We have better soldiers than politicians. Then again, we have better everything than we have politicians. . . .
-- Glenn Reynolds
Anyone who knows me well, knows I have a philosophy that most things happen for a reason, most of the time the reason remains "behind the curtain" but for a reason none the less. This past week we had to take our second oldest child (if you can call a 17 year old a child) to the hospital to...
This week the wreckage of Steve Faucet's plane was found, over a year after he flew off and was not heard from again. The anguish of the loss, the "not knowing" must be a very heavy burden, but now his family has a better idea of what may have happened and hopefully that helps. Now imagine...
Ok, I have two simple words for the pirates. Fire One Source: FOXNews.com - Somali Pirates Vow 'Fight to the Death' Over Ukrainian Ship - International News | News of the World | Middle East News | Europe News...
So, almost 60% of the people answering the poll think that the surge has done nothing in Iraq? Well first off, Iraq is better than when Saddam and his sons ran the joint. Second off even Harry (ain't done squat for two years) Reid has confessed that the surge has worked. So what do we have here? A bunch...
From the ContraCostaTimes.com Before we hit the Bates Psycho ward, let's take a look at the name of the "paper" that this story comes from. Contra Costa Times. If you look up Contra on Wikipedia one of the definitions involves Nicaragua, and the rebel group there that was fighting against the...
From Golf.com I very much enjoy playing golf, and as a follower of the game I also enjoy watching golf. The thing that makes or breaks a broadcast (you listening NFL Network) is the commentary provided by the sportscasters. If you have good people they can take a weak tournament and make it like The...

From CNN I have a very soft spot for the men and women in our military. It comes from knowing the kind of work and the amount of hours they do work. Add to that the pay and benefits that most receive, and how long many of these fine people spend away from home, family and friends. On top of all of that...
From AccessNorthGA.com and the Associated Press At first I thought this was another Carrey/Daniels sequel. But no, it is just another roll out of the predictible left Glockenspiel Road Show . This particular installment was brought to us by Jimmy "See my staff run when my book comes out" Carter...
From Fox News The Whiner of the House, Nancy Pelosi, (D-Leftest Coast), is very mad. So mad in fact that if she had a ball, she might be on the verge of taking it and going home. It seems that when the President said he welcomes disagreement in a time of war, she took that as, she can say anything in...
From CNN Harry Reid, (D-Nevada), has some profoundly incorrect thoughts on Iraq. "This war is a serious situation. It involves the worst foreign policy mistake in the history of this country," Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nevada, told CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer." The article...
Hooray! With absolute sincerity, although as you read on you might think I'm not being sincere. Today the Brit's rescued three Christian peace activists in Iraq. I'm happy for the three men and their families. Another man from this group was not as lucky, Tom Fox was found murdered two weeks...
