There’s a special place in hell reserved for OJ blogger Art Pedroza
Posted by: Sarah Michelle Spinosa
Art Pedroza claims to have broken this story over at the blog that will go unmentioned. Considering how much information Art had, I wonder if Noah Krom wasn’t pushed over the cliff or something. The poor kid is being exploited by a thug who clearly has no respect for the dead.
Are the personal details surrounding his death really news Art? So what if he was drunk? So what if he had an argument with a cab driver? Are you implying that he got what he deserved? Attacking his character isn’t going to bring him back and you didn’t ‘break’ the story, you created one. It was so much easier since he isn’t here to defend himself, now is he?
Art, we all know you lost a brother, but you’re not the first or last guy that’s ever used empathy as a tool of manipulation. You have no shame. Again.
My condolences to the Krom family.

Another response to more vitriol from Jasmyne Cannick, formerly of L.A. Times
Posted by: Sarah Michelle Spinosa
In response to this drivel from everyone’s favorite self-hating Black lesbian:
I don’t even know where to begin. There is so much wrong with your view Miss Panther, so I’ll do my best to show you exactly what, but it’s safe to say that your conclusions are a chaotic mess at best. Here goes:
‘… the fact remains that two people getting married, same-sex or not, has no financial impact whatsoever on the rest of us. None. We may not like it, but at the end of the day, gay marriage doesn’t take food from anyone’s mouth, clothes off of anyone’s back, or a roof from over someone’s head. But judging from the way we acted, you would have thought that it did.’
Oh Jasmyne, you poor dear. Are you ever right about *anything*? Ever? Not only would overturning Prop 8 invite bright, talented gay people to California in droves, but gay marriage has already produced this result in Massachusetts. Furthermore, there is an economic backlash (and rightly so) against those who decided that in a time of economic crisis, their money was best spent on stripping a minority class of its rights.

Ayn Rand on Chrysler and Taxing Offshore Corporations
Posted by: Sarah Michelle Spinosa
Instead of raising taxes on offshore companies they should instead lower taxes for corporations existing solely in the U.S. That is the only way to reduce the size of government and encourage domestic growth simultaneously.
Nobody should be punished with a higher tax rate for trying to minimize costs, but we CAN use tax incentives to make that minimization, well, minimal.
