Ted Lipien, author of “Wojtyla’s Women: How They Shaped the Life of Pope John Paul II and Changed the Catholic Church,†said that Sarah Palin can be described as a New Feminist Christian woman who has followed the most important rules for marriage and families set by the Polish Pontiff. www.tedlipien.com/index.htm September 10, 2008, San […]
* Obama’s “Tangential” Friend, Bill Ayers * Obama has NEVER condemed Ayers on his website, preferring to let Mainstream Media sources do his talking for him–many who take the “it was 40 years ago, what’s the big deal?” Approach * What would Americans say if someone who was 8-years-old on September 11, 2001 ran for […]
A New Website Hides a Tale of Fewer Radio Programs to Tibet, China, Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine FreeMediaOnline.org & Free Media Online Blog, September 10, 2008, San Francisco — Websites tell their tales, and the newly redesigned, flashy website of the U.S. Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) tells a tale of hubris, waste, and reduced access to uncensored radio […]
The US Army is very worried about suicide and injuries in returning veterans. Stress in soldiers, and in returning veterans, is nothing new: During World War II, PTSD was an even more serious problem. In the European Theater, 25 percent of all casualties were serious PTSD cases, compared to about 20 percent today. In the […]
I really used to not like Lyndon Baines Johnson. His handling of the Vietnam War was terrible. He focused on escalation at a time when McNamara and Kennedy had decided on a gradual draw-down of our forces in the area. The one Johnson quote I can remember is “America – she wins her wars.â€Â Of […]
There is something about a group of powerful friends that make it something you want to be a part of. Everyone brings something to the table, everyone has all sorts of money and can do something fantastic, all the people are good looking. It’s a group like that which everyone is dying to be a […]
According to a recent report forty six firms have been named as defendants in a recently filed asbestos related lawsuit, which was filed by the victim of asbestos related disease and his wife. Tommy Davis and his wife Jacqueline claim that the defendants were responsible for Tommy contracting an asbestos related disease. The lawsuit was […]
I live in the suburbs right now. The part I live in is more of the poor part of town, older small houses, ugly condos and lots of new immigrants in the apartment buildings. It’s not the suburbs you see on television. When I go biking on the trail two blocks from my apartment, if […]
Hi there! Occasionally, I get to review great children’s books. Johnny Big Ears, the Feel-Good Friend, written by John Paul Padilla and illustrated by Mike Andrulonis is one of those. All too often the message in books meant for kids is too hidden for young readers to pick up. This story repeats the message in […]
For your reference as you listen, the cast of characters is: Frank Bailey, Governor Palin’s chief of boards and commissions, who is making the phone call. He may remind you of the oily, heavy-handed supervisor in the movie “Office Space.” (“Uh, yeah, if you could take care of that, that would be terrrr-ific.”) Rodney Dial, […]
Talk about putting lipstick on a pig, Sen. Barack Obama is begging former rival Sen. Hillary Clinton and other high-profile female surrogates, such as AZ Gov. Janet Napolitano and KS Gov. Kathleen Sebelius to hit the campaign trail in an effort to temper the fury of women voters who feel scorned when Clinton did not […]
AYE, THERE’S THE RUB MAUREEN DOWD My Fair Veep Now all Sarah Palin has to do is prove that she can be the leader of the free world on a moment’s notice, and field dress Vladimir Putin as adeptly as she can a moose. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/10/opinion/10dowd.html?ref=opinion — “A war is just if there is no alternative, […]
Not in words, or not in English ones anyway, but by being the Austrian-born Governor of California himself. Attempting to explain American politics to a German audience that doesn’t really get it, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has himself, unintentionally, offered the best example of what the current excitement about Sarah Palin’s entry into the 2008 presidential […]
Obama’s sexism is showing, and this time he can’t blame it on his adoring blog minions. The news bias against Hillary Clinton during the primary campaign is well documented. Heck, the NYTimes even quoted Dr. Howard Dean complaining about it: “The media took a very sexist approach to Senator Clinton’s campaign,†Mr. Dean said in […]
