Sean Taylor, R.I.P.

Gone too soon. How tremendously sad that his little daughter will never know a father who loved her.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ONE AND ALL!

2007 BIG TEN CHAMPIONS!

Congratulations to The Ohio State University Buckeyes on another solid season of football. Bear in mind, y'all, that the team was not expected to do nearly as well as it eventually did do - so definitely congratulations (and no small amount of crowing) are in order!

GO BUCKS!

GO BUCKS!!! BEAT MICHIGAN!!!

There is nothing more to be said!

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE PERFIDY OF ATTORNEYS!

I'm just saying.

I'm also (briefly) unemployed!

Blogging will be light.

WHAT'S THE FREQUENCY, DENNIS?

This ineffectual, brainless cretin actually has the gross effrontery to question the MENTAL HEALTH of the President of the United States?

Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich questioned President Bush's Mental health in light of comments he made about a nuclear Iran precipitating World War III. "I seriously believe we have to start asking questions about his Mental health," Kucinich, an Ohio congressman, said in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer's editorial board on Tuesday.

"There's something wrong. He does not seem to understand his words have real impact."

Dennis, you ignorant and pathetic dimwit, have you noticed the tinfoil hat on YOUR head? Did you consider, even for a second, the effect your ill-considered and STUPID words might have on the safety and well-being of the United States? Do you think at all?

George W. Bush is not the one whose mental health bears examination, but MOST Democrats are exhibiting a level of dementia that is truly terrifying!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE OSU BUCKEYES ON A SUPERB SEASON - SO FAR!

Of course, if you understand the Columbus, Ohio mentality, you'd know that if Tressel doesn't win the Michigan game, he'll be booed at the first game of next season, even though the team is 9-0 right now!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE SPAWN OF SATAN!

You can go here to offer your greetings. Remember, be civil. I wished her plummeting poll numbers and a rapid decline into obscurity together with her serial philandering husband.

AW HECK, ONE LAST TIME!

The artist's heart was in the right place (well, the left place actually) but I don't think he did as good a job as he should have. For example, the ankles aren't accurately portrayed. But the complete insanity of the eyes is quite effective and accurate!

YOU BET I DETEST HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON

However, and despite the fact that I have a few of the less flattering ones stored on my hard drive, I’m starting to think that the endless focus on Mrs. Clinton’s beauty – or lack thereof – is small-minded and demeaning to those who make the comparison, more so than to Mrs. Clinton.

I mean, let’s be honest, it’s FUN. She is capable of making some of the most astonishingly unattractive faces and there’s a picture floating through the blogsphere where she clearly is picking her nose! Yuck!

But I think – and of course some will likely disagree with me – that it is what’s in Mrs. Clinton’s brain and heart that deserves our intense focus. I truly don’t care when she looks “rode hard and put up wet” – as she frequently does.

Let’s focus instead on Mrs. Clinton’s core beliefs. These beliefs would, if fully known, cause most sane voters to reject her candidacy. And in the end, preventing Hillary Rodham Clinton from ever again entering the White House – even as a guest – is the most important task to accomplish.

I REALLY DON’T MEAN TO BE RUDE . . .

And, shy as I am, I don’t like to ask pointed questions, but - - -

WHAT IN HELL HAS THE CURRENT CONGRESS ACCOMPLISHED?

The president is not fond of using the power of the veto, and yet that seems to be all he has been forced to do lately. And has the House managed to override ANY of those vetoes? Not so much!

I don’t think this will gain traction for a long while, considering the stranglehold the leftwingnuts have on the mainstream media, but it is entirely possible that the self-proclaimed “Most Powerful Woman in the World”, La Pelosi, is on track to be named the WORST SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE in the history of this nation.

As near as I can tell, about all the current Congress (both sides of the aisle – don’t want to be accused of committing a hate crime after all) is comprised of is dopes, dimwits, traitors and loons!

At this, one of the most DANGEROUS times in our nation’s history, do we really need to be so ill-served?

OVERHEARD ON A D.C. STREET CORNER

I had a very high stress day yesterday - too much work, not enough time - so I slipped out for a very rare indulgence: a cigarette break! And there, standing on the corner of 12th and Pennsylvania Avenue, an attorney from another law firm joined me in observing several beggars pass by, gazing at us hopefully!

Finally, he turned to me and said (I'm not kidding): "On my next vacation I'm going to Calcutta - get away from the beggars!"

FAREWELL (KIND OF) SWEET TIM!

When I moved on 10/5 into my new house, something rare and precious and utterly beloved did NOT move with me. I'm referring to the beloved little bluepoint Siamese named Tim. The reasons included: 1. He is madly in love with Linda; 2. Linda is madly in love with Tim; 3. Zeus is madly in love with Tim; 4. Tim is ecstaticly happy at Linda's house; 5. I knew I could see Tim whenever I wanted and 6. I wasn't sure Tim was safe at my house.

This may have been the most difficult decision I've ever made but since Tim is thriving at Linda's house and is, as mentioned, head-over-heels in love with her (actually HE has HER wrapped around his dainty little paw) and I could not, in good conscience, surrender his best interests to my own selfishness.

Meanwhile, Sam's entire crabby disposition is rapidly evaporating since he has had me all to himself. He has also found himself a lady friend, albeit at a distance. There's a very lovely lady tuxedo cat who traverses my back yard from time to time - and Sam has been known to mewl at the window upon sighting her! I have assured him that she is unaware of and unimpressed by his importunings. Over the weekend, people kept coming by to fix things or bring things over or whatever - Sam was either cordial or completely oblivious to their presence, a major relief to me.

Unpacking is a pain in the fundament. However, it has occurred to me that there actually is NO schedule I need to observe - so I'm doing it one load of laundry and one box per evening - naturally more on weekends. If I could just find the can opener and my spatulas and knives, I'd be a happy woman!

IT HAD TO HAPPEN!

Now that Al Gore has won the Nobel Peace Prize for his global-warming-faux-religious crusade, it was inevitable that some Democrats would begin to urge Mr. Gore to run for the presidency – against Hillary Rodham Clinton. It has been clear for some time that a lot of Dems are not exactly doing backflips over having Mrs. Clinton as a frontrunner! There are a lot of Democrats who don’t like the smell of sulfur any better than we do!

And I wouldn’t count Gore out, folks! In the early 1960s, Richard Nixon had become a national joke, and then he was elected President. I don’t know if Mr. Gore has spent the time cultivating the grassroots functionaries of the Democratic Party to the extent that Mr. Nixon did but he may have done so.

And if I had to choose between eyes-spinning-counterclockwise Albert Gore, Jr. and that despicable Spawn of Satan – I don’t know - who would be the most dangerous? I know – a ticket comprised of both of them! THAT would be more dangerous.

Please, let’s pray that God continues to bless America. I know we’ve probably tried His patience a lot in the past 20 years – but let’s ask for one last kindness from Him even though we probably don’t deserve it.

GREAT ADVICE!

AL GORE WINS NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

Yawn!

The prize means little when you consider that it has also been given to one of the more murderous terrorists of the 20th century (Arafat) and the worst president of the 20th century (Carter).

Put it on your resume guys, if you must, but do not expect me to be impressed because the Nobel Peace Prize is meaningless when it is awarded to people who promote junk science, terror or just plain stupidity!

And speaking of Jimmy Carter - why didn't Wolf Blitzer challenge Carter's lies during their CNN interview? Why am I even asking this stupid question?

OOPS – SHE’S DONE IT AGAIN!

When it comes to manipulating the MSM to her advantage, there is no politician as adept as Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-Hades). Just about two weeks ago, Senator Clinton casually commented that “I like the idea of giving every baby born in America a $5,000 account that will grow over time.” an idea that did not actually originate with Mrs. Clinton, but rather more than 30 years ago with George McGovern who proposed a $1,000 bond to each baby born and was ridiculed by his own party as well as the Republicans.

Very quickly, Senator Clinton’s campaign made it clear that this wasn’t a policy position, but rather that Mrs. Clinton was sending up a trial balloon “idea” – although when she made the remarks during an address to them, the Congressional Black Caucus seemed to like what she had to say.

Some have claimed that this was Mrs. Clinton’s first mistake of the 2008 campaign and that the quick lockdown on the subject showed that her campaign is highly focused and disciplined.

I don’t think it was a mistake at all. I think it was a deliberately provocative remark that accomplished precisely what Senator Clinton wanted accomplished – lots of press attention, both electronic and print media.

Which is why I say that she is the most manipulative and cynical politician extant today.

Dear merciful heavens, how I dislike this corrupt and dishonest crone! And how I fear the damage she could easily cause our beloved nation.

CHRYSLER UNION WALKS OUT!

In one of the more short-sighted, boneheaded, just plain STUPID moves I have seen of late, the union autoworkers have walked off the job and gone on strike against Chrysler Corporation.

Here's a tip:

1. You are already paid quite generously for the work you do.

2. Your benefit package is second to none.

3. American auto makers are teetering on the brink of extinction because they are being priced out of the market by non-union foreign automakers who produce a car of exceptional quality (frequently here in America) without the added expense of paying exhorbitant wages and benefits to union workers.

4. Michigan's economy is already in the dumper and your actions are just making it worse. Of course, even though YOU Mr. Union Worker are to blame for your predicament, naturally being a union man and a liberal asshat, you'll blame it all on President Bush!

I would suggest that you accept whatever package is next offered to you and get your stupid butts back to work! I have NO SYMPATHY whatsoever if your family experiences any deprivation because you brought it on your own, shortsighted selves!

UPDATE: The strike was settled in 7 hours but now the Union is targeting Ford Motor Company, the weakest and most financially perilous of the former "Big Three" automakers.

A special salute to the dimbulb Chrysler union member who said, "I just want to protect what I've earned all these years!" You dopey female - the company goes bankrupt you'll be left with NOTHING WHATSOEVER! Want to rethink your attitude, lady?

BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID!

The woman is evil, the very personification of evil. The United States of America as we have known it all our lives could easily disappear, should this Spawn of Satan be elected to the Presidency. This duplicitous crone must be defeated and shown, at the ballot box, that her kind of sick, twisted, dishonest and despicable politician is no longer electable!

To the Dobsons of this world, I say unto you - do you want to have a tiny tantrum and show everyone what big ones you have? Or would you prefer to ACTUALLY save our nation from the Devil's handmaiden? Or to put it more bluntly - Dobson cut the crap! A third party candidacy is a ludicrous and just plain STUPID idea. Put on your grown-up BVDs and support any Republican candidate who can prevent this degenerate sack of excrement from being elected! THAT is the patriotic thing to do.
