Sean Penn, and Jim Carry as Larry and Curly? Say it isn’t so. I might be able to take Benicio Del Toro as Moe, but the Farrelly Bros. are sticking it to Three Stooges fans. Here is some advise Farrellys…stick to toilet humor and leave comic icons and Americana alone.

March 26, 2009 - Eureka, CA Old Glory Radio
Organizers of what is being touted as a fundraising benefit to offset costs of defending local military recruiting bans in the cities of Eureka and Arcata California, have apparently duped many local businesses into quasi-sponsorship of military recruiter bans.
The leftist Redwood Peace & Justice Center, located in Arcata, CA is sponsoring a “Beer and Bread” tasting event Friday, Mar 27th 2009 in Eureka Ca. Cost of admission $15.00.
From the Redwood Peace & Justice Center press release:
“Proceeds from this year’s event on Friday March 27 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Vets Hall, at 1425 J Street will also go to the Humboldt Committee for Conscientious Objectors/GI Rights Hotline. The HCCO/GI Rights Hotline volunteers advise and support young people with military issues.”
Several local bakeries and micro-breweries were listed as sponsoring the event. When called, all of the businesses claimed no knowledge of the reason for the event.
Speaking for the Eel River Brewery, a company official stated, “we don’t make political statements and were unaware of the anti-military message.” A popular local bakery, Ramone’s, echoed the remarks, relating that the people requesting the donations of their products for the beer and bread tasting did not mention the anti-military focus of the event.
None of the event sponsors which we contacted, were aware of the use to which the money raised would be put.
Military recruitment within city limits came to the forefront of local issues last November when the cities of Arcata and Eureka voted to ban military recruiters within city limits. These measures are being challenged by the Department of Defense and Department of Justice. The “Beer and Bread” tasting is to raise money to defend the measures in court.
Humboldt Couny local and Southern Oregon Corporate sponsors listed are:
Beer - Lagunitas, Sierra Nevada, Six Rivers, Mad River, Lost Coast and Eel River.
Bread - The North Coast Co-op Bakery, Los Bagels, Brio, Tofu Shop, Wildberries, Wild Flower Café and Ramone’s.
Calls to phone numbers associated with the Redwood Peace & Justice Center for comment were either disconnected numbers or in one case, after identification as media request for comment….. denial of association with the organization. Even though the number is listed as their organization contact number.
FOLLOW UP: 26 Mar 09 - I received a call from Bill Prescott of Los Bagels, who issued the following statement: “we support the measures passed by the votors in Eureka and Arcata and the event”. Los Bagels is the only listed sponsor of the program spoken to that has issued support for raising money to defend the banning of military recruiters in the cities of Eureka and Arcata. NOTE: Mr. Prescott contacted me after the article went to print. His initial comment when asked about his support of the event was “no comment” prior to publication. It should be noted that they (Los Bagels) went out of their way to let the community know via this article that they are behind the banning of military recruiters in the Cities.
We have forwarded the comments made by the management of Los Bagels to the area VFW, American Legion posts as well as the Coast Guard station. We will be doing a follow up after the event and report expected blow back toward area businesses.

Old Glory Radio will begin hosting The Obama Forum radio show Sat at 6:00pm P.S.T. We are frankly disgusted to be doing so, but as we have been forced under threat with this new Fairness Doctrine looming over our heads….we feel we have no choice.
I want to remind our regulars that this group has grown into the largest Obama supporting forum on the net. I agreed to do this and give air time for two reasons. First, the fiarness doctrine is coming, second, it exposes these Communists to the conservative community and illustrates the danger. Their database of children reporting parents who make anti-Obama statements along with reporting co-workers, names addresses etc., is not the America any of us want to live in. SHOW WILL DBUT THIS SAT AT 6:00PM p.s.t. and I doubt it will last. Although well funded, ( I suspect Soros) they have the attention span of Travis the Chimp and I doubt many of them are sober enough at 6 in the evening to call into the program…..Tom
I have done my best to isolate them, even to the point of creating their own SHOW VIEWER page.
Rush Limbaugh is out and Jonathan Krohn is in. Address by the 13 year old conservative, note that I didn’t say Republican, at the CPAC meeting last week. There is hope for the future.
