Kurt Warner, Champion.

 
For those of us who love football, today is the day of days, Super Bowl Sunday, and although my team ended it’s run in the Divisional Playoffs, this afternoon you will find me in front of the TV pulling for the Arizona Cardinals (I can’t believe I just wrote that) and in particular, Kurt Warner.

Obama’s Ominous Beginning.

With an unexpectedly brash display of arrogance and naïveté, President Obama has brought to an end the shortest honeymoon in White House history. Unlike Kennedy’s famous Hundred Days, when he cultivated his relationship with his rivals and saw the most important of his political initiatives pass with relative ease, Mr. Obama’s opening political act lasted [...]

Day 2 and Obama’s Problems Keep Growing

Well, we’re two days into Mr. Obama’s ascendancy to the throne and already the administration and the Democratic Party are in disarray.  Let’s take a look at in Mr. O’s Neighborhood.
 
The Press Office is, for all intents and purposes, non-functional. The staff can’t figure out how to log-in to their computers or program the phones [...]

Thoughts on the Inauguration

Having watched today’s coronation, er…I mean inauguration – which was, I must say, the best comedy on TV since Andy Griffith – I cannot let it pass without a few observations.
¨      Aretha Franklin. Holy Smokes, I haven’t heard a noise like that since the neighbor’s poodle had a litter of St. Bernard puppies.  In all [...]

“The people have spoken…the bastards.”

“The people have spoken…the bastards.”
We have Dick Tuck, following a lost bid for the California State Senate to thank for this timely and eloquent statement. Unfortunately, it is more appropriate today than it ever was in 1964.  The American voters, most of whom know next to nothing of what their chosen candidate stands for, [...]

Vince Young Keeps Tradition in Titans Win

Although he failed to make the trip to Cincinnati with his teammates to watch the Titans dismantle the Bengals 24-7, Vince Young stayed in “game mode” as he watched the game with his friends at the Happy Dayz Learning Center in Franklin. After watching Kerry Collins lead the team in their first scoring drive, VY [...]

It doesn’t get any better than this.

I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a “community organizer,” except that you have actual responsibilities..
We tend to prefer candidates who don’t talk about us one way in Scranton and another way in San Francisco.
I’m not going to Washington to seek their good opinion – I’m going to Washington to serve the people [...]

Palin Pounces on Barak’s Bounce

If anyone doubts the extraordinary wisdom and political one-upmanship of McCain’s selection of Gov. Sarah Palin (AK), all they need to do is watch the visceral reaction of the media, democrats in general and the DahliBama in particular. Perhaps most telling, was the reaction of Bob Beckel, the democrat political genius, who can’t produce a [...]

“O” no…It’s Joe!!

The talking heads all say that the choice of a running mate is the first “presidential” decision a candidate makes when seeking the White House, Obama better hope that’s not true. Obviously, by selecting Joe Biden, he allowed his insecurity about the Clinton’s to trump his electability. Don’t get me wrong, as a conservative, I’m [...]

Skip Caray – Humor…

 
“The bases are loaded again, and I wish I was, too.”
 
The call Skip used until Ted Turner made him quit saying it: “We’ve come to the bottom of another fifth.”
 
Braves up by 16. Biggio (late in the game) singles. “Sit tight, folks. a long one here and suddenly we’re in a 14 run game.”
In the [...]
