It’s great to back in DC with a bunch of conservatives. Being out here has been absolutely amazing, and seeing the CPAC speakers were great but being able to see fellow gop3er Dan Suhr, Brent Gardner and the CRs at the Les Aspin Center is still a big highlight. Getting in on Thursday I spent [...]

(H/T: Matt Rossetto who posted this on FB from Politco) I’ve said before that conservative is the new gay in Hollywood. With all the crazy lefties involved in that town, either the sensible Hollywood Republicans come out and speak against Matt Damon, while others quietly stay in the political closet. And this list isn’t just [...]

But this time around the race was a blowout. With 96 percent of the precincts reporting at 10:55 p.m., Chambliss captured 57 percent to [...]

Those of you who are regular blog readers know that I donated to both Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney in the GOP primary for president. And so I’m very disappointed that Huckabee’s is directing concentrated fire at Romney’s VP chances when there are better battles to fight. Jonathan Martin from Politico reports: For the second [...]

Any pretense that Russia was simply reinforcing its peacekeeping mission or even protecting the ethnic Ossetians is long gone. This is a full-on invasion of an entire country, as Russian units move on the Georgian capital of T’Bilisi. I note my particular appreciation for the Georgia president, Mikheil Saakashvili.

The Brett Favre soap opera is finally over, with him ending on Broadway and Aaron Rodgers can sleep easy knowing that he’ll be the starting quarterback and Ted Thompson can now move the team forward.

Right now, Brett Favre is probably the only man in the world that is ‘readjusting’ his positions more often than Barak Obama. Every day it’s a new story or excuse on why Brett decided to hang it up or why he thinks he should play again. My personal opinion on the issue is Brett Favre [...]

I ate here once…ONCE. It was an unfortunate mistake that I can still remember. The orange chicken was near deadly. I didn’t even get through the whole thing before I realized the gravity of my mistake. The fact that the orange chicken close to what I imagine a cat tastes like was too much to [...]
