A Time Of Renewal

Traditionally, we embrace the New Year as a time of renewal – nothing shocking in that. And we often see it that way personally, as well as on a larger scale. That can at times mean a business, a family, even a nation, it seems to me.

If you intend any personal...

Harry Reid: A Man Of Letters

In light of the Blago appointment controversy, some may recall Harry Reid sending a letter to Rush Limbaugh falsely accusing Limbaugh of demeaning our troops. Rush used the foolhardy letter to demean and diminish Reid and raise over $2 Million for our troops on Ebay.

To much fanfare, Reid recently issued another letter,...

Did Blago Actually Have To Appoint Someone?

Interesting that Blago's General Counsel has resigned. Maybe he took a deal from the Feds to save his own butt. But a serious question to the more lawyerly among us.

Blago plans on fighting the current charges, as well as impeachment. If I understand it correctly, Blago's constitutional responsibility in...

Today’s Blago-HaHa

Blago is starting to look like Obama's crazy uncle who stopped in for the Holidays and is now refusing to leave. Let's see – did his Senate appointee Burris raise money for Blago, along with not being able to win in several primaries? Check!

Is lily white Harry Reid poised to...

No Dignity: McKinney Ploughed By Several Israeli Sailors

Disgraced former lawmaker and Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinny was reported to have been observed smoking a cigarette and trying to relax in the boat's lounge after a provocative encounter with several Israeli sailors from a patrol boat. Reports suggest that as McKinney was carrying a cell phone, she was viewed as a...

What’s A Few Billion Dollars, More Or Less?

As for bailouts, another $6 Billion for car companies thanks to Treasury, I guess. Is it even newsworthy at this point?

Arguably one of the worst, though subtle, impacts of today's bailout culture hit me on the head while listening to a non-bailout related news item on the car radio last night. The...

As You May Recall

I don't mean this so much as touting my own horn. I don't claim to be an expert but did take the time to consider several opinions I respect before claiming the kind of shift in the landscape we're going to see from the economic downturn some time...

Ancient And Pathetic Liberal Moron Alert

Oh, just how rich is this? Old morons never die, they just fade away until someone gives them a new soapbox at HuffPo.

The sending of a Christmas greeting by Chip Saltsman to the members of the Republican National Committee that includes a recording of the so-called parody, “Barack the Magic...

Time: You Know Whose Fault Gaza Is, Right?

It would be nice to see the media, including Time, get together and agree on a date certain when it will no longer be justifiable to blame the world's ills on Bush X number of days, or even years after Obama is sworn in.

What might be more difficult to find...

Are You Getting It Yet?

The inclusion of gasoline numbers drives some of this, though not in the numbers below. The numbers are below analyst expectations. My thinking is a re-alignment is taking place, whether we like it, or not.

Increased savings and reduced spending in what is a highly services-based economy like America's is a bad...

Of Worthless Brits And A Warning To Libs

A few thoughts on this insanity – a Brit TV channel televising Imightneedajob's speech. Sorry if they conflict with the tone of what should mostly be a day of joy and peace.

Dorothy Byrne, head of news and current affairs at Channel 4, said that the network had a responsibility to give a...

It’s Merry Christmas, Dammit

No, no complaints. Traditionally, I wrap up Christmas details on Christmas Eve, so I was out and about doing just that today. I always make it a point to say Merry Christmas whenever interacting with someone.

Usually clerk's faces light up a bit, I sense they feel liberated from not...
