African American Rep. Danny Davis of Illinois was offered Obama’s Senate seat a week ago by Blagojevich’s attorney

Blagojevich was obviously intent on playing out the race card to his advantage, knowing white people would keep their mouths shut and black people would cheer on the appointment. Thereby making it appear as if he were making a good appointment. Unless we’re supposed to suspend belief that it’s a coincidence three African American men [...]

Clintons Leading Times Square New Year’s Eve Ball Drop

Bush is a lame, ducking president. Obama is off playing golf in Hawaii (we can catch him by cell if we need him). Meanwhile, Billary appear/s to be running the country. http://mespace.wordpress.comMore on Hillary ClintonRead the Article at HuffingtonPost

Obama’s Stimulus Plan May Boost Your Paycheck (NOT)

Unfortunately, this economy is way beyond a stimulus plan. People will take the extra money and save it, not spend it. And there is something twisted about an economy that depends on buying and selling “crap” to return to good health. It would be a bigger value if Americans actually wanted to buy say American [...]

Russia Amends Constitution, Extends Presidential Terms

Russia is utterly chomping at the bit to get back to the glory days of being considered a rival to the United States. Now they see weakness to exploit to get back on the map. The US military needs to wrap up the Iraq mission and start preparing for the second cold war. Otherwise, what [...]

Ricky Gervais as the lead in Ghost Town? As Perez Hilton would say, how do I say this delicately?

As Caroline Kennedy would say, you know, I can’t imagine anything scarier than a dentist with bad teeth! Nothing’s worse, you know, than showing up for your dental appointment and seeing crooked yellow teeth. You know?  It’s like a morbidly obese personal trainer. But I do love Ricky so I’ll give him the benefit of [...]

I made it in the Top 2 WordPress blogs of the day!

A few months ago I started this blog as a place to just store my comments to news articles. Then I realized people were finding this blog, and commenting. Then I went with it. My goal was to crack the Top 100 WordPress blogs by the year 1010. As W. Bush would say, Mission Accomplished! [...]

It’s obvious why Blagojevich picked Burris. But why did Burris accept?

UPDATE: Former Illinois junior Senator Obama takes a break from golfing to issue this statement:
CHICAGO, Illinois (CNN) — President-elect Barack Obama said Tuesday that it is disappointing that Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich ignored warnings from Senate Democrats about appointing a successor to his Senate seat.
Back to my original posting.
Blagojevich is doing a couple things. He’s [...]

This may be a ridiculous question, but why hasn’t the Space Shuttle been phased out?

This craft was designed in the 1970s. The first mission was in 1981. A lot has changed in technology since then, and we don’t have something safer and better yet? The Space Shuttle is now borderline “vintage.”
MIAMI, Florida (CNN) — A NASA report on the last minutes of Space Shuttle Columbia cited problems with [...]

Who is running this country? Obama always seems to be on vacation when there’s a world hot spot, Bush is and was never a strong leader

Can’t these two guys sit down in a room, come up with a plan, call a news conference, and put a stance out there? We have a really lame “lame duck president” and one on the way in whose attitude is “Call me if you need me. There’s only one president at a time.” I’m [...]
