Bad Bad Math

It’s becoming more and more obvious that numbers not adding up doesn’t matter anymore. In this new age of trillion-speak nobody seems to be able to do the addition anyway. And when I say nobody I am speaking of the huddled masses yearning to breathe hope and change as well as the news media that [...]

Comedy And Tragedy

Is anybody keeping score? The day after the new president worked the halls of congress like a veteran standup comedian working at the Improv, the Democrat controlled House of Representatives passed an additional earmark riddled spending bill totaling $410 billion. This move is absolutely beyond comprehension. Having just signed away $787 billion of our great-grandchildren’s [...]

Global Warming Where The Sun Don’t Shine

I hate when the doctor puts on the glove. Any guy over the age of about 30 with a prostate knows exactly what’s coming next. Hold your breath, grab the backside of the examination table and hope that it’s over quickly. It’s never over quick enough and at least I have never even gotten a [...]

Cowards Part 2

So you want to talk about race Mr. Holder? You said we are a nation of cowards. You also said race “.. is an issue we have never been at ease with, and given our nation’s history this is in some ways understandable, and yet, if we are to make progress in this area we [...]

Cowards Part 1

I may be many things. But I am not a coward. I will gladly discuss race with the new Attorney General Eric Holder or anybody else for that matter. I will also gladly discuss the history of America and how we got from where we were to where we are now. Unlike some, I actually [...]

The Victim Syndrome

Regardless of how high they rise, some men simply remain small. Such is the case with the new Attorney General. It seems that regardless of the historic nature of this new administration, regardless of the remarkable racial progress made in America over the last 50 years that led up to this election, there will always [...]

Rahm Rodded

“Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart. And you’ll never walk alone.” So goes the lyrics to the Rogers and Hammerstein classic. So goes the now infamouse dethroned governor of the state is Illinois. The Illinois General Assembly may have sent Big Rod Blagojevich packing but be certain that Rod will not walk [...]

Conversion Aversion

Only $670 million tax dollars, plus expenses, so grandma can see how happy Bob’s wife is now that he uses male enhancement. What a deal! With the signing of the Obama “stimu-lies” package an additional $650 million in taxpayer dollars will be granted to the digital television converter box program. The original $20 million appropriated [...]

Epic Hypocrisy

Ok kids, it’s time for a pop quiz! No looking at your neighbor’s paper. Question: After successfully wrangling a debt laden, pork bloated $780 billion spending package through congress, with literally tens of billions of dollars worth of pet projects and ear marks, how do you switch the focus of the American taxpayer who will [...]

Stimu – Lies

If this is a stimulus package, Popeye is a sissy. Even though I have taken only a summary look at the line item details of the $787 billion bill which Congressional Democrats and the President are falsely avowing to be stimulus, I can honestly say that the Monumental Plaza in Mexico City, the world’s largest [...]
