…..but in the world of politics, sinners are judged according to party. It appears that those who party hearty on the liberal side are, for the most part, given a pass while the politicians on the conservative side are forced out by demands from both parties. Read more »
A group called Chicagoans for Rio are hoping Brazil gets the 2012 Olympics. As Chicago is already overwhelmed by debt and a lack of funds to meet it, they do not wish to see the city pushed back toward the dark ages. Read more »
The Democrat Senators and Representatives have been avoiding, for the most part the town hall meetings about healthcare. They have been avoiding questions that they either cannot answer or refuse to answer because the people asking the questions have actually read the bill.
They have admitted that they have not read the bill, yet they proclaim to know what is or is not in the bill. The Death Panels supposedly were not in the bill, yet they finally removed the language in the bill that was being “misinterpreted or had the possibility of being implemented” wrong. Read more »
The Democrats picked Harry Reid to deliver a message to America. “It’s better to have a product based on quality and thoughtfulness rather than try to jam something through.”
Are the libs wising up to American public opinion which showed 53% against the health-care bill? Or, is there something sinister lurking here? Read more »
Governor Mark Sanford (R), governor of South Carolina, was MIA for four days and everyone started wondering where he was. Is he hiking the Appalachian Trail? Was he in a remote cabin without electricity or cell phone coverage working on the book he is writing? Read more »
Nancy Pelosi, House Madam, has been a dishonest politician. She promised integrity in the house and turned around and eliminated the house rules allowing the minority party an input in the creation of bills and debate.
Interestingly enough, the Democrats insisted that these rules be enacted to allow fairness when the Republicans acquired the majority in the house years ago. Read more »
A close schoolmate and conservative friend of mine sent me a link and said it was a surprise. It was! A picture was posted that showed a 9th grade production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s H.M.S.Pinafore. (No, I am not publishing that link.)
A flood of 9th grade memories from the great friends, plays and music performances, Latin Christmas serenades and crazy good ol’ fun to the Midnight Skulker comic strip and reenactment (who was the 9th grade Midnight Skulker, anyway?) raced through my mind.
Thanks for the memories, Jan!
Daydreaming on: apple crisp at lunch, the cafeteria people not letting you have just 4 of these desserts instead of lunch, those horrible 2″ pizzas made from mad Englishman muffin halves that you liked because they were tasty. All the crazy (the good kind of crazy) friends and the…………ZAP!!!…… Read more »
Former Pennsylvania RINO Senator (for those liberals in Bezerkeley, this stands for Republican In Name Only), Arlen Specter is reaping what he sowed. After screwing his stupid constituency (they have to be either stupid or dead voters to believe he was really a Republican) he was screwed by the very party he defected to.
Senator Specter changed from Republican to Democrat in what he claimed was based on ideology. In exchange for helping the Democrats to get closer to a guaranteed filibuster-proof Senate, he was promised that he would keep his seniority. After he did the dirty deed, the Democrats went back on their promise. Read more »
With the Coleman race still being decided, the Obama team came up with a plan to snatch another Senate seat from Republicans by offering “in the spirit of bipartisanship” the Secretary of Commerce position to Senator Judd Gregg of New Hampshire.
“But Fred,” you say, “didn’t the Democrat Governor of New Hampshire say he would appoint another Republican to fill that spot?” Yes, my dear readers, he did. Nancy Pelosi also promised bipartisanship with integrity before she changed the house rules to prevent the house minority representatives from taking part in the writing of the bills and eliminated the minority party’s ability to attach amendments to the bills.

Obama’s peeps are like the Clinton peeps that removed all the “W”’s from the keyboards of Whitehouse computers. Well, there is one difference. They are performing their shenanigans before they enter the Whitehouse rather than upon leaving. We will have to wait until 2012 to see what they will do upon their exit, as I predict the liberals will have the worst case of buyer’s remorse ever seen after an election by those who elected a President.
Yes, the tomfoolery (or should I say barryfoolery?) happening right now is atrocious. Read more »
