Apropos of nothing political…. In some societies, dogs are considered perfectly acceptable food. Mine (and, I\’m reasonably certain yours) are not among them. But here\’s a way to serve an “edible dog” that takes about 2 minutes to put together and will make any table a major conversation piece. No need to explain how it\’s done, you can see the answer...
Is Hillary Clinton\’s nomination by the Democrat Party inevitable? Excerpted from S. A. Miller\’s article for the Washington Times: A top Democratic moneyman recruited by Hillary Rodham Clinton\’s presidential campaign has put fundraising activities on hold, saying he can\’t do it with a clear conscience because the former secretary of state has too many unanswered...
Excerpted from Lucas Jackson\’s article at reuters.com: The Clinton Foundation\’s acting chief executive admitted on Sunday that the charity had made mistakes on how it listed government donors on its tax returns and said it was working to make sure it does not happen in the future. The non-profit foundation and its list of donors have been under intense scrutiny in recent weeks...
As I am sure you know, there was a disastrous earthquake in Nepal yesterday. As I write this, an estimated 2,200 are dead, with the number sure to rise far beyond this already-horrific number. Countless people are homeless and countless buildings are either destroyed or teetering on compromised foundations and uninhabitable. My observation: If this had happened not in Nepal, but...
So how is ObamaCare doing these days? Well, let\’s check in with California – a showcase for this wonderful program that allows us to keep our doctors if we like them, keep our insurance policies if we like them, and saves every family an average of $2,500 a year – to find out. Excerpted from an editorial in the Orange County Register: After two previous...
Here is the latest installment of our series, “What we lose if we lose Israel”: Excerpted from Joel Leyden\’s article for israelnewsagency.com: Jerusalem, Israel – April 25, 2015 … Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, this evening following the lethal earthquake in Nepal and nearby areas, held an assessment of the situation, via telephone, with Israel...
Excerpted from an article at Agence France Presse, via breitbart.com: Protesters smashed police cars and shop windows in downtown Baltimore on Saturday when the biggest demonstration over the death of a young African-American man in police custody turned violent.

Is it just me, or do you also find it incredibly unseemly for Bill Clinton\’s wife to make a speech, as Hillary Clinton did yesterday, in which she rails about “the continuing scourge of sexual assault”? Isn\’t that a little like Bernie Madoff\’s wife railing about “the continuing scourge of stock market fraud”? Just asking….
Anyone who reads this blog certainly knows that I stand 100% in favor of gay rights and 100% in support of gay marriage. I feel this way because I believe in freedom, and could never accept the persecution and destruction of anyone for living their own lives or for having sincere, personally held beliefs. So why would I, or any other reasonable person, support the persecution and...
Remember Brian Williams? A few months ago he was riding high as the anchor of NBC Nightly News, the highest-rated network news show. Then it came out that he had made up several stories about his past and embellished others. So NBC, not wanting to damage its reputation for credibility (there are those who are now asking “what credibility would that be?”) suspended him for...
Today\’s quote comes to us from outgoing Attorney General, the disgraceful toady and Obama sock-puppet eric holder. This is what he had to say about his 6 years in that position – and I swear I am not making it up: “This department is restored. It\’s restored to what it always was and certainly…and what it always must be. Free of politicization, focused on the...
The Clinton Foundation scandal deepens by the day. It has quickly moved ahead of the other Clinton scandals, and – at least as of now – appears to be the most significant threat of them all to Hillary Clinton\’s candidacy. The latest information, from Sarah Westwood\’s article for the Washington Examiner, is that: Twenty-two of the 37...
Apropos of nothing political…. We spoke to our dear friend Sharon, who used to live near us but, for the past 20 years, has lived in North Carolina. She told us that a friend – also originally from the Northeast – was approached by someone selling raffle tickets for a worthy cause and agreed to buy a number of them. The friend asked what the prizes...
Suppose you are an actor. Suppose you land a role in a play called “Ferguson”, which is about the shooting and killing of Michael Brown by Police Officer Darren Wilson. Suppose the play consists of little other than a reading of the actual grand jury testimony taken after the shooting/killing took place – not embellished, just word for word what actually was...
Barack Obama favorite and eric holder fan, Loretta Lynch, has been confirmed by the United States Senate, and will be our new Attorney General. Based on the fact that, during her confirmation hearings, Ms. Lynch ducked question after question regarding how she would run the Justice Department, but was kind enough to tell us that illegal aliens have exactly the same rights to get jobs as...
