90 Days Later

John Kerry must have something to hide. That’s all I can think of. He still hasn’t signed Form 180, something he promised to do in January of this year.

90 days later, and the only 180 that Kerry has done involves actually signing the form. Yet another flip flop from John “Reporting for [...]

A Day At Ground Zero

Last year, around this time, I was at Ground Zero and managed to catch, on tape, a group of ghouls who were selling books and profiting off of the murder of 3,000 americans in downtown New York City. I posted about the story then, but now that I have a new computer that’s fast [...]

Today’s First Reading

Acts 16:1-10 is the reading today, but I want to focus on 9-10.

And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.

And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the [...]

It’s an interesting conundrum we face…

I don’t argue with the rights of schools to determine what’s disruptive as far as student behavior, nor do I argue with their rights to punish whatever they deem disruptive by removal, etc., of the disruptive student. Frankly, I don’t necessarily believe that political statements on t-shirts are protected inside a school building.

Two Des [...]

Today’s Moment of Zen

I don’t know where I found this, but it cracked me up (If it’s yours, feel free to claim it!)

The mechanical ventilator for Teron Francis was turned off at the [...]

Unintentionally Funny Line of the Day

Man dies after
hit by train

A Manhattan was killed yesterday when he stuck his head in front of a subway car as it pulled into the 96th St. station, police said.

Seven subway cars had already passed Eddie Borges, 39, before he walked toward the edge of the platform and apparently thrust his head toward a southbound [...]

Election of Benedict XVI a ‘moment of grace’

This has to be the best column of its kind I’ve read yet:

Election of Benedict XVI ‘a moment of grace’
Pontiff knows the soul of the world depends on the Church’s faithful witness

Moments after the Holy See announced the election of Pope Benedict XVI last week, a friend of mine quipped that “Some folks will think [...]

Okay, Pro-Abortion Folks…

Most pro-abortion (since I refuse to use euphemisms, I will no longer refer to those folks as “pro-choice”) folks love to call pro-lifers on the carpet and belittle them. Why? We’re told that we cannot reconcile our views, which some of us base in religion, on abortion, with our views on the death [...]

What the president did…

It amazes me that my normally astute readers didn’t catch the brilliant thing the President did. You guys are losing your touch!

In the speech (and the trick is that you had to hear the speech because it isn’t in the written version) the President basically threw down a gauntlet at the Democrats. Not [...]

So far no one noticed

The President did something absolutely brilliant in the press conference last night. He did it brilliantly, subtlely and repeatedly.

Did anyone catch it? Obviously the mainstream media (and even Rush Limbaugh until a caller pointed it out just now but I knew it before that) has missed the hell out of it and every [...]

I Pray This Isn’t True

Munch masterpieces destroyed?
The Munch masterpieces “The Scream” and “Madonna” have been incinerated, according to newspaper Dagbladet, citing criminal sources and a top secret police report.

The paper claimed Thursday that the paintings were destroyed in order to get rid of damning evidence as the police investigation closes in on the culprits behind the robbery.

Investigation leader Iver [...]

Presented Without Comment

ST. LOUIS Apr 28, 2005 — Three yapping, cuddly South American bush dog pups at the Saint Louis Zoo are making fertility history among wild canids, with implications for the rest of the animal world.

Youngsters Mariana, Turi and Sherman, resembling chubby, furry, Chihuahuas, were born in January following a successful, first-of-its-kind vasectomy reversal on the [...]

It would take a miracle…

“I would like to think a miracle would happen and we would pick up five seats this time,” he said during a floor debate over the filibusters of President Bush’s judicial nominees. “I guess miracles never cease.”

It would take a miracle. There is no Democrat agenda, just an anti-Republican agenda. In order to [...]

When is early too early?

It’s starting to get a little ridiculous out there, folks…

A father who protested a pro-homosexual book his 6-year-old son had been given in school spent a night in jail after being arrested by police.

David Parker, 42, confronted officials at Joseph Estabrook School in Lexington, Mass., Wednesday after his son brought home a copy of “Who’s [...]

Sportin’ it baby!

1.5 is installed. Finally.

I know, I’m a bit behind the times, but you know what? I did it myself!

Anyway, the place is a little dusty, so I’m changing things around and everything should be back in order soon. Thanks for your patience!

Rhodes Apologizes for ‘Gunshot Skit’

Randi Rhodes, shrill harpee who is never called one by the “Ann Coulter is a bitch” crowd because she agrees with them, had this to say yesterday:

That didn’t take long

The ACLU is going to be the death of this country. Mark my words.

“No matter how few people it affects, it’s an important bill on the principles,” said Frist, a Tennessee Republican and doctor who is considering seeking his party’s presidential nomination in 2008.

Abortion rights advocates say the bill would cut off an escape [...]

Can dressing down tackle global warming?
22 minutes ago

TOKYO (Reuters) – Japan’s normally strait-laced politicians are getting ready for a tieless look this summer to combat global warming but the idea has left fashion mavens cold.

Government workers and politicians are being encouraged to dress down between June 1 and September 30 so that air conditioner [...]
