For those who haven’t seen Newt’s letter I was saddened to learn that at a time of national trial, when a president-elect is preparing to take office in the midst of the worst financial crisis in over seventy years, that the Republican National Committee is engaged in the sort of negative, attack politics that the […]

Your snort worthy Op-Ed from the New York Times. After spending many, many, many paragraphs describing how bad the conflict between Rwanda and Congo has been, including a slight mention of the genocide in Rwanda (but no mention of how many – 850,000 – nor how the United Nations and Clinton looked the other way), […]

The big question is, is The New York Times publishing the story to protect a Democrat (a label they failed to assign to Blogojevich anywhere in the story), or, just simply a story with no political calculation? Kinda hard to know with the MSM anymore. Legal Hurdle in Blagojevich Case: A Crime, or Just Talk? […]

In an article that reminds me more of an editorial, AP Seth Borenstein makes a mistake When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, global warming was a slow-moving environmental problem that was easy to ignore. Now it is a ticking time bomb that President-elect Barack Obama can’t avoid. Since Clinton’s inauguration, summer Arctic sea ice […]

I’m probably not being fair to CNN for putting this story in the “Um, DUH!” category and making fun of their headline, since I am amazed that they would actually publish the story, but, DUH! The story is from the 5th, but, still relevant Ask most Americans whether they’re in favor of spending taxpayer dollars […]

A special treat this Friday, Surrendie has given way so that the Murtha Monkey can greet us! Murtha Maintains He Was Right to Say Marines ‘Killed Innocent Civilians in Cold Blood’ Although all of the charges have been dropped against all of the Marines – except for one – involved in the killing of Iraqi […]

The big question is, is this story really, really sad, or somewhat humorous, due to what was done? When Baby Jesus disappeared last year from a Nativity scene on the lawn of the Wellington, Fla., community center, village officials didn’t follow a star to locate him. A GPS device mounted inside the life-size ceramic figurine […]

Well, if not, get ready: Science paves way for climate lawsuits People affected by worsening storms, heatwaves and floods could soon be able to sue the oil and power companies they blame for global warming, a leading climate expert has said. Myles Allen, a physicist at Oxford University, said a breakthrough that allows scientists to […]

The Messiah Speaks (must type in capitals when speaking about Him) As gun sales shoot up around the country, President-elect Barack Obama said Sunday that gun-owning Americans do not need to rush out and stock up before he is sworn in next month. “I believe in common-sense gun safety laws, and I believe in the […]
