Kudos to the FBI for showing a tremendous amount of restraint in waiting out the kooks who holed up in the bird sanctuary in Oregon. Letting these idiots freeze for a month may have led to their catastrophic bad decision to drive a hundred miles away to meet with “local leaders”, which was an obvious…… Continue Reading

Do NOT Boycott the Oscars! By RALPH BAILEY
The ABC 23 news team sent a camera guy over to our studios Tuesday night and asked my thoughts on Jada Pinkett Smith’s call for a boycott of the upcoming Academy Awards. While comedy is a great hook, my performance was a complete embarrassment. I may have even been funny but I was a buffoon performing…… Continue Reading
King Had A Dream But Do We Even Have a Plan? By RALPH BAILEY
I was five years old when one of the greatest revolutionary leaders the world has ever seen was gunned down in Memphis.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s beloved alma mater,…… Continue Reading

CAN THIS BE THE GOP? By Ralph Bailey
Let’s hope that the prognostication ability of the nine men and women running for president out of the Republican Party is equal to my own when it comes to NFL games … horrendous at best. Did anyone hear the world laid out according to the candidates? New Jersey Gov.Chris Christie wants to start World War…… Continue Reading
The Rise Of Non-Christmas Christmas Ads
Nobody cares less than I do about whether or not businesses say “Merry Christmas” when I walk into a store. I also don’t care about the phrase “Happy Holidays”. Seems nice enough. But I do get irritated by all the TV ads that refuse to recognize Christmas while simultaneously profiting off all it’s symbolism. If…… Continue Reading
Co-ed Terror
The latest terror attacks in Paris and California gave us something relatively new- female terrorists. Terror attacks have always been largely carried out by a pretty small demographic- muslim men in their 20’s and thirties. Well now we’ve seen the new face of radical islam, and women are fully involved. This will be a big…… Continue Reading
