Last call for 1-17-10



Jack Bauer is a Granddad. Look, I kid you not.

Boy do I feel old.

I mean here he is saving world peace and the best I can do is a bit of political bitching.

Of course he is retired and gets pulled back into it because of an inept boss....

Obamie's cousin.... Need I say more?

The Cowboys were rumoured to have this great football team. They must have missed the flight to Minneapolis.

Look, I was pretty spry when I was 40... But then I didn't have 11 guys trying to pound me into the ground.

Come to think of it, neither did Favre.

The Chargers were rumoured to have this great football team. I don't know what their excuse was.

I think '68 was the last Super Bowl the Jets were in. Joe Willie was drinking single malt and making ridiculous promises... which he kept. If he had taken better care of himself, had the new drugs and medical procedures they have now days I just wonder how good he really would have been.

But I expect he had a bit of fun along the way.

Didn't we all......

Speaking of the dastardly Repubs attempts to seize Swimmer's Senate seat...."SCHULTZ (23:02): I tell you what, if I lived in Massachusetts I'd try to vote 10 times. I don't know if they'd let me or not, but I'd try to. Yeah, that's right. I'd cheat to keep these bastards out. I would. 'Cause that's exactly what they are."

Gee, that's a surprise.

I was watching Fox News today and at one point Juan Williams, Fox's token Leftie, opined this about Americans who oppose the Demos plans to destroy Medicare and take care of Obamie's Union and other toadies...

"They're barking dogs."

Thanks Juan. Now go back to NPR where you are one of the swells making a ton of money..... paid for by American taxpayers.

Woof! Woof!

CNN video from the scene Friday night shows the Belgian team packing up its supplies and leaving with an escort of blue-helmeted U.N. peacekeepers in marked trucks.

Gupta -- assisted by other CNN staffers, security personnel and at least one Haitian nurse who refused to leave -- assessed the needs of the 25 patients, but there was little they could do without supplies.


Makes one proud to not be Belgian, eh?

Okay, okay, that's probably unfair.

So was the earthquake.

Obama quote of the day for 1-17-10



As a nuclear power - as the only nuclear power to have used a nuclear weapon - the United States has a moral responsibility to act.


Only Nixon could have gone to China.

Last call for 1-16-10


Bits and pieces..

Here's an interesting article on the spy who came in from the dust and blew himself up along with 7 of the good folks.

Looks like a sad case of wanting to believe what they wanted to believe. And they paid with their lives.

No, I wasn't around yesterday. Spent most of the day visiting with old friends. There is life outside the blogospehere.

Martha Coakley: Too Big a Risk for Senatoror so says TalkLeft one of the premier far Left blogs. But don't get too excited. The thrust is to just set this one out. But that would help Brown.

Saw an interview this morning on FNC with a Haitian doctor.... who was in NYC worrying over family and friends in Haiti. Of course that's the problem. Haiti is exporting doctors and other talented people while the island country remains controlled by thugs.

I repeat. We can get them propped up but they have to learn to govern themselves. I see nothing that even remotely suggests they are capable of doing that.

It's raining. A nice warm 50 degree rain. Isn't it amazing how a couple of weeks of teenish weather changes ones view of the world?

Gasoline prices continue to rise. Obamie should say something about that, but since that is what he wants, then he won't. Gas prices are up about a buck a gallon over the past year. That's about $30 a week per family sucked out of the economy.

The "experts" are saying, "Double dip recession."

"Hey, dummies! How can something double dip that has never recovered?"

Obamie is going to Mass to campaign for Coakley. If Brown can pull this off the Demos will become desperate. Expect some really weird stuff.

I have listened to all the Derek Dooley stuff I can stand. If I had his number I'd call up and simplify things for him.

"Go 9 and 3 and beat Florida and all will be well. Oh, btw... We don't give a *(*&^& who your Daddy is."

Yeah, I'm willing to wait a year for my next trip to the National Championship game.

And I confess one of the most enjoyable things about the last one was telling an insufferable FSU fan....

"It has been a real pleasure watching us beat your sorry ass."

Sometimes somethings just have to be said to some people.

It's raining. Hard. All those leaves I mulched this week are being beaten into the ground. It just makes me feel so very green. I just know Obamie is proud of me.

Had some frozen okra from the freezer Tuesday night. At WalMart it is $3.33 a pound for the somewhat fresh stuff. My best guess is that I have a couple hundred bucks worth in my freezer. Similar amounts of corn and peas and tomato sauce. Just do the pasta and thaw the sauce... Make a salad and wow.

Be careful on the way home. Turn the lights off on the way out.

Obama quote of the day for 1-16-10


Al Qaeda is still a threat. We cannot pretend somehow that because Barack Hussein Obama got elected as president, suddenly everything is going to be OK.


I sure am glad he told us.

I mean here I was thinking the War On Terror was over.

No, I'm not surprised.



"As an American I am not so shocked that Obama was given the Nobel Peace Prize without any accomplishments to his name, but that America gave him the White House based on the same credentials."

**Newt Gingrich**


Hat tip to Jimmy M!
