Should Auld Acquaintance Be Forgot And Never Brought To…AAAAAAAAAGH!
If you’re like millions of other Americans, you spent New Year’s Eve among family or friends, happily ringing in 2012, wishing each other the very best of a fresh year. Or, you could have been one of the unfortunate folks in Beebe, Arkansas who had to spend the night in fear of getting brained by [...]
“Because I am an American. And I Can”
There are days I am immensely proud of my friends. Today is one of those days. Prompted by the story about which I wrote in this post, Ben Domenech posted a series of tweets that together are as eloquent a defense of the wonder that is America as I’ve ever read. With his permission, I [...]
The Delivery Presents – Ronald Reagan, America, and the Path to Landslide
I rarely say that my shows are big and important, but Episode 97 just might qualify. If I could, I’d make sure every GOP candidate heard the first half of this week’s show.

Pat Austin has a couple thoughts of her own and remembers a pair of soldiers [...]

It has apparently become chic to compare Barack Obama to Ronald Reagan, or at least to compare the Reagan Recovery to the current whatever-the-heck-this-thing-is that the President calls a recovery. Neither Soccer Dad nor Scared Monkeys were particularly amused by the comparison and I recommend their posts to you so you can get the reasoning [...]
BREAKING: Barack Obama’s Veins Flow with the Blood of Muggles
It’s not enough that the tainted blood of Dick Cheney flows through the pure veins of the Obamessiah, but now this? How much more can one man endure? Do Sarah Palin and President Obama have anything in common? You betcha. The Tea Party darling and frequent critic of the President are actually cousins, albeit, 10th [...]
Memorial Day 2010: Thank You
Tomorrow is Memorial Day. I wish I had something wonderful to say here, but I really don’t. When I think of the tens of thousands who spilled their blood so that I and mine didn’t have to spill ours, I am awed. I simply do not have anything adequate to say to express my gratitude. [...]
That’s What You Said
