Okay, so driving home yesterday I was listening to 890 AM (WLS).  Unfortunately Roe Conn was on–I swear I just leave it on the station by habit because I think I’m getting a more balanced view from NPR–at least NPR is bias you can be sure of.  In any case, he’s bringing up the liberal… Continue reading

Every video I see of this man just warms the cockle’s of my heart.  At what looks like a public Q/A Christie is confronted by a teacher spouting the party line.  Not only did he disabuse her of her mythology, he went on to show his righteous anger about the head of a New Jersey… Continue reading

For my generation, those moments when those planes full of passengers were deliberately crashed into the World Trade Center towers, the Pentagon, and those heroes who took control over their lives for just long enough to save who knows how many others are our defining moments.  Just as our parents and grandparents remember where they… Continue reading

Well it seems that no crisis will be wasted when it comes to power grabbing by the federal government.  On the heels of the recall of eggs, the FDA says that they need to have more power in order to ‘to put in place these preventive controls and hold companies accountable.’  Right now the FDA… Continue reading

IMO this is one of the funniest skits EVAH!  In it, Tracey’s rival in a dance contest has stolen her knickers and her partner doesn’t know.  The look on the partner’s face at ‘the reveal’ is priceless….. Continue reading

Okay, we know that the folks on the Journolist were creating common memes and spinning stories regarding Obama.  So now the AP is doing the same thing regarding the Ground Zero mosque (which they don’t want to call the Ground Zero mosque.  They are, of course, reinforcing Obama’s backpedal position on the Ground Zero mosque… Continue reading
