Tweet Of The Day


Hassan Rouhani was elected President of Iran in May.  Many people believed that his landslide win was a result of a cultural change in the nation; rejecting the ultra-conservative policies of Ahmadinejad.

Is Iran truly starting to become a more progressive nation in the Middle East?  Or, is this a preventative measure, essentially telling Israel that they don't want to be bombed?

Either way....this is nothing but a positive development in the region.

Today In Culturally Insensitive Programming

VH1 Classic is airing 24 hours of RUSH concerts, videos and documentaries on September 8th, to commemorate the Jewish new year, Rosh Hashanah.  They're calling it RUSH Hashanah.  Slightly insensitive toward the Jewish community.  In the Jewish faith, the new year is the beginning of a period specifically set aside to focus on repentance.

Very smooth, VH1.
