TIME DOES FLY WHEN YOU’RE HAVING FUN

Yes, that’s right. I’m 60 years old today and need to change my blog’s sub-heading and eliminate the word “almost” to read “the musings of a 60-year old conservative woman on political, social and cultural life in America.” I figured such an occasion deserved an article so here I am – stuck, looking at my […]
More Political Correctness

Elmhurst College, outside of Chicago is, apparently, the first to ask prospective students about their sexual orientation. The questions are optional but why ask in the first place? Because students who identify themselves as part of the LGBT community may be eligible for “enrichment scholarships.” According to Elmhurst’s website, enrichment scholarships are those that have […]
Is It Any Wonder?
It Was Unpatriotic When GWB Did It, But When Obama Does It……
I hope the Republican Presidential candidate will use this videoclip over and over and over next year.

My first reaction, “here we go again.” Well, I don’t automatically start clicking around unless I know it’s a legitimate […]
LA Commissioner Claims Split Personality Made Him Do It
Los Angeles Commissioner Albert Abrams got caught with hundreds of images of child pornography on his computer. He claims he has a tumor on his spine which caused him to have a split personality. What seems suspect to me is that his so-called diagnosis came four days after the FBI confiscated his computer. Listen to […]
NO WORRIES, MR. PRESIDENT; DO IT WHEN YOU GET BACK

Well, I guess campaigning around in a big black bus in the Midwest for three days isn’t Mr. Obama’s idea of a vacation because he’s just arrived at Martha’s Vineyard for a “real” vacation.
