"The Roots of Obama's Rage"

A book exists with this actual title. Hey, you know my politics. I’m sure I’d disagree with its thesis. That stated, however, I share the author’s concerns with regards to the title, for if there is a quality that singularly defines Barack Obama more than any other, it is rage. Spit-soaked, vein-bursting rage.

In My Ongoing Effort to Spend Eternity in Hell

I am overwhelmed by a feeling of sadness these days whenever I hear a Whitney Houston song. “What a loss,” I quietly say to myself, shaking my head and dwelling as I always do on the fact that if I had been the one to find the body, maybe I could have taken all the drugs in the room and fled before anyone noticed.

The Law is The Law!!!!

From now on, whenever people I know who call illegal immigrants “illegals,” get a speeding ticket, I’m going to start calling them “illegals.”

George Herbert Walker Bush's War Story

Enlisting in the Navy the day after Pearl Harbor, George HW Bush was piloting a bomber in 1944 when intense anti-aircraft fire caused his plane to catch fire. Despite a burning airplane, Bush managed to complete his attack, bombing his target and scoring several damaging hits. With his aircraft still on fire, the young pilot made sure all others aboard bailed out before he, too, finally jumped. He then waited in the shark-inhabited waters of the Pacific for hours in an inflated raft, before being rescued by the submarine USS Finback.

In later years, he would suffer charges of being a “wimp,” contrasted against the mighty Ronald Reagan, who spent the entire war stateside making several Hollywood movies.

Holy Smoke

If ever someone invokes the phrase “God helps those who help themselves” as basis for denying you help, remind them that this phrase is found nowhere in the bible.
