Remember that explanation of why President Obama would not meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he comes to the United States and addresses a joint session of congress? Remember that he said it would come too close to the Israeli elections, and he had a long-standing policy of not interfering in other countries\’ elections? Did you believe him? Do you still...
What a great day we had today!! Our grandson loved the intrepid. He was fascinated by the ship, the many planes on its flight deck, the fact that they could take off and land on that deck (with all of 250 feet to do so), he couldn\’t wait to get in the pilot\’s seat of every aircraft he was allowed on, and he was ecstatic about sitting, upside-down, in the Mercury space...
NBC apparently is starting a new show. Which I expect will be a mini series. Excerpted from David Bauder\’s article for the Associated Press: NBCNews has assigned the head of its own investigative unit to look intostatements that anchor Brian Williams made about his reporting inIraq a dozen years ago, an episode that\’s ballooned into a full-blowncredibility crisis for the...
If you read this blog, you certainly know my position on gay marriage. For those of you who don\’t, I consider it a matter of personal choice and personal freedom. My, your or anyone\’s sexual orientation is nobody\’s business but mine, yours or theirs. And if two people of the same sex want to commit themselves to marriage, I wish them nothing but...
Remember when Rosie O\’Donnell was referred to, by an adoring press as The Queen Of Nice? If so, you have an accurate memory. And also a good one, since that has not happened for a long time. Ever since she decided to subordinate her considerable entertainment talents for politics and gay activism, Ms. O\’Donnell\’s career has been in a tailspin. The latest...
The clock is ticking louder for Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber. First it was The Oregonian, Oregons largest newspaper – and long-time supporter of Kitzhaber – calling on him to resign. And now the Associated Press has taken it national. Excerpted from Jonathan J. Cooper\’s article: Oregon\’sgovernor is struggling to deal with allegations that his fiancee usedhis...
A quick note to the “Lost Tribe” (regular readers know who they are): As of now, Barack Obama will not be present for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\’s address to a joint session of congress in March. Nor will Vice President Joe Biden. Nor will many (I\’m suspecting most) members of the Congressional Black Caucus – led by Reps Lewis and Butterfield (so...
About a half hour ago I was driving on Bethany Road in Hazlet, NJ, toward a railroad crossing. The lights flashed and the wooden bars went down…and, for a moment, my mind flashed to that horrible tragedy in Valhalla, NY (just north of New York City) where a car had been hit by the bars as it was crossing the tracks….and, instead of continuing to safety, the driver got...
More lies by Brian Williams have turned up – this time about when he was reporting about Hurricane Katrina. Excerpted from John Simerman\’s article for the New Orleans Advocate: Williams\’ account of seeing a bodyfloat by in the French Quarter – which remained largely dry -and even a claim of catching dysentery from drinking Katrinafloodwaters have raised eyebrows...
Suppose it were President Bush. Suppose he met, secretly, with “leaders” of a religious group with branches responsible for killing people by the tens of thousands. Suppose he refused to say which “leaders” he met with or what they discussed. Do you think mainstream media would be all over it? Then explain most of mainstream media\’s virtual...
As noted in an earlier blog, yesterday, Oregon\’s largest newspaper – and a long-time supporter of Democrat Governor John Kitzhaber – called on him to resign. I just googled “John Kitzhaber Oregonian Resign”. And, on the first three pages, I found reports on this remarkable turn of events for the Washington Post, Fox, and CNN. I did not find...
This is not satire. It is Barack Obama, verbatim, at a prayer breakfast this morning: Froma school in Pakistan to the streets of Paris, we have seen violenceand terror perpetrated by those who profess to stand up for faith,their faith. Professed to stand up for Islam but, in fact, arebetraying it. We see ISIL, a brutal, vicious death cult that in thename of religion carries out unspeakable...
Do you know who John Kitzhaber is? If you live in Oregon you know him as Governor Kitzhaber. But, despite his assurances that he will not resign, that title may very soon be ex-Governor Kitzhaber. And, if the editorial board at The Oregonian – Oregon\’s largest newspaper – and one which not only has no ax to grind against Kitzhaber, but...
