I just saw a new ad taken out by the American Medical Association citing the number of medically uninsured people in the United States as “a tragedy.” How about the fact that we need medical insurance at all–I think that is the real tragedy. Let’s reform the system to protect physicians against frivolous lawsuits, re-think …

Study: False statements preceded war
…And are still being made. The “two non-profit organizations” named as participating in this study are actually composed of essentially the same people, and the “false statements” made are regarding things such as Iraq’s possession of weapons of mass destruction… which was the position of all major intelligence agencies at the time.A quote from the …
"Hey There, Joe Biden"
The boys at Red State Update have done it again!!
My Apologies…
I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to anyone (ANYONE???) who reads my blog, for endorsing Mike Huckabee earlier. Several apparently believable sources had advocated him, and there wasn’t much information available on the internet regarding the candidates (at least that I could find).

As I write this, I am sitting in a National Guard training facility assisting with the coordination of relief efforts for the huge winter storm currently engulfing Missouri (and the midwest in general). As I am surrounded by at least moderately rational and intelligent people, I have no compass regarding the current attitudes of the …
Remember, remember the 8th of December…Sorry, it just popped into my head. I didn’t even like that movie. Well, it’s been quite a week in the news. Nine people were shot to death in ANOTHER “gun-free zone”–this time while Christmas shopping at a mall in Nebraska. You know, this really seems like an issue that …
I have a candidate!
I have finally found a candidate that I can support. Mike Huckabee for President!

No actual sex took place; the assualt consisted of the male groping the female behind a bar AFTER she had flirted with him. And also, apparently, …
