Global Warming? What Happened to Global Warming?

August 25th, 2008 at 3:12 pm » Comments (0)

Amidst the liberal lovefest coverage emerges a story that is getting moderate play from the Farmer’s Almanac that is tying in to news from the Midwest indicating that the fear mongering MDI* may be full of nothing but hot air themselves.
The FoxNews/AP headline reads, “Farmer’s Almanac Predicts Colder, ‘Catastrophic’ Winter“:
People worried about the high cost [...]



The Adventures of Griff Jenkins (VIDEOS)

August 25th, 2008 at 1:36 pm » Comments Off

Man, oh, man, Fox News’ Griff Jenkins has been making the protest rounds at the DNC in Denver so far. And as usual, Griff likes to mix it up a little with the unwashed masses. I really think he gets a huge kick out of this, proving the preachers of tolerance do not practice what [...]



Let the Jackass Convention Begin

August 25th, 2008 at 7:42 am » Comments (2)

In Denver Colorado today the Democrat National Convention begins. As the Main Stream Media brings the liberal lovefeast into our homes over the next 4 days, we will see the largest gathering of jackasses in the history of this nation live on television. The collective IQs of those gathered is expected to flirt with mental [...]



U.S.A. Men?s Volleyball Takes the Gold (VIDEO)

What an astounding way to end up the games in Beijing. Team U.S.A.’s members played a hard and close game, but in the end they proved their worth against Team Brazil. Such stellar American players as Reid Priddy, Sean Rooney, Lloy Ball, Clay Stanley (the game winner), Tom Hoff, Gabe Gardner, Rich Lambourne, and many [...]

The McCain Ad That PO’d Obamassiah

August 24th, 2008 at 2:08 pm » Comments (0)

The newest McCain ad slamming the Obamassiah takes issue as to why Hillary wasn’t selected. Heck, she wasn’t even vetted.
Here’s what he’s perturbed at:

If we in the Conservative Blogosphere have realized more than anything we know that the more irritated they get and the more strongly they lash out the closer to home you are [...]



Very little to say of these Olympics?

August 24th, 2008 at 10:07 am » Comments Off

..except for this one observation.
The only difference between these Games, and 1936?..was that this time, they were held in China.
My last word on the subject.

The Second American Revolution (VIDEO)

This really doesn’t need any explanatory words on my part. I will only ask one thing of you: Please share this video with others. If they don’t get it, then we are in more trouble than I think we are.

God bless America…and pray for her at the same time.

Is Jill Biden?s Doctorate a Problem for Joe? (VIDEO)

August 23rd, 2008 at 9:57 pm » Comments Off

Dunno, but I’d like for hubby Joe to explain further. Where is the outrage by the feminazis over this? Oh, that’s right… a Democrat said it. Otherwise, they’d be out in full force calling for a Republican’s head on a platter.

But, folks, this is just the beginning of a gaffe machine that will keep [...]



What Does Big Mouth Joe Have to Say About Obama & McCain?

August 23rd, 2008 at 1:53 pm » Comments (0)

Now that the choice has been made, for better or worse Obama has to live with it as we tear his ticket apart. The latest John McCain ad begins to do just that. It’s bad enough that Obama’s choice, no matter how non-committal he intended it to be for as long as possible, is rather [...]

Iraq Pullout Agreement, Surge Success, Bush Numbers Up, Obama Impotant

August 23rd, 2008 at 4:04 am » Comments (0)

The impending nomination of Barack Hussein Obama as the Democrat Nominee for President of the United States may be deflated before it gets started. The Bush Administration and the Iraqi government have an agreement for troop withdrawal out of the major cities of Iraq beginning in June of 2009 with the goal of having all [...]

Georgia on Obama?s Mind

August 23rd, 2008 at 1:57 am » Comments Off

…well that seems to be the gist of it. As Fox News tells it, Joe Biden was not on the extremely short list until recent events of late in Georgia, with aggression by the Russians. But with Obama’s foreign relations creds (or lack thereof), I guess Obama knew he had to bring someone on board [...]



[UPDATED] Get Over Yourself and Announce Already

August 22nd, 2008 at 10:53 pm » Comments (2)

Obama’s narcissistic obsession with being the center of all media attention continues at least until tomorrow when he will finally announce via text message to supporters who he will be picking as his Vice Presidential running mate. I’m of the opinion that Obama is all foreplay and no action and wonder what kind of President [...]



Obama?s Pick - a Prediction

August 22nd, 2008 at 9:25 pm » Comments Off

Just a brief prediction of mine. Obama likes to play the world for a fool, so I don ‘t think it’s going to be Biden, even though that’s what all the media outlets are talking about. They’re saying Hillary wasn’t even VETTED to be VP, so they believe she won’t be chosen.
I wouldn’t be [...]



Obama Losing Dem Leaning Indies

August 22nd, 2008 at 2:53 am » Comments (1)

I had an opportunity to spend some time last night with someone that I don’t always see eye to eye with when it comes to politics. She expressed to Mrs. Gribbit and me that she doesn’t “trust” Barack Obama. She stated to me that she has been watching and waiting for Obama to say anything [...]
