The Strange Case of Brett Kimberlin, Domestic Terrorist
Published on 2012-05-25 22:14:00
There's a very strange story, series of stories, actually, going around the web about Brett Kimberlin. I hadn't really heard of him, or paid any attention to him if I did, until last Monday, when I got a message from a fellow blogger that Robert Stacy McCain had fled his house for an undisclosed location and took his family with him for their own safety. Wow. That's a bit drastic, no? So I started reading about this guy Kimberlin, and my first thought was, Why isn't this guy still in jail? And s [..] > read more

So, in the Obama ad pictured above, the statement being made is entirely factual, and perhaps one of the biggest lies you'll hear all year.

Finally saw the Avengers today. Long story short: worth the price of admission. And when I say, "long story", my primary complaint with the movie is that it was too long. At 143 minutes, it takes a cast iron butt to last to the very last scene after the credits. (More about that later.) The action sequences are top notch.

The Bamboozler-in-Chief Has Loopholes in His Credibility
Published on 2012-04-02 07:00:00
I created the new Democrat mascot "hippocrat" for times such as these. Obama and the Democrats, up to and including my own dear brother (Bless his heart!) are talking about "subsidies" to the oil companies and doing away with them, as if that would do anything other than exacerbate the high price of gasoline and further slow an already weakened economy. First, a look at the weaselly word the Democrats use to describe the activity: "subsidize". The word subsidy has the connotation of one party gi [..] > read more

Wasserman Schultz's Bold Election Year Gambit
Published on 2012-04-01 07:26:00
Man, I never saw this coming!WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) Democrat National Committee Chairperson, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, in a rare, and some might say gutsy, bipartisan election year move, has called upon both party officials and rank and file Democrats to apologize to former President George W. Bush.“We were wrong to blame President Bush for high gasoline prices during his two terms in office”, according to a press release from Wasserman Schultz. “Over the last two and a half years, it has [..] > read more

"Don't Bring Skittles® to a Gunfight"
Published on 2012-03-29 23:08:00
Too soon? Given the media circus surrounding this shooting, it's hard to tell. Did you know that there were 14,748 murders in the U S in 2010? The vast majority were either blacks killing blacks or whites killing whites. Whether or not the Martin shooting was justifiable in any way shape or form, the carnival like atmosphere that has surrounded the Trayvon Martin/ George Zimmerman incident is highly regrettable.First, the reporting is abysmal. How many times were we shown a five year old photo [..] > read more

Happy Fourth Blogiversary!

Nine days after I started, I added the widget from Sitemeter, which started off at about three hits a day (and one of them was me!).Today, nearly 6000 posts, 382,000 hits from 198 countries, (which, I think is every country on the planet), averaging around six hundred hits a day.

Does the word "duplicitous" come to mind? Does it give you warm fuzzy feelings for your president when he implies to the leader of a foreign country that he cannot do what he would like to do to our country because it might cost him the election? Obama has been governing against the will of the people ever since his fanny hit the big chair in the Oval Office. He does not deserve a second term. Period.Whatever he is planning to do as a lame duck president will not be in the best long term intere [..] > read more
