Today is the commemoration of the death of St. Thomas Becket, the martyred Archbishop of Canterbury. A learned and worldly man, Thomas was a close and trusted friend of King Henry. He was appointed by the king to a high office where he was expected to be loyal and take the king’s part against [...] Share on Facebook Singer Tori Amos fills us all in on her feelings about Sarah Palin and Barack Obama. From this SITE. AMOS MAKES PALIN PROMISE American singer TORI AMOS has vowed to run for office if former U.S. Vice President candidate SARAH PALIN ever tries to get elected again. Republican Palin’s role in the 2008 White House [...] Share on Facebook Mark Steyn offers a good explanation for the trouble with unleashing enemy combatants on the legal system – it leaves us more vulnerable to attack. There’s a difference between an alleged suspect (which is what he is is the President’s fantasy) and an enemy combatant (which is what he is in reality). If this were [...] Growing up, I could understand Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving – those Holidays had rather defined purposes and I enjoyed all three. New Year’s, on the other hand, I could never wrap my finger around. Essentially, celebrating the fact you have to buy a new calendar didn’t seem reason enough to stay up late and watch rather [...] The above is a photo of the Dec. 25 terrorist’s underwear bomb. It seems to me boxers would hidea bomb better. Pretty soon we’ll all be riding commando in the friendly skies. Share on Facebook Figure out the connection and Floyd will send you a cookie Insofar as it was able to alert everyone – INSTANTLY! – about how badly it had failed, that’s how it worked. That seems to sum up the views of DHS Secretary Janet “Don’t Call Me Reno” Napolitano. Yesterday, she famously said [...] Our man Rich has been johnny-on-the-spot regarding the junk science of climate change — or man-made global warming or whatever. This science has not been the only place for shenanigans of course. The largest area of junk science since alchemy has come from the broad amorphous field called the social sciences (so-called) including psychology, sociology [...] There is chaos in the streets of Tehran, as protesters gathered to condemn the oppressive, evil regime that runs Iran. And so, in the great tradition of American Presidents, Barack Hussein Obama – despite being on vacation in his alleged birthplace of Hawaii – stepped up to the plate to condemn the government that [...] I spent the Christmas weekend up at my sister’s house in Monroe, Connecticut. It’s a lovely town a little north of Bridgeport, and the first taste of real New England you get when you’re driving north from New York City. There are beautiful hills and woods, churches and gazebos, lovely leaves in the fall [...] Share on Facebook Behold the Tree of Life! If you aren’t familiar with the tree, it is the centerpiece of Disney’s Animal Kingdom, the latest of the entertainment giant’s theme parks in Orlando. Standing 145 feet tall, covered with 325 animal images, the Tree of Life (!) serves as the focal point – both figuratively and literarly [...] Big, dumb comedies? What’s so dumb about them? I never felt laughing – or a couple hours of escaping the doldrums of the grease and dust of manual labor – was too dumb. I noticed my taste for “dumb comedy” was higher depending on how bad I had it in my current job. If [...] If the Democrats dump cap-and-trade, it would be no surprise. The bill seemed doomed the minute it left the house – it has been sitting on the sidelines for months. Now it appears no action will be taken throughout 2010 given the struggling economy and the beating the Democrats have taken publicly over health care. [...] Share on Facebook Share on Facebook We’ve all heard by now of the attempted Christmas Day bombing of a Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit by a Nigerian Muslim claiming to be acting on behalf of al-Qaeda. What is emerging now is a terrorist who was a child of privilege who does not fit the cultural/ethnic profile. That’s because his [...] Hope everyone earned their post-Christmas hangover as much as I did.
