A Dog’s Tale

Ahhhh, the joy of being a dog. Did you ever try to point at something you wanted your dog to look at? If your dog is anything like mine what they end up looking at is your pointing hand (at least mine does on those rare occasions when she actually takes a break from her [...]

Fearing Sarah

The fear is palpable. Having followed politics for many years I can honestly say that I have never witnessed an individual with absolutely no political power that strikes the level of abject terror into the hearts of liberals like Sarah Palin. Ronald Reagan made liberals jittery so they tried to portray him as a tottering [...]

Chinese Take-Out

To say the least, Obama does not have it “Made in China”. The current trip of Barack Obama to meet with the leaders of China is a perfect illustration of what happens when a man who depends solely on style over substance meets a culture that is not impressed by his panache. China is the [...]

The Audacity of Political Correctness

By definition, to be frank means to be:1: marked by free, forthright, and sincere expression or explanation By definition to be Barney Frank means to be: 1. absolutely none of the above.

Quietly, almost imperceptibly, the news hit the wires that two more United Auto Workers locals overwhelmingly rejected proposed changes to their labor [...]

Equal Justice

John Allen Mohammed has been executed and quite frankly I don’t feel any safer. At the Greensville Correction Facility just outside Richmond Virginia the DC Sniper breathed his last. He was executed after having been convicted of the murder of Dean Meyers, one of the victims in this madman’s killing spree that took ten lives [...]

Liberal Theory vs. Real Enemies

It’s the exception that proves the rule. Lord knows how many times I have heard that idiom. It is used today in almost every imaginable context. Historians credit the Roman philosopher and political theorist/ lawyer Cicero with inventing the proposition. What it was originally meant to infer was that the fact that special exceptions were [...]

Old News

Welcome to Washington where everything old is new again. I was more than a little surprised to see the headlines of an Associated Press report that President Obama had gained support of two critical organizations for his ObamaCare nationalized healthcare bill. I quickly read the story to see who was now throwing their support his [...]

Let’s Pretend

Indulge me for a moment of you will. Let’s pretend that George W Bush is president and in the first year of his term in office he was visited by the head of the NRA 12 times. Do you think the press would make an issue of exactly what the NRA was doing with such [...]
