Have you seen this “News”Week cover? Never mind the title of the article, excuse me, the EDITORIAL, that goes along with the cover:
Holy smokes. Needless to say, there has been a LOT of discussion about this photograph, and why Newsweek would choose to run this particular photo. Taylor Marsh - former Clinton [...]

I admit, when I first saw the headline about the child refusing to say the Pledge of Allegiance, I just assumed it was about the whole “under God” thing in there. Well you know what they say when one “assumes,” and nowhere was that more the case than here, as this article makes clear, [...]

Recently, Vice President Biden reported that the Stimulus Program had created a huge number of jobs. If you have 41 minutes to spend to watch him - what the hell is the matter with you?? Oh, no wait - sorry. Ahem. I meant to say, if you have the time, you [...]

* Bumped up *
Remember back in April when Obama traveled to the G-20 and bowed to the king of Saudi Arabia? If not, here it is:
Actually, that doesn’t look as much like a bow as it does a genuflect. Not, true, says Obama’s Spokes Weasel, Robert Gibbs. Oh, no - it is [...]

Let me just warn you now. If you are drinking or eating anything as you read this, you might want to stop. This article is disturbing on so many levels, but even more, it is infuriating at the way in which it paints Major Hasan, the alleged mass murderer. This is way [...]

And I am not talking about all of the acorns all over my yard (the raccoons and squirrels are having a field day!). Nope, I am talking about ACORN, Obama’s former employer. They never fail to disappoint in the level of hubris and entitlement they bring, which can be downright [...]

We have been hearing a lot about Afghanistan of late, most of it bad. Finally, a story that will lift your spirits, a tall “tail” that is true. This one is about Sabi, who has been MIA in Afghanistan. She is MIA no longer as this article details, “Digger Dog Found After [...]

The current issue of Time Magazine has Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the cover, and an article by Joe Klein entitled, “The State of Hillary: A Mixed Record On The Job.” On Joe Scarborough the other morning, they discussed this article (major H/T to Bronwyn’s Harbor for the video):

When NQ faithful reader, Doc99, sent me this article, I had to check that it wasn’t from The Onion, or any other satire site. But no, this is for real, “Mormons Throw Support Behind Gay-Rights Cause.”
Well, I’ll be a monkey’s uncle. Sure never saw THAT one coming. I’ll give you a moment [...]

Today is a day of remembrance, a day to lift up those who have served, a day to thank them, and their families, for their service, their sacrifice, especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice. To those who have worn the uniform, I am indebted, I am grateful, and I am humbled by your [...]

On the eve of Veteran’s Day, 500 service people have been discharged from the military under “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” A policy Campaigner in Chief, Barack Obama, claimed he would end once he became Waffler In Chief. In the first actual interview with the GLBT media The Advocate during the campaign, he said:
I reasonably [...]

We are learning more and more as the days pass since the horrific terrorist attack on Fort Hood this past week- yes, I said it - that’s what it is. What else do you call it when someone plots, plans, and carries out an attack on our soil but terrorism? Was not the [...]

Yesterday was one for the ages. No, I’m not talking about the House of Representatives passing their Health Care Reform Bill. No, I will give you a break from the lunacy that is our Congress, one that passes a bill with little time for review thus resulting in Nancy Pelosi violating her promise of [...]

Due to the tragic events at Fort Hood yesterday, this post was delayed out of respect for those who were lost and wounded. Our thoughts and prayers are with their families, friends, and all those serving at Fort Hood.
Bleary eyed, but sated with my celebratory Belgian pecan waffles, turkey link sausages, numerous [...]

More and more has come out about Nidal Malik Hasan and what appears to be a cold-blooded assassination of 13 people at Fort Hood, 12 military, one civilian, and 28 wounded. The biggest piece of news for me this morning was finding out that Hasan was still alive, and one of the wounded. [...]

Election 2009 has come and gone with some major changes: VA and NJ have gone Red. Turns out, the races weren’t even all that close. Much is being discussed and debated about the meaning behind these wins by the GOP. I will leave that, and the NY 23 Owens win to the [...]

This is rich. We know about Obama’s many, many czars. Mark Steyn believes Obama has another one, someone of whom you have heard, but who isn’t on the usual list,
Obama Makes Bush His Blame Czar. You know, he has a point - we’ve been hearing for months now “He [...]

Monday night, the Phillies did what they needed to do - they won. They got to AJ Burnett early on, forcing Burnett out before he had completed 3 innings. Unfortunately, many Yankee fans were not surprised by this, having grown familiar with his hot and cold performances. In just 2 2/3 innings, Chase Utley [...]

You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it [...]

Sunday night’s game was quite a doozy. CC Sabathia took the mound for the NY Yankees on just 3 days rest against Joe Blanton of the Philadelphia Phillies. He did pretty well, the same as the first game, giving up only two runs through 6 2/3 innings. And then, Sabathia faced Chase [...]
