I wrote an article about 2 months ago trying to stem the tide of those that would take what I say, and distort it. When I write, I mean what I say. However, on occasion, I have had to refine what I said due to the fact that anyone can misspeak and some have called me on that. For that I am thankful I can clarify what I said. However, it goes on. My latest article has people reading into what they want to see, instead of what I say. But I have come to expect that....
A prominent republican politican once said "Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice". He was soundly trashed for that statement. But if we expand on that just a bit, we could also hear him say: Extermism in the pursuit of virtue is no vice. And that latter brings us to the topic dujour. How the ACLU and Castro are making fine bedfellows. This is not an anti ACLU tirade, but it is a warning. In their zealousness to remove all christian symbols from our societ...
Seems some say goodbye, and dont mean it. I am always sorry to see a good man or woman go, even one who has provided flame bait for one side or the other. They will be missed. But when some post 2 messages of good bye, and then dont leave, it seems we have another DQ in the making. For all those who disagree with me, or others, stay and fight! For those just wanting the latest nomination for DQ of the year, go! if you are too cowardly to stay and fight, and s...
I use to be under the impression that it was a dog eat dog world. But dogs are too smart to be canibals! So instead I bring you 2 whacky stories that can only come about because there are real loons out there! I wonder if story #2 was avenging story #1? ************************************* Man Bites Dog, Many Times GAINESVILLE, Fla.

This speaks for itself. But I would add that we learn the lesson of yesterday when reading what the media is doing today. You dont have to be conservative to easily see the media cares nothing for the lives, just for their own warped agenda.

1)Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.....Mark Twain 2) I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. ........WinstonChurchill 3) A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul. ........George Bernard Shaw 4) A liberal is someone who feels a great d...

For those of you who do not know, Virginia is very unique in its politics. First, it is one of only 5 commonwealths. For the majority of you who do not know the difference it is simple. States' governments dictate to Localities. Commonwealths can only suggest. Second, it has the oldest and longest continuing elected government in the USA. Third, it is one of only 2 states that elect their governor in off years. So 2005 we elect a new one (and all the dele...
No, this is not about politics, or even people. It is about Gorillas paying respets to one of their own who died. It is a very touching story and appears to affirm what many scientists have already claimed. Gorrillas are very intelligent, and very caring. They live in a social structure not unlike Humans. And it appears they possess many of the best of human qualities. Or we possess some of their good qualities, as I dont know who came first. I wish all the po...
THE START OF A CHRISTMAS TRADITION One particular Christmas season a long time ago, Santa was getting ready for his annual trip ... but there were problems everywhere. Four of his elves got sick, and the trainee elves did not produce the toys as fast as the regular ones so Santa was beginning to feel the pressure of being behind schedule. Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her Mom was coming to visit. This stressed Santa even more. When he went to harness the reindeer, he found ...

It appears that Anti-freeze (not your mother's sister) has more uses than keeping your car cool. Sceintists have used it to help dogs that were paralized walk again! While not 100% effective, or without some drawbacks, the treatment looks hopeful for both dogs and man! Now if I remember correctly, John Edwards stated during the campaign that if Kerry was Elected, the crippled would walk again! Thanks to foetal stem cell research. Well guess what? Foetal stem cell re...
The link is to an article of some Pro Life Democrats who feel that the Democrat postion is intollerant of their views, and hence has helped to lead to the recent Election Defeats. I find this view insightful and hopeful. Insightful, because even tho the spokesperson for the DNC deny it,there is clear evidence that democrats do not tolerate Pro Life views in their party. Hopeful, in that now that democrats are talking about it, maybe they are learning, and can then reach out to those ...
There is starting to be rampant speculation on the non-story of who will replace Dan Rather after he retires. (Note: Non story as his March retirement was leaked back in September in the Blogosphere.) Now there is talk about either Matt Lauer or Tim Russert. While I dont hold Matt Lauer in high regard, I still think the is a credible if slanted video journalist. Tim Russert comes closest to be unbiased in his video Journalism of any ones I have listed to, but again, why would he t...
