Back on November 21st I posted that my sister-in-law had adopted a little Corgi girl in need of a home. Well, she’ll be joining our family down here in south Florida in a couple of weeks. We’re delighted, of course, and look forward to many happy years with her! What happened to my plan to [...]

A few days ago Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius wrote: Oh, really? According to the National Cancer Institute, oral contraceptives may increase the risk of breast, cervical and liver cancer. And not every woman has used or will use birth control. I am an exception to her rule. Meanwhile, House Speaker Boehner and [...]

Halftime in America

  Though Clint curled his ancient lip at claims that the video was political, others have run with it. I rather like Rush’s version:   The brilliant Iowahawk has stepped in with his own interpretation and as usual it’s a thing of beauty… Just a teaser…

Who’s on First?

This is extremely good news for conservatives. But should Newt step aside at this point? I say yes. I like Newt, but he’s not for everyone. My only qualm about Santorum is somewhat petty and would never affect my vote in the general: Rick’s voice is like a sleeping pill for me. Unfortunately, it’s difficult [...]

  Walmart is adopting a nanny state mentality in its stores. They do this because “…we feel like our customers need help right now”. In an effort to care for the consumer with an obviously depleted sense of personal responsibility, Walmart will label foods they believe to be healthy with bright green and white ‘Great [...]

The Queen

Queen Elizabeth II celebrates her Diamond Jubilee today. England’s monarch for 60 years, her life has been given in service to her country. Not one to romanticize royalty, nevertheless I admire this lady. She loves horses and dogs – especially corgis. Princess Elizabeth married the Duke of Edinburgh in 1947. King George VI died on [...]

The little bananas are looking especially good after I took wRitErsbLock’s advice and trimmed away the excess babies that weren’t going to grow, anyway.   I can’t believe I thought these plants dull when Joe gave me cuttings.. Turns out they’re anything but and their color surprises me.   You can’t blame the fauna for [...]

Obama’s War on Catholicism

Video statement from the president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops Timothy M. Dolan. Last Sunday parishioners were read letters from their Bishops about the DHHS mandate. Military chaplains tried to do the same… Tell me again how obama really is a Christian, regardless of his speech or actions. And try to keep [...]

Minimum Wage Not Conservative

February 3, 2012

Mark Levin was extremely frustrated by Romney’s assertion that we need automatic federal minimum wage increases. Or rather, by the fact that Romney doesn’t know any better. From The Right Scoop: He’s a Corporatist, not a Capitalist. Rush said essentially the same thing yesterday, though Levin’s screeching is a bit more entertaining. Rush: Yup.
