Have you seen the Dallas Tea Party, Keith Olbermann diversity challenge. The Dallas Tea Party released a video yesterday in response to MSNBC’s Olbermann’s statements that the Tea Party didn’t have a diverse membership. You can see the video below.
Its not uncommon for the liberal host of ‘Countdown with Keith Olbermann’ to make outrageous, idiotic and self-righteous statements about anyone or anything that doesn’t walk in lock-step with his views. Those views are, of course, the same views of anyone who is accepted by the far left of this country. The reason for that is if you don’t have the same views, you aren’t a part of their inner-circle. You see the irony of the left’s claim to having a corner on diversity? They have none.

An iceberg breaks off Mertz Glacier in the Antarctic region. Scientists say this has nothing to do with global warming, climate change or this year’s cooling trend. It was just hit by another iceberg after having already been hit by yet another one and broke loose. You can see a satellite photo and a video below.
Mertz Glacier
A huge chunk of the Mertz Glacier Tongue broke off in the Antarctica region. The finger-like iceberg protruded from the glacier and is 985-square miles of ice. It is 48 miles long and 24 miles wide, according to Neal Young, Australian Antarctic Division glaciologist. It is said to be approximately the size of Oahu or Luxembourg. The break happened on February 12th and 13th.
The Times of London reported on Sunday that the split of this iceberg could disrupt global ocean patterns and weather systems for decades to come. It could block the production of cold, salty water gradually leading to colder winters in the North Atlantic over the next few decades. Scientist also say that it could have a negative impact on some of Antarctica’s wildlife, such as a large colony of emperor penguins who live near to where it broke off from the glacier. The break means they will have to travel farther to get food.

The Two Obama Voters on an Escalator video is a retitled and re-released video of a video that went viral about 3-years-ago in a viral video contest for Becel Margarine. Last year, the same video was re-uploaded with some editing, the second minute was deleted, and re-titled as ‘Democrats on an Escalator’. Now, it has been picked up again and retitled yet again, ‘Two Obama Voters on an Escalator’. Once again, it is making the rounds with its new title. The truth may hurt, but it’s still funny. Enjoy

Prince Frederic von Anhalt, otherwise known as Zsa Zsa Gabor’s eight husband has announced he is running for California Governor. Read about it below and see his photo. There is a video below of his take on Proposition 8, but it’s best to somehow block out the interviewer to listen to it.
Prince Frederic von Anhalt
First, you might want to filter the announcement that Prince Frederic von Anhalt is going to run for Governor of California with a few facts about the man. He’s Zsa Zsa Gabor’s much younger 8th husband. Also, he’s not really a prince (per se). He was adopted by Princess Marie-Auguste of Alnhart when he was 37-years-old and gave him the title, Prince Frederic von Anhalt of Munich, the Duke of Saxony. However, European royal families do not recognize him as royalty, his title is not official and most feel he just bought the title. Therefore, he uses the name Frederick Prinz von Anhalt on legal documents.

There is a Sarah Palin, Family Guy controversy brewing. Actually, its pretty much at full boil. The Palin family is firing back at Fox’s ‘Family Guy’ for mocking Palin’s son Trig Palin, who has Down’s Syndrome. A video clip of the controversial segment of the show is available for you to view below.
I guess the ‘progressives’ just can’t get enough of seeing how low they can go to make fun of Sarah Palin and her family. While the Obama children of ‘off limits’ for any news coverage, even pictures, the Palin children have been fodder for rumors, smears, insults and down-right meanness from the moment Sarah Palin stepped onto the national scene. It is disgusting at the very least.

What’s that you say? Yes, they’ve banned the use of a ‘Support Our Troops’ slogan as being too political for the Olympics.
