My apologies for this crude use of those two vile words in yesterday’s post.
When I started blogging I had hoped this blog would be a place for intelligent discourse and thoughtful comments about politics. Yesterday I got into the gutter with the worst that is out there in the blogoshpere.
Of course, this [...]

Just how many times are we to give Obama the benefit of the doubt? Looks like the “lipstick flap” shows us once again, how the Dem’s and Barack’s campaign just don’t get it.
Remember when Barack called that female reporter, Sweetie? Or, how ’bout when . . . he wasn’t really “flipping [...]

John was a complicated man. Tenacious and honest, he was blessed with great intellect. [...]

Life is full of lessons, like the ones we have been witnessing since hearing the vitriolic words from Pastor Wright’s sermons . . . sermons based on hate instead of hope.
