And? It seems that Ken Mehlman has decided to come out of the closet.  Maybe someone should have told him before he made the statement that his closet door has been open since day one.  Who did he think he was fooling?  The Republicans?  Oh, please. // According to Mr. Mehlman it has taken him [...]

Is President Obama a Muslim? And, Who Cares?

August 20, 2010

// What is all the drama about?  All of a sudden more and more of us are saying we believe that President Barack Hussein Obama is a Muslim, according to recent polls.  In fact, 18% of Americans polled said they believe him to be Muslim.  And, to that I ask, “Who cares?”  Are we afraid [...]

Is Three Blocks Far Enough from Ground Zero for the Mosque in NYC?

August 16, 2010

Watching the news tonight I have come to discover that I am not “main stream America” — whatever that is.  And, if that should be the case, I am thankful. Apparently, two blocks from Ground Zero is too close to the “hallowed ground” for a Mosque to be built.  So, would it be okay to [...]

Midterm elections are just around the corner and the so-called “Progressives” are whining louder than ever.  Please note that although I have been labeled a “Progressive” I still prefer the old moniker of Liberal.  Hell, yes!  I am a tree hugging, oil spill angry, health care happy, cracking the glass ceiling Liberal — and proud [...]

I’m speaking of the Congress, the Senate in particular.  Isn’t it amazing how our representatives and senators all have jobs with great retirement benefits and great health care benefits, yet don’t seem to care if we have either? Of course, we managed to get some health benefits that will phase in over time.  Yet, with [...]

Joe Barton Turned on the American People

June 17, 2010

“I’m ashamed of what happened in the White House yesterday,” Mr. Barton said in his opening statement. “I think it is a tragedy of the first proportion that a private corporation can be subjected to what I would characterize as a shakedown — in this case a $20 billion shakedown.” Of course, the rest of [...]

Alvin Greene: Hoax or Hope for SC’s Future?

June 14, 2010

Surely, I jest!  But, then again I didn’t vote for Alvin Greene.  Imagine him winning the Democratic primary by 100,000 votes!  That is a landslide in South Carolina. The Alvin Greene mystery continues.  What is so hilarious about this whole thing is that no one seems to know anything about him or who supported him.  [...]

Who to Blame for the Oil Spill

June 11, 2010

Well, if we lived in Southpark we would blame it on Canada.  Unfortunately for us we do not live in the cartoon village of Southpark and fortunately for Canada it is one of the few entities that has not had a finger of blame pointed at it.  I’m sure someone is trying to think of [...]

We Drilled and We Killed

Well, we all remember the mantra of the Republican National Convention.  The Repugs were chanting “Drill, Baby, Drill” as if drilling for oil was the only issue at the time.  Needless to say, I guess they had not seen the quarterly stock reports at that time.  They would have known that lack of regulation had [...]

BernieHund has been away for a few weeks, dreaming of spending some time on the beach.  Ah… the best laid plans of dogs and cats… Sometimes the overflow of information just makes the best of us want to run and hide.  To be honest, the fight for healthcare reform took so much of my time [...]
