Chelsea Clinton once again was asked about the Lewinsky affair. When she informed the audience that she did not have sex with that woman, the questioner clarified that he was asking about her father, President Clinton. Chelsea then said "never mind," and attempted to switch the subject to fashion accessories. The questioner then asked if Chelsea had ever purchased any of the Lewinsky handbags. Once again the subject of what is and isn't out of bounds with the former First Daughter has been... Read Full Story
The Clinton-Obama race for the Democratic presidential nomination has provided political pundits with a never-ending stream of tidbits on which to create a story and, in many instances, controversy. Quite often, the controversy appears intentionally mean-spirited. While I am not sure if Mrs. Clinton would be the best choice, I believe she has been examined under the microscope more than Mr. Obama. The most recent media generated hullabaloo was created following Mrs. Clinton’s remark that the... Read Full Story
At a recent rally, Barack Obama said that he wouldn't want his daughter to be punished with the burden of a baby for the mistake of having sex. Rightly so, everyone in the right wing blogosphere was up in arms. Well, most of the "up in arms" part was because they had been arrested for having airport bathroom sex, but some of us were really upset. Babies are a blessing. That is why we on the right do not believe in teaching sex education in schools. Why should be deny young girls the joy of... Read Full Story
Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have both cosponsored a bill, which would restate and clarify that John McCain is eligible to run for President. Those bastards! I was holding out hope, that the Panamanian McCain would be ruled ineligible to run for the highest office in the land by virtue of the fact that he was not born in this country, and was most likely sired by drug mules camping out at an American military base in Panama in 1936. Incidentally, John McCain was born in the same year... Read Full Story
You have to give credit to Hillary Clinton. Her sheer determination can be an inspiration for others to pursue their dreams. Amid all the naysayer suggestions that she pack it in, Mrs. Clinton is holding on to that semi-bright light at the end of the tunnel and trucking along. Barack Obama also continues to impress with his cool demeanor and ability to articulate his message of change. While John McCain certainly comes across as a straight shooter and a very trustworthy person, it is... Read Full Story
It's been a while since I posted anything political. Tonight, I'll change that. Understand that it's late and I'm a bit sleepy. Here's what I'm thinking, since tonight's primary results came in, the primary season is over, and Hillary Clinton has made her "I will be making no decisions tonight" speech: Part one: If Obama chooses to make Hillary his running mate, she will work hard to ensure that they win. The ticket will win. Hillary will take credit for delivering the victory. She will spend... Read Full Story
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) reportedly will not lift the Congressional ban on offshore drilling because it “ would amount to capitulation to Republicans and The White House. ” While that may be good rationale for intransigence if you’re in kindergarten, it hardly serves the best interests of our nation in time of need. Such a statement from the person who is second in the line of succession is appalling and illustrates the kind of thinking that got us into this energy crisis in the... Read Full Story
Last week was Easter, which all Christianity aside is simply an affirmation and rejoicing the days are growing longer. That slowly over the next six weeks, here along the 44th parallel, wrung from the frozen earth, warmth and a brighter more vibrant beauty returns as it did a thousand years before. As it did when Hades released Persephone. A yearly renaissance of green grasses, budding trees and flowers. And on the sandy bluffs above lake Michigan, clouds of whites and pinks...cherry, peach...
