Usually, these stories tend to focus on Christmas haters doing Christmas hating things. Not today (well, not yet today, anyhow.) Let’s start with how you can help The Marines have been making children’s Christmas dreams come true for nearly 60 years, but the corps may be seeing fewer smiles this year. With demand up due […]

Say, I wonder if one of the supposed adults at The Atlantic would care to comment on what it is like to work with a full blown bat-shit crazy person? I begged the McCain campaign by private email and in a private meeting to give me something – anything – to kill the story off. […]

Impeachment isn’t good enough. Having fun with impeachment Christmas ornaments isn’t good enough. Nope. Bush in jail is the only thing that will satisfy the insane left. For about 10 minute, probably, but, let’s start with the unhinged article that started it all off: George W. Bush belongs in prison Electing Barack Obama president was […]

Let’s start with the ladies in that atrocious, stomach-churning, eye bleeding color of pink DAY ONE in Tehran What an extraordinary day! After arriving at our hotel in the middle of the night, I woke up early raring to go. Our hotel is in a great location downtown, and I took some time before our […]

Gail Collins tries to out-mo Mo Dowd: Time For Him To Go Thanksgiving is next week, and President Bush could make it a really special holiday by resigning. I could probably stop there and let the Derangement wash over us. Seriously. We have an economy that’s crashing and a vacuum at the top. Bush — who is currently […]
