Tea Leaves Predict Trouble for Tea Party

Feb 08, 2010 - 10:02 pm

On the surface it looks great.  Americans getting involved, doing their political homework, insisting that our government get back to its constitutional roots.  Good stuff.

It’s the “party” part of Tea Party that worries me.

Okay, So Brown Won.  REMAIN CALM!

Jan 20, 2010 - 11:01 pm

Pundits both liberal and conservative are hyperventilating as they rush to explain (or explain away) Brown’s big win in Massachusetts. 

Just calm down, people, and remain in your seats.  There’s no need for either side to get carried away at this point.  As usual, extremists - be they Republicans or Democrats - are wrong.

So How’s That “Change” Thing Workin’ For Ya?

Jan 18, 2010 - 11:01 pm

Not so well, if the polls are any indication.  According to Gallup, Obama entered his second year with one of the lowest approval ratings of any president in the last 50 years. 

Geez.

But as much as I disagree with his policies and his direction, the low poll numbers are not entirely his fault.  I even kind of feel sorry for him.

Newt Gingrich for U.S. President?

Uh, no thank you.  And by the way, what are you thinking?

El Al – The Gold Standard of Terror-Free Airlines

Dec 29, 2009 - 01:12 pm

(“El Al” – Hebrew for “to the skies”)

I watched an interview this morning with the former head of El Al air lines.  The topic was, of course, why what happened on Christmas day would never have happened on an Israeli airliner.

What happened was unthinkable – yet another terrorist boards an America-bound plane with explosives on his person. 

If not for a quick-thinking passenger, the terrorists would have succeeded in his goal.  So much for airline security.

Naturally our first order of business should be coming up with a suspect list that is actually COMPLETE and SHARED WITH ALL AGENCIES CONCERNED, and that officials actually READ.  For goodness sake, this terrorist-wanna-be’s dad TOLD US what his son had planned and he STILL got away with it.  No excuse.
