That killer Newsweak story

Now, one of the problems with today’s media is the need to get their story out fast. Otherwise, someone will scoop them, with all the outlets […]

A Frenchman involved in wrong doing? OMG

It just boggles the mind. One of Chirac’s buddies has been implicated in the Oil For Food scandal, that thing the Leftazoids wish would go away so that the US can hand over it’s security and military control to it. A longtime ally of French President Jacques Chirac and a leading British critic of the […]

Bugger off, ACLU

Somehow, the ACLU thinks that a North Carolina law from 1805 is "un-Constitutional." So, they have to get involved. Why? Because one lady lost her job working for the Pender County sheriff’s office. There are some 144,000 unmarried couples living together in North Carolina, and they are all breaking the law – a statute that […]

Wait and see on the Pope?

This really makes me laugh: A quick poll shows Catholics in the United States are open to the new pope, but aren’t ready to decide if they like him or not. Nearly 60 percent of American Catholics who were surveyed told researchers they don’t know enough to have a positive or negative opinion of Pope […]

Can the Indonesians catch a break?

Add another earthquake to the list, that being a 5.4 and a 6.3 in Indonesia. Something that has snuck under the radar is the volcano watch in Indonesia.

Dodgers-Giants

“It’s not true, the Dodgers are not going to win. They will not beat the San Fransisco Giants again. They will not have another miraculous comeback in the 9th. Why is everyone laughing? I’m not kidding.” “Thank you, Bagdad Bob, who was recently hired as Director of Public Relations for the Giants. Now, on to […]
