's just award him $100,000, you know he's just gonna blow it anyway'," Kelley said.

"It was a blessing that I was even there, the other jurors didn't want to give him anything."

How does one person on a jury bounce the compensation from $100,000 to $3.8 million?

Video of the police attack on King showed them repeatedly hitting King with batons. After the officers were acquitted, riots raged through the area. It took the U.S. Marines, the U.S. Army and the National Guard to restore peace. Fifty-three died with more than 2,000 reported injuries.

In November 1989, about two years before the police beating, King robbed a store in Monterey Park, California and used an iron bar to beat the store owner. King was sentenced to two years in prison, but received early parole. By March 1991, he led the led the police on the infamous high-speed car-chase that resulted in the beating.

King's blood alcohol level was more than twice what California law allows, and during the chase, his speed reached 117 miles per hour. After release from the hospital for a broken ankle, a fractured facial bone and bruises and lacerations, King filed a claim with the City alleging eleven skull fractures, permanent brain damage, broken teeth and bones, kidney damage and shock and trauma.

After the riots, King went on television and asked, "can't we all just get along? The store owner he beat probably beat him to that question, but received no face time on television.

King was arrested in 1995 for hitting his then-wife - with his car, and spent 90 days in prison. Arrested again in August 2003 for drunk driving, running a red light and slamming his car into a house. In one of his Celebrity Rehabs he recounted the police beating and indicated he submitted to the police immediately which evidence did not support.

Apparently King has been sober for a year or more. I applaude anyone turning their life around. I hope this is what King has done, and I wish Cynthia Kelley good luck. Rodney King has had more than his share of luck by driving drunk, often - an action that could have killed many.

Carson-Gore Academy Toxic: Carson-Gore Academy of Environmental Sciences Built on Toxic Dirt

The Carson-Gore Academy of Environmental Sciences is scheduled to receive 675 high school students on September 13th, 2010 in the Arlington Heights area of Los Angeles. But...the monument school named after Rachel Carson and Al Gore has been built on "toxic" dirt. The $75 million school "naming" committee chose "Carson-Gore" to first honor Rachel Carson, the killer of millions of African babies after successfully getting DDT banned almost world-wide, and the former Vice-President and author Al Gore, who has worked feverishly to murder the America economy and steal the wallets of all Americans through his "green" initiatives. After cleaning up the toxic dirt under the school, if that's possible, Gore and Carson will remain toxic to humans. Do we have any doubt that the teachers at this "academy" will be toxic to our children?

This LA Times article says construction workers worked "up to" the Labor Day weekend replacing the toxic dirt from two 3,800 square-foot plots - to a depth of 45 feet - enough to hold a four-story building. It is unclear whether the building has now been deemed safe. The school principal plans to install an organic food garden, but the seeds will not be sown in above-ground planters.

From The Blaze:

Before settling on honoring Gore, the school’s naming committee teased the idea of naming the school after a communist, but that idea was dropped after one member of the committee objected:

In the spring, a school-naming committee received six options, including Pete Seeger Community School. A representative from school board member Marguerite suggested that the folk singer’s “affiliation with the Communist Party among other factors, made that choice inappropriate, two in attendance recalled.

Read more about Rachel Carson who convinced environmentalists, and governments, that spraying with DDT to kill mosquito-borne diseases...the only effective preventative for malaria, was harmful when in fact, it was life-saving. Keep this in mind, a child dies of malaria every 30 seconds. If you survive it, it reoccurs all though-out the life-span. There is no cure. World-wide, there are 250 million new malaria cases, and 1 million die every year. The Natonal Institutes of Health in 2007 said, "the ban on DDT may have killed 20 million children." If you are worried about DDT and a connection to the eagle population, you'll find this interesting.

Aside from naming a school after Carson and Gore, what's up with a $75 million school in a state on the verge of bankruptcy with a governor begging the fed to bail him out?

Zsa Zsa Gabor Plastinated? Frederic von Anhalt wants Zsa Zsa's Body Plastinated

I don't really know how a body gets plastinated, but I some vague, unpleasant visuals. Ninety-three year old Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband, Frederic von Anhalt says he wants to preserve her beauty by plastination after she dies. See a video below.

Zsa Zsa Gabor and Frederic von Anhalt

Zsa Zsa is back in the hospital in critical condition. She requested last rights several weeks ago. You may remember that von Anhalt thought he was in the running for the biological father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby daughter but Larry Birkhead won that one after a DNA test. Von Anhalt wants to plastinate his wife's" body in the context of a scene in one of her films"

Zsa Zsa Gabor

Von Anhalt is about 68 years old. In his 40's he was adopted by Princess Marie-Auguste of Anhalt who was the daughter-in-law of Kaiser Wilhelm II. After von Anhalt's marriage to Zsa Zsa in 1986 they adopted together, "several men." The "adoptions" grant the men the use of the word "Prince von Anhalt," or Prinz von Anhalt along whatever other name they use. German newspapers have accused Frederic of "selling" the title he received from Marie-Auguste.

Zsa Zsa Gabor

In 2007 Frederic von Anhalt says he was robbed and stripped of all clothing, at gunpoint, by three "attractive" women. He said he was bound and handcuffed, although he called police on a cell phone.

The Prince says Zsa Zsa always hoped her "beauty would be immortal." Read an interesting interview with Zsa Zsa here.

Babs Streisand No-Show Co-Host of Obama Fundraiser

Obama was the star at a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee fundraiser, and Babs Streisand and hubby James Brolin, who were loudly-announced co-hosts, were a no-show. Same with Jeffrey Katzenberg. Obama said the idea of the soiree was to "reward" those who took the tough votes. Video below.

James Brolin and Barbra Streisand

Reports are mixed about the cost. Politico says the cost to co-host was $30,400 per couple, but CBS says the cost to attend was $30,400 per couple. The high dollar price gets the couple a photo taken with Obama.

Labor Secretary Hilda Solis was one of the celebrity co-hosts.  Did taxpayers fund the Solis opportunity to mix with Steven Spielberg and Judd Apatow, as well as have a photo taken with BO? I can come to close to guaranteeing that Solis didn't pay the fee out of her own pocket.

But, of course, the big news is that Babs didn't show - she who has taken every opportunity to cozy up to Democrat presidents - stayed home. Now that the news is out that Obama stole the election from Streisand's favorite, Hillary Clinton, maybe Babs has had enough. I know I've had enough of Barbra and James Brolin. Take a look at this 2007 video of Brolin laughing about 9/11 and some interesting commentary on Hillary Clinton.
