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 [...]

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 [...]

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 was [...]

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 describe [...]

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 of [...]

My Prop 8 Experience


You know, I think back to a few years ago, and I don’t think it ever crossed my mind that I would be involved, or care much about, a political campaign.  It’s not that I didn’t care about the world, I’ve always had a thing for volunteering and being of service – it was just [...]

Cobwebs and Dust Bunnies


I came in here and found cobwebs and dust bunnies…and no postings since November 2008.  Okay, so I know Republicans have these things called jobs and they sometimes are preoccupied with education, but come on now, can’t they make time to entertain me by blogging???? Ahem…I won’t mention any names, but it starts with a [...]

From 1 of the 48 to the 52


Dear 52,
Thank you for your warm-hearted attempt at bringing the country back together with photos and words of support. I’ve noticed that many of you have booked an event on facebook wanting to treat a Republican to lunch. Well, I have to say that I am rather surprised, so I have my own [...]
