Just when you think our Elected Officials cannot possibly be any stupider, there is this article, Pelosi: It’s Cheaper to Treat Teens for Drug Use Than Interdict Drugs at Border. Sigh. Okay, here’s the thing. I love San Francisco. It is a beautiful city. But seriously, how can they keep electing this woman?? Read it [...]

Students Sent Home For Wearing Patriotic Clothes »

I could not believe my eyes when I saw this story last night, “Students Kicked Off Campus for Wearing American Flag Tees; Freedom of expression or cultural disrespect on Cinco de Mayo?.” Now, there are times kids might need to change their t-shirts, or turn them inside out, or what have you, for inappropriate messages, [...]

Things Get Hot, And “Do As We Say, Not As We Do,” Says Calderon »

Well, the protests against Arizona and any immigration reform have come and gone from the weekend. Despite the sheer volume of the cries, the number of people were not what was expected.

Giving New Meaning To The Term, “Bully Pulpit” »

Yet another crack in the Obama devotion from many in the MSM is surfacing. My colleague, Linda Anselmi, came across this article recently, and passed it on.

Where Al Qaeda And Health Care Collide »

Who would have guessed there would be a connection between the current Health Care debate, and what’s missing from it, and al Qaeda? Not me, until I read this article recently, Let America Have The Smallpox and Anthrax Vaccines. Why is this important? Aren’t we done with that whole smallpox thing? And Anthrax – wasn’t [...]

You know, it being GLBT Pride Month and all, as Obama the Backstabber declared the other day – copying Hillary Clinton, ONCE AGAIN, after she acknowledged the 40th Anniversary of Stonewall (“Cheney Two, Obama Nothing, Clinton – a Thousand,” and “In Recognition of LGBT Pride Month“), the posts keep writing themselves. We already have gaping [...]

The Cat’s Out Of The Bag »

Okey dokey – so the big Veep selection is out, as you have surely heard by now: Joe Biden. Wow. All of this hoopla for HIM?? Frankly speaking, I am not a huge fan of his. Post 9/11, he found every opportunity to get his photo taken with President Bush in the Rose Garden. Oh, [...]
