  • “Affordable” healthcare

    Number of comments: 1

    It's open enrollment season for benefits at my employer. Every year I elect to set aside money in a healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA). Pre-tax money is taken out of my paycheck to fund this account that is used to pay for uncovered medical costs (co-pays, deductibles, etc.). In essence [...]

  • The Media Creation Officially Gets His Fascist Uniform

    And don't you just love the disgusting racist headline banner? Apparently the MSM not covering the speeches of minorities at the RNC Convention a couple months ago is solid proof there are no young, black, Hispanic, or female conservatives in the GOP. Hey, Newsweek and the rest of the' [...]

    I just haven't completely gotten my mind around this election. It was a very long election cycle, and I am not trusting what I am seeing/hearing from anyone. Yet, my week is far from over.

    My mother-in-law died over the weekend. My husband and I had our 36th wedding anniversary' [...]

    Number of comments: 3

    As Rayarena pointed out. Something just doesn't seem Kosher. How can FEWER people have voted for Romney than for McCain? How in the name of Sam Hill can Obama NOT have motivated more Republican voters to hit the polls?

    A superb post-mortem on our national suicide by Jeffrey Lord at The American Spectator:

    And so, another moderate fails.

    Governor Romney is a good person, a great business leader.

    Just in case anyone missed one of the most obvious consequences of Tuesday's colossal disaster, The Associated Press, spells it out:

    Obama’s win a relief for the Castro brothers, Hugo Chavez, and their supporters in Latin America

  • King of fools, Czech mate

    Number of comments: 9

    Back in April 2010, a quote attributed to a Czech newspaper, Prager Zeitung, began to circulate among conservatives. Search for this gem in the Prager Zeitung web site -- in German -- and you will come up with zero results.

    It makes no difference who wrote this.  Czech or not, it [...]
