McCain Accepts


I did not watch any of the convention last night. South Carolina was playing Vanderbilt in Nashville and a man has to keep his priorities in order.
But can somebody tell me if this is for real?
Is this some kind of joke? It is easy to get taken in by internet bullshit and I have taken [...]

The Other Chosen One


Sarah did a great job reading the teleprompter and I hear that the speech writers did a good job of making the speech more feminine than masculine. I really can’t tell a masculine speech from a feminine speech so I will have to let others make that case.
But the speech was full of the normal small government, [...]

Tonight is the night


Originally I was not going to watch any of the Republican Convention. But then I had a friend text me last night at about 10:15 PM with a message that read, “now I know what the fiddling sounded like while Rome was burning.” So I turned it on for a while but it is just to painful to [...]

Wetzel rips the right guy


Dan Wetzel just ripped Jacques Rogge a new ass.
And it was a pleasure to read.
I have really enjoyed watching Usain Bolt, gold shoes and all.
I was a little disappointed when he almost started running backwards before he reached the finish line in the 100 meters. I would have liked to have seen a 9.59. But [...]

Finally!!


After America killed dozens of #2’s looks like Pakistan got #3
Look out #4. You’re next.

Russia vs Georgia


Personally I don’t think Georgia has a chance. And I don’t think there is a damn thing we can do to help them.
I couldn’t help but chuckle when I read McCain’s bluster.
Yeah. A war with Russia right now should be just about what the doctor ordered.
“The United States and our allies should continue efforts to [...]

Strategic Oil Reserves


I was listening to Morning Joe this morning and he was aghast at the notion of taking oil out of the strategic oil reserves.
He said, “isn’t that supposed to be done only in times of war?”
I thought it was a slip of the tongue and then he said the same thing later in a quick interview with Evan [...]

Bye Bye Cafe Risque


I noticed over in the comments on Balloon-Juice that the national media had picked up on this story. I just had to laugh.
My place of employment is about 200 yards from the Cafe Risque and it has certainly been considered a thorn in the side of the community for years.
The guy who bought the land and set [...]

Religulous


Bill Maher has a movie coming out soon that addresses the topic of religion.
Watch the trailer
Oh yeah. This is bound to piss off almost everybody in the world.
But Bill just seems to have a way of doing that.

Tough to work at FOX


Or at least I think that is what Laura Ingraham would tell you.
I don’t know who I feel the sorriest for. Her or the people working with her.
