Obamawatch 2008! Continues I am convinced that given the clean sweep of Saturday and Sunday’s caucuses and primaries of Washington, Louisiana, Nebraska and Maine that Hill’ry is you-know-whatting in her pants and it is the advice of The UNN to buy Immodium AD to stop this from happening. This will continue to occur in the […]
Read more "UNN to Hillary Clinton: Buy Immodium AD"Obamawatch 2008! continues In the days after the biggest national primaries that this country has ever seen, we, the Democrats still haven’t a frontrunner in our midst.

Read more "Why Are Blacks Identifying with a White Woman for the Presidency?"Don’t get me wrong, I like Sen.

Read more "I’ve Come Too Far Not To Throw My Rock!"This rarely happens, but this is in fact an article that stands alone and I have no extra commentary with which to support it. Steven Benen does an excellent job in stating his point. This was an email forward and I hope that those who read it pass it on to their friends and put this […]
Read more "Confronting Obama with a ‘Farrakhan Test’"I had to take my car to the dealership for the usual yearly maintenance today and this morning I heard the Roland S.
