We know every little detail about Sarah Palin and Rick Perry. I just saw an article about the name of Rick Perry’s hunting camp which was changed and covered with paint over 25 years ago. Obama still remains a man of mystery.
Mark Steyn is excellent as usual, but he’s sounding increasingly angry and less than positive about our prospects of recovering from Obama.
I read a great article by Paul Ryan in yesterday’s (or maybe it was Friday’s) Wall Street Journal where he reviewed a book by a mega-statist who was criticizing the Constitution. Apparently the author is popular with the Bambi regime and Ryan said that the essence of our problem is that their whole vision of the function of government is completely opposite that of the FOunders.
I believe it is a problem of Democrats who just cannot admit when they are wrong.
Can you add me to your Mark Steyn Ping list?
Thanks.
My apologies to you, my FR friend. I made a feeble attempt at humor, and I missed the mark with you. My bad. Sorry.
There is NO “Fairness Doctrine.” It was invented by ex-Speaker of the House Dickie-Doo-Doo Gephardt from Missouri, when Newt took over as Speaker of the House. Poor Dickie-Doo-Doo, couldn’t handle the winner-take-all rules for House Chairmanships, so he tried to weasel some chairmanships, or Co-Chairmanships from Newt by inventing this silly “Fairness Doctrine.”
So I made my very poor attempt at humor invoking THEIR Doctrine (which doesn’t exist) against them.
My lesson to me: don’t try to make jokes when I might have to explain them later.
The FCC ‘Fairness Doctrine’ dates to 1949 under Truman and Reagan ended it.
Thanks for the Correction! My apologies to ALL for not being aware of that fact.
Looks like Dickie-Doo-Doo did the ALGORE shuffle and “re-invented THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE’ and then added his own definition to it.
I’ll try to do better next time.
There’s no doubt, on my part, that Rush is worried about something. He’s become very strident, of late.
