One just has to wonder what prompted the child in the video below to ask Obama the question he did. Maybe people in his household were decrying the lack of it, or maybe this child was picking up on the animosity in the air, or maybe he just wanted to share the good news [...]

Harry Reid has finally grown a backbone, it seems. His timing for it, though, is disturbing, to say the least. When he was first picked for Senate Majority Leader, I thought that maybe he really would be a stand up guy, a fighter, as his former boxing career would suggest. Well, he’s [...]

Oh, dear. This not very good advertising for the way the Feds run programs. It seems that while the so-called “Cash for Clunkers” program is a HUGE success, the automobile dealers are not getting reimbursed for all of the money they have shelled out. At least one, MAJOR, state has had it, [...]

As some of you know, my mother suffered a stroke recently. I am currently in my home town spending time with her and getting her house in order. As a result, I rushed a recent post on “DADT” I wrote in order to get to the nursing center in a timely [...]

“This Guy” being President Obama, and the ones making excuses for him are people in the LGBT community. In this particular instance, I mean over “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Yes, the Supreme Court has rejected a challenge to “DADT” in the case of Infantryman, and JAG officer, James Pietrangelo II (H/T to Soldier4Hillary [...]

It’s that time of year. If you are one of the lucky Americans still working in an office atmosphere, you probably have been inundated with bracket contests tied to the NCAA Tournament. I love the tournament and watch those [...]

Via Washington Whispers, “We’re receiving E-mails from Capitol Hill staffers expressing frustration that they can’t get a copy of the stimulus bill agreed to last night at a price of $789 billion. What’s more, staffers are complaining about who does have a copy: K Street lobbyists.” (That’s no surprise. Most legislation these days is [...]

Now, here’s another jaw-dropping observation about how the Obama administration is NOT operating at maximum energy and force:
Tonight, I heard that Barack Obama was stunned that Harry Reid had trouble keeping even his own Democrats in line. Doesn’t Obama realize that many of [...]

For those of you who don’t know this golf term, it’s a do-over. It’s allowed between friends when something ruins what should have been a decent shot. Like maybe a loud noise during your back-swing. So the distraction or other accidental occurrence causes you to blow the shot. You ask for a Mulligan, and your [...]

I bet Roland Burris can’t either. First, according to NBC Chicago, Obama “forcefully” sided with the Senate, and Harry “No One Gets To Come Into My Clubhouse If I Don’t Want Them Here” Reid, saying that while Burris is a good man, he wasn’t going to get the secret handshake to gain admittance.

Harry, Harry, Harry. What’s up with you, man?
Say this is not true.
You tell us that armed guards are going to keep Roland Burris from taking his seat. One strike.
But Harry, now this?

That’s the number of questions Caroline Kennedy has answered in her pursuit to secure Hillary Clinton’s seat, according to THIS article in the NY Times. Want to guess how many interviews she has granted in this pursuit? Zero. How about answers to questions regarding her finances? [...]

Proponents of the new economic stimulus package show off the comfort and versatility of alpaca fleece.
Now, this is a plan by Congress that might actually be worthwhile from those brilliant “reporters” at The Onion:Congress To Raise Alpacas To Aid Struggling Economy. Yep - this sounds like a real winner. If only they had [...]
