In the spirit of Silly Putty (Kent Williams) and rock salt (Olympia Snowe), I think it’s time for Harry Reid to be shown the full measure of respect that he deserves.

Chicago lost the 2016 Summer Olympic Games to Rio de Janeiro.  Unless they are going to adjust the dates, the Summer games will occur during Winter in Brazil.  Wikipedia (yeah, I know, not the most authoritative source) says the 2016 games will occur from August 5 through 21.  August in the Southern hemisphere (that’s where Brazil is for you recent public school graduates) is like February | Read More »

I’ve read many of the posts and comments about the Gates incident but I don’t think I’ve seen any analyzing one aspect of what The One said: “But I think it’s fair to say, No. 1, any of us would be pretty angry” Just who are the “us” he is talking about?  Is he referring to free citizens in the United States of America?  If so, it’s sort of | Read More »

Article here: http://www.bizjournals.com/dayton/stories/2009/07/06/daily1.html So, years of bankruptcy precedent is again turned on its head but that’s not what this post is about.  I’m wondering if anybody else has noticed something about who one of the new owner’s of GM will be: Besides the U.S. government, the Canadian government and health care trust for the United Auto Workers What strikes me is this:  If we’re going to | Read More »

In a syndicated column appearing in my local fishwrap today, Amy Goodman laments “The price of lax enforcement”:   George Tiller did not have to die. He was assassinated at his church Sunday in Wichita, Kan., targeted for legally performing abortions.  His death may have been prevented simply through enforcement of existing laws.   His alleged killer was seen vandalizing a Kansas City clinic, Aid | Read More »

The following YouTube video (link below) from the Cardinal Newman Society features Fr. John Corapi of the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity (SOLT).  Fr. Corapi is one of the most dynamic speakers the Catholic Church has ever known and you’ll never get anything watered-down or sugar coated from him.  He’s seen it all from growing up in upstate New York to | Read More »

The University of Notre Dame has invited the former junior senator from the State of Illinois to be its 2009 commencement speaker.  The invitation has provoked and angered faithful Catholics all over the country.  As of Noon today, over 122,000 people have signed an online petition sponsored by the Cardinal Newman Society*.  The petition can be found at http://notredamescandal.com/.  Lest there be any doubt that | Read More »

Saw a bumper sticker yesterday.  White lettering on a blue background.  It said, “RED SUCKS”.  Made me feel so Hopey Changey.  Pay attention 48.  52 really has absolutely no use for your friendship, good will, charity, compassion, kindness, patriotism, civic spirit, pride in America, any good, old-fashioned Red quality you want to name.  “RED SUCKS” is what they truly think.  God help us.

On Tuesday or Wednesday of this past week I heard something on the radio that was so amazing that I almost couldn’t believe my ears.   During an ABC radio news break the female personality (Cheri Preston, I think) identified the college basketball tournament that started this weekend as the “NAACP tournament”.  Sigmund Freud would have been proud.  I can just imagine if Rush or Hannity | Read More »

So, Obama disses Gordon Brown last week and this week brings renewed IRA violence in Northern Ireland:  http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,507964,00.html The key point from the article: “The attacks were the first killings of British security forces in Northern Ireland since 1998.” Now, I know that correlation doesn’t always prove causation but isn’t this timing just a little too coincidental?  Just saying . . . P. S. - - I’m | Read More »

If Speaker Pelosi had any real honest belief that she was able to call herself an ardent practicing Catholic while supporting abortion rights, that belief must now go where all other delusions go to die.  She may be able to ignore the numerous documents and statements of the Church on the evils of abortion throughout the centuries; she cannot ignore Pope Benedict’s statement today (02-18-09), | Read More »

I’m not sure exactly how or even if this would work but it’s rattling around in my brain so I have to share it. The House Republicans need to band together and introduce legislation to repeal the Mother Of All Pork section by section and line item by line item.  Further, this needs to be done on a regular schedule.  My first thought was to | Read More »

I have read various comments that Holder is not qualified to be the AG.  He clearly has the education, training and experience so I would not maintain that he isn’t qualified.  It’s what he has done with that education, training and experience that renders him unfit to be Attorney General. Andrew McCarthy at NRO appears to have unearthed the smoking gun, shown by the piece you will find here: | Read More »

how about for the next act we start sending Secretary of the Treasury Designate Tim Geithner referrrals from Tax Masters: http://www.txmstr.com/ (or some other similar type of business).  I just heard their ad on Dennis Miller and was inspired by Erick’s Silly Putty ™ bit to suggest this along the same lines.  So, does anyone have an address, preferrably e-mail, for Mr. Geithner? Of course, if doing | Read More »
