Gay, straight - I don’t care we’re all people, but somone may want to check into all of this discussion about homosexuality being the result of genetics and not choice (or vice versa) - just ask Bill Richardson, he’s still not sure.
HUMOR ALERT - IF THE FOLLOWING IS OFFENSIVE TO YOU, YOU OBVIOUSLY DON’T LIKE […]

I’ve been steering clear of the recent raft of CPC’s (Competitive Press Conferences) amongst the candidates for their respective party’s nod for the presidential nomination mostly because the answers that the candidates are supplying are the same ones that I’ve heard since this pre-primary period began.
Tonight’s CPC hosted by the AFL-CIO in Chicago for the Democratic candidates […]

The new slogan for the Cleveland CONvention Center.
At least that’s what the Cuyahoga County Commissioners decided to tell county resisdents today in a 2-1 (Dimora and Hagen yes, Jones no) absolutely expected vote after the second of two “public” hearings on the issue of raising the county sales tax by .25% to support a CONvention […]

My wife, Kathy, and I have a running argument about that bulbous lightning rod of public opinion - Michael Moore. I used to be a Moore fan (when I knew less about his methods - get it Moore and Less… ha, ha, ha I slay me), but a few years ago I gave up […]

This is not intended to come across as a slight - I am being very serious here…
I did not know ANYTHING about last night’s forum for Democratic presidential candidates at Howard University broadcast on PBS. The first I learned of it was this morning with a story on the second page in the first […]

Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards picked up a handful of endorsements from powerful Northeast Ohio leaders today. 
Too bad they won’t likely help in the party’s primary race in which Edwards is trailing Hillary Clinton and Barack […]

Ah the sweet smell of failure.
  
This morning the current iteration of the immigration/amnesty bill died in the Senate as the proponents of this compromise legislation failed to earn the 60 votes necessary to invoke cloture on the measure.  What’s more encouraging is that they could not even muster a simple majority.
Today is a victory for the […]

I got home from work late today so my exposure to the guy I love to villify Chris Matthews and his msNBC program Hardball came during its later run in the 7 pm hour.  What I was treated to was nothing less than the second act of an obvious calculated sympathy grab on the part of the John Edwards […]

My wife and I have running disagreement on the U.S. involvement in Iraq. From day one she’s been against it and refused to support it, I was against our reasons for going, but supported the action (and the responsibilities associated with that decision) until my statement yesterday that it was time to go.
My decision […]

Well the emails are already starting to roll in from the folks who think I was being unfair to Elizabeth Edwards in characterizing yesterday’s Hardball estrogen-laced verbal arm wrestling match with Ann Coulter as a stunt.
Here’s my favorite from 3:56 this morning:
How dare you question Elizabeth’s reasons for calling the Hardball program yesterday?  Any mother in […]
