Voting “present” on climate treaty
Can you imagine the furor in the media if you substituted “President Obama” with “President [insert any Republican name in this space]” in this paragraph from the New York Times? President Obama and other world leaders have decided to put off the difficult task of reaching a climate change agreement at a global climate conference […]
The PTSD foregone conclusion
One of our readers, Jerry, sends along a link to an ABC article about Post Tramatic Stress Disorder; Now, I’m all in favor of anything that puts “the spotlight” on PTSD in our military community, but there’s absolutely no evidence that the Fort Hood incident had anything to do with PTSD, but ABC is bound […]
Confusing headline
With a headline like this, you know you have to read the story; Who lets these terrorists name themselves just anything they want?

Of course, the Fox News correspondent, Laura Ingle, points out that the 40 year old man who was disgruntled over “the government” had a son in the military. No links yet. Apparently, everyone has a built-in excuse to […]

Pvt Joseph Foster is yet another soldier reporting that Nidal Hasan shouted “Allah Akbar” when he began […]

If no one noticed, my perfect record of not being able to call elections remains intact with Hoffman’s loss in NY23. Sorry, Doug, I […]
A world of change in 287 days
Pulitzer Prize winning columnist for the Washington Post, Eugene Robinson took time away from playing with his Barack and Michelle action figures to pen the most ridiculous column ever to grace the pages of the Post entitled “A world of change in 287 days“. You’re going to have to click over and read Robinson’s fantasies […]
Scozzafava to NY23: Vote for the establishment
Yeah, I kinda figured that Dede would be that sort of prick who is vindictive rather than the bigger person. Apparently, her decision to drop out of the New York’s 23rd District race was selfish – if she couldn’t win, she didn’t want to lose – so she decided to throw her voters to Bill […]
