Now there’s a surprise.

Unclear on the Concept

Oklahoma! Every night my honey lamb and I rub ourselves with mace to keep us safe as bears breach the screen of our lanai [More]

From  my Oct. 2005 “The Bear Necessities” piece for Guns Magazine:

A Time for Eyes and Ears

19 children, 2 teachers killed in Texas elementary school shooting [More]

Giffords, the gun violence prevention organization led by former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, announced today that Senior Advisor David Chipman is leaving the organization after six years. [More]

Three and One

Damn Democrats never quit…

A Woman Scorned

I wonder if those edresses are spoofed or if Curtis and Sam really do work for Kayswell…

You Paid For It

Former St. Louis Health Commissioner Dr. Frederick Echols is taking over as the CEO of Cure Violence Global. Taxpayers in St. Louis City are spending millions of dollars on the program that’s supposed to curb violence. [More]

The trough-feeders just hop from tax cow-financed failure to tax cow-financed failure. Might as well flush it down the toilet as give it to the utter incompetent in the Peewee Herman costume…

Great Expectations

On May 22-28, 2022, ultimate control over America’s healthcare system, and hence its national sovereignty, will be delivered for a vote to the World Health Organization’s governing legislative body, the World Health Assembly (WHA). [More]
