Life in the smijer household…
… Ok - it’s not always this bad, but I remember times when it was.
One of the things I love most about xkcd is the title text, that you read by passing the mouse over the image.
Obama = Communist
Well. It did not take Boortz long to jump on the Obama = Communist train.
And this is not going to get anything but worse and worse and worse.
As crazy as it sounds I think the Obama = Antichrist meme will grow legs and run through the area of the country I live in. Folks around [...]
It Served Its Purpose…
… as a talking point and distraction. Now, watch as the splurge stops working.
Ok - that was one reason for the decreased violence in the last year (like all the way down to 2006 levels!). Another was the Mehdi cease-fire with U.S. & Iraqi troops, which will expire before too long - [...]

I’m waiting for the day that the term ‘Wiihab’ stops referring to therapy for stroke victims [...]

Baseball great Roger Clemens and former trainer Brian McNamee appeared before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform to give, under oath, two completely different versions of the same story.
