David Letterman: Top Ten Signs President Bush Doesn’t Care Anymore: "10. Hasn’t taken off his Iron Man costume since Halloween. 9. The menu for the White House Thanksgiving dinner? Corn dogs and Beefaroni. 8. Drew a picture of Garfield on Dick Cheney’s bald head. […]
Hillary may not qualify for cabinet post
0 Comments Published by Bob November 30th, 2008 in Election, News, Current Events, Opinion
Yikes! There is apparently an oft forgotten little clause in the U.S. Constitution (Article One, Section Six) that prohibits senators from taking a civil office if that legislator has ever voted to increase the pay for that job. Could this preclude Hillary from accepting the post of Secretary of State?
There is also some […]
VW Unveils New 69.9 mpg Hybrid
0 Comments Published by Bob November 28th, 2008 in Economy, Environment, Green, OpinionIn spite of the promises by Detroit and the lavish spreads in Popular Mechanics, the flying car I was promised in the July 1957 is really no closer to a reality now than it was then. Sure, there are some one off solutions, but honestly, who can afford to drive or fly something […]

Why are we, the taxpayers, footing Gonzales’s legal bills?
0 Comments Published by Bob November 25th, 2008 in My Embarrassment - My Government, Republican Antics, Current Events, Opinion
The most recent controversy to surround disgraced ex Attorney General stems from a lawsuit filed against him by 8 individuals who applied for, but were refused, positions with DOJ’s Honor Program and Summer Law Intern Program.
A June internal investigation has revealed that certain candidates were excluded because of their liberal-leaning resumes. Whoops! […]
Palin Pardons One While Hundreds go to Slaughter

You really have to wonder what she was thinking. When President George H.W. Bush officially pardoned the first Thanksgiving turkey in 1989, it became a cute little White House tradition and photo op for the President and his family.
A lighthearted moment for the 6 o’clock news normally filled with war and famine. […]

Auto Bailout - What is the Risk to the Taxpayer?
0 Comments Published by Bob November 20th, 2008 in Economy, News, Current Events, Opinion
The ‘Big Three’, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler, have spent billions of dollars in the past few years betting that the American public doesn’t really want fuel efficiency.
That sounds like a harsh statement, but look at the facts:
The Hummer
Any Denali
Chevy Suburban
Ford Expedition
Cadillac Escalade
No electric car
Average MPG by […]

Palin’s Failin’s - Sarah’s Last Chance at DC Now a Vague Memory
0 Comments Published by Bob November 19th, 2008 in Palin's Failin's, Rabid Christian Right, Republican Antics, News, Opinion
God slammed another door shut in Sarah Palin’s face today when incumbent Republican Senator Ted Stevens conceded the race to Democratic contender Mark Begich, thus bringing an end to 40 years of unethical behavior and malfeasance.
Good riddance to another piece of Republican garbage and good riddance to the fragile hopes of EX vice […]
Jay Leno: "These wildfires continuing to burn here in L.A. I haven’t seen anything go up in smoke like this since my 401(k)."

Jay Leno: Today in Chicago, for the first time since the election, John McCain sat down with President-elect Barack Obama. Pretty impressive. Obama agreed to sit down and talk to McCain without any preconditions."
Jay Leno: "In fact, when Sarah Palin heard about McCain meeting with Obama, she accused McCain of palling around with terrorists."

Alaskan Senate Race Still Unresolved
0 Comments Published by Bob November 18th, 2008 in Indecision 2008, My Embarrassment - My Government, Election, Republican Antics, Current Events, News, Opinion
CNN is reporting that the controversial Senate race between convicted Republican incumbent Ted Stevens and Democratic challenger Mark Begich is still up for grabs. At last count, Begich was leading Stevens by a margin of 1,022 votes.
But will that be enough to ensure victory? Apparently, in Alaska there is a 15 day grace […]

Palin’s Press Conference
0 Comments Published by Bob November 13th, 2008 in Palin's Failin's, Rabid Christian Right, Republican Antics, News, Opinion The length of my comments are commensurate with the length of the article which is oddly enough, commensurate with the length of the ‘Press Conference’.
7.5 minutes, 3 questions, and 3 run on sentence answers. That’s my girl, keep opening your mouth.

Palin’s Failin’s - No Senate Seat For Sarah
0 Comments Published by Bob November 13th, 2008 in Palin's Failin's, Freaks, News, Current Events, OpinionI have been telling friends and family that once Ted Stevens was elected, Governor Palin was going to convince him to step down and hold a special election putting herself on the ballot. That would satisfy the pundits who are calling for Ted’s resignation and satisfy the burning yearning in Sarah’s soul to […]
