Oprah demonstrates her belief in crap
-Bad reviews are the best kind-
If I believed in life after death, I'd probably believe I was going to burn for being mean. One of my favorite things in the world are bad reviews. Book reviews, movie reviews, it doesn't matter. There's never been a good review that was funny. Besides, bad reviews justify the existence of some real trash.
Take TV critic Dean Robbins' review of last night's Oprah Winfrey Presents: Mitch Albom's For One More Day.
"For One More Day finally settles into its corny plot as Chick encounters his mother's ghost," Robbins writes. "She helps him understand his troubled past and points the way to redemption. Now there's a novel idea: a holiday movie about a fallen man whose life is turned around via supernatural intervention. What Oprah and Mitch lack in originality they more than make up for in passion. They clearly believe in this crap with all their hearts."
See what I mean? If Oprah didn't make this crap, you would've never read that paragraph. It almost makes the crap worth it. It kind of brings Barack Obama into question, though. (The Isthmus)
-Headline of the day-
"Sen. Biden: Bush administration is like Nixon's 'without the competence'." Talk about your bad reviews... I hereby renounce any bad thing I've ever said about Joe Biden. (Raw Story)
-They're trying to out-crazy each other-
Mitt's "let's all hate atheists" speech has been commented on by many on the right and left. Concerned Women for America's Janice Shaw Crouse and Gary Cass of the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission aren't fans.
Crouse said, "The hostility and distrust of Evangelicals far exceeds that faced by the Mormons," While Cass wants Mitt to "renounce the historic Mormon hostility to Christianity."
We get it guys, America is a terrible place to be a Christian -- Mormons come and steal your lunch money. You can climb down off your crosses any time now... (Right Wing Watch)
