George Clooney’s Four Month Affair With A Lapdancer

I’m Not Obsessed: George Clooney’s Four Month Affair With A Lapdancer

"Sarah Talley is claiming she secretly dated George Clooney for over four
months after they met in the Vegas bar where she lap dances. Typically, I would
laugh off a report like this. But she actually only has kind things to say about
him and makes no mention of an unwanted pregnancy. So who knows? George has to
get his groove on too you know. Here she talks about when they first met:"


That sounds like one lucky lap dancer, if this story is true.

Allie Is Wired - The Entertainment Blog: Kim Kardashian Talks Trash on Whitney Houston

Allie Is Wired - The Entertainment Blog: Kim Kardashian Talks Trash on Whitney Houston:

"I guess the sex tape was not enough for Kim Kardashian. She is now involved in
another scandal with Ray J, but this time Whitney Houston is in the mix. The
Post Chronicle reports, Kardashian left “fiery messages on ex-boyfriend Ray J’s
voicemail about his new love Whitney Houston.” A hacker has apparently gone into
Ray J's voicemail and stolen the messages. Now, everyone will be able to hear
them in a new song. "


I don't think picking a fight with Houston is a good idea for Kim. I hope this turns out to be false.

Allie Is Wired - The Entertainment Blog: Kim Kardashian is Dating Diana Ross' Son

Allie Is Wired - The Entertainment Blog: Kim Kardashian is Dating Diana Ross' Son:

"Reportedly, she was with Evan Ross at Les Deux this weekend and onlookers said
'it was definitely a date.' Evan is the son of Diana Ross, and he's EIGHT years
younger than her. Ordinarily eight years would not be a big deal, but Kim is
only 27, which puts little Evan at 19 years old. Kim, you're cutting it kind of
close aren't you?"


Wait I thought she was dating some Bush guy - no not the President or his brother.

The Olsen Twins Have A Lot Of Nerve

A Socialite's Life: The Olsen Twins Have A Lot Of Nerve

"That was the figure we hear they put on photographs from their lavish
21st birthday party, which they celebrated on the weekend in Los Angeles. (They
actually hit the age of majority last Wednesday.) 'They are selling them through photo agency JPI,' says an insider."


While some sites are saying that the Olsen's should not be charging so much for photos of themselves. I would ask why they should not be entitled to earn money of their pictures - everyone else can.

Paris Hilton Enjoys Popularity in Prison

A Socialite's Life: Paris Hilton Enjoys Popularity in Prison

"'The whole facility is benefiting from her -- we all thank her,' said
Lopez. 'She's the talk of the jail -- I'd call her the top dog. People are
getting fed more and inmates like me are being let out sooner because they don't
want people around her.'"

I think this could help explain why the jail wanted to send her home. I have said it over and over again, having Hilton there means that she has lawyers that are going to be defending her rights. Defending her rights in ways that everyone rights should be, but they normally aren't.

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Limbaugh) - AMERICAblog: A great nation deserves the truth

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Limbaugh) - AMERICAblog: A great nation deserves the truth:

"I'd heard about this this morning - a memo that the Obama people were
shopping around to the press - but didn't get the full story, or the full flavor
of the story, until just a few minutes ago. I thought Obama was simply going
after Hillary for supporting outsourcing of jobs, or for Hillary being supported
by people who are in favor of outsourcing. And sure enough, the Obama memo talks
a good deal about outsourcing, though in ways that do seem to skirt the line of
racism or at least xenophobia (calling her 'HILLARY CLINTON (D-PUNJAB)') and
noting that 'Hillary Clinton Accepted Almost $60,000 In Contributions From
Employees Of Cisco Systems, Which Laid Off American Workers to Hire Indian
'Techies.'' (I was a bit uncomfortable with the use of the word 'Indian' over
and over and over again in the memo.) But I still wasn't sure that we had moved
from outsourcing to racism until we hit the paragraph about all the money and
support that Hillary has received from 'Indian-Americans.' Sure, the rest of the
memo deals with how one of Hillary's top Indian-American supporters is allegedly
a bit shady, and that's fair game, but the memo is about more than that. The
memo is clearly trying to make the point that Hillary gets lots and lots of
support from Indian-Americans, and apparently there's some kind of problem with
that. I guess because their kin back home are stealing all of our good white
jobs. (No word on whether they're sleeping with our women too.)"


Globalism should not and cannot be understood as a struggle between Americans and Indians/Mexicans/Chinesse over jobs. While there are some jobs that are lost as they move over seas, by giving jobs with real money earning potential, creates American jobs by creating a market for American goods and services. Labor is not a zero sum game, where every gain made in India is a loss for Americans, that is just not the case. I have had my reservations about Obama for a while, but this pretty much seals up the fact that I will not be voting for him.
