And if it is not work there are tons of remodeling/rebuilding/maintenance projects backed up at the home ranch I need to tackle. But another series of events has kept my mind and spirit from posting – and that […]

 Some news has been circulating in my circles which has just cemented for me how bad it is in DC with the current liberal Democrat control (or lack of therein) of the Federal Government. I have never seen a more confused or incoherent lot in my life. They put on a facade of understanding […]

The controversial Obama nominee to head the National Intelligence Council has withdrawn his name in the light of a lifetime of radical positions and statements.

No shocker here, except for those crazy souls who think only Rush Limbaugh […]

 This is part one of a three part post title “Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, stuck in the middle with you (America)“. The current economic crisis is the result of a brewing political crisis that has been boiling for decades. We are here today thanks to the hyper-partisans, who […]

 This is part one of a three part post title “Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, stuck in the middle with you (America)”. Today we have a delicious story of irony regarding the GOP infighting and how it is reshaping the conservative movement. David Frum, who led the initial charge against Harriet Miers […]

This is part one of a three part post title “Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, stuck in the middle with you (America)”. False choices. That is what has allowed the hyper-partisans (driven by the greedy media which will not spend one nano-second of air time or one paragraph of writing on the non-controversial) […]
