We’re off soon to our local Memorial Day parade, but I wanted to send some words of appreciation to those who serve, have served, and especially those who have made the ultimate sacrifice so that we may remain free. I have a new post at Michelle’s site, partly about my cousin who was killed in [...]

Filed Under Entertainment, Politics | 3 Comments
California Rep. Diane Watson (D-iff’rentStrokes) spent her floor speech time last week addressing the tough issues. Click the pic to watch our nation’s problems being solved — but at least I did learn that Gary Coleman was “born in Illinoizz” and was reminded twice that he was “short in statue.” The best and brightest are [...]

In the past couple of years, I never could figure out for what reason or reasons the left and many even on the right had for praising Barack Obama’s competence and intelligence. That’s not a slam on Obama, it’s just that there is simply no part of Obama’s past that anyone can point to — [...]

I’m thinking that Joe McGinniss’s stunt may well end up falling into the “epic backfire” category before too long. He can say “You’re trespassing” from behind closed doors, but I hope he’s stocked up on supplies for the entire summer, because if he has to head into town for groceries, he’s fair game for questions [...]

Filed Under Environment, Politics | 1 Comment
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal and everybody else in the state are desperate to begin cleaning up the ever-increasing messes of crude oil along the shoreline, but they can’t because they’re still waiting for the federal government permits. Speaking with Anderson Cooper from an oil-covered marsh, Jindal asked the government to “approve this emergency permit, let [...]

Creepy, Palin-obsessed stalker-guy writer Joe McGinniss rented the house next door to the Palin family so he could spy on them for an upcoming book, but he’s going to have to do it from atop a ladder now, which will make it a lot more difficult to balance the note pad, camera, Jergens and box [...]
