Here’s part of what they wrote: Real heroes don’t go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on about their own heroism…The heroes I knew in […]

Unifying Unity-Uniters Unite for…uh…Unity?

Oh, that Dave Barry: This year there is high drama in the Mile High City as the Democrats gather under their official 2008 convention slogan: “A Unified Party, United in Unity Together As One, Undivided.” Heh. Ayup, that’s about it. I’m just sayin’…

The POW Defense

Well, folks, we may now be down to the final moments of any semblance of a dignified campaign from John McCain, if, in fact, you could call what he’s been doing “clean”. He’s now bringing out the “POW Defense” to rationalize his gaffe of not knowing how many houses he has (seven). “I am grateful for the fact that I […]

McCain: More Hypocrisy? Really? MORE?

McCain: More Hypocrisy? Really? MORE?

Older Than Frankenstein and More Scars Than Dirt

After eight years of being embarrassed nearly every time our president opens his mouth in front of a microphone, isn’t it time we get a president that can string words together into a coherent sentence?

The Art of the Awesome Campaign

Who’s straight-talking whom??? This is positively brilliant. Senator Obama speaks truth to conservatives and Republicans who think it’s funny to mock a very simple thing every single one of us can do that has the potential to save a tremendous amount of petroleum: keeping our car’s and truck’s tires properly inflated. Money line: “It’s like they take pride in being […]
