Good riddance to bad, arrogant, pork-loving rubbish.

Did the President Help the Easier Holiday Travel Season this Year?
Am I the only one who didn’t know that the President had opoened up a bunch of military air lanes for commercial flights to make the holiday travel season go more smoothly? Apparently it, and a couple other things he put into play, worked pretty well. I hadn’t heard a thing about it. Is this [...]
What Up With That Headline?
I’m still trying to figure out if this CNN headline is deceptive or just really bad The headline reads, “Official: Bride, groom stopped in Iraq actually terror suspects”. Now, when I saw this, I thought I’d read a story about a couple who were on the way to get married and were arrested for being [...]
For Universal Health Care and Other Platitudes, Amen
At some point, the Democratic candidates are going to be asked about the hypocrisy of using church services as campaign stops while railing against religious folks for wanting their views to be an important part of the nation’s fabric. I wonder how they’d answer. I suspect the real answer is that they don’t take religion [...]
Yes, But Did They Drink Organic Rose-Petal Tea?
Al Gore finally made it to the White House. Fortunately, it was as a guest of the current President, who bestowed the Goracle with a ceremony honoring him and the other 2007 Nobel Prize winners. Not only did the President extend the invitation to Gore personally, but also shared 40 minutes with him in a [...]
"This is the proper expectation of infants"
Interesting stuff from Darleen Click at proteinwisdom. The biggest obstacle to happiness is the refusal of adults to actually grow up. He states that the majority of the patients he sees, people already into their 30’s, have refused to let go of their child-like expectations. The expectation of being taken care of, of having all [...]
"Giving Him the Business"
For years, I’ve talked about the referee who, during an NFL game called a personal foul on a player for “giving him the business”. What made the penalty call so great to me is that the referee – the veteran official Ben Dreith – added some helpful gestures to show what “giving him the business” [...]
Remember that Tom Tancredo Campaign Commercial? Yeah…About That.
Man, that Tom Tancredo! What a xenophobic loon he is! How perspicacious of the left to ridicule him. Right? Fort Huachuca, the nation’s largest intelligence-training center, changed security measures in May after being warned that Islamist terrorists, with the aid of Mexican drug cartels, were planning an attack on the facility. Fort officials changed security [...]
France Says "Neigh" to Global Warming
From John Hawkins comes this story of just how silly the whole global warming panic has gotten: More than 70 French towns have already gone back to the future by introducing horse-drawn carriages to replace petrol- and diesel-powered vehicles for local tasks such as collecting rubbish, street-cleaning and taking children to school. And at least [...]
Let's Stop This Before It Begins
This Times of London article via Drudge leads with a scurrilous rumor that should have remained in the gutter where it belongs. The TIMES of London starts ‘The Ugliest Month’ with a full page photo takeout on Hillary Clinton and her beautiful personal assistant. “Hillary Clinton has been accused of having an affair with Huma [...]
