Al Gore’s New $8.8 Million Pad

Being green has its rewards:

Former Vice President Al Gore and his wife, Tipper, have added a Montecito-area property to their real estate holdings, reports the Montecito Journal.



The couple spent $8,875,000 on an ocean-view villa on 1.5 acres with a swimming pool, spa and fountains, a real estate source familiar with the deal confirms. The Italian-style house has six fireplaces, five bedrooms and nine bathrooms.
I hope it's far enough up the hill to avoid the rising oceans.



And won't all those fountain, spa and pool pumps require an awful lot of energy?

American Idol Ratings: Top 6 Results Stands Above the Competition



via Mediaweek


-Ratings Breakdown:

Led by American Idol, Fox got over the Wednesday “hump” in winning fashion, with an advantage over the No. 2 network (CBS in total viewers; ABC among adults 18-49) of 4.89 million viewers and 1.7 rating points in the demo).


The live American Idol Results Show stood well above the competition with 19.39 million viewers and a 6.5 rating/17 share among adults 18-49 at 9 p.m. Comparably, that built from a repeat of Lie to Me (Viewers: #3, 5.28 million; A18-49: #2, 1.7/ 3), which will be keeping the Wednesday 8 p.m. hour occupied until new dramedy The Good Guys debuts on May 19, by 14.11 million viewers and 282 percent in the demo. Needless to say, Crystal Bowersox is an absolute lock to win this season.


This morning’s preliminary numbers are a little higher than Tuesday’s numbers. It will be interesting to see if that holds up once the final numbers are in.

Adam Lambert ? Morgenmagazin, Germany ? VIDEO




Adam Lambert, in the midst of the second leg of his European promo tour, appeared on the German morning show, Morgenmagazin, yesterday.


In the interview, conducted in German with Adam’s answers dubbed over, the interviewer mentions Adam’s disdain for questions on being dubbed “the Male Lady Gaga”.  Adam laughs and says it’s OK now, because he’s “had a break” from that line of questioning.


After Adam and his band perform a lovely acoustic version of “Whataya Want From Me”, the interviewer dubs him “the Male Adam Lambert”, and there are laughs all around…


Adam comes back to the states next week to get ready for his first North American headlining tour, The Glam Nation Tour. (More info on that HERE.)

Ignorance, Incompetence, or Invention

The Arizona immigration bill has stirred up all kinds of predictable reactions from the wacky left.  It's also stirred up predictable demagoguery from the president.  Speaking to a hand-picked crowd in Ottumwa, IA the president made this comment about the new law:

"Now, suddenly, if you don't have your papers and you took your kid out to get ice cream, you're going to get harassed -- that's something that could potentially happen ... That's not the right way to go."
There are three possible reasons Obama would make that statement that is as factually incorrect as that one is:



  • He doesn't know what's actually in the law and is speaking from ignorance.

  • He's read the law but doesn't understand it, which means he's speaking from incompetence.

  • He knows what's in the law, doesn't like it, and is therefore inventing his own facts.  You can also call that lying.

I'm going with the third option.




In my recent piece "America, Face It, Your President Was Raised to Hate You" I talked about the many corrupting influences in Obama's past.  He was surrounded by people who hated police, and in at least one case (William Ayers) tried to kill cops.  He undoubtedly heard sermons from Jeremiah Wright which claimed police oppression against blacks, and I'm convinced he grew up with a hatred of law enforcement which continues to color his judgment today.  We saw it in the Cambridge incident and we'll probably see it again in the near future.

New York Wants to Force Everyone To Be An Organ Donor

I'm completely in favor of people signing up to be organ donors, and completely opposed to this idea:

Organ donation has become a vital way to save lives around the world, but a vast shortage of donors continues to mean people are losing their lives while on waiting lists.



But there is a unique proposal that could change all that.



New York State Assemblyman Richard Brodsky nearly lost his daughter, Willie, at 4 years old when she needed a kidney transplant, and again 10 years later when her second kidney failed.



"We have 10,000 New Yorkers on the list today waiting for organs. We import half the organs we transplant. It is an unacceptable failed system," Brodsky said.



To fix that, Brodsky introduced a new bill in Albany that would enroll all New Yorkers as an organ donor, unless they actually opt out of organ donation. It would be the first law of its kind in the United States.



"Overseas, 24 nations have it. Israel has it. Others have it. And it works without a lot of controversy," Brodsky said.
Freedom means being free to decide what happens to your body and its parts after death too. While I would encourage people to sign up, there's no way the state should be allowed to mandate it or make it the default position.



This could also raise some interesting issues as it relates to abortion. If it turns out the state can mandate that you donate your organs, couldn't it also mandate that you have or not have an abortion? Or perhaps some other procedure that you may not want?



Sorry, Mr. Brodsky, bad idea.

Say Goodbye to Charlie Crist

Florida Gov. Charlie Crist will announce today that he's leaving the battle for the GOP nomination for Senate, where he's getting his butt kicked, and will run as an independent where odds are he still won't win but could also cost Republican Marco Rubio the seat.



How desperate is Crist to win this seat?  This desperate:

Marc Ambinder reports:





Charlie Crist, soon to be independent Senate candidate from Florida, tried to reach White House chief of staff Emanuel through intermediates. WH refuses to take the call. Dems plan big talent/money blitz for Kendrick Meek.
What's Crist up to? Might he be interested in cutting a deal to caucus with the Democrats if they chase Meek from the field?
Who knows? But the most plausible path to victory for Crist is if Meek backs him. That's a real possibility, I think, later in the game if Rubio and Crist are each getting about 40% in the polls and Meek is getting about 20%. But, as voters get to know the lesser-known Rubio and Meek, it's probably more likely they emerge as the frontrunners and Crist fades as election day approaches.
And then does Crist throw his support to Meek in hopes of getting a nice ambassadorship? Again, who knows? In a three-way race things could get a little crazy (maybe starting with the speculation about how crazy things could get).
Crist's political career will self-destruct today. He doesn't have the support he thinks he does and people won't be impressed at all with his poor sportsmanship. He's toast, and hopefully his GOP supporters will leave him and stay with the party and Rubio.

Idol Headlines for 04/29/10



It’s Time for a Second Save – VFTW Endorses Michael Lynche


So now that we’re in the top 5, the VFTW pick has come down to Michael Lynche and Aaron Kelly. The choice went back and forth, but after some thought, it’s obvious who we should help save: Michael. He’s arrogant, he’s cheesy, and he’s only around because he’s riding a wave of sympathy from almost being eliminated. Most people would’ve loved to have seen home go home in 9th place like he was supposed to, so if he even lasts one more week, fans won’t be too happy. People seem to really hate this guy, which just means he’s perfect to plaster up on our site. The hate for Aaron isn’t even half as big, so that’s no fun just yet. And whereas Aaron is trying to improve, Mike just does the same thing every week without listening to the judges at all.

American Idol 9 Top 6 Results ? Recap Roundup



‘Idol’ results show minute-by-minute: Sitting shiva for Siobhan


But alas, it’s the name of the game, so read on for all the offscreen action, including a bonus Lady Gaga post-tape complete with fire-spitting crying angels, lace pasties, black veils and creepy trees.


5:42 p.m. Spotting Crystal’s boyfriend taking their son for a spin in his stroller, a quick chat with stage manager Debbie Williams yields some details about the Lady Gaga performance being taped after the show (and airing next week). Namely, that she practiced until 9:30 on Tuesday night, an hour after her scheduled stop time, that the dancers (a couple from “So You Think You Can Dance”) are male-on-male and cut like nobody’s business and that the performance includes fire, blood and tears in its visually stunning display. Debbie also noted Gaga’s maturation as an artist since the last time she performed on the “Idol” stage, especially in the dance department. And Gaga was hoping she’d notice, asking Debbie, “Did I get better?”

‘American Idol’: Rascal Flatts, Shakira, Cameron Diaz, Antonio Banderas and…Lady Gaga? (On the scene for Top 6 results)


However, after the show was over and the 19 Entertainment logo had chirped, none other than Lady Gaga invaded the Idoldome, and, shockingly, she decided to put on an insanely elaborate spectacle involving a 20 foot (or so) working fountain and a half-dozen (or so) half-naked male dancers. Of course, you at home won’t get to see her performance until it airs during an upcoming results show, so my descriptions of it may not exactly make a whole heap of sense — and Lady Gaga already enjoys tango dancing on the far edge of basic visual comprehension anyway. Some of you may not even want to know anything about what Lady Gaga unleashed upon the Idol stage at all, and I don’t blame you. So when we get to the that portion of the recap, those wishing to remain unspoiled can simply click on over to Slezak’s review of the show itself.
