Remember when New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin said that he wanted to make his city “chocolate” again? Well, having a couple of Tinseltown cream-cheesers moving in is bound to slow the process. Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and kids have bought a home in the French Quarter. But before Nagin gets too upset over the dashing of...

There are times when those who defend us need and deserve a better defense from us in return. It’s the least we can do. This is, once again, one of those times. The police, military and border patrol risk their lives every day, but often the biggest danger they face comes from idiocy within....

Republicans are going to have to motivate the base like no other year in ’08, and the typical wishy-washy game-playing double speaking politicians aren’t going to cut it. After reading a post at Mr. M’s blog which discussed the refreshing straight-talk and ideas that come from Newt Gingrich and John Bolton, I added them...

As one who voted for George W. Bush twice (the first time was an accident — I was aiming for Buchanan) I often sit back and conduct a performance evaluation of sorts — which is the primary right of every voter — and the results are frustratingly perplexing. It’s not that I regret voting...

There’s an old joke by Steven Wright that goes like this: One time I woke up in the middle of the night and I was hungry. I went to the convenience store and noticed it was closed. The sign said “Open 24 hours” and there was a guy locking the door. I said “Hey,...

Today’s column at WorldNetDaily heaps a bit of praise on a wonderful parent: Tigger from DisneyWorld, who handles out-of-control punk kids the way a parent should — which is why he got into trouble. Read about it in “Disney’s Tigger: ‘Parent of the Year’.” We now return you to your regularly scheduled Monday.

We’re just a few days into “the most ethical Congress in history” that was pledged by Democrats, and already there’s something rotten in Denmark — or American Samoa in this case. Frankly, I’m surprised it took this long. When the House passed an increase in the national minimum wage last week, an exemption was...

California Senator Barbara Boxer (D-UMB), perhaps one of the biggest proponents of non-living children in the United States, has actually criticized a woman for her appalling choice to not have kids. This week, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice stared stupid straight in the face and lived to tell about it: Rice appeared before the Senate...

Oh my, this should be interesting: Former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton are part of an initiative to create a new Baptist voice and improve the negative image of Baptists in North America. When Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter are brought in to improve your image, you’ve got serious problems. Oh well, maybe...

“… this nation shall have a new birth of freedom; and that this government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall gather ’round for a hug and a good cry.” – The Gettysburg Address as it would have been delivered had Lincoln been less emotionally cold ********** A few days ago I...

A stroke of genius! Denver’s low oxygen environment will be the perfect compliment to ideas that only make sense while in the throes of brain asphyxia. The city of Denver is right now loading up on the Chivas for Teddy; hiding the china and silverware from Hillary and the wire coat hangers from Boxer; reinforcing the rear bumpers...

There’s a trick you can use when facing a fight you really don’t want to have. You can either fight straight up, run away, or whisper in the ear of the person you’re about to square off with and say something like, “I’ll give you a hundred bucks if we both take a few weak swings...

The Church of Scientology is sponsoring an exhibit at the Missouri state capitol. Show up and you too might meet one of these famous Scientologists. The exhibit is called “The industry of death,” and is about (pick one): A) Al Qaeda, B) Hitler’s Nazi Germany C) The abortion industry D) Psychiatrists Yes indeed, it’s an...

Is the fact that Thomas Jefferson owned a copy of the Quran a case of “religious tolerance,” or “know thy enemy”? it’s looking more and more like the latter. Last week, Muslim Congressman Keith Ellison (Hakim-Mohammad) of Minnesota was sworn into office. The swearing-in caused some controversy because Ellison had his hand placed on a...

The Bangor, Maine government cares deeply about children. That’s why they banned smoking in any car that has a child in it. Don’t worry though, Bangor smokers, if you don’t want to inadvertently break the law written by these caring government officials, or you don’t want to subject your future children to the smoke, your city still has a...

“Down goes punk kid! Down goes punk kid!” It’s clear that somebody needs to start a “Tigger Defense Fund,” because one of our favorite Disney characters deserves solid backing in his time of crisis (though he’s already represented by the Teamsters). Why? Because Tigger does more parenting before 9 a.m. than some parents do their entire...

“Hey Saddam! Good news – an Iraqi court has dropped all charges against you for the murder of thousands of Kurds in the 1980′s! Did you hear that Saddam! … Saddam?” ***** Also, It’s being reported that a U.S. nuclear submarine has collided with a Japanese fishing vessel in the Arabian Sea. After I read this,...

I’d like to take a little time out from talking about global current events and other political goings-on to make one little observation that’s slowly becoming a full-fledged domestic annoyance — It’s becoming painfully obvious that women can’t be friends with each other anymore. Sure there are still some out there, and if you’re a...

Today’s column at WorldNetDaily focuses on concerns that new postal legislation is going to allow the Bush administration open mail without a warrant, for “national security” reasons. I discuss the details in “Angry white mail.” We now return you to your regularly scheduled Monday.
