Monday, August 17th, 2009I cannot imagine what it must have been like to have survived the Vietnam War and to then come home and feel unwelcomed in my own country.

Another year older
Sunday, August 16th, 2009Yesterday, Madonna turned 51 years of age. Seems just like yesterday, she was inspiring my teenaged peers to wear rags, rubber bracelets, and assert their inner ho. What?

The latest Obama administration “misstep” involved an idea to have citizens report “fishy” information about ObamaCare to the White House e-mail servers. Obama supporters thought the plan was much ado about nothing, while Obama [...]
