Whiners For Weiner, And Anti-Palin Whining, Too *Open Thread* »

The whining would be by some men in the “journalism” profession who think what is going on with Rep. Anthony Weiner in the press is really unfair. “Leave Anthony alone!” seems to be their cry. Good grief. Yes, that is the problem – that Weiner’s “privacy” has been violated, not that he has disgraced his [...]

Happy Fortieth Anniversary, And We Still Have A Ways To Go Yet »

On Monday, June 6th, while Congressman Weiner finally admitted he is a big fat lying pervert with no morals or sense of decency, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was celebrating the fortieth anniversary of Title IX.

If She Keeps This Up, She Could Be The Next VP **Weiner Update** And Open Thread »

Update below the fold. Debbie Wasserman Scultz, that is. Her twisting, looping, convoluted machinations to deflect for Re. Anthony Weiner should easily merit her the second spot with Obama on the ticket. I mean, really, someone who can stay the talking point repeatedly no matter how idiotic it sounds with a straight face surely does [...]

Stories Too Good To Miss – TGIF! *Open Thread* »

I just saw this headline, and had to grab this article: “MI6 attacks al-Qaeda in ‘Operation Cupcake‘; British intelligence has hacked into an al-Qaeda online magazine and replaced bomb-making instructions with a recipe for cupcakes.” Oh, my – that is freaking HILARIOUS! Here is part of the article: The cyber-warfare operation was launched by MI6 [...]

Questions About Obama and The Muslim Brotherhood Lead To More Questions **UPDATED** »

UPDATE: Protesters called for huge numbers today for Friday prayers in an effort to oust Mubarrak. Once again, the numbers are below 250,000 (“tens of thousands”), just as they were for the “Million Man March” the other day. The Cairo Metropolitan area has over 22 MILLION people, and Egypt 85 MILLION people. Again, I have [...]

“Who Let The Dogs Out?” »

Apparently a GOP district in Minnesota as evidenced by a video created by some knuckledragger who thought it would be, gosh, I don’t know – funny? membership recruitment? cool? – whatever this webmaster person thought he was doing when he created a video highlighting how much better looking Republican women are than Democratic women. Only [...]

Mosque Supporters Want WHO To Speak Out? »

You might not want to be drinking coffee or anything right this moment. Why? Well, when I tell you just who the mosque supporters want to come out in support of building the mosque 60 feet from Ground Zero, whatever beverage you’re consuming may end up on your computer screen.

Women, Education, And Baseball »

There is much going on in the US right now, from the oil spill in Louisiana (horrible, devastating, especially to such a sensitive area that has been fighting to come back), the floods in Tennessee, which damaged the Grand Ole Opry, and more importantly, took lives, as well as floods in Kentucky, to the failed [...]

“Are You Threatening Me?” »

If you mean the White House and some unions, the answer would be a resounding, YES! W.H., Labor To Vote-Switchers: We Won’t Forget. You may recall that I wrote about this very real possibility recently in, “Toddler in Chief Throws A Temper Tantrum,” based on a story from The Telegraph (U.K.). Now, it seems, not [...]

How Does This Happen In The US? »

Some of you may recall that a little over a year ago, a woman in Buffalo, NY, Aasiya Zubair Hassan, was beheaded – yes, I said beheaded – allegedly by her husband, a Muslim with influence in his community, having created a tv network to improve the image of Muslims. He was charged with second [...]

New York Says No, New Jersey Says Probably Not, and Rick Warren SHOULD Have Said No »

One more state has joined the growing list of states that will not permit same sex marriage: New York. Yes, New York which has the largest population of LGB people in the country in NY City.

NY Yankees Win 27th World Championship, and the USS New York »

(Yong Kim/ MCT) 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, [...]

Children Singing In Praise Of The One »

You are not going to believe this video below. I don’t care what your political persuasion is, this should ring alarm bills, raise red flags, and generally cause major concern. If this isn’t indoctrination, I don’t know what is:
