The high art of film has captured the brilliant moments of such minds and their processes in countless adaptations of the lives of our favorite authors.

20 Greatest Movies About Writers
I first came to Los Angeles many years ago with the hopes of doing a lot of writing, but instead I did a lot of walking. Given the profoundly accustomed car culture of the landscape, I was an anomaly as I walked everywhere and glimpsed at apartments I would never live in, restaurants I wanted...
Why is Sarah Palin even involved? Since she quit her post in Alaska, she hasn’t run for public office but acts like a politician who calls her constituents “fans.” What exactly does she do other than essentially proposition her self and image to the highest bidder?
So Sarah Palin and 2014? "Loaded for bear" video? I can see her "wrinkles".....
Ever seen a movie and thought it was entertaining and interesting? Then, after a lapse of time, you reviewed it and it wasn't as good as your remembered it to be? Yeah, me too. That happens in politics, too. With candidates. Like Alaska's former Governor and a her continued presence on the natio...
Despite all odds, our President prevailed in gaining re-election. He still has an uphill battle fighting a Red Congress which has blocked his every move in an attempt to squash his goals of bringing the Middle Class equal pay, women’s rights, gay rights and affordable healthcare. The Bush Administration drove our economy into a swift nose dive and Obama is still the patsy.

Obama Says Country, As 'One People,' Must Tackle Immigration, Gun Control
President Barack Obama used his inauguration speech Monday to ask Americans to come together to tackle the country’s toughest challenges, including immigration reforms, protecting voter rights, and gun law changes. "My fellow Americans, we are made for this moment, and we will seize it – so lon...

Tom Ricks: I Did Not Apologize
After his on-air attack on Fox News of the network's coverage of the Benghazi attacks, journalist and author Tom Ricks denies the news outlet's contention that he apologized after the interview. In an email statement to Talking Points Memo and an interview with Politico, Ricks challenges Fox exe...
The situation in Libya is being politicized and the victims and there families being instrumented as a ruse to create doubt of Obama’s leadership.

============================================AAgain my apologies for removing your link as offensive. The problems with Benghazi as symptomatic of a dishonest administration -- a "fact" that is readily apparent to any watcher who realizes the President, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, and others have lied about a little-seen video and a non-existent protest to cover up an Administration misadventure which armed radical Islamistics and inflamed the Middle East and Africa. The President high-fived over bin Laden's death while failing to mention that al Qaeda took over Mali. -- Sorry you can;t see the trees for the forest. -- steve
Why Benghazi should not be allowed to die -- What does Obama want to keep hidden from the American public?
The Obama administration twists and squirms, seeking to protect the Teflon President from the blowback of the Benghazi affair. We know that Obama and his fellow travelers got caught with his pants down. Not only did they not provide adequate security for the outpost where Ambassador of Libya was...
Black Friday is a moral sacrilege to our founding history as Americans. Every year, human lives are claimed by a feverish frenzy of glutinous greed as shoppers are driven to the brink of insanity by the eccentricities of this circus. Shopping should never be a sport nevertheless the most dangerous one. No life is worth a gaming console, computer or any electronic device.

Sorry for deleting the direct link, but your conceptual art is disgusting and offensive to me. You are welcome to comment on Fox, but it seems you have your head tangled in the liberal ideology. MSNBC is the propaganda machine. O'Reilly, Hannity and others are commentators, not hard news people or journalists. O'Reilly, while he is an amorphous, sometimes pompous pain-in-the-ass, he is probably more accurate and honest than most of the mainstream media crew or the far left liberals in general. Since we are both giving our opinions and calling it as we see it, let's just agree to disagree. -- steve
BILL O'REILLY EQUATES TWINKIES WITH POISON, HEROIN?
In a stunning display of hypocrisy, Fox’s Bill O’Reilly is talking with Dennis Miller about Twinkies and an intrusive government and then goes on to claim that … “And this is poison, you know this – this is heroin they’re selling. Right, Miller?" What a a stunning display of dishonest, dising...
Here in TN, they have taken steps though new legislation to allow creationism back into the classroom. This law turns the clock back nearly 100 years here in the seemingly unprogressive South and is simply embarrassing. There is no argument against the Theory of Evolution other than that of religious doctrine. The Monkey Law only opens the door for fanatic Christianity to creep its way back into our classrooms. You can see my visual response as a Tennessean to this absurd law on my artist’s blog at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2012/04/pulpit-in-classroom-biblical-agenda-in.html with some evolutionary art and a little bit of simple logic.

Obama Negative 2.0: Mass layoffs begin
It is with a heavy heart that I watch the meting out of the punishment America so enthusiastically voted for. These are the parents of the fascist-loving youth who helped put Obama over the top. Boy, are they in for a rude awakening. Buckle up, folks, this is going to be brutal. And it's only j...

Avalanche on Bullshit Mountain
"Is this just math that you do as a republican to make yourself feel better, or is this real." -twolf
If Obama loses this election, you can blame/thank the Right for bamboozling him. How is it ethical that an entire news network questions the President’s citizenship for four years to create doubt in voters while a fringe element of the far right demonizes and degrades him? Most of this is financed by the rich who want to keep their stranglehold on the flow of wealth in our country.

The racism of yesteryear has come full circle in our county. The entire world embraced our choice of a black President four years ago and most nations still support him. The fringe elements of bigotry have crept through into the mainstream once again with conservative mouthpieces planting the seeds of hate. The only doubt lies here at home rooting from bigotry.

Obama up by 3 in Colorado
PPP's first post-convention Colorado poll finds Barack Obama continuing to hold the lead over Mitt Romney in the state, 49-46. This is, however, the closest PPP has found the race in four Colorado polls this year suggesting that Romney may have received a modest bounce in the state. Last month w...

It was a less than stellar week abroad for “Mitt the Twit.” Romney should be more knowledgeable of foreign policy since he knows every corner of the world he can hide his money! He’s already has international financial ties which run all the way from Switzerland to the Cayman Islands. Never mind that he’s never been involved with politics outside of the US- only his millions of dollars have. Read about the role of Mitt’s money and his Magic Mormon Underwear are playing in the polls at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2012/05/mitt-romneys-magic-mormon-underwear.html where you can see for yourself the true power of both on display in full color!

Huxley is turning in his grave nearly 100 years after his visionary prophecies began to form into his own mode of fiction.

Is there any doubt that a Romney administration would favor the rich and increase the income gap in our country? Mitt is a pariah in Mormon Clothing and will stop at nothing to expand an empire of greed for the rich in this country. Can his sacred Mormon underwear gain him enough donations to buy this election?

Mitt Romney’s Magic Mormon Underwear protects him from the evils of the world including socialism, illegal immigrants, homosexuals and taxes on his inherited wealth.
