Rangel-O-Rama!

If Charlie Rangel were any more transparent, he’d be a storefront window at Macy’s…only with less class…a lot less.

I recently posted about news from the New Hampshire political grapevine, in this post I wrote about Jeb Bradley. Jeb was my congressman until Carol Shea-Porter beat him in an upset in 2006. Jeb has decided to run again, he does have a primary opponent, but I am supporting Jeb Bradley. When I made this [...]

A Liberals Journey To the Right

I just hit the big FIVE-O in May this year, so there is a fair amount of remorse in realizing that I was putting my energy in the wrong direction since the days when we use to practice hiding under our desk during the Cuban missile crisis. This coming out has been made possible mostly by events mostly in the last 6 years, [...]

Something to scare you on Halloween

Yes it is that time of the year for the Democrats in Illinois and all over the country to scare you with their tax hikes.   They will be used for all their little pet projects like raising my taxes here in St Clair country to pay for the transit system in Chicago.

Reaching The Community In A Too Fast World

It’s been a while since I last talked about crime, but the random murder of Katherine Ann Olson has jump-started my interest again. To be honest, I got burnt out on crime and very disheartened. Writing about random crime is a difficult thing to do, and you can only do it so much before it [...]

Al Gore’s Tale (with due credit to Geoffrey Chaucer for the original)

You could even buy pardons for the souls of deceased relatives, so as to reduce their time in Purgatory. Al Gore and his friends have come up with a modern equivalent: the “carbon offset” to make up for [...]

The Hillary Spend-O-Meter

Do you ever wonder what Hillary Clinton’s proposals would cost you and me.  Well, look no further, GOP.org has the Hillary Spend-O-Meter   It is up to $763 billion now, that is billion with a “b”.  No wonder she said that the country couldn’t afford her plans.  We need to stop the spending and start getting [...]

One more Halloween hello

This  one is from Jack Pumpkinstein, a pumpkin one of my children carved.  See his stitches?  He fell down and broke his crown and had to be stitched back together with dental floss.  Then he went moldy (but you can’t see that here).  Poor Jack Pumpkinstein!

Halloween Hello from Mandan

Hurray for Grizzly Groundswell!  I’m glad Chad asked me to post here.  Although I never paid much attention to politics and government before, this past year I discovered I have strong feelings concerning some of the things going on around us.  Grizzly Groundswell will be a great outlet for these feelings.
I’ve never chosen any particular political party but I seem [...]
