Holiday Classic with a fun twist
Sorry, Nemski, but I’m a little more traditional! [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdNc8TRLTnE[/youtube]
Religion and Politics
Remember the days when one wasn’t supposed to discuss Religion and Politics in polite society? Just like announcing how much you paid for something, it was considered tacky. I sorta miss those days. But, since the 1980s, not only has a person’s spiritual beliefs spilled into every social setting known to man, it has shaped […]
I’m so sick of him
God forbid Bush would focus on something as mundane as the economy in his final days. The outgoing Bush administration is planning to announce a broad new “right of conscience” rule permitting medical facilities, doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other healthcare workers to refuse to participate in any procedure they find morally objectionable, including abortion and […]
Window Dressing Isn’t Enough
Have Republicans found their Barack Obama in Bobby Jindal? Some seem to think so. After all, he’s young (37), not white (Indian), and smart (Rhodes Scholar). Surely that’s the new winning combination. And I guess this makes sense for a party who’s struggling to look past the surface. Youth is the new Republican buzz […]

Why aren’t you? Richard Korn is chatting with Delaware bloggers – Jason Scott, Mike Matthews, and Dana Garrett!
Consumer Panic/Insanity
And we were worried about a run on the banks. A Wal-Mart worker died after being trampled when hundreds of shoppers smashed through the doors of a Long Island store Friday morning, police and witnesses said. The 34-year-old worker, employed as an overnight stock clerk, tried to hold back the unruly crowds just after the Valley Stream store opened at 5 […]
What to Buy for the Conservative Man on your Christmas List
Do you struggle with gifts for the Conservative man in your family? I mean, how many Red sweaters, scarves, and socks does one guy need? Forget about Red. Why not move onto Red Hot? The new “Pretty In Mink” calendar is the perfect gift for the guy in your life who still believes Sarah Palin […]
Is this procedure covered?
After “Am I going to die?”, and sometimes even before, “Is this procedure covered?” has to be one of the most asked question of Doctors. And, frankly, I resent it. I resent the fact that Insurance companies have forced their way into my Doctor/Patient relationship. I resent that they have the ultimate veto power over […]

Can the Economy Hold On…
… Until Bush leaves office? Two months doesn’t seem like a long time until you realize that it’s only been two months since Lehman Brothers.
A Sign that Obama Plans to Act on Healthcare Immediately
Although it’s not official sources are reporting that Obama has chosen Tom Daschle as Secretary of Health and Human Services. After an earlier round of hand-wringing about whether President-elect Obama would push off health care reform out of fear of its economic and political costs, some experts and advocates in the field are increasingly optimistic […]
Busy Bush
While we all debate Obama’s cabinet decisions and the Dems inaction action towards Lieberman, Bush has been a very busy bee. Given his dismal approval rating and the fact that, given a choice, the American people would have voted to end his term beginning November 5th instead of waiting until January, you’d think he’d spend his […]
To bailout… or not
Once again I find myself seeing both sides of the auto industry bailout. Should we bail them out… or not? Convince me.
