Michelle Obama Guest Stars on 'Parks and Recreation' Season Finale
She’s made more than 100 television appearances. Her next one will be on “Parks and Recreation’s” season finale, April 24. But she’s not an actress. She’s the first lady of the United States, and she’s Hollywood royalty.
Mrs. Obama clearly enjoys the spotlight, and the liberal TV industry is happy to give her the attention. She has been a frequent guest on “The Late Show,” “The Daily Show…

Threesomes and Polyamory: The Left’s Got an App for That

Save Us! Ashley Judd in NBC Texas Church Drama
Is NBC crazy? In this day and age, it takes real chutzpa to develop a “provocative drama set against the backdrop of a prominent Michigan mosque where faith, family and corruption are explored in equal measure.” Wait, back that up. Replace “Michigan mosque” with “Texas church.” Now that makes sense.
Perhaps operating on the theory that pop culture just doesn’t do enough to stick it to…
Column: A Force More Powerful Than Oscar

Alec Baldwin, at NY Mag's Vulture.com: 'It’s Good-bye to Public Life
In a lengthy item "as told to Joe Hagan" at NYMag.com's The Vulture, actor, commercial pitchman, and brief MSNBC host Alec Baldwin makes it very clear that he is fed up with a lot of things.
There is plenty of material for discussion in his writeup. I want to focus on what he sees as his mistreatment at the hands of MSNBC and the self-described "progressive" community. Unfortunately, after…
WashPost Boosts Homosexual's Activism Against Catholic Priest Who Deni
On Friday, the Washington Post predictably depicted a Catholic hospital chaplain as the aggressor, after the priest denied an ailing, openly-homosexual patient Communion and the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick.
