And folks wonder why I blog anonymously

I’ve always said its primarily to protect my husband’s Miliary career. Very true. It’s also out of a sense of need to guard my family, apparently a darn good reason these days as Stacy McCain has had to move his family to ensure their safety after exposing a well-funded lefty radical who happens to be a convicted [...]

A little Friday night fun, Fluke edition

I’ve long been a fan of Remy, and though I prefer his singing voice to the rapping variety, this is fun: A little Mark Steyn to reinforce the idiocy of Sandra Fluke’s demands: All of us are born with the unalienable right to life, liberty and a lifetime supply of premium ribbed silky-smooth, ultrasensitive, spermicidal, lubricant [...]

Does the First Amendment include the right to knowingly lie about military service?

Has it really come to this? From the LA Times: Xavier Alvarez told of playing hockey for the Detroit Red Wings, marrying a Mexican starlet, piloting a helicopter in Vietnam and suffering gunshot wounds while rescuing the American ambassador during the Iran hostage crisis. All were lies. He got into legal trouble, however, when he [...]

Have a party at home, just make sure you don’t talk about God!

What is this, Communist Russia? Via American Spectator, the latest reminder that your home is not your own: An Orange County couple has been ordered to stop holding a Bible study in their home on the grounds that the meeting violates a city ordinance as a “church” and not as a private gathering. Homeowners Chuck [...]

Howard Zinn’s legacy: American students fail history, don’t care

Howard Zinn’s advice to teachers: Don’t obey the rules… you have to play a kind of guerrilla warfare with the establishment in which you try not to be fired… You have to depart from the curriculum… outside the lines that are set for us by the school administration, or the politicians.”  Leftist teachers don’t have [...]

Hey, where’s my waiver?

Maybe we should all ask for one, no? Turn the thousands into millions. Maine is the latest. Yes, as in the state: The federal government Tuesday granted Maine a waiver of a key provision in President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, citing the likelihood that enforcement could destabilize the state’s market for individual health insurance. [...]

A thousand words? Unnecessary.

One works to describe how absolutely wonderful this looks: Hallelujah!  Via Drudge.   From Fox, the whopper of the day courtesy the former Speaker: At her final press conference as House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said, “Deficit reduction has been a high priority for us. It is our mantra, pay-as-you-go.” The numbers tell a different story. [...]

NYE Laundry

Darling pjHusband this morning: What do you want to do to ring in the New Year? Tired Mom of sick toddler: I don’t care as long as it doesn’t involve vomit.  Fever-free would be grand, too. Dare to dream. News from my hung-head coffee perusing for your enjoyment. Fun stuff happening at Potluck.  Just a Conservative [...]

Liberals are, as expected, pissy over Obamacare unconstitutionality

Heh.  Ezra Klein in the WaPo:  District Court Judge Henry E. Hudson, a George W. Bush appointee, has, as expected, ruled the individual mandate unconstitutional. So why are health reformers so unexpectedly pleased? There are two reasons, but first, let’s put this into context. Hudson’s ruling is the third from a district court so far. [...]

Maybe it’s just me, part 2

How can the Senate vote on a bill that’s not even written in final form?  Seriously, y’all.  How hard is it to twist someone’s arm to vote for something sans provision abc only to slip it in later? This is just … dirty. Michelle Malkin has the numbers to call the GOP fence-sitters on this shamnesty for [...]
