  • Obama's crazy immigration reforms

    March 12, 2010

    • I've been watching the news lately, while being here in China. Yesterday, I heard that the President of United States Barrack Obama allowed his aunt from Kenya to stay illegally in the country. Then, I heard that that Barrack Obama is going to give amnesty to 12 million illegal immigrants who are living in United States. I was really shocked about it because I am asking myself what in the world ...
  • Taking on the Wing Nuts

    March 6, 2010

    •  For more than a year, the Wing Nuts have been on a mission and it’s been effective: attack relentlessly Obama and the Dems and do it in the most extreme and ugliest of terms. The point locus for the calumny is toxic right wing radio and television, Limbaugh, Hannity, Michael Savage, Mark Levin, et. al. Unless the Dems strike back, they will be overwhelmed even as John Kerry was sunk by the ...
  • Words, words, words...

    February 26, 2010

    • ” Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” Funny how things can “change” in an instant; or, a century or two.  Especially Words and what they mean. Polonius: –What do you read, my lord. Hamlet: Words, words, words. Polonius: What is the matter, my lord? Hamlet: Between who? Polonius: I mean, the matter that you read, my lord. Hamlet: Slanders, sir, ...
  • A note to Sarah Palin

    February 9, 2010

    • The industrious Sarah Palin, having thankfully receded somewhat from front pages everywhere, has been all over cyberspace and the airwaves recently with her Tea Party appearances and her new Fox News job. There is cause for alarm. Palin is a grand master -- or perhaps mistress -- of the art of Us v Them politics. Some of us who still hang onto the hope for an Us and Them America were dismayed by ...
  • A Teachable Moment

    January 24, 2010

    • Okay, it's late, nearly midnight, on a Saturday night and probably not the best time to write about current events, but something has been plaguing me ever since Scott Brown pulled off what many describe as a major coup for the Republicans by winning Sen. Ted Kennedy's seat in Massachusetts. What I want to know is why it's impossible to get the centerfold image of Brown, the one where he poses ...
  • Barack Obama's second year - More 153 & 411 moments

    January 21, 2010

    • "Obama has cut the remembering-what-we-don't-like-about-Democrats stage of this process down from two to four years to about 10 months. Folks, I'm convinced that if we all work really hard, we can get it down to three months." - Ann Coulter, from "That Old Obama Magic Is Back" 1-20-2010 - Image Credit: Organizing For America Barack Obama's second year - More 153 & 411 ...
  • A speedbump down the ruination road of Carter's Second Term

    January 20, 2010

    •   All the leftist talking heads are saying double down on health care after Scott Brown won Massachusetts.  We now know that many moderate Democrats aren’t going to listen to that advice and are considering picking up their chips before they lose it all. It’s time for the Democrats to choose if they are going to listen to pundits or the people. Congressmen in the fly over states ...
  • Costco Republicans?

    November 6, 2009

    • After this week's big losses for Democrats in Virginia and New Jersey, one can't help but speculate about the impact the far right, bible belt conservatives will have on the landscape that is the Republican Party over the next eight years. Some see civil war already in the works with faux moderates being tackled by the nouveau neo-conservative movement. The John Birch Society, which has been ...
