Despite a categorical denial, evidence is mounting that leading Hawaii gubernatorial candidate Neil Abercrombie, is a covert socialist. What is worse, he may be lying about it.

ANSWER: NO. Neil has never been part of any socialist or communist organization. My original post included documentary evidence, from Democratic Socialists of America publications...

Obama File 106 hereNeil Abercrombie was a long time Hawaii Democratic Congressman and is currently running for the Governorship of that state. Barack Obama, Neil Abercrombie While in Congress, Neil Abercrombie was one of Barack Obama's earliest and most vocal supporters. This is not surprising, as there is a close Obama/Abercrombie family connection and seemingy many shared values. While studied at the University of Hawaii at Mânoa in the early 1960s, Abercrombie attended classes with and befriended current United States President Barack Obama's parents, Stanley Ann Dunham and the young Marxist economist Barak Obama.

Wow, Neil Young, Conan and NBC really missed the boat for a great comic opportunity tonight on Conan's last show by NOT having Neil Young sing "Pants on the Ground", a la Jimmy's impression of Neil doing the same a couple of nights ago. Very sad and missed insight...IMO. (I was truly shocked when it Did Not happen)... And it's all NBCers. :-(=

Neil is back after having brain surgery! Looks like our prayers have paid off!!!

Canadian singer-songwriter Neil Young was interviewed on PBS's Charlie Rose show. The show, almost a complete hour, can be watched at this link. (Thanks to Jay for the tip.) If you can get past some of the political baggage, and you like Neil Young, it's an entertaining interview, where Young comes across funny, sincere and kind of sweetly naïve. With regard to the politics and his Let's Impeach the President phase, Young certainly is giving the distinct impression of having second thoughts. Some of what he says when Charlie prods him on the war: I look at it Charlie as...

The Dixie Chicks appear to be more popular than the president these days. President Bush's approval rating has plummeted, but the Chicks are on top of the pop and country charts with their first album since publicly criticizing Bush three years ago. They did it without the support of country radio, which largely ignored the Dixie Chicks after lead singer Natalie Maines told a London audience in 2003 that the group was ashamed Bush was from their home state of Texas. The new album, "Taking the Long Way," took the No. 1 spot Wednesday on the country albums chart and...

Cavuto called the current Social Security...

Local war heroes and conservative bloggers say they don’t need Canadian anti-war rocker Neil Young around, anyhow. Young’s new album, “Living With War,” with its call for President Bush’s impeachment, is being dismissed as a feeble blast at the war by a wrinkled hippie whose life span has exceeded his relevance. Marine Lance Cpl. James Crosby of Saugus, who pushed for legislation to aid wounded soldiers, said the men and women fighting in Iraq, and the ones who came before them, are buying Young’s freedom of expression. “People are going to have their opinion,” said Crosby, who lost the use...
