WOULD AMERICANS ELECT A FAT PRESIDENT?

May 17, 2013

0

It was revealed last week that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie got lap-band surgery in an effort to lose weight. He claims that it is simply a matter of health, and that he wants to ensure that he is around to see his kids grow up. But many political observers speculate that this might have […]

I AGREE WITH SARAH PALIN

March 23, 2013

7

Yeah, that’s not a sentence I ever expected to write, either. But this is one instance where my inner-Libertarian streak comes out. Last weekend, @ the annual Conservative Political Action Committee convention, Sarah Palin drank a Big Gulp from 7/11, and mocked New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, who attempted to enforce a municipal ban on […]

STAR-SPANGLED BEYONCE

January 25, 2013

2

So word came out a few days ago that Beyonce lip-synched the Star Spangled Banner @ the Presidential Inauguration on Monday. And, predictably, there’s the expected level of faux-outrage and indignation rearing its ugly head across the airwaves and, especially, the internet. I have to say that honestly don’t see what’s the big frakkin deal. […]

SOME FINAL THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION CYCLE

November 1, 2012

5

It’s hard to believe that in just 5 days, the U.S.A. will either have a new President, or know that we’ll have 4 more years of the current one. As I posted on my tumblr the other day, I’ve already cast my vote by mail, so there’s nothing left for me to do. People occasionally […]

KENNEDY AND THE CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS

October 21, 2012

0

US President John F. Kennedy meeting with Soviet President Nikita Khrushchev I just finished watching an episode of Commander In Chief: Inside The Oval Office on the Military Channel. This particular episode was about The Cuban Missile Crisis., and how President Kennedy dealt with it. It’s interesting that, these days, it seems like whenever people […]

THE FIRST DEBATE

October 9, 2012

0

Y’know, I made it a point to NOT watch the debate between President Obama and Governor Romney last week. It seemed like everyone who was on Facebook @ the time was watching it. My home page was deluged with updated posts, mostly with Obama supporters calling Romney a liar, during the whole thing. As it […]

MITT THE SO-CALLED “GAY BASHER”

September 9, 2012

1

So, I’ve posted my thoughts on Mitt Romney before, explaining why I don’t think his religious beliefs should be held against him or be an issue in this campaign. And now here we have another irrelevant distraction, in my opinion. I thought this was all done with months ago, but one of my Facebook friends […]

http://www.mittromney.com/ So, tomorrow (or today, depending on when I actually finish this) the Republican Presidential Primary season officially begins, as voters in Iowa hold caucuses to vote for whom they think the GOP nominee should be. Mitt Romney, who had a strong performance in the 2008 primaries, entered this race last year as the presumptive […]

FRANK MILLER IS A WANKER

November 16, 2011

0

This has been discussed ad nauseum across the net, but I just wanted to get my viewpoint down for the record. Last weekend, Rich Johnston reporter on Bleeding cool some of the comments from Frank Miller regarding the Occupy Wall Street Movement. Occupy Frank Miller Now, I’m already on record as saying that I don’t […]

OCCUPADO

October 31, 2011

1

What’s your opinion of the occupy movement & 99%? My biggest issue with it is that I’m not exactly sure what the ultimate goal of the so-called movement is. Some try to compare it to the Tea Party Movement, which I am no fan of, but @ least they had specific goals that they argued […]

RANDOM POLITICAL THOUGHTS

July 7, 2011

0

From today’s DAILY POST: If you started your own nation, what would be in your constitution? This brings up a topic that I’ve thinking about a lot recently, specifically about some of the things that I think are wrong with the current state of the American political system, and how I would change them. So […]

THE PRINCE’S BRIDE

February 20, 2011

I stopped @ Target store on my way to work ta few days ago, and I saw the above book on the shelves. They’re not even married yet, and you’ve already got a “bestselling” author writing books about them. This is something I’ve thought about for years, and came to mind again last week when […]

CHUCK DIXON ON THE REPEAL OF “DON’T ASK, DON’T TELL”

December 22, 2010

1

This guy was once my favorite comic-book writer, years ago when he was writing most of the various Batman books for DC and the Punisher books for Marvel. My first ATM debit card password was “CDIXON” (seriously). Well, I just found out that in response to the repeal of the U.S. Military’s Don’t Ask Don’t […]

DON’T CHANGE THE 14TH AMENDMENT

August 15, 2010

0

Section 1 of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution begins: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. Some Republican politicians (with the exceptions of John McCain and Mike Huckabee) want to remove that […]
