The Lame Duck is really making an impact in his last days, isn’t he? A couple lines from this article that had me rolling with laughter, which I feel the need to share: “The Bush administration issued a regulation Friday exempting farms from reporting releases of hazardous air pollution from animal waste to federal, state and local authorities. The [...]

California has adopted the toughest emissions plan in the U.S. What about the rest of the nation? Um…. again, California has adopted the toughest emissions plan in the U.S. Some Republicans weren’t too keen on the added measures to the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. However, with enough time and therapy, they’ll get over it. [...]

I can’t say that I’m surprised, but I am highly irritated that the lame duck is spending his last days in office much in the same manner that he had with the rest of his eight years, fucking things up. On Thursday, President Bush “issued revised endangered species regulations Thursday to reduce the [...]

It was only a matter of time before baby Jesus crawled into the 21st century. In places like Wellington, Florida, the Baby Jesus is a bit more than meets the eye.

Gov. Blagojevich of Illinois was the latest politician to get arrested for political corruption yesterday. According to authorities, his practices have been under investigation for three years. After Obama was proclaimed winner, Gov. Blagojevich started looking at how he could make a bit of money off of his selection for President Elect Obama’s Senate seat. Apparently, [...]

Yep, and her name is Fran Drescher. She’s thrown her hat into the mix of people that Gov. Paterson gets to choose from once Hillary Clinton is confirmed as Secretary of State. Personally, I have no issue with Fran Drescher. Well, except her voice does bother me after awhile… sort of like Gilbert Gottfried. [...]

To continue with our little political soap, “The Big Three Seek Money” (It’s a working title), the Democrats in Congress and the White House were working on figuring out their 15 billion dollar bailout. Well, a 15 billion dollar bailout and a czar… a car czar. (Yep, regulation’s coming back!!) As things go with [...]

Over the past couple months, I’ve read on blogs and have heard on television that some people truly believe that President-Elect Obama is unable to meet the qualifications of holding the seat of President. So today, when I had heard that one guy from New Jersey submitted an emergency petition to the Supreme Court about [...]

As you have read and heard, the Big Three automakers were on Capitol Hill last week begging for even more money than what they were asking for just a few weeks ago. Two of the three did make their way to D.C. by car. I’d like to believe it’s because someone was reading my blog [...]

When I think of the holidays, I think of lights strung outside (I put mine up on Turkey Day), a fat dude in a red suit with a fake beard, who could have pedophiliac tendencies, taking pictures with children at the local mall, egg nog, and egg nog with booze. I also think about reindeer poop. Seriously, [...]

I’ve been reading news articles over the past couple days that have made mention that Caroline Kennedy is giving the Senate seat from New York serious consideration. As you know, Hillary Clinton must give up her seat in the Senate in order to serve as Secretary of State, which of course, leaves Gov. Paterson [...]

How could anyone hurt a little guy like this? This week, a border collie was frozen to the sidewalk in Sheboygan, Wisconson thanks to the neglect of the dog’s owner. The temperatures got down to 6 degrees. Apparently being frozen to the sidewalk wasn’t the dog’s only problem. He was also about 50 pounds overweight [...]

That is, if you are resident of Nevada. If you took a stab at it and guessed OJ, you are correct! Yep, thirteen years after he was acquitted for murder, OJ was sentenced to at least nine years in prison. He did make a lovely little emotional apology where he said he was sorry. However, I really [...]

According to this article, there are five top positions still waiting to be filled by Mr. Obama. So, I still have time. Granted, I do not want to be in charge of CIA or be the Director of National Intelligence. I am willing to look at Secretary of Energy… I would make all govt. vehicles run on [...]
