Thoughts on the Republican Debate…
This is the first debate I’ve watched this year since it’s the first I caught streaming over the internet. At this point, I essentially agree with this run-down from Red State, as well as Ace’s assesment on Perry’s performance. It wasn’t a knock-out on his part, but he didn’t make any major mistakes. This was basically [...]
On Civic Duty and Paul Ryan…
I haven’t blogged in awhile, and I figured it’s time to dust some cobwebs off. Besides, I feel like there’s something to be said that, although it has been stated before by myself and others in various ways and social media platforms, really requires more than a few hundred characters on facebook and a link. Here’s a question: What [...]
Proms, Lesbians in Tuxedos, and the ACLU
Not sure how many of my 5 readers have heard about this story, but I wanted to comment on it. The gist of it is this: A school district in Mississippi canceled the high school prom because the ACLU filed a lawsuit on behalf of a lesbian student, named Constance McMillen (18 years old). [...]
UN watchdog: Israel a bigger nuclear threat than Iran
Is this a joke or do these guys have no sense of irony? At a joint press conference with Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization chief Ali Akbar Salehi in Tehran, ElBaradei brought Israel under spotlight and said that the Tel Aviv regime has refused to allow inspections into its nuclear installations for 30years, the report said. [...]
Quote of the day
“I’m convinced that today the majority of Americans want what those first Americans wanted: A better life for themselves and their children; a minimum of government authority. Very simply, they want to be left alone in peace and safety to take care of the family by earning an honest dollar and putting away some savings. [...]
Single Moms – Creators of Evil?
I don’t know where to start, except to start by admitting that I am a single mom. I mention this fact only because I was doing my daily reading of news and came across a blog about Ann Coulter’s new book titled “Guilty: Liberal “Victims” and their Assault on America.” The Right Wing News blog [...]
You Can Forget My Taxes…TOO!
Melissa Etheridge, champion of gay rights, declared back in November 2008 that because the people of California voted to keep marriage between a man and a woman, she would no longer pay taxes. Her “reasoning” (I call it emotional blabbering) for not paying taxes was that it made her a “second class citizen” so she [...]
The Truth in AIG Bonus Scandal
I was up late last night and was watching the Glenn Beck show (I like his show more every day). His delivery is a little different – and some might say in your face – but the content is great. Plus, I’m in love with his sarcasm. [NOTE: I actually wrote this yesterday morning, so the [...]
I think I will pinch a baby today
Okay, not really. But if I were to intentionally pinch a baby today…really, really, hard (maybe leave a slight mark), and tomorrow I lash out and pretend to be outraged at my neighbor for spanking his kid, well, I guess that would sort of make me a hypocrite right? Hypocrite – a good word to [...]
Obama Promotes Bad Science
On March 9, 2009, Obama lifted the ban on embryonic stem cell research. President Bush had formerly placed restrictions, and was only funding embryonic stem cell lines produced before August 9, 2001. Once again, Barack Obama reveals his true stance on things – not the moderate BS he spewed day-in-and day-out while on campaign. Worst [...]
