With Fox "News," Hillary Clinton simply can't win

It's long been known that Fox News likes the Clintons about as much as turkeys like Thanksgiving, but they've been even more ridiculous than usual of late when it comes to their Hillary Clinton-critique.

Following Secretary Clinton's primaries' victory speech on March 15th, Fox's Brit Hume posted these tweets:

- "Hillary having a big night in the primaries. So she's shouting angrily in her victory speech. Supporters loving it. What's she mad at?"

- "Madam, did you not notice the expression on her face? Stern, angry, joyless..."

Not to be outdone, Howard Kurtz and Dana Perino joined in on the fun, posting the following tweets:

Kurtz: "Hillary shouting her speech. She has the floor; a more conversational tone might be better for connecting with folks at home."

Perino: "It is so strange to hear these inspiring words in such an angry tones. #confused #whyisshemad"

Then, just today, I read about Fox guest Monica Crowley stating this after listening to Clinton's foreign policy speech at Stanford University:

"She's a little too calm. You see more passion from Democrats when they're attacking Republicans than when they're attacking actual enemies of the United States."

There you have it, folks; no matter what Hillary Clinton says or how she says it, she'll be met with criticism over at Fox News. Expect to hear a lot of this in the coming weeks and months:

Hillary Clinton speaks passionately

Fox News: "She's too angry!"

She speaks calmly

Fox: "Where's the passion?!?"

Clinton uses sign language

Fox: "That's so arrogant and condescending!"

Hillary gives a little girl a high-five

Fox: "Is she always this violent?!?"

HRC sleeps

Fox: "Lazy! Lazy! Lazy!"

Another look at "The Nightly Show" with Larry Wilmore

After its first week, I gave The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore a B+ grade. While I didn't think the show appeared to be perfect by any stretch of the imagination, I also liked the Daily Show  meets Politically Incorrect vibe I got from it, and thought, with the proper adjustments, the show would indeed provide a great fill-in for The Colbert Report . In the show's succeeding weeks, however, I've been less impressed by it and think that if it doesn't make certain adjustments, it could be in jeopardy of losing many long-time viewers of the show's time slot. One major issue I think the show's had to this point is a lack of direction. It's been unable to decide whether it wants to be a comedy show with serious conversation sprinkled in or a serious show with comedy sprinkled in. It's almost as if the show's writers want to give The Nightly Show a Real Time with Bill Maher feel. The problem with that idea or format is the fact Real Time is an hour lon...

My first book review of "Penetrating the Heart of Life: Ambiguous In Thought, Ambivalent In Feeling"

Well, I received my first book review on this poetry-compilation book I completed and published late last year, but have finally gotten around to marketing now. The reviewer gave it 5 out of 5 stars and said: "I enjoyed the poetic journey the writer has taken me on. From darkest days and hopeful optimism to the conclusion of hope realized. The visual images that the poem titled "Room Temperature" elicits, made me think of the song, "Horse With No Name" sung by the band America. In a similar manner, another poem – "Deafening Sigh-lence" reminded me a great deal of Simon & Garfunkel’s song, "The Sound of Silence". There are so many poems in this book that I related to, that I felt a connection to the author and felt that we were traveling on this journey together." http://www.lulu.com/shop/craig-rozniecki/penetrating-the-heart-of-life-ambiguous-in-thought-ambivalent-in-feeling/paperback/product-18677501.html

A closer look at the Scramble With Friends power-ups

I am unashamed to admit that I'm a nerd. My idea of a good time is playing a word game like Boggle or Scrabble. Thankfully, I (and many others) can play such games via Facebook and/or my (our) cell phone(s). While it seems that cheating has become more commonplace in these games (Words With Friends in particular) than San Diego has had nice weather, I've yet to give in to that craze. One element present with the game Scramble With Friends (Boggle) not present in Words With Friends (Scrabble) are legal boosts called "power-ups," which cost a number of tokens from the 15 available. I've now tried all five power-ups, including the latest one which costs money. So, in case anyone's curious about playing the game or giving these power-ups a gander, here's a rundown of them all: Freeze - I think this is probably my favorite of all the power-ups. With the freeze, time stands still for a matter of seconds, which allows you more time to find words and improve...
