It seems that the loony loopy Luddite left has been reduced to baby talk. No longer able to discuss issues rationally, they must resort to using on of the 3 title words to enter into any discussion or debate. No longer able to engage in rational discourse, the first words out of their mouth is "bush is Hitler" or "conservatives are Nazis" or "this amendment is racist" (Harry Reid). Racist? OK, as Bakerstreet likes to point out, it is cultural supremacist. It is jingois...
Aw, there it is again! The Big but. This time it is none other than that senile congressman from Pennsylvania, John Murtha. In it, he is accusing some US troops of murder. But doing so in a way that not only impugns the troops under investigation, but all the troops. In his own words: "there was no firefight, there was no IED (improvised explosive device) that killed these innocent people. Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them, and they killed ...
Jennifer Wilbanks, the famous 'runaway bride', has apparently been jilted. Some may remember this story of the woman who ran away on her wedding day, faked a kidnapping and caused a massive manhunt for her. She surfaced 3 days later in New Mexico. At the time, she paid a fine for her antics, the cops let her off, and her boyfriend took her back. And I thought he was stupid. Well, apparently not that stupid as he has now broken up with her. John Mason, the jilted ...
Has anyone heard those commercials? We are being inundated with them. How you should do this and that for your family. Some are common sense, few are actually enlightening. But some are just wrong! Wrong? Yes. Sorry. Maybe I am a bad parent. But the latest is "reward your child for good grades". Sorry, I don't buy that. You do not reward for expectations (lets not go into the the differently abled and their incentives - lets stick wi...

The mainstream media seems bent on providing us with regular examples of stupidity. Or the Education system does. Or the DNC and Howard Dean does. Lately I have been running a lot of Deanisms (about 16 so far and climbing with a bullet), Zero Tolerance idiocy (sorry, I lost count of those) and now Smears. The smears are the most interesting, for like Smear 1 (Rathergate), they can easily be avoided by good reporting. But instead the MSM has decided that smearing is ...
This is actually not about my mother. She is a great woman, and I do love her, But she is Wonder Woman, and raised 7 children virtually by herself. She is a great woman. No, this is about my Godmother. My heroine, my inspiration, and for the mentally handicapped (the ones with no physical handicaps parking in the handicap spaces) the reason for your Keying. She is in the hospital. It is not serious as in life and death, but serious for her. She has a tor...
I always loved that line (the title) from Star Trek (Sorry DJ, it was from the original - but a great episode). But this is not about Star Trek. But it fits. Day 3 of the new baby! Yes, that adorable little kitten named Sally. My wife told me 'she sleeps through the night". And I am from the government to help you, the check is in the mail,yada, yada yada! She does not. fortunately, she does sleep to about 4/4:30am and then wants to play. As I have go...

In a not so surprising revelation, it appears that Ron Weddington, a leading advocate of RU-486 - the abortion pill, advised Bill Clinton to legalize it in order to (in his words): "Our survival depends upon our developing a population where everyone contributes," he wrote. "We don't need more cannon fodder. We don't need more parishioners. We don't need more cheap labor. We don't need more babies." This new document is wrong in oh so many ways, but first let us clear up a point of th...
My Wife flew to Dallas to visit her friend and her friends Mother for the weekend. The flight is 'kind of' free (her friend works for American, so American does not get any money, just the feds and the airport which usually amounts to $100-200!) She flies down there 3 or 4 times a year leaving my son and I to have a bachelor weekend, which is fine. But this one was different. First because my son was not down this weekend (it being Mother's day, his mother gets him).&...
In the run up to the 2008 presidential beauty contest, John McCain is getting a lot of press. Some of it has turned nasty as the MSM has decided they do not need to prop up a foil for Bush any longer (since some of them - and only some - realize he cannot run again). And in keeping the high profile that he needs, McCain is doing commencement addresses - what politician is not? McCain has several, but 2 stand out in stark contrast. The New School - headed by his friend and fellow v...
A while back, I wrote an article about the worst Star Trek Character. Today, I am writing about the best guest appearance on Star Trek. I am watching Star Trek Uncut on G4, and the episode is Friday's child. It is not one of my favorites as it is so cookie cutter (the red shirt died in the first 5 minutes), but yet it is. Why? Julie Newmar! yes, she starred in one of the Star Trek Original episodes. Remember that movie with Patrick Swayze? "To Wong Foo, Tha...
