2009, No Peaceful Exit


After a week of no news... my first news reunion is with another terrorist attempting to blow up an airplane on Christmas Day! (I thought they were over that, had moved on...something new to kill us) We Americans, have again become so complacent, comfortable and off guard that another watch listed terrorist boarded an airplane bent on it's destruction. (even his own father was concerned for the safety of others he reported his own son to the authorities) Thankfully his "crotch rocket" went pop and only destroyed his virgin finder. What is their fixation with destroying airplanes?

Thankfully the actions of the passengers of AA-93 set the example and these passengers took this guy down. Luckily none were hurt and the plane was able to land safely in spite of this pin head.

Amazingly, I am only hearing of this story yesterday. I have been so preoccupied with Christmas, Facebook, Movies, visitors, and dining out, that I never turned on the news, not once.

Word of the day: appease

I hope President O takes this personally. Extend a hand in peace if they'll unclench their fists... Wake up and smell the coffee. It is hard to reason with the unreasonable. It is just insane. Is our president insane? Regarding terrorism, I think so. Unfortunately, I doubt there is any answer, short of unbridled profiling. Stop all the "Politically Correct" baloney. The Country Club days are over. Just Face it ( no swooshie). Frankly, where are the Muslims in the US denouncing this horrific behavior. Maybe they don't think it's so horrific. Maybe they agree...Maybe this is just considered another "honor killing"

Maybe we need another Manzanar...Internment camps are sounding like they should be considered. No Muslims in or out of the country until this business is resolved. Every Japanese resident was relocated after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Unlike the German "Relocation" camps, there we no mas killings. just a thought. Political correctness is going to hinder more than help.

Merry Christmas!

Word of the day: NOEL


There are many things to ponder...


And many things to be thankful for...

May we all find what we are looking for. Politics aside, let's see if we can ignore our petty differences and make this a thoughtful celebration of all that we have.

I for one am all about a fire in the fireplace, hot cider, homemade cookies and one of the many fun Christmas movies on the tube.

Facebook on the Road

Finally the biggest waste of time, Facebook, has diverted me from the other biggest waste of time, the news. Facebook has neutralized the anger I feel toward our current federal government. There is nothing I can do about it anyway...so why not indulge my new found obsession.

Lack of anger is a good thing.

Hobo and I went to the UCF vs. Rutgers in St. Petersberg, Fl. The game was a bust but our hotel was amazing. Penthouse #4, in a lovely resort on Treasure Island, FL.. How ever when I woke up the next morning I realized, I was going to a show and , would be dropped off at the theater and that I would be unable to harvest my crops in Paradise Island in time... (I had let all my trees stay in fruit, planted expensive and pretty crops) What to do? I asked Hobo to pull up Facebook on his Iphone. All I could get was the posts...no games. Rather than ask him to down load the application... I came to the only logical conclusion...

soOoOoOooooo...
I called my daughter in Woodward, OK. It was 9:00 am her time, but still I woke her from a dead sleep... Since I rarely call her, she thought someone had died. I explained my dilemma, gave her my log-in and password...asked her to take a picture of my Island, harvest my crops and pick up any debris... (forgot to mention my fish in Fishville, oh well)

Big yawn, then she said "ok, you want me to take a photo of the island, harvest your crops aaannnd pick up your trash too?" It's a good thing she also plays. Thanks Molly!


Word of the day: intervention

Over breakfast, my hobo is laughing at this entire scenario. I admitted to him this Facebook thing is getting out of control. Seriously, his response was, that he could 'block' Facebook on our home computer. What no Facebook! When he said that, I could barely catch my breath. Withdrawal began... and Facebook isn't even blocked. I stuttered and stammered... "well not yet." I said, "I'm not ready for it to be blocked." instantly researching in my mind what I would do in the event of... How I could get around the 'block' on our home computer. One of us needs to get a grip. I didn't dare mention that my fish were probably starving in Fishville and I surly had some unhappy Clown Cars to unload in Roller Coaster Kingdom.

But the bottom line is my Paradise Island crops were photographed, and harvested. I am very close to leveling up, again, and possibly rescuing the osterich, two cows two goats and 4 chickens in gift limbo. Oh, I did get to off load a chick but one of my cows disappeared into storage... and well that's another story.

Who Needs Drugs

Hello, my name is CW and I am a facebook addict. It has been 2 minutes since I last pillaged my neighbors in Paradise Island, fertilized crops in Farmville, fed my fish in Fishville and unloaded Clown cars in Roller Coaster Kingdom.

So who needs drugs when we have Facebook.

Word of the day: multi-task

I am worried about the gifts of Cows, Goats and Chickens I can not offload because I need to "level up". My Island is certainly big enough. I am unsure of what I did to deserve a dog. I clean debris and steal (yes, steal) from my neighbors...to get XP (experience points) Because that's how one "level's up" I am at level 11 in Paradise Island..I have 1 cow, 1 goat and 2 chickens waiting in limbo... Oh my mistle toe and onions just ripened...hopefully some of my neighbors will go there and rob me too. Love the photo capability here.

Fishville is another story. When I add fish to my tank, it is almost like being at the dentist office if they have a fish tank. I get hypnotised by their swimming around. but then it's off to Farmville.

Farmville totally baffles me. I have two 'square foot' garden patches. 2 chickens in a hen house, one bull in the barn a cow and 5 calves in the yard, a reindeer, a goat and a myriad of other stuff... But I keep going back to harvest my crops and replant new ones...

There are many games I am some one's neighbor for the sake of numbers of neighbors...but nothing hit me harder than when my daughter informed me she was fighting me...her mother. I hope she wins because Mafia Wars is too complicated and realistic. She said she did win, and that she is going to fight me again so she can win and 'level up'.


But it is Roller Coaster Kingdom that has me in it's grip. Although it takes an eternity to upload, it is my favorite. Like the first love, I keep going back to it. It's like the Bowling Alley where I first learned to bowl. I always bowl my best games there...all other lanes just seem awkward. This game is so elaborate, that it takes minutes to upload, sometimes it just doesn't upload...but once you get there and unload those party buses and clown cars...it's hypnotic... all those little peeps running around and and riding on the rides.... Occasionally one will get stuck and red frownie faces will appear but there is nothing more satisfying than the big yellow smiley faces when they leave. (obviously this crummy photo does my park no justice...)

So, there you have it, my spare time. I also have an Orchid Society newsletter to publish not to mention the annual Christmas WAR report...

Ok, I'm out...

My Head is Spinning

I cannot believe what our government is undermining itself. It is astounding that our elected officials continue to spend and spend non existent money
Word of the day: laughable

Government Transparency (C-SPan?)

  • Unemployment (continues to rise) worthless job summit


  • More bail out money?, (Whose @$$ will they pull it out of, I know...ours)

  • Remember TARP? (repayments will probably be absorbed and added to pork spending)

  • CHINA (They own us... better pick up a Rosetta Stone course in Chinese)

  • Global Warming (suppressed opposing scientific data)

  • Cap & Tax/trade (warrants careful scrutiny, as it would likely increase energy costs and do considerably more economic harm than environmental good.)

  • Vat Tax (value added tax) The Value Added Tax, or 'VAT', in the European Union is a general, broadly based consumption tax assessed on the value added to goods and services.

  • Health Care (I don't know where to go with this one...no one knows what's going on here)

  • Women's health care rationing (California already jumping on it)

  • Lowering the age for Medicare benefits to 55, but making 55 Billion cuts in Medicare. Do the math.

  • Terrorist Trials in NYC, Let's just play into the hands of the terrorists. Unbelievable lack of judgement or common sense.
Our Troops in Afghanistan
  • More troops to Afghanistan (BO finally grew something akin to a spine)
  • ACORN, SEIU
  • Nuclear proliferation in Iran and N. Korea
  • Renewed Violence in Iraq
  • Is Dubai Bankrupt?
Food for thought Bonus!
  • Barbara Walters most interesting people in 2009: Kate Goslin, Glenn Beck, Lady Gaga, Sarah Palin, Prince, Paris & Blanket Jackson, Tyler Perry, Michelle Obama, Adam Lambert, Bret Farve, *Jenny Sanford.

  • Tiger woods (not on the list) How and when will he resume his golfing. I guess only his sponsors really give a diddle...oh wait...Tiger gave a diddle... (*Jenny Sanford should invite Elyn and children to come to South Carolina for a couple of years so they can chill beach side.)

  • Movies I want to see in December: Up In The Air, It's Complicated, When in Rome, Sherlock Holmes and Invictus.
My classes for this semester are finally over. I learned a lot about film making and the history and establishment of our American National Government. I hope I can be inspired to participate more in the upcoming 2010 mid-term election

Dog & Pony Shows


Finally! BO has responded to the request for troops to be sent to Afghanistan. 30K of them. I am torn. I want our troops to be supported, but is this an effort in futility? I wish people would stop comparing it to Viet Nam. I was disappointed that he talked about his exit strategy in the same sentence as the escalation of troops...but on the other hand I am encouraged that he is stepping up the un-manned drones and the operation inside Pakistan.

Many prayers to our soldiers.

Is this really what we signed up for...

"Jobs Summit" Well this is an interesting effort in futility as long as we continue to tax and tax and tax small businesses. And who is going to be in attendance...SEIU and other union leaders, academics, and financial executives and representatives from Google, Yahoo, and Amazon. Who was not invited, the National Chamber of Commerce or small business owners. I would imagine a couple of liberal Congress folk and several other irrelevant @$$ kissers. With all the unemployment and folks not paying any taxes, I guess they'll need any revenue they can generate. which will be none...The Government does not create revenue...they dispose of it.

We only lost 11,000 jobs last month...really, were there that many people employed the month before... time to get real.

Word of the day: trickery


Global Warming research has been" fudged". The debate of Cap & Trade will soon be up for debate in the Senate. But... this 'fudged' research has been suppressed or worse deleted. The research has been compromised. There is nothing more to say. The US has dedicated 2.5 billion to this cause and the congress wants to double that? Someone please jerk some sense into these people. What's this I hear, Gore is canceling appearances... Our president will soon be in Copenhagen for a Global warming International Conference on this subject and then off to collect his Nobel peace prize.

Someone has been pulling the wool over everyone else's eyes.

Party Crashers: Why are 3 secret serves men being put on leave. Did they plan the party? Do they know who is or is not on the list? Denise Rogers planned this state dinner. Where was a representative from her staff? Or where was she for that matter. The secret service and Ms. Reynolds should be put on leave. Denise was enjoying the party, nary a thought to anything glitching up. Denise and ex hubby gave lots of $$ to the BO campaign. She was given this job as a thank you Her Ex also works for the current administration...once again quid pro quo.

Bottom line, they got lucky...both the party crashers and the administration.

Tiger Woods: Elyn, wait out your 2 years, bank your 55 Mil. and then take those babies and go back to Sweden and to your family who love and appreciate you. It'll be hard to look him in the eye again and not wonder.

Pay Now & Pay Later

Health Care Reform.
It is inconceivable to me that there are people out there who believe that as soon as this HCR is rammed through the senate that their health care coverage will miraculously begin ...NO! it will begin in 2014. So we'll all be paying for it now (2010)...for some sort of rationed health care in 2014.

Word of the day: abracadabra

Global Warming...I have pretty much let this laughable issue slide... but we will all pay now and later. (not to be confused with the candy of the same name.) This is no sweet deal. Al Gore and the rest of the stooges should be forced to fess up. With the light of recent 'hacked' information... why? Why should we be taxed for a non existent problem, via Cap & Tax, if there is no evidence of Global Warming. Our Carbon footprint will be felt less than all the debt our administration is forcing on us.


Tuesday is the day Prez. BO will announce his "new" strategic plan for Afghanistan. It's about time, since he's left the troops on the ground in Limbo. The real question is...Can this war be won? In this day of rapid communications, I fear a congressional quagmire.

New Strategy, What's The Rush?!

Well it's just another matter of time. BO will introduce his NEW strategy on Tuesday 12/1/2009, after Thanksgiving (got that turkey pardoned) but just in time for the holiday shopping season. Nearly 4 months after the initial request for more troops to support the ones that are already there. BO is incapable of making a decision.

Because of this indecision the "coalition" is declining to send in more troops also. The war in Afghanistan is a coalition effort, the coalition needs to step up.



and to add insult to injury, two (2) Navy Seals have been accused of abuse in the capture of an important terrorist. He had a swollen lip. (he is alive... which is more than we can say for captured US soldiers, they die) These accused soldiers have requested a military court marshall. (they don't want any part of the civilian court system) What is up with this? Apparently this prisoner was in the hands of the Iraqi's hours before they were turned over to the Navy Seals.

Why is this administration trying to do everything it can do to discourage these American Heroes from their mission. With this kind of baloney it is nearly impossible to address the real problems we face. Please let the military do their job. And BO, get on with the job of solving our debt to China, welfare & Medicare fraud and unemployment.

"Going Rogue" You Go Girl

It boggles my mind that Sarah Palin is still being hammered. It took a lot of guts to resign her Governor's position. I think she is sincere, and that she's just expressing her views outside the "politics as usual" forum. In spite of that, I doubt she is a viable candidate for the republican nomination in 2012, but she certainly has a pile influential people afraid of that possibility. It is almost impossible to find anything positive about her. What is also amazing to me is the amount of women who are maligning her. I hope she sells a gazillion books. Either you like her or you don't, there is no in between.

Word of the day: refreshing

Frivolities aside...
Here is be my list of potential 2012 presidential candidates:

  • Eric Cantor (Congressman VA)
  • Jim DeMint (Senator SC)
  • Mike Huckabee (Former AR Gov.)
  • Bobby Jindal (current LA Gov.)
  • Gary Johnson (former NM Gov.)
  • Tim Pawlenty (current MN Gov.)
  • Mitt Romney (former MA Gov.)
  • Michael Steele (Chairman GOP)
I will do some more investigating of these men (sorry, no women at this point, but I'll keep my eyes and ears on the lookout)

Since my hands are tied and there is nothing else I can do, I am patiently waiting for the 2010 Mid-Term election and preparing for the 2012 election.

I will remain vigilant regarding:
  • Obama/Eric Holder and Terrorists in Civilian Court
  • Obama Delays in support for the troops in Afghanistan
  • Unemployment number higher than reported
  • Health Care Reform, rammed down our throats, slitting the throats of seniors
  • the Economy, our debt to China
  • Cap & Trade/Tax, Global warming baloney
  • AARP working against the seniors
  • ACORN still in the picture, suing film maker that showed them for what they are
  • SEIU bully's out in force in CA

Rationed Care: Throw It Out There


Wouldn't you know, that the possibilities/ramifications of health care rationing would begin with women's health care. First mammograms and now pap smears. What's next, pre-natal care?

For years the research has said, annual pelvic exams and mammograms annually after the age of 40 or earlier if you have a history of Breast Cancer.

Insurance companies will no longer pay for the annual health care if research says it's unnecessary. It's kind of like eye glasses. I can get eye exam every two years. If I want another pay I will have to pay out of pocket. I guess that's ok, I am used to it. I supposed we'll get used to this new women's preventative health care too.

Word of the day: prostate

If Health Care Reform is passed, this is just the beginning.

Seniors are also on the chopping block. $400 billion will likely be cut from Medicare. Are we ready for that?

"As of today, it appears that the American Cancer Society disagrees with these new recommendations, so I can only imagine what insurance companies are going to be saying in the very near future."

Is Barak Obama High?


Help me get a grip. While perusing the newspaper, there in big, bold letters is the headline from an NBC interview:

President Obama tells NBC News that he expects that "the professed Sept. 11 mastermind will be convicted and executed..."

I think this puts new meaning to "fly in the ointment". "Loose lips sink ships" where have we heard that before.

Word of the day: incompetent

This is just food for the team of attorneys who will defend him and 5 others. Is our president as naive and foolish as I believe he is. No...I think he knows exactly what he is doing. I see an acquittal on the horizon.

Defense advantages:
  • All information was gained through torture,(?) water boarding
  • The president predicts guilty verdict before the trial has even begun.
  • Change of Venue
  • Where in the USA to find a fair and impartial jury
  • Speedy trial? (doubtful, let the circus begin)
  • Right to confront witnesses (What witnesses, secret ones?)
  • Physical proof he was the mastermind (that is what KSM said, under duress)
  • Push for a dismissal, get an acquittal
  • Client, KSM, goes free. (to where, somewhere in the USA?)
Prosecution Advantages:
  • Holder is the Prosecutor
  • Appoint a team w/o him to avoid damage to his reputation
  • From what pool will they find a fair and impartial jury
  • What witnesses will they call? (imaginary whitneses)
  • He will wish he had pushed for the Military Tribunal
  • The administration will, again, look like the pile of fools we know them to be.

Al Qaeda Advantages: Fodder for recruitment

Benefit to America: None

Never in the history of the US had a war criminal been prosecuted in a civilian court.

"The court system is simply not built for war criminals, nor should it be. And if he's not a prisoner of war, try telling that to the people we've been bombing for 8 years in Afghanistan. I'm actually surprised that Obama and his administration could be this foolhardy and naive.The most frightening thing is how this underscores their lack of understanding or appreciation of the Constitution."

Some Things Just Occured to me


Ft. Hood Shooter:
Amazingly, I called this one. Now the US investigators are scrambling around like a pile of Keystone Cops trying to find the department, agency or preferably person to blame. All the while still clinging to the 'politically correct' jargon. Please let's call a spade a spade. He was a Muslim on a mission. He is considered a hero by the radical Muslims. Why are no Muslims in the US standing up to condemn this action. No Muslims should be serving in the US military. They don't even stand up in defense of their own countries...why should we suppose they'd stand up anywhere else.


Barak wants Gitmo closed:
It matters not where these prisoners go so long as the prison in Guantanamo, Cuba gets closed. Congress cares not where these terrorists go...(not their backyard) so long as they are not at Gitmo. Politicians are running around like chickens with their heads cut off to make sure none of them go prisons in their state.

9/11 prisoner, KSM, sent to NY City for a civilian trial:
Why is he (khaleed Shaek Mohammed) receiving a civilian trial anyway? Although he has admitted his involvement as the mastermind of the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, It is possible he will be acquitted on a technicality. His statements were garnered under stress (water boarding) Al Queda wants this. Give this trial a big stage and what bigger stage than NYC. This is an embarrassment to the United States and an insult to the families of the victims of 9/11


Torture: US - Water Boarding (prisoner alive) ... Middle East - beheading (prisoner dead) Help me...

Word of the day: senseless

Afghanistan:
No decision until he returns from Asia. Everyday, with every delay the freezing Afghan. winters will be fast upon our unsupported soldiers. Barak appointed McChrystal as his commander in Afghanistan. Why is he dragging his feet regarding the support his man on the ground has requested or even appointing another commander? We lost in Viet Nam because we allowed congress to 2nd guess the commanders in the field. We're going down the same slippery slope. Democrats have no guts. Someone has to stand up and fight for this country.


Barak wanted Health Care reform:
What is in the 2,000 page health care bill just passed by the congress has no relevance as long as something passed. I would bet dollars to doughnuts none of them know what is in the bill. probably each section was written by someone else.


Cap & Trade = Cap and Tax:
Climate censorship?? seriously...Is global warming a pile of baloney. According to the scientists, it is. This is just another Liberal money grab.

Sarah Palin:
Why does the media blow up everything she does and says. The fringe media ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN linger on her every move. She has something special and it just drives them nuts and by slamming her we're supposed to think less of her. Maybe they're worried they might get 'sucker punched' if she decides to re-enter the political forum


Barak Obama: Is his Asian tour.
Hopefully, the final frontier for his continued "US World Apology tour"?

The Crown Jewel of Socialism


The transparent health care bill we will have shoved down our throats is upon us and there is nothing we can do. Our hands are tied. I am thinking, that even the 2010 & 2012 elections will be too late to save us from this madness. Obviously this was their plan all along. More "Democrat Dirty Tricks"
  • Public Option
  • Government paid abortion
  • Death Panels
  • Medicare Cuts
  • Higher taxes

I guess all that's left is a wing and a prayer. We can only hope the infighting with in the Democratic party in the Senate will stall the inevitable. I can almost see our forefathers are rolling over in their graves.

As I stated in my first post in August, I just don't want to get sucker punched, but I think it's going to happen and there is nothing anyone can do about it.

This is the most deplorable behavior I have ever witnessed from the people who are supposed to be looking out for us.

Jobs....where are the jobs? What ever happened to the stimulus money? There are no new jobs, the stimulus money helped save the jobs of the State, Federal and "pubic" employees. The only people who hire the computer analyst, the sales clerk, the insurance salesman, the waiter, the truck driver, the delivery man, the oil field worker, the gas station attendant, the business man, are the private business owners and they are going out of business. I believe the unemployment is over 15%. I see no evidence that it. How many people have exhausted their unemployment benefit?

If anyone out there thinks the economy is getting better, look at the number of foreclosure homes. Check out the numbers of people who are living off their credit cards, because they were laid off. Take a look at the strip malls in the area and see the many empty store fronts.

And then we have the Al Gores of the world pushing for and got the Cap and Trade legislation that will tax everything we purchase and then tax it again...

Hobo and I would like to retire, but I think that will get put off until we drop dead in our office chairs. It grieves me to even push the publish button for this post. I am suffering from a deep sense of hopelessness and helplessness. It is nice to get this frustration down in writing, but I have lost my sense of humor about it because there is no humor in what is about to be thrust upon us. We, with no voice right now. Maybe never. Just look at who we have elected.

I have a bout 40 pages of government to read and it is all about the parties and why we have them...I hope to be reminded but not reassure.

Hypocritic Oath

It seems Congress could care less about what it's constituents think. we will have the public Option only now it is being referred to as the "Consumer Option". I really need to update my politico jargon. the word substitutions make for interesting revelations. ('d like to put it up in a permanent spot where I can continue to add to it as new words & meanings come along)

With the Health Care Reform Bill, we will be paying on it right away but the effects will not take place until 2014. What's up with that?

This bill in it's transparency, is now 1,900 pages long...this will guarantee that no one will read it especially the congressmen.


I only wish Alan Grayson was on the ballot. "If you get sick the Republicans want you to die quickly" This is the interpretation I came to understand was Democratic party solution to our health care issues. I actually think he (Alan Grayson)has gone off the deep end. He thinks this is the type of politician he believes we want. He is despicable. I am embarrassed that he is from Florida. And what is even more pathetic, I think I voted for him...I know I crossed party lines...but this was my feeble attempt at term limits. I think he has a six year term. I have a pit in my stomach. Gads, I hope they never let him address Congress again. He is a loose cannon.

Word of the day: wild card

I cannot believe I am going to say this...
Congratulations to Hilary Clinton for calling a spade a spade. Pakistan knows where these people are holed up and she has told them that we also know they know and that they need to step up to the plate and by doing so maybe they'll save some of their innocents lives.

H1N1 Vaccine, Yay?/Nay?


Has the president received the H1N1 Flu Vaccine?
Have his children or Michelle been vaccinated against the H1N1 Swine Flu?
How about our congressmen or senators, have any of them; been vaccinated against the Swine Flu.
I'm thinkin' no...If he had, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, BBC & Al Jazeera, would have been there to photograph it. (he's boycotting Fox) But for sure they'd do a report on it.

misguided Priorities

What president Obama is prioritizing:

  • deciding Fox News is not a real news outlet
  • Campaigning for Chris Dodd
  • Criticizing Fox News
  • Turning on the Insurance companies
  • Intimidating the National Chamber of Commerce
  • Refusing time with Fox News
  • On his way to Virginia to campaign for another loser
  • Declaring H1N1 Swine Flu a national emergency
  • Health Care Reform, "public option" or "trigger to public option"
  • Pick up Nobel Prize

Word of the day: doublecross

What President Obama is Ignoring:

  • Afghanistan (two months and still no action)
  • Economy, more banks failing (let'em fail)
  • Over 10% unemployment (higher if you just think about it, going up if you continue to think about it)
  • Nuclear Iran & N. Korea
  • Pick up his Nobel Prize
  • Please continue to Ignore Gitmo

Buyer Beware

Sarah Palin has written a book Going Rogue.

Some left wingnut has written a parody of her book and the cover is very similar...Read carefully, the title is Going Rouge...

I have to admit I went through 200 of 283 comics before I could find one positive...very disconcerting. Based on the comics I found, here is a little history of Sarah Palin as we got to know her. I have always wanted to do a little comic pictorial essay...


Sarah Palin single handled, pulls the GOP out of the grave. She put a spark in an otherwise pathetic election.

A mother of 5 can do anything!Word of the day: gumption

She was the darling of the party...

She put the liberals in their place...no place...

Then...something happened...Hmmm

And the media went on a trash digging frenzy...

The N.O.W. who tout their promotion of women, women's rights, Girls are Great, Go women... etc...totally turned on her. I guess they really only promote women who think just like them.


Nothing like the pot calling the kettle black.

Even many republican women turned into a bunch of two faced, self righteous hags.


Not sure what to make of this, but things were getting ugly and I liked the face of the poor confused GOP


Name it and it was Sarah Palin's doing... or undoing.

She didn't let the media baloney take away her smile. During this cruel and difficult time she did what she signed on to do.

Finally it cam down to the meat of the issue. Her wardrobe, and how much the GOP paid for it. Does anyone out there really think she had a minute to shop for a wardrobe? And I personally think this was the subtle way the McCain campaign insiders were able to begin the ultimate erosion. Not thinking that maybe they were also eroding their candidates chances for a win...Clothes...pathetic



At this point the GOP needed to get a grip, stand by their choice of candidate and respect his choice for running mate.


Consequently there were some sour grapes. I really think McCain was clueless at this point.

Fortunately the chickens are coming home to roost for David Letterman. Families should be off limits. Apparently He must have forgotten to read the memo.

But even today, people are afraid for her. I think she sank her own 2012 ship, but it is amazing to me the weight her observations carry.

I just loved this cartoon...and the detail in the little jester business...it's a nice caricature of her and with all the Czars BO has appointed...this just made sense when I saw it.

I am interested in reading this book...I hope she holds nothing back

And there ya have it...by golly. I hope she sells a gazillion copies of her book and that the person who published the parody, spent a lot of money on it and is stuck with cases of them.

Remember if you plan to purchase her book, be careful of the title and get the correct version.
