I’m pretty disheartened by all the to do going on over the airwaves and on the internet today. Seems Rush Limbaugh was in absolute GLEE that Chicago lost the Olympics, he said (paraphrasing here) that of course Chicago lost, because Obama is “an imbecile.” Over at my very favorite hate speech website, Fox Nation, the [...]

Why I support the Chicago Olympic bid
My brother Tommy posted recently on his blog why he hopes that the city of Chicago is awarded the 2016 Olympic Games. Among his reasons for supporting the games, he talked about benefits to the city’s infrastructure, the increase of revenue, a boost to the local job market, and of course, the “cool factor” of saying, [...]

Seriously, GleN Beck? Really?
I hate to beat a dead horse, but GleN Beck continues to fall slowly and surely into a downward spiral of irresponsible journalism and out-and-out ass wild crazy. This man is an embarrassment to my profession. GleN said today, Sept. 18, that his go-to fact checker is… Google. In addition to saying he checks his [...]

GleN Beck has lost his diddy mind
I’d like to start by saying that I don’t like the way Glenn Beck spells his name. I realize he did not choose the name.

Open the door and in rolls the hate
My husband and I often like to visit the website “Fox Nation.” It’s the site put up by Fox, apparently some sort of response to sites like News Hounds, where they basically put up blogs and opinion pieces as if they were actual news coverage and invite the public to comment on them. We like [...]

It’s over, and my God, it was worse than we thought!
Actual quote from Barack Obama to the children of America: “I expect great things from you.” See? He is demanding things of our children. The President of the United States just told my children that they must take responsibility for their own education. Indoctrination complete. I am going to take my children to get fitted for [...]

Stay in school? How dare you, Mr. President. How dare you.
I received an e-mail from the Superintendent of my son’s school district over the holiday weekend, which read in part: I am [writing] today to share how we are planning to handle the upcoming address to students that is scheduled to be delivered by President Obama on September 8. I have asked that staff follow our [...]

I have a girl crush on Contessa Brewer
Anyone who knows much about me knows that I am a liberal. I wouldn’t consider myself a bleeding heart liberal, but a liberal none the less. I have slight deviations from the Democratic party, I have in fact voted for a handful of Republicans in the past 17 years, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE WalMart, [...]
