So he holds a press conference to criticize the poor old duffers of Muirfield, a soft target, for not previously admitting women members.


He didn't just say it was wrong, but "obscene and ridiculous".He said he was disgusted and wouldn't be having a cup of tea with the members.

Will that appease the anti-Trump brigade?

Rory looking at that endorsement money and was thinking "I can't fuck that up!" Hence the Trump and golf club statements.

Glenn Beck's The Blaze has suspended host Tomi Lahren, according to a Monday report.

Lahren’s program, "Tomi," is suspended for at least a week beginning Monday, multiple unnamed sources told The Daily Caller.

On Friday, the publication also reported that Lahren may be out at The Blaze, "in September if not sooner" due to what it reported as rising tensions between the 24-year-old political commentator and other Blaze employees and hosts.

Beck took to Twitter to question whether Lahren, whom he hired in 2015, is intellectually honest.

Lahren has been criticized in some conservative circles after a Friday appearance on ABC’s "The View" for revealing that she supports abortion rights.

“You know what? I’m for limited government, so stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well,” Lahren said.

Nineteen companies have announced that they are pulling advertising from Fox News' "The O'Reilly Factor," hosted by Bill O'Reilly, following allegations of misconduct published by The New York Times this past weekend.

The companies are GlaxoSmithKline, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, Constant Contact, UNTUCKit, Sanofi, Allstate, Ainsworth Pet Nutrition/Rachael Ray Nutrish, T. Rowe Price, Mitsubishi, Wayfair, MileIQ, Lexus, Bayer, Esurance, Credit Karma, True Car and Orkin.

In response to advertisers dropping "The O'Reilly Factor," Fox News said in a statement Tuesday, "We value our partners and are working with them to address their current concerns about 'The O’Reilly Factor.' At this time, the ad buys of those clients have been re-expressed into other FNC programs."

Have a look at this



The Acceptance Ring, It's to support Gay Marriage which isn't legal here, yet.
The break in the ring signifies that Marriage isn't complete until it's legal for all sexual preferences.

I've no problems with it, not my concern.
My concern is that companies want their employees to wear that.
What if you don't support Gay Marriage, and say your not a lunatic but have a legitimate reason for it like your religion forbids it ??? Are you going to get alienated at work for not wearing it because it's the in thing to do ??? I thought companies were supposed to prevent that happening and just let their employees do their work ???

Makes me wonder if companies just want to look like their doing the right thing and chase profits using political correctness

Hey when I said this

Just remember: political correctness is the veil financial correctness uses when it is in public.

Maybe I should have replaced "financial correctness" with "companies" cause that is exactly what I meant.

I know, your post reminded of what I was listening to on talk back radio 2 days ago.

This I know, I'm loyal with companies I like, but when they start with that kind of crap I'll ditch em' without thinking about it.

They figured he was the one fucking up his name no need for our name to get fucked up with him. Just like any employee once someone's usefulness is outlived they are going to cut ties. They never really love you, the only love what you can do for them

Pepsi announced Wednesday that it was yanking its latest advertisement featuring Kendall Jenner and an ambiguous protest story line.

The move comes within 24 hours of the release of the ad, which prompted ridicule and an outcry among critics who viewed the campaign as a failed attempt to appropriate social justice movements in service of selling soft drinks.

Pepsi was trying to project a global message of unity, peace and understanding,” the company said in a statement Wednesday. “Clearly we missed the mark, and we apologize.”

Previously, Pepsi defended the advertisement as “a global ad that reflects people from different walks of life coming together in a spirit of harmony, and we think that’s an important message to convey,” the company said Tuesday night.
