The Men Who Slimed McCain
This is getting way out of hand. Yet another Obama supporter is taking pretty nasty shots at John McCain’s military career and I”m getting really freaking tired of it. Here’s Rand Beers, who we last saw advising John “Global Test” Kerry. Sadly, Sen. McCain was not available during those times, and I say that with [...]
Better Buy a Bigger Car Seat, Parents, or the State Will Get You
This new law raises my hackles. In Maryland, every child riding in a car 8 years old or younger (Unless they weigh more than 65 pounds and are taller than 4’9″) must ride in a car seat. The overt reason the government here gives is the standard “It’s for the children” as if there is [...]
2008 Olympics: Now Mostly Riot-Free!

He makes several good points and I don’t dismiss any [...]
General Clark Did a Dumb, Dumb Thing.
Did Wesley Clark really just hock a giant loogie all over John McCain’s leadership qualifications based on his military record? Seriously, former General Clark, who once ran entirely on his military record, has to have lost his ever-loving mind if he’s willing to say this on national television: I don’t think getting in a fighter [...]
BadWrongFood!
If you were one of the millions of Americans planning on spending part of your Fourth of July outside grilling burgers and dogs, maybe having some fried chicken, drinking beer or soda or sweet tea, and generally enjoying your weekend, Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper just wants you to know that you’re doing it wrong. And [...]
