Kerry on leadership

So, "Hannity and Colmes" is showing some of then-Lt. John Kerry's testimony before Congress back on April 22, 1971, and Kerry makes the following statement: We are here to ask, and we're here to ask vehemently: "Where are the leaders of our country?" Where is the leadership? We're here to ask William McNamara, Rostow, Bundy, […]

Miracle on Ice

I saw Kurt Russell's latest flick, "Miracle" yesterday. Let me get the minor nitpick out of the way to start. The opening credits are a montage of images from the 1970s to help give the viewer the sense of what former President Jimmy Carter referred to as our "national malaise." The voiceovers on the credits […]

Get the straitjacket

Former Vice President Al Gore has lost his mind. "He betrayed this country!" Mr. Gore shouted into the microphone at a rally of Tennessee Democrats here in a stuffy hotel ballroom. "He played on our fears. He took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops, an adventure preordained and planned before 9/11 […]

Food for thought

The logic behind the condensed and early primary season was to provide Democrats with a nominee early and head off any wacko (Deanlike) insurgency. The thought (apparently) was that having a nominee with nine months to go before the election would give the Democrat Party plenty of time to do fundraising and really rally behind […]

Bush and Russert

Just finished watching the recording of Sunday's "Meet the Press." Russert, true to form asked some tough questions. Second, Bush is no Alan Keyes when it comes to eloquence and sheer force of personality. If I'm handing out grades, I give Bush a "C". This interview wasn't a deciding factor for any voter. He probably […]

Storytime

I didn't mention it earlier, but David Brooks Saturday column is a hoot. I can just imagine him leaning over and, in a singsong voice, reading it to a small child.

The party of special interests

If you'd been listening to the Democrat presidential hopefuls you'd think that the GOP is bought and paid for by special interests. Well, you'd be wrong. There's more fallout from the infamous Senate Judiciary memos. The fired GOP staffer that I mentioned earlier this week has said that we haven't seen the worst of the […]

Hooters and High School

There's been a little brouhaha in Georgia over a high school senior who's working as a hostess at the local Hooters restaurant. She wears khaki pants and a polo shirt -- not the well-known tight tops and orange shorts that the waitresses wear.The job is part of a work-study program that gives kids school credit […]

Mad Mac Users

I've used Macs. I've used PCs. They're a tool, and nothing more. But there is a small group of Mac users who seem to derive their sense of self from their overpriced, software-limited machines. Case in point: The Overclockers.com website published a barely believable hoax last week detailing the gutting of a brand new and […]
