Now in Japan, we have the G-8 summit in our northern island of Hokkaido. Frankly, I am not expecting anything momentous to come out of this. However, I did catch George Bush in a sound bite on the news the other day. Basically he was saying that America will not do anything to reduce CO2 […]

A couple of weeks ago, we, that is the American military, dropped some 40,000 pounds of bombs on the southern outskirts of Baghdad. The result was 12 arrests.
You know, our Democratic candidates keep tippy toeing around the question of the war. I think it is high time we let loose, and devastated the […]

While Cheeseheads revel behind Lambeau Field, eating Johnsonville Brats off the tailgates of their 11 mpg Chevy Tahoe SUVs, there is growing bi-partisan support for upping the federal tax on gasoline as much as a buck a gallon before the start of the NFL’s next season.  You might forget who won the Super Bowl by that time, but you […]

Well, here on Best of the Blogs, there has been a lot of writing about the Presidential candidates and the election. Of course, it is a huge event. However, I decided to bring back that old hoary monster, Iraq, back into the discussion.

The […]

Barack Hussein Obama says we shouldn’t return to the “divisive” rhetoric… well, I don’t know where the likes of him and Shrum and Frum and the rest of them bobbleheads have been cuz we never left the Plains of Divisiveness.  Remember when Lyndon Johnson was around…  Labor Day used to mean something.  Welcome to post […]

James Baker used to say that “cheap beer and dollar gas” was all that average Americans who bother to vote really care about.  In spite of all the angst generated by the “MSM and the blogosphere” current US stocks of oil can last us for about a month and, in spite of that, at-the-pump gas prices […]

Barry Hussein and Mrs Clingon finessed the “save American jobs” question mightily in front of the limp weenie AFL-CIO.  Those two magic words… “we’re global.”  They said, softly.   What would George Meany have said?  Or Jimmy Hoffa?  Or Walter Reuther?   Lane Kirkland watched the jobs evaporate and did nothing.  Perhaps my homie Dennis Kucinich said it […]
