Sarah Palin has become my new hero. While I don’t agree with some of her political positions, I love that she is unapologetically herself. And she is a REAL feminist, representing many of us who don’t toe the line of some definition of what that is. The so-called “progressives,” men and women alike, don’t [...]

I found this charming little piece of video and felt I had to share. I have no comments since the clip speaks for itself.

Sometimes, I just don’t understand New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd. She’s a successful, intelligent, gifted word smith — and gorgeous to boot. Talk about having it all. When she writes about actual issues, she often makes sense, and millions of readers praise her.
When she talks about certain politicians, however, Ms. Dowd’s logic leaves the [...]

I have avoided this moment like the plague but can contain myself no longer – I must actually put ‘pen to paper’ and expend valuable time writing about the vile “McDowd,” as Senator Obama likes to call her.
Her tasteless column in the New York Times Wednesday further demonstrates that ‘the paper of record’ [...]

What’s going to happen in Denver during the Democratic Convention? Well, lots of out-of-towners are going to suffer from altitude sickness. And while it’s likely to hit 100 degrees with an average humidity of 12%, it’s also monsoon season, so the Pray for Rain brigade may luck out:

Obama’s excellent adventures have now ended. He visited the troops in Iraq, Kuwait and Afghanistan, with a little basketball thrown in. He has wowed and wooed “200,000″ people at a free concert in Germany. We had to “jack the bus” up higher as Obama “threw” the injured troops from Ramstein and Landstuhl under the bus [...]

I stopped reading Maureen Dowd and the rest of the New York Times’ misogynists during the primaries. Like many of Hillary’s supporters, I could not stomach their CDS hatefest, and their Kool Aid keggers just added insult to injury. However, now that Himself is the presumptuous Democratic nominee, Ms Dowd has taken to noticing some of the [...]
